Sometimes it depends on the servers. I'm pretty good at FPS's and found that weapons aren't really unbalanced and using the default weapon set you can do pretty well (I've mainly played only soldier). A recommended look at servers would be

SEO shouldn't be hurt (unless of course you are running the same site at both swomb.at and swombat.com), however with that said you won't get the seo boost that .com gives. Another thought: swomb.at could be considered worse than say swomba

It is probably against the TOS and if you get caught I can see your google account getting locked. Take a look at twilio ( http://www.twilio.com/pricing ) if you haven't already.

Open source for domains means nothing to me, what are you to domains? I have no way of linking open source in my mind to the concept of domains. I tried to look what OpenDomain was so I search and I find some business solutions .com which I

I think it probably depends on the distro, I've had quite a few systems break on Arch because I didn't read update warnings on the Arch Linux website after they had pushed a bad update. Tangentially that is why I moved to xubuntu from Arch,

Shared history can be either a burden or a godsend, I like it but I usually just end up using whatever basic bash shell I'm on without a custom config as most of the things I do are remote. The zsh autocorrect works much differently than wh

Maybe tarsnap? You can do a write only key on the server and backup that way then keep the read and delete key off of that and use that only if you need to restore/check backups. Depending on how much you are backing up it will probably be

Wordpress is fine so long as you have a decent host. (See not super shared hosting like godaddy dreamhost etc) The main thing you need to do is add caching to wordpress (both w3tc and supercache work fine) and if there is still a problem yo

Everyone gets to go through the oh no I've lost everything what am I supposed to do now. It is almost like a right of passage, most people assume it will never happen to them and once it does the lesson sticks in really well.
