(Quote) I would agree of we were talking some retail price dumping of one-time purchases, but what annoys me is the recurring price offers. I have no problem if retail dumps TV's for half price on BF, that's a one time deal and the profit/loss is ea…

(Quote) If you are selling shared hosting, that is basically the only way to make money. I recently signed up for lifetime shared hosting, 2GB space, unlimited emails/domain/bandwidth and free support, for the somewhat insane price of €9.99. Let tha…

(Quote) This! This is so true, and I'm glad someone finally mentions it. It always pisses me off when I pay 10-20$ a month for a VPS and I'm a loyal customer, and then the provider offers new customers a better VPS for 3-5$ a month with a bunch of p…

I visit occasionally, but the amount of time between visits keep growing. The design and layout just drives me crazy, I cant stand all the icons and 10 line signatures with colors and weird fonts. 90% of every page is pure crap.

(Quote) Seems to be the way they do business. I had a few *BSD VPS's at misshosting. The first two years they were like $30 a year, then all of a sudden they change their prices and now they were like $400 a year. They did however give me a free mon…

Miss Group is huge! Lately they've been on a shopping spree, especially in Scandinavia. Ballou, FS Data and Hemsida24 is (was?) among the biggest players on the Swedish market and they've all been bought by Miss Group. If you go to www.missgroup.com…

(Quote) I agree. The only way to get a community sourced db without to many false positives is if the project get massive spreading on the scale that thousands of reports of abuse still would not be enough to render a block. If you have millions of …

(Quote) Same here, and I have been actively looking for VPS's in Sweden for several years.

(Quote) The problem is not the cost of the hardware, its the cost of the transit. Hardware cost is a one time fee, while 100Gbps links are expensive and payed every month.

I don't really need a vps right now, but if I could adjust offers to better suit me, it would probably look a lot different then what you are used to. CPU and RAM can be adjusted depending on the task, flexibility there is already good on most offe…

I agree with above, it's junk. I could possibly imagine some marketing or promotion cases where one would use it for a website if you find a suitable name matching the tld, but I would never use it for mail or anything infrastructure. I strongly su…

It depends on what kind of software it is and where it is used. If I am to resell something I very much prefer if its my branding on the product, not someone elses. If it's internal use and never faces customers, I couldn't care less.

Being European I've been waiting for slabs to be available in LU to move to BuyVM, so the part about bad peering and transit in LU worries me. Cogent sucks in Europe so if they only use that it does not surprise me that it's bad, but according to th…

I would setup an extra vm and run FreeNAS or similar on it and share the storage from there via iscsi of nfs, depending on requirements.

(Quote) Use libpam-oath and Authy if that makes you feel better. Or whatever other app you feel comfortable with. https://www.g2.com/categories/multi-factor-authentication-mfa

(Quote) While I agree with the nice gesture part, I don't think anyone would want that to actually happen. Just imagine if every business that uses FOSS in any way would run a mirror. We would have millions of flaky ass mirrors running on old hardwa…

(Quote) Dashboards, plural. I have a lot. :smile: And sorry but no, I'd rather not. They contain lots of hostnames and other info that I prefer not to post on a public forum. But if you want to look at dashboards for inspiration there are thousands…

(Quote) I just use simple scripts, mostly sh but some perl and php, to collect the metrics I want. Its mostly just pingtimes and checks to see of a process is running or a service is responding on a certain port. Most of my checks are just a few lin…

(Quote) Google banned the Fortnite app the same day Apple did, on the same basis. Google takes exactly the same cut as Apple, with the same terms. Epic sued Google too, but for some reason media only focuses on the Apple lawsuit.
-
This was a well planned trap by Epic. Apple clearly states that in-app purchases has to go trough Apple Pay, so that they can take a 30% cut. However, there is a clause stating that goods and assets used outside of the app itself, does not have to …
