Actually Google AdWords says that you have an average of 40k searches per month for "bitcoin" in Nigeria and more than 1 mio. searches/month in the US.

I've used Firefox mobile with ublock for over a year and have just recently switched to Brave. Just give it a try - it's worth it!

Re:Dodging S3 Downtime with Nginx and HAProxy on Thursday March 02, 2017 @01:22AM (#13771944)
That's it. I'm running my own dedicated servers for my business and had zero (ZERO!) downtime in the last three years. How much downtime had the big cloud players?

That model is working for me too. In the beginning it might be hard, but now I'm making more than three times the money I could make in a normal job.

edit: And I only have to work two hours a day!

Re:Google nabs Apple as a cloud customer on Thursday March 17, 2016 @04:19AM (#11303121)
You just have to build high-availability into your software. I'm using six Hetzner servers for over 1.5 years now and the only problem I had was one disk failure - support needed 10 minutes to swap it. I can highly recommend them! I pay them ~200 euros per month for what would cost me 2.000+ dollars on aws...

HP Elitebook 8460p: i5 2.5 GHz, 16GB ram, 512GB ssd - bought refurbished for 500$ - best deal ever.

Lately I bought a book (python machine learning) from a local bookstore for 15$ less than on Amazon. Crazy - never happend before. To me it seems like Amazon is constantly losing competitiveness as they try to get more profitable.

Re:Double paid traffic on Monday November 30, 2015 @05:55AM (#10648779)
I'm hosting my server with Hetzner and using Cloudflare in front of my sites. So the connection for my site visitors looks like this: Hetzner => Cloudflare (local pop) => visitor. Works perfectly without paying for an additional uplink as the connection between Cloudflare and Hetzner is quite fast.

If Google Cloud would offer much cheaper outgoing traffic than AWS, I would switch immediately. 10 cent/GB is like modern highway robbery...
