mus1cbox: did you see the post about php vulnerabilities?
i don't normally read slashdot these days... but the php thing is kind of scary.
AdChoices wants me to get an ARP VPS. :)
heh.
yea i did
not surprised
neither
but i like the visibility around it.
as one of the posters pointed out the big issue is that upgrading php versions breaks things.
so shared web hosts are reluctant to upgrade php versions and break peoples sites.
yea it's quite disgusting
how would you handle that? i'd like to say upgrade n fuck em, but it could also mean 2500 support calls at ~3 min each
i guess this is why i never got into web hosting. too much chance for customers needing support, bugs, hacks, etc
yeah i wouldn't advise using shared hosting /or/ providing it
 well if you must use wordpress etc use someone who will do updates/maintenance for it.
and expect to pay more than if you had a vps
fuck all that
can you imagine having customers paying $2/mo for 500GB of disk space and 10TB of 10Gbps bandwidth emailing and calling you for help with css then leaving bad reviews on the web?
yeh i wouldn't want to do it
i'm against cheap hostingf.
i think managed or vps.
all day son!
when i was checking archive.org about arp it looked like arp used to do web hosting
probably learned the hard way
i can't see anything now. i assume he realised the futility of it :)
ya fuck that
