I have a Linode VPS that is fantastically reliable. It's showing no downtime or problems during this DDOS. They've been great to deal with.

Interesting. We run our entire company on (paid) Hipchat across a wide range of timezones and have very few problems.

How on earth does Vine need all those people with inflated job titles to deliver tiny videos over the internet?

Press the volume once, the display has an options "cog" on the right, tapping that shows all the volumes on the device and you can set them to your heart's content.

So you can tell them in person that you don't live in the same country or work in even vaguely the same area rather than ignoring them as you do now?

They haven't managed to integrate Skype into anything else, it's a complete shemozzle. Why would they suddenly manage to integrate it into LinkedIn?

No mention of the PET, which predated the VIC-20. Surely it would have shown in the sales numbers at the early end of the chart.

"paper checks"... wow. You guys still have those? I found a book of them when I moved house recently, unused, from 10 years ago. Don't miss them even slightly.

Not true, it's riddled with bugs. Here's just the ones I've noticed today: - Install and start it on Windows 10 and the initial Atlassian login screen doesn't work (it pops a browser window over the top that doesn't

I set this to "intense focus" and the result is almost exactly the same as the opening track to Tangerine Dream's 1983 album Hyperborea, "No Man's Land". Funnily enough, I've always found that an amazing a

Which satellite would it talk back to? There's no coverage over that part of the Southern ocean. It's ridiculously remote and nobody is out there.

Lektor looks really cool. For the life of me I don't understand why it's only in Python 2.7 though.

What does Google not do? In our family of 4 everyone has their own calendar and there are a couple of other shared ones that we can all see, and it works great.

So much this. The only time I've ever been tricked into installing malware, ever, was from directly following a howto on installing a mod.

According to this account (which appears to include case numbers), these cases happened in 1949 and were indeed from Nigeria, not from within the US. http://text-message.blogs.archives.gov/2015/07/28/history-r

I started checking SPF records on my mail server. All spam that makes it through the other checks also has correct SPF records. Presumably if spammers control DNS for a bunch of crappy domains they can dynamically add the zombie machines to

If you search on trademe.co.nz (biggest auction site in NZ) in the book section there are several copies of all the books available cheap. I was an 80's kid and the Fun Way books and associated kits were definitely one of the ways I go

Theoretically, yes. In practice there's been things like Dell having to issue 130W power adapters because the 95W ones weren't powerful enough. The XPS 16 runs too hot and can't use max GPU and CPU at the same time without so

Thanks - I did try that but I haven't been able to come up with any combination of location and regional settings that works on this phone. Even setting it to US everything doesn't work.
