A friend of mine was commenting that Jaws got pushback for inciting fear of sharks / swimming with the low odds of getting bit by one, while The Birds didn’t get pushback in spite of the low odds of getting attacked by a bird. I opined that it was probably Big Beach instigating the pushback. I imagine with the tourism money they have a better lobby than Big Bird.

I use Digital Ocean at work, and it has been a much more polished and solid product for unmanaged VPS. That is where my site is now hosted.
