- Comment on Is Backblaze a reliable provider? 4 months ago:
AWS has multiple teirs of storage options in s3, some replicate and some dont. by default those that do replicate do so in multiple availability zones, but not across regions. unless you turn on cross-region replication (CRR) which is an additional charge.
So, for example without CRR if your bucket is in us-east-1 and 1 availability zone goes down you can still access the data, but if all of us-east-1 is down, you cannot.

have you tried the rocm docker containers that amd makes for your needs? it pretty much makes installing rocm on the base OS unneeded for me. hub.docker.com/u/rocm github.com/ROCm/ROCm-docker
- Comment on Wi-Fi 7 to get the final seal of approval early next year, new standard is up to 4.8 times faster than Wi-Fi 6 11 months ago:
Are the 320mhz wide channels going to be actually usable in the real world though? wider channels increase chance of interference. That’s why nearly everyone recommends 80mhz wide channels on 5ghz even though 160mhz channels have been available for a while. You dont usually see speed increases in the real world with the 160mhz channels except in specific situations.

You wont want to disable 2.4 and 5GHz on wifi 7. The reason it gets so much higher speeds than 6e is that it can send data on all 3 spectrum simultaneously. If you turn off 2.4 and 5GHz you would essentially be limiting yourself to 1/2 speed.

wtf does this have to do with technology? it’s just some post on reddit making an unsubstantiated claim.

The sponsorskip extension already has the functionality to get around something like this.
- Comment on Discord will switch to temporary file links to block malware delivery 1 year ago:
unfortunately no, there are several communities where if i ask for some specific information, i am told to go onto the discord because there are guides and information there. specifically, i have noticed this a lot with mechanical keyboard communities, but i know it’s happening elsewhere too. I simply don’t understand it myself, trying to find something on these is like trying to find something in a twitch stream. it’s infuriating.

Someone should tell Elon that an unprofitable website and a non-profit website are not the same thing.
- Comment on Mathematician warns NSA may be weakening next-gen encryption 1 year ago:
From what it sounds like, he’s not saying the algorithm is compromised itself, but rather that NIST is recommending a weaker version of it as sufficiently safe at (possibly) the request of the NSA. If that is the case we would know for sure pretty quickly once DISA updates their STIGs for internal use to include quantum resistant encryption. If the STIGs say to use a stronger version than NIST recommends then he was probably right.
- Comment on YouTube isn't happy you're using ad blockers — and it's doing something about it 1 year ago:
I mean I get it and i don’t blame them for doing it, but it just makes googles claim of youtube premium being “ad free” insulting. Why would I give them money when they can’t even pay their content creators consistently enough, forcing them into alternative revenue systems?
- Comment on YouTube isn't happy you're using ad blockers — and it's doing something about it 1 year ago:
I consider it already not ad free considering how many video creators shove sponsored segments in all their videos.
- Comment on Pixel 8 leak promises 7 years of OS updates—even more than an iPhone 1 year ago:
yea obviously apple has been better in the past, one of the reasons i switched from pixel to iphone. however, whenever they have said X years of updates for a given device, they have kept it. it’s literally the only thing i would trust them on.
- Comment on Pixel 8 leak promises 7 years of OS updates—even more than an iPhone 1 year ago:
nothing to do with how long they update their phones operating system.
- Comment on Pixel 8 leak promises 7 years of OS updates—even more than an iPhone 1 year ago:
they have so far kept all promises about updating their pixel line.

- Comment on Plex Will Block Media Servers at Abuse Prevalent Hosting Company 1 year ago:
yes, they have a centralized login system. It’s my biggest issue with plex and why i am experimenting with switching to jellyfin.
- Comment on Unity bosses sold stock days before development fees announcement 1 year ago:
unfortunately there is a massive loophole that allows them to do this. what they do is set up sell orders at regular intervals (once a month or whatever) for months or years in advance. then when they decide they dont want to sell, they just cancel the order which is totally fine for them to do for some reason. if they do want to sell they just let the order execute and if anyone asks, they set it up a year ago and there is no possibility that the current decision could have influenced them into making that sell order a year ago.

it’s talking about the system requirements for installing the firmware, the headphones work fine without one.
- Comment on Are NUC hardware good for self hosting? 1 year ago:
depends on how many services you plan on running, i think the i3 would be sufficient for what you listed, the i5 would give you room to grow.
the i7’s usually aren’t worth it for servers since they are just a clock speed increase.
