Considering buying a dash cam anyway. Would that contribute to Russian-ness? 
Can I put that on a resumé? "Expected salary: $400k, I have a dashcam."

Sweet tip. Thanks.

While we're on the subject I recommend anything in Iceland if you value 
privacy. I think by now most of us have heard what happened to LavaBit.

So, years ago I created a "slice" at Slicehost to run my personal website and
have root on a box somewhere. A few years ago, Rackspace bought Slicehost and 
then about
a year ago my VM was moved into the Rackspace managed site. Which has been 
working fine.
In fact, my cost from slicehost to rackspace was cut in half because of the 
difference in
rackspace's pricing model. So, i went from $20/month to $11 or so.
But, that slice runs an older Gentoo and i can't seem to get it to upgrade with 
an emerge.
To much stuff fails, i fought it for a while but gave up.
Then I found this site:
https://www.digitalocean.com/pricing

For the same price i'm currently paying, $10/mo. I can triple my current specs. 
or for half the price, i can double my specs. So, for $10/mo. i've created a 
CentOS 6.4 "droplet". 1GBmem. 1 CPU, 30GB SSD Disk with 2TB transfer.
My current slice is 256m, 10gb, 1TB, 4xcpu.

So far so good. There are less OS choices than rackspace, but enough options.
If I build a new VM at rackspace, it would be $16/mo. Rackspace doesn't have 
the VM choice that
I currently have. 

If you're interested, please use this code:
