At the end of April, Patron Provider Crunchbits made a fun post on LowEndTalk:
This is a small LET charity drive supporting Direct Relief.
Donate $10 or more to Direct Relief, prove it, and you will get some hot-and-ready limited Crunchbits merch.
In exchange for a small donation to Direct Relief – a charity that provides disaster relief and humanitarian medical resources – Crunchbits offered to send participating community members a sweet Fumo doll and Crunchbits hoodie! And mine has arrived:
Awesome!
Back in September, Crunchbits joined Synteq Digital. If you haven’t tried Crunchbits/Synteq, they offer a cool dial-your-own VPS product, where you can specify CPU, RAM, storage, bandwidth, and IPs exactly as you like. Use their sliders to create your dream VPS in Spokane (WA), Dallas (TX), Valley Forge (PA), or Sofia (Bulgaria) and see exactly what the monthly cost will be before you subscribe.
These kinds of cool community events are a big part of the reason I love LowEndTalk. If you’re not a member, join today (it’s free!) and start participating in the best hosting discussion forum in the solar system!
