We're trying to send 28GB files though.

In this situation both points are on consumer fiber (AT&T). A 28 GB file takes roughly 1 hour to upload to G-Drive and 1-2 hours to download on the other side. Speeds caps out at 14 MB/s using most services like G-Drive, Dropbox, e

Aspera I have used for bigger TV / production work. The bill breaks the budgets for my freelance work.

rsync is extremely slow in my experience, and from client to server a great tool, complex to go from client to client machine.

Just don't think of it as something you'll ever want to restore unless the building burns down and you've lost everything. Glaciers restore costs had a lot of fees in my one experience. We could have bought several RAID unit

I'm tempted to buy one just to have a backup. I have no desire to own anything larger than the SE. But my current one is starting to show some wear and tear. I fear for its longevity. Apple has already refused to replace the battery a

Admittedly, I spent next to no real time investigating, but I did sign up and attempt to use it after some friends recommended it. There is no way any normal non-tech savvy person is going to go through that many hoops. I also couldn'

I've yet to see any stats from companies I work with that are heavily invested in Facebook who aren't just lying to themselves in meetings. The stats seem suspiciously off and their media content get almost zero interaction despi

Canon still reserves a lot of space for their C line cameras. They have been very hesitant to let their SLR / Mirrorless market creep into that realm. The 5d revolutionized video production, but they've always crippled their pho

Huge props to the Mozilla crew. Firefox has been an awesome browser and I'm thankful for their product. My only major gripe is video sort of sucks in it, especially when I'm on my laptop. I'm glad we're starting to see

As someone who lives in the outer bay area, pay for jobs hasn't really gone up at all in the last 8 years, but the tech industry has really pushed the cost of living up a lot. I can't say I've noticed a drop in pay outside of

I'm jealous. It's still incredibly slow for me. I assume it's an AT&T thing since I'm on wifi working from home. I am unable to use 1.1.1.1 with AT&T at all still. So I use Google's 8.8.8.8 until they fi

It's super slow for me. I'm on AT&T fiber at home. Which I can't even set my DNS to without taking everything down. But when using the Cloudfare app it appears to work, but it's 10+ seconds to load a page.

Cancelled my Comcast today. Price creep was the main reason, and it was just plain expensive for what it was. It was a liberating phone call though. I've been waiting for years to get out from under their cable/internet combo mad

Many of the numbers I've seen are more in line with impressions. The app loading and being somewhere in a timeline dramatically inflates their numbers. In reality, I know a lot of people who see little to no gain from Facebook as a pl

When you sit in meetings and hear the social media and sales people spit their numbers, and it defies all forms reality... Well, they look good to the company and the bosses eat up the voodoo science they are preaching. I've yet to eve

I've been doing a large amount of video production that is published to Facebook for the last few years. Mostly live, some post / uploaded work. But the live productions stats the morning after an event are extremely suspect. It

They're just reinforcing the demise of the platform. Over 80% of the last followers I picked up were bots. At least I'm assuming anyone who followers 4800 people can't be human.

The only thing Firefox feels behind on is video, at least that I notice in day to day operation. Chrome runs much more efficiently. When using Firefox my laptops fans spin up, battery life takes a hit, and it's overall more sluggish.

I think I have about about 20 Mac Mini's for various roles around my office. Probably the most used computers / servers in our entire environment. They're starting to show their age though. One by one they are being retired.

I'd happily go back to paying for MacOS if it meant a focus on stability and performance improvements. I waited in line for the Snow Leopard release and to date it was probably the best era of the Mac. I haven't even brought my of
