(Quote) Yes, I know they have monitors in place, but it just says what is down, not why it is down or if anyone is working on it or even when they can expect it to be back online. Little things like that help reduce tickets. Ofcourse I understand th…

(Quote) Would you rather have someone incompetent answer your ticket just for the sake of answering or someone from their technical staff look into the issue and deal with the ticket? If you just want to hear "your call/ticket is important to u…

(Quote) The more the staff, the more the operating costs. So they cannot offer dirt cheap prices like they do if they hire more people or relocate to better datacenters. In short, you get what you paid for. If you want better service, it's best to a…

(Quote) x86 and x64 is said to have a lot of instruction overhead that they need to support instruction sets from all the way back to the 80s. ARM doesn't have it so it processes instructions faster. However as it is designed to be more energy effic…

(Quote) I have used both Oracle's ARM offering as well as cheap x86 CPUs like atom. ARM definitely wins there. If you compare Raspberry Pi, which runs on ARM with a Celeron x86 CPU, of course x86 wins there. So it comes down to exact CPU models &a…

(Quote) Yes, seems like the DB i am using also identifies your IP as mexico: https://ip2c.ziox.us/?ip=187.189.238.1 The source code is located here: https://github.com/somik123/IP-to-Country I am currently using the "lite" database from …

(Quote) That's what I did as well, just with PHP. Process the data before importing it into DB to make subsequent queries faster.

(Quote) Btw, i did it other way around. Guess should not be browsing LES first thing after waking up: WHERE startingIPLong <= searchIP AND endingIPLong >= searchIP
-
(Quote) Hope so! And hope they figure out it's a bug and not an abuse...
-
(Quote) LowEndBox's top provider? Sounds legit :lol: I mean anyone who has been on LES/LET has been burnt by LEB at least once!
-
(Quote) Convert the IP/subnet (CIDR) to a IP range containing the starting and ending IP. Convert the starting and ending IP to a "long" number. For PHP, you can use: function ipRange($cidr) { $range = array(); $cidr = explode('/',…

(Quote) It was done to reduce the number of abusers who, once banned, just creates a new account to get access again. It does cause problems for new members of the forum, but it is a necessary evil to ensure the service is not abused.
-
(Quote) @terrorgen NAME AND SHAME! The email you received is a very common one for two types of providers: 1. They are fishing for people who are willing to "pay" more to keep their services by saying "since you are abusing, pay up&q…

(Quote) Isn't masscan used for port scanning? Are you using it to scan for something else?
-
(Quote) I thought port scanning was frowned upon by most data-centers/hosts? Btw, what's MRT? 90% hit rate as in for IPs or returning correct geo-loc/country?
-
(Quote) You should put your yabs in "code blocks".

(Quote) SkyMach or VirSky?

I read that name very wrong... Was wondering why someone would say "ready" to their father... :lol:

(Quote) Lucky you do not have a nuisance fee cause in that case, he may need to pay extra on top of what he already paid :lol:
-
(Quote) I agree with you on that. But if you ask me, it is better to ignore those kinds of people as replying to them just encourages them. (Image)
-
(Quote) If you do not want people commenting on your post, do NOT comment in a open forum. Contact VirMach on their support page here instead and you'll not get other people commenting.
-
(Quote) If you start working, you'll have more worries. They'll require your ID as well as all of your certificates, both educational and professional. Data breach = all out in open.

(Quote) Try signing up with Webtropia in germany.

(Quote) Hey, it's on many sites cause it works. I mean I get you. I hate it too, specially when they auto expand with a chat message from a bot. Hate it more when every message from the bot makes a sound and you have to look for the background tab m…

(Quote) Well, those who aren't happy with a list made by people paid by those hosts can look around. I myself went with turnkeyinternet in late 2000s and the was the best decision I ever made.
-
(Quote) Eh... ok... good to know.... (Image)
-
(Quote) That's a private IP address, like 192.168.1.123 and cannot be used as public/external IP.
-
(Quote) Yes, in terms of common knowledge, paying for a service and getting downtime sucks. It specially hurts when people do not take your side and take other parties side. However, here is the thing. VirMach customers agreed to their shitty TOS be…

(Quote) Erm, you can get a motor AND 4 wheels for 500 dollars? Here in Singapore, just 2 wheels costs over 500 dollars...

(Quote) For one of the cloud providers, they called my phone and then sent a letter to my registered address to verify. My account was live after the phone verification, but I had to do the address verification within 30 days of signup to keep my ac…
