Do a search on aliexpress, you’ll get 10 for the $14 linked above
- Comment on A gel injected into the scrotum could be the next male contraceptive 10 months ago:
Vesectomy is the way if you know for sure that you never want children - they aren’t reversible like birth control are and shouldn’t really be considered reversible at all because there’s a very real risk of them not being so
- Comment on EU-funded report calls for wealth of super-rich to be taxed, not income 1 year ago:
Yea but notably property taxes pay for schools in the USA, council tax pays for roads, lights, bins etc
In the UK you don’t get to go to a better school just because your house costs more money
- Comment on EU-funded report calls for wealth of super-rich to be taxed, not income 1 year ago:
Council tax doesn’t pay for any of the things that property taxes do. The USA also has separate taxes for bin collection etc

I also think that’s crazy. In the UK we pay stamp duty, a one time tax when you buy property. It’s much more if it isn’t your primary residence

You can write shares to CIDR blocks e.g. 100.0.0.0/8
- Comment on Mounting Backblaze B2 - s3fs or rclone or GeeseFS? 1 year ago:
Oh I know, I had the same thoughts
Object storage does really bad as a filesystem and it may very seriously be cheaper for you to have a 5TB storage box over 2TB of object storage
S3 has no list operation, so any time the computer wants to “list” a directory in object storage that is expensive
- Comment on Mounting Backblaze B2 - s3fs or rclone or GeeseFS? 1 year ago:
I have a similar use case and whilst I’m not quite there yet I’m intending to go with a storage box
