RAID is not a backup, NAS is not a backup. Obviously there is no reason to backup readily available torrents but it doesn’t sound like you’re backing up at all. Self hosting data integrity is a much harder task than implied.

Do you off-site backup as well? I don’t have the kind of money necessary to self host an on network and an off-site backup of my data…

Money is always cheap for capitalists. Even the hardest of times is only hard for people without money.
- Comment on Gamers enraged at Ubisoft for injecting ads into the middle of video games 5 months ago:
The consumer is 90% to blame for the actions of an international corporation who have analyzed and manipulated their target demographic? If it were a relationship you’d be victim blaming. If I hit you for being stupid, is it your fault because you were stupid or is it my fault for thinking hitting you was a solution?

It’s a shame that Firefox is still heavily reliant on Google. It’s not chrome but we really do need some competition in this space that doesn’t feed the monster and is also not safari lol.

I don’t disagree. I disagree with the idea that it’s 90% the fault of the consumer.

Weird how I said nothing about my personal opinion on gun control and only said that the primary force stopping gun control was arms lobbying.
- Comment on Gamers enraged at Ubisoft for injecting ads into the middle of video games 5 months ago:
90% on consumers? I don’t know I’d go that far… If a company is evil but provides a service people still desire, that doesn’t make the evil company being evil the fault of the consumers. Like saying gun control in America is resisted primarily by its citizens when we are well aware that company lobbying is mostly at fault and most citizens are actually for some amount of gun control.

They do that in Canada. The US sells milk in plastic jugs or cardboard cartons.
- Comment on Tax time 5 months ago:
When you have a single income as an employee with no dependants or spouse, your taxes are dead simple. It’s when you have more things to consider that taxes get complex. If you own a small business on the side, have some kids, own a house, a wife, maybe you came into some money from an estate, also you did some contract work on 1099… That’s just normal people types of complex tax stuff. If your business does well, you can expect the adage “more money, more problems” to rear its ugly head.

Statistics of players being updated and new character models being added. Nothing that couldn’t be done in an update. Honestly most sports games should literally just be games as a service already.
