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

[19:50] <ahoneybun> Ahh
[20:04] <acheronuk> ahoneybun: if I recall, that is precisely what linode told you last time :P
[20:05] <acheronuk> ahoneybun: thanks you for sorting that :)
[20:18] <ahoneybun> Of course. Yes but we'll see how it goes but be ready for them to pull the rug from under us.
[20:19] <acheronuk> I was expecting the rug to vanish in 4 months, so this is bonus
