[19:01] Linode has renewed their sponsorship for 1 more yeat. [19:01] *year. [19:01] So we have 1 year and 4 months. [19:01] This will be the last year so we need to figure something out after that unless it changes. [19:01] valorie: yofel acheronuk tsimonq2 wxl [19:02] nice! [19:02] any reason not to believe they will continue doing this? [19:02] I'm off for the day at the cabin with my son -- his 41st bday [19:02] ahoneybun: \o/ [19:02] valorie: Happy birthday to him! [19:03] also: any interest in having canonical do the hosting? i know they take forever to get it set up but if you don't mind wordpress that's problem solved, ad infinitum [19:03] thanks! [19:03] valorie: that's how old i am :) [19:03] tell him happy bday [19:03] linode doesn't do the website [19:03] wxl: Hosting =/ VMs for developers to work with. [19:03] that's canonical [19:03] right [19:03] I will [19:04] it was quite a day (eventful home birth) I woke up dreaming about it [19:13] valorie: wait it's his bday! What! He's working today! [19:13] wxl: the support ticket I opened told me they do not do sponsorships anymore and will do it once more. [19:16] ahoneybun: bummer. [19:16] ahoneybun: maybe gandi? [19:16] wxl: O_o [19:16] Gandi does VPS services? [19:17] yep [19:17] TIL [19:17] OR... Digital Ocean? [19:17] yeah [19:17] I'd rather Digital Ocean because it's the next best thing imho. [19:20] tsimonq2: mm Linode is the best in my POV. [19:20] ahoneybun: Well, we can't get Linode anymore. :P [19:20] I mean, not after a year. [19:21] While the Linode folks are super cool, Digital Ocean also makes a less confusing interface. [19:26] I've never had an issue with their interface. [19:26] Have you ever done a side-by-side comparison with Digital Ocean? [19:27] I'm not saying there's a problem with Linode's interface; I'm saying that Digital Ocean does it a bit cleaner. [19:45] @ahoneybun different son. Paul's is today. Ok, good bye to call service [19:45] Call service? [19:50] @ahoneybun, Cell service [19:50] Reception [19:50] Ahh [20:04] ahoneybun: if I recall, that is precisely what linode told you last time :P [20:05] ahoneybun: thanks you for sorting that :) [20:18] Of course. Yes but we'll see how it goes but be ready for them to pull the rug from under us. [20:19] I was expecting the rug to vanish in 4 months, so this is bonus
