I've never had a loud refrigerator. However, my current refrigerator is an inverter refrigerator. It's particularly quiet, and seems to run 24/7 on a single lower power rather than on/off all the time.

Does AWS not already do full-disk encryption transparently on their side? If they do, I trust them to be good stewards of their keys. If not, then why not? I don't know about the enterprise part of the market, but I know consumer SSDs

We use cloud Jira, without any sort of crazy customization. This morning, I wanted to unsubscribe from a ticket. It took about 15 seconds to load the ticket page, and another 5 seconds to process the unsubscribe. I just tried again now, and
