Oh absolutely. I still go back for the occasional check-in with my favorite small communities. But I basically never browse /r/all or any of the top subreddits that used to keep me coming back multiple times per day.
To be fair, both sites are pretty much gaping shit holes at this point.
Except they were generating zero revenue during the time they were closed. That is pretty close to a fine.
I do also think they should be fined for preventing a union from forming, but having them pay back wages would be more of a fine than most places would be fined because there are basically no penalties for this kind of behavior.
This is a good tool for visualizing your raid needs from your capacity and total number of drives.

I'll preface that I'm no raid expert, just a nerd that uses it occasionally.
The main benefit of most raid configurations is the redundancy they provide. If you lose one drive, you do not lose any data. It's kinda obvious how you can have 1:1 redundancy, you just have an exact copy of the drive. But there are ways to split data into three chunks so that you can rebuild the data from any two chunks, and 5 chunks so that you can loose and two chunks. Truly understand how raid does this could easily be an entire college course.
Raid 0 is the exception. All it does is "join together" a bunch of drives into one disk. And if you lose an individual disk you likely will lose most of your data.
Another big difference is read/write speed. From my understanding, every raid configuration is slower to read and write than if you were using a single drive. Each raid configuration is varying levels of slower than the "base speed"
I typically use raid 5 or 6, since that gives some redundancy, but I can keep most of my total storage space.
The main thing in all of this is to keep an eye on drive health. If you lose more drives than your array can handle, all of your data is gone. From my understanding, there is no easy way to get the data off a broken raid array.
He might be, but I still get unpleasant vibes from how he writes.
Yeah, I'd rather not if he talks like he writes. Again, I am fully on board with his message, but he writes like someone who doesn't know how to have a conversation with another person.
This writer seems like a proper neck beard. I 100% agree with most of what they say, but this feels like it's straight out of 4chann
Edit: I read a few other articles of his and watch a few of his videos/interviews. This article is an extreme side of him apparently. I still think he is extremely socially awkward, he can't hold eye contact for longer than a millisecond and struggles to answer questions in less than twenty words.
I do fully agree with almost everything I've heard him say. I just don't like the way he says it.
I've literally never heard GUI said as "gee ewe eye" before.
You could just say UI, avoids the gooey phobia and sounds less weird than g u i.
I think those make sense as deviations. I've heard "my sequel" but you're absolutely right about postgresql.
The name is kinda irrelevant like hard vs soft g in gif. People know what you mean when you say either.
But in that same vein, the creator of the "graphics interchange format" says the pronunciation is soft g, but basically everyone says hard g... So "official" pronunciation is kinda irrelevant.
I don't judge anyone who uses whichever term they want, but I've just noticed the general trend in my smallish interaction bubble.
The only people I know who actually call it ess queue ell are either too new to know the "sequel" pronunciation, or the type of person you generally smell before you see.
Just think that each one of those carts is at least one fewer person in line for checkout.
It was a bad pun on "parallel"
I'd guess it's beside the others.
I'd double check that language you need isn't already on iPhone. They've added pretty much every language spoken by at least 100k people.
iPhone is really the only choice for the computer/smartphone illiterate. You can't easily put the device in an unrecognizable state, you can't install a launcher that drastically changes the GUI from the app store. iPhone justifiably gets tons of shit, but this is the exact use case it's designed for. They also have really good accessibility features, and they actually work in apps.
Android has tons of benefits, and I've had only android for the last 14 years. I think if you are planning on removing the settings app all together, you know it's not a great choice for them.
I would personally bet a full paycheck that in two years, most of these trucks have hauled no more than like a few pieces of furniture, a couple 2x4s, and maybe some bags of potting soil or mulch.
Definitely justifies daily driving a 7000lb, bullet proof, pedestrian slicer.
If you cook 300 meals per year, you're not the primary demographic of McDonald's, at least for my local one. Most people I know who eat there, eat there very regularly.... Like multiple times per week.
I personally think it's that people lack the time, motivation, and/or knowledge to cook themselves. I can make a cheeseburger and fries at home for about $3-5 in about thirty minutes, including cleanup. Compared to a $15 meal, it's roughly the equivalent of saving $20/h.
Another issue could be home size is way down. If you live alone, you can't buy one hamburger bun, you have to buy 8. You can't buy a quarter pound of ground beef, minimum package size is usually 1 lb. If you buy the material to cook one meal, you're committing to cook three to seven more within the next 10 days. So you've signed up for leftovers or up to four hours of cooking.
A start could be reducing the crazy subsidies cattle farming gets. We could reduce carbon emissions and have money to fund green projects.
I picked the best time to get into stardew.
