  • You do have to wonder how HM managed to keep things running so well, now DynamicHosting doesn't appear competent at all. Everything HM has is OVH as far as I recall so not like there is any significant change or issue with colo. By the sound of it, they are not monitoring things closely at all.
  • Like most things, all languages are rules-based. Why did I just hyphenate rules-based? Why am I capitalising the letter i? How do I choose from there, their, they're or they are? If you don't know the rules, reading a book won't improve grammar, it will simply increase the incorrect application of the rules when you write.…
  • Reading a book shows you, it does not teach you why. But carry on.
  • First of all, if you are going to say this, don't make so many mistakes in your own grammar. Other than that, not everyone is educated to a high level, grammar is a difficult skill for a lot of people. Grammarly should not be seen as a tool you use to ignore your own grammar mistakes. It should be used to identify regular…
  • Been using it for years, and never paid more than $50 for it. They are constantly running offers at the $50 mark. So anyone considering it, do not pay $150 or close to it. It is good though, keeps you right when you are typing long content at speed.
  • lol, that's all.
  • I got a $5 droplet in 2013, it's still $5 nearly 10 years later, they have increased the resource in that time, not the price. So from a financial point of view, it makes sense. In fact, you could say a price increase is long overdue. Can't see many customers having an issue with it. Their overall product offering is very…
  • I went down the NAS route about 15 months ago. https://lowendspirit.com/discussion/2537/nas-suggestions#latest Not saying it's best for you but I just found getting a set-up designed for the specific job in hand was way easier than having to self-build. Been very impressed with Synology NAS software, being able to mix…
  • Just copying for the comp claim later.
    in BuyVM downtime Comment by Lee April 2022
  • Decided to shake it up, not like me really but it's only a VPN, what can go wrong that would bother me? Nothing. Went for the lifetime on Stacksocial. Seems pretty decent and set up quickly on everyone's devices. Will see how it goes but so far perfectly good and very quick. If I get at least 2 years out of it at that…
  • I did get an offer from them, 5-year deal for $80 which seemed a decent deal.
  • Probably this. Take the cost out of it, is there any real reason not to use NordVPN? Doesn't appear to be. Is there anything better? A feature here and there but for my use case not really.
  • Indeed, I just need a simple solution for this type of activity. Not interested in setting up a VPS with Wireguard, too much effort, far fewer advantages than something like Nord for my use case. To be fair to NordVPN, it's always fast, has no connection issues, app for every device, up to 5 connections which means the…
  • Probably stick with Nord. I mean the worst offence it gets used for is that the kids use it to get around Netflix and watch US tv.
  • This sums up LES quite well. And that for many including myself is what makes it attractive as a place to visit and read. And that is why the more laid back approach vs the high traffic marketplace approach at LET is why providers will always gravitate back to LET after this blows over. If this was a forum that generated…
  • Correct. LES is its own place, kinda woken from slumber only as a by-product of activity at LET. Ultimately things will settle down as they always do. The buying traffic is over there and the majority of providers in the low-end segment can't afford to walk away from that.
  • The only thing LET was every good for was offers. Biloh knows it and that is why he wants everyone to pay for posting them. On one hand, I can't blame him on the other I hope it fails and seriously damages LET and its overall income streams. I know it won't though.
