Yes, according to this post: http://haydenjames.io/raspberry-pi-2-overclock/

Since Odesk/Elance merger there's been a flood of freelancers who bid a low as $3 per hour and very little for fixed price jobs. Seems the avg dollar amount for work has been dropping. I could be wrong. Anyone else noticing a trend?

I have worked on the writer side rather than the tech side but I have noticed some changes recently. I've seen 1)more obnoxious clients and postings and 2) fewer actual awards being made.

A penny or two a word used to be the bottom end, now that seems to be mid-range and some clients are demanding downwards of half a cent per word or less while at least pretending that they want high quality work.

Needless to say I've spent even less time on there than I used to.

Got this to work. But how do I make my home IP public so I can point a domain/website?
