[12:50] ChinnoDog: you snag one of those $35 cloud servers at cloudatcost.com? im just checking it out now. [12:51] for $35 one time fee, i might just have to grab one for the theck of it. [12:52] even just for SSH and all that [12:53] very enticing idea [13:01] adom: no. I was considering one of the high end ones but idk anything about that site. What if they go belly up tomorrow? [14:27] yeah, was thinking about it...wouldn't be surprised if 6 or 18 months from now they *accidentally* got hacked and all emails, passwords (unhashed), credit card data, and server data was compromised and the company disappeared. [14:28] just seems like their only goal is gaining a wide user base and not making nay profit. [14:29] its likely just a reseller with a private rack somewhere charging to host VPSs for customers, we have plenty of those here, but those prices are sketchy as hell. [14:37] They use someone else's equipment I think [14:37] I doubt they have any of their own equipment [14:37] I mean.. I could do that [14:37] (Maybe I should) [14:47] On the plus side the AUP does not have an IRC restriction [15:26] adom: http://forums.redflagdeals.com/new-provider-cloudatcost-com-cheap-vps-1-month-first-10000-servers-1392062/2/#post17553730 [15:29] I'm not entirely sure how to interpret it but what I get from it is that they are super cheap because they built /everything/, which is probably convenient to do in Canada, a land of large open spaces [19:54] i might just buy one of the $35 ones just to have for IRC or something if i ever stop using Blinkenshell. or maybe just put a lightweight server on it (landing page, Vent server, etc)...but I'm using paypal for payment and I'm using a password I've never used before jsut for that site. [19:54] ChinnoDog: ^ [20:34] I want to buy the high end one. lol [20:35] I would replace my dedicated box with it [20:36] I pay $25/mo for my current server so even if I paid the $140 one-time fee it would pay for itself in 6 months [21:01] adom: I bought a few [21:01] * marcoceppi shrug [21:01] "a few"? [21:03] I am still trying to convince myself to go for it [21:29] ok, I did it. I hope this was a sound purchasing decision.
