   Consumer SSDs are trash for sustained writes since they get their top speeds from cache and use slower NAND. Enterprise SSDs tend to have better write endurance, and faster NAND. I have a small Ceph cluster and as an example when I first bo

   Protonmail has an import from gmail feature that worked well. Not that I practice inbox zero, so the amount of mail I had to transfer was very little. My wife's inbox is a disaster, sometimes I go in there to trim things down, but I ha

   This story broke the camels back for us when it first appeared here and got us to migrate our email to protonmail and a domain we bought.

   A lot of starvation is due to the kulaks burning the crops so the communists wouldn't seize their land. Also times are even more prosperous now and people are still starving.

   I think the difference is that gambling addictions are real and lotteries and other legal gambling is somewhat of a form of harm reduction by minimalizing externalities like organized crime. There is no recognized cryptocurrency addiction.

   Don't look at it as being your problem in 100 years, but as helping employment in 100 years and helping the economy ;)

   I think the same thing plagues medicine. Vaccines have been so successful in the developed world that we have forgotten the horror of diseases like smallpox and polio. I this success helped the rise of the anti-vax movement.

   And to further add, a lot of the major Red Hat backed projects switched to using Centos steam as the officially supported redhat lineage. Ceph and OpenStack Kolla are both good, major examples.

    I am not familiar at all with Backblaze's storage software, but I am fairly familiar with Ceph. You are not going to get 6Gbps out of a spinner. Maybe, 1.5 or 2, if it is a fairly fast drive and the data is all sequential. Plus I belie

    Not really IT's fault. Mainly management always wanting a neck to choke.

    You can fit 40TB in a tower no problem, however you have to remember to add disks for parity, and your backups should at least be a separate box. Doing it right adds up quick in terms of cost.

    After reading /r/sysadmin for years I have zero faith in the average user's ability to use such a device. The closest thing I have ever seen was some D-Link router that had the option for a DMZ

    At least it wasn't Nintendo in charge of the naming, then it would be New ZigBee.

    I've updated most of my home lab to AMD EPYC Rome processors. Really can't beat the core counts for private cloud and the price is amazing compared to Intel. Looking forward to Genoa myself, though moving past Rome will be a ways

    I think political assassination teens to make little sense most of the time. There is a sort of gentleperson's agreement to not do it, is someone breaks that then no one feels safe and leaders will be assassinating other leaders left a

    There is plenty of white box switches and routers you can load things like Vyos or cumulus Linux.

    My ISP in Ontario, Canada, has full ipv6 sorry for their cable customers, but tech support is clueless about it still. I had issues with ipv4 connectivity once and they struggled to understand that ipv6 was working perfectly and it was stri

    I use one VM per component. The overhead is pretty minimal and VMs I think are still more secure than containers. Maybe I am just a tech dinosaur though. I run my VMs on OpenStack for the networking flexibility, and use Ceph for block and f

    I too would like a tape drive. It's frustrating that tape is so cheap, yet the drives cost so much for home use.

    Good advice. We definitely model open communication between my spouse and I and we talk to her about her feelings a lot. We just want to give her another outlet and ear.

    Our little one is only 2 and a half, but once she is old enough to see a therapist (I think we have one nearby specializing in children as young as 3) we plan to take her at least once a year. Both my spouse and I have mental illnesses, and

    I had no idea he once stated he thinks he might have it. I've always presumed he had it based on his twitter posts. I have schizoaffective disorder, bipolar subtype, and his behaviour matches low-key bipolar very well.

    Personally I prefer Vyos, though it has been a long time since I used openWRT. Needs something separate for wifi, so there I use Ubiquity Unifi access points, though one could do that with oWRT I suppose.
