(Quote) You guys gotta learn how to let go =)
-
(Quote) I can confirm that there was something unusual yesterday late afternoon (EU time) with the US storage server: my Hetrix monitor kept reporting that my storage VPS was unreachable (up, then down, over an extended period of time); in addition,…

@RapToN Two quick questions: * Do you allow (publicly available) custom ISOs? * What control panel do you use?
-
(Quote) And to imagine that I thought that you were an OVH fanboy ;)

(Quote) He does have a LET account but he doesn't qualify there either (for a KVM from you)
-
(Quote) Learning how to read is a useful skill
-
(Quote) Yeah, I understand. I just wanted to point out that the 1024 plan is the best deal :)
-
(Quote) If there's a critique to be made of the pricing of the three offers above, it's that the pricing isn't linear: the second offer (for €2.50/m) is non-linearly the most attractively priced :)
-
(Quote) I think that your offers above are attractive and tempting to anyone who prefers monthly payments and intends to use their VPS for something other than idling. Furthermore, that you do daily backups is a plus that gives peace of mind.

(Quote) As I understand it, since Perl 6 was to break backward compatibility with Perl 5, there was no practical choice but to make it (effectively) a different product. Perl 7 will preserve backward compatibility with Perl 5, at least to a very lar…

(Quote) Okay, fair enough. (I was assuming that VMware was comparable to KVM as far as this survey was concerned.)
-
Yeah, just for clarity of comparison, I'd write: For SpectraIP: 2,50€ /month + EU VAT For netcup: 2,69€ /month + EU VAT (advertised price includes 19% German VAT) For Hetzner: 2,49€ /month + EU VAT And let me add: Aruba Cloud: 2,79€ /month + EU V…

(Quote) Although it may not address your precise question, the page "The Timeline of Perl and its Culture" is immensely informative: http://history.perl.org/PerlTimeline.html Perhaps closer to addressing your question, here are slides fro…

Soon we'll need PERL SELEKTER

(Quote) I also use nmh on a couple of servers (see above), but I prefer to use the Emacs interface =) (Quote) I've never used mmh, but it strikes me as a one-man show, whereas nmh at least has a few core developers! I'm a bit tempted to try out th…

The two main email clients that I use (depending on the server) are: * nmh (New Message Handler) with Emacs interface * Read Mail on Usermin

(Quote) Well, since the other forum is LET, it's to be expected. ("Why pay $40 when you can pay $4 on eBay?") Anyway, PC World is legitimate: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PC_World By the way, the Home edition is on sale for 29.99€ ( htt…

Like a number of you, I'm also interested in the similarities and differences between wikis, knowledge bases, and documentation. If one really wants a wiki, I would recommend going with dedicated wiki software. In this case, DokuWiki would be a goo…

(Quote) Another (less self-centered) criticism is that when a 20% tip is expected, the customer suspects that they're covering a part of the waiter or waitress's salary that the employer should be covering.
-
Traditional German-style cancellation conditions aren't for everyone, so precisely for this reason, it helps to be aware of them.
-
People, €2,79 /month (+ VAT) isn't the end of the world for a VPS with these specs that one actually uses. In fact, it's still a very good deal given the reliability of Aruba Cloud. It may be a little pricey for a VPS that one idles, but not for a V…

They look pretty attractive to me!

Just to add that Contabo themselves offer real dedicated servers at reasonable prices ( https://contabo.de/?show=server ), so they must feel that there's a market for "virtual dedicated servers", and I suspect that they're right.
