Yeah, we don’t trust their warranties; the manufacturers have repeatedly failed to honor their obligations even when drives die well within the manufacturer warranty.

My husband says that they follow a “bathtub” curve and they either die in the first 60 days or last about 2 years when they are scheduled to be replaced.
Further he says enterprise drives stopped having ECC in 2008; so they stopped having any reason to trust them more.
Yeah but S3 egress fees are a kick in the face if you need to recover.
Wasabi is also an option
Technically you can buy a 10TB Seagate EXOS for $114; so you could buy the disk storage even more frequently if you wanted.
But if you don’t want to host your own storage, you will have to pay the hosting company’s building rent, taxes, salaries for their staff and their executives bonuses.
Or you can build a Machine that is at a friend’s house and pay only the hardware costs and benefit your friend. You know, building community…

No monthly plan required

I believe the holocaust museum calls these sorts of lists the point of fight now or die one by one
The cost of them not having the source code or the right to repair the shit they bought and paid for with our tax dollars.
5·24 days agoDon’t have any games that require those. So never ran into that problem. But I can imagine there are potential games/apps people would want that can’t run on Linux. Windows VMs might be a solution but I don’t know as I never had to deal with that.
Steam, wine and dosbox with them, you can effectively play any game worth playing. Beyond that I never needed to know.

It happens, it’ll be fine. Just remember not to stress out too hard about it and it’ll be fine. The solar punk community knows how to survive a server outage in style.
The CPUID which is hardcoded in to cpu itself
