I'd say you pin can pin it down mostly to those reasons: * Do you have active snapshots (vssadmin list shadows)? Halves random writes to disk in the worst case. * Do you have USN journaling enabled (fsutil usn queryjournal c:)? Adds ex

My fear is that this gives the EU commision a justified target (US tech companies) when they look for something to bargain with once Trump fires first shots at EU (German) car companies (which he will). A EU directive could look something l

I think there are plans for send/receive of encrypted ZFS datasets, which would be really useful for offsite-backup to untrusted (or less trusted) storage. I know it will be a while till you get around to implementing send/receive

And because they were dogfooding Exchange server they ended up fixing several bugs: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/exchange/2004/04/08/me-t... A net plus for Microsoft, I would say.

And it seems to store each file as one object. This should lead to a lot of overhead and additional costs (for e.g. S3 API requests) with a lot of small files.

Maybe you could point us to a similar (succinct) description of the involved cryptography? This one e.g. https://eprint.iacr.org/2015/1098.pdf ?

Yes, how the amounts paid are kept anonymous is particularily interesting: https://people.xiph.org/~greg/confidential_values.txt The involved parties are kept anonymous by enforced mixing, I think.

Sure, no one needs that source code anyway because they are not adding anything of value. But if they are not complying the GPL license they are legally not allowed to use the GPL projects. As an example for their relationship with upstream

This looks just like their GPL source drop location. No build instructions, no readme etc. This thread seems to confirm this notion: https://forum.synology.com/enu/viewtopic.php?t=120535 Here is the one for Thecus: ht

I cannot find the source code of DSM. Are you sure it is Open Source? If it isn't Open Source this is off-topic since there is a large number of other commercial NAS OS e.g. Thecus, SoftNAS, QNAP, Napp-It... Most of them tend to have a

I guess it reboots to Windows 10, but keeps the old installation in "C:\Windows.old". If you then do not agree to the EULA in the Windows 10 setup wizard it rolls back to your old Windows installation. Definitely a dark pattern, b
