The DOD gives this shit away (to our rural towns and cities) so they can consider it in use and order more from contractors, which gives more cash to the lobbyists and contractors. Rinse and repeat. It's very straightforward.
On MRAP front the military is getting rid of them for a good reason. They ordered the initial batch very quickly and ended up several different platforms [0]. None of them fit the bill perfectly and having several variants made logistics and vehicle operations difficult. They then did a real procurement program and ended up purchasing several thousand M-ATVs. The surplus MRAPs went into this law enforcement give away system [1].
I've been trying for days to get OwnCloud working properly with for my 30 person startup. I wish I could say it was going great but I'm a couple hours away from trying out DropBox for business.
I went with Ubuntu, 200GB EBS, M1X-large and the latest OwnCloud (6.0.1 stable)
Syncing has been brutal. We have a 100MB connection, and even the few test users I've put on it all are complaining of it not consistently syncing. Additionally there is no LAN Sync like Dropbox, so you're paying for all the bandwidth.
Since i't at somewhere between $250-300 for OwnCloud and it's been working so poorly, the $450/month for Dropbox isn't looking as bad.
It's a shame. There is good potential here, but as others mentioned the UI is really janky, and it doesn't consistently work as expected.
Have you considered the AeroFS (https://www.aerofs.com/pricing)? I have not used AeroFS, but it would be on my list to evaluate for your use case, especially if external storage is undesirable. Pricing seems in line with Dropbox for Business, although this does not take into account the cost of maintaining your own storage.
You can create multiple boards in trello, mixing personal and business. This means you can keep all of this stuff in the same system, but not have them appear in your Team's trello.
Isn't that way simpler? That's how i do it anyway.
This is something I would like to provide but whilst keeping it disconnected from a database. Integrating with google drive or the likes is what appeals to me most at the moment.
And to think I thought the Thunderbolt display was pricey at $1k. I love it, but I don't think I could possible realize (or notice) the increase in capability unless working heavily in graphics and video, and that's assuming that the machine attached to it has a card that takes advantage of it.
Agree completely. I can tell this was made with UnBounce, and i could duplicate it in roughly 6 minutes.
If you have an idea worth testing, it's probably worth spending 5-10 hours on the test, assuming you want to receive decision making data.
I would expect any landing page like this to "prove" the idea was terrible, when it in fact could have legs. I for one would like a salsa of the month club.
This is impossible. It never dropped to $6 after hitting $36. In fact, it never dropped below $30 after that point (March 2013). Did you mean $32 (June 2011)? That would be possible, but also extremely poor timing, as it was only at such a price for about 24 hours. With something as volatile as bitcoin, dollar cost averaging is your friend.
Bitcoincharts.com says the high was 31.91, for a few short hours. Either the parent comment has ridiculously bad timing and less than 20 months of patience, or is trolling us.
* Hot list (validated. would like to spend more time on it)
* Dead pool (didn't pass validation, or interests/resources/priorities shifted)
My deadpool list will be turned into an interesting book one day. Most likely one of those funny single page story books that are bought for bathroom reading.
Yuck. That's disappointing. It's only a matter of time before MT is inundated with GoDaddy's garbage.
Moving all my domains off GoDaddy was a pain, but not being plastered with 90 sub-offers on my way to checkout is bliss. They have zero respect for customers and are just generally shady in every aspect of business.
