t mention Linode though

t last a few days of uptime
nubbins`: altho those guys living with the dread pirate roberts didn'
t know until after the fact
mircea_popescu: i don'
t think it'll be possible it not works the same way as prev one.
mircea_popescu: if it still won'
t work, at least it definitely won'
t work in a different way

t give away some kind of attack vector. but I don'
t know about these things.
deadweasel: didn'
t know if implementation was secret, or needed to be.
deadweasel: i don'
t think I would think about it that much.. which is why I don'
t need one quite yet. ;)
pankkake: security by obscurity doesn'
t work for long

t work out for burnside too well.

t even deflation, it's a scourge yet unnamed.

t much of a 2ndary market gouing or is there ?
