My thermostat is set to 17 degrees Celsius (62.6) Fahrenheit. 60 Fahrenheit is practically a comfortable day-long office temperature. It's a _long_ way from freezing.

If you're just using it as "dumb" storage, then ZFS gets you block-summing, so better data integrity guarantees - but in order to rely on that you need ECC RAM, which means a server-class CPU (and more $$$ for RAM). The Avoto

People don't tend to use parity RAID primarily for uptime, they do it because it's cheaper - HDD costs for a mirror/striped-mirror implementation are always 1/N, whereas with a RAID-6 it's 1-(2/N), or 1-(1&#x2F

IPv4.1 is a thing, and has been supported in the Linux kernel for some years. It basically adds on a extra octet to IPv4, giving you 40 bits of address space rather than 32. AFAIK this hasn't and will probably never make it out of expe

Yeah, kismet and/or airscan are pretty much the two go-to tools for wifi security auditing. Kali Linux (can run from a bootable live image) has these two plus a whole lot more useful tools for doing this kind of thing.

It's not really much more open. Similar to some other network hardware (e.g extreme networks) it runs linux for the management interface. The switching/routing ASICs that does the actual work are still proprietary. It allows for a

That doesn't take into account inflation. Presuming you do keep paying $350/month and not increasing that with inflation, that gives you $1,229,998.43 for 40 years. If you apply the same U.S inflation rate as seen from 1965 > 2

Yup. Distillation should remove any heavy metal elements. It's not ideal to consume long term, as it removes most useful minerals and results in a hydrogen-heavy/acidic water, but it's certainly far better than consuming lead

Depends on how you define scripting vs programming. I'd argue that you can "program" in a shell language; bash is Turing-complete after all. Whether doing so or not is a good idea is another question entirely..
