I cannot afford to have a personal server and business broadband internet. Plus, I own 4 domains, and use Google Apps accounts for all 4. I've seen what Google's official stance is, as well as Microsoft's and Yahoo's, plus GMX, Hotpop, and several other email providers that I have used in the past. I'm not trying to be a private person - I'm very public in all of my personas, and a google search on me is a good thing IMO.
Besides, even forums like this are publicly searchable thanks to googlebots, yahoobot, bingbots, etc.
One day when I can afford my own setup, I may go about imlementing it - but for now, I have to rely on what I can truly afford.
Setting Extra Attributes for Anoraks
My server costs me around 9 € a month (might be 10 US-$ or something?).johngalt wrote:I cannot afford to have a personal server and business broadband internet.
I'd assume it is not really much compared to the possibilities it grants you.

lol - nice pic.
However, I just graduated with my Masters degree and I am currently unemployed, except for random side projects (design and computer maintenance - small business I have been running for 15+ years that barely makes any real tangible income but keeps me playing around with computers).
I recently had to cut off my NetFlix account and my MediaFire Pro account because of lack of income. Right now even $1 / month is too much to afford.
If I remain jobless for much longer, I'll have to find new ways to save money - like going without cell or home internet....

Was only a few months late when I started GPU mining.
Shortly after, the GPU mining ship finally sank, I was floating among a dozen Radeon R9 290's which haven't paid for the investment expenses.

Radeon? <Snort> All the kewl kids know that if it don't start with N and have GTX in the name, it's just not a proper card! Besides, you're supposed to be using your folding power for the good of all mankind, not silly personal gain. Santa looks kindly upon those sorts of endeavours - and even he knows a Radeon couldn't power Pac-Man, never mind cure cancer or make you wealthy. ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
