Then I see why you need moar disks. But seriously, are you ever gonna watch 3000 movies and 500 TV series?
That’s about 25000 hours of content. If you watch 3 hours per day it will take you 23 years to watch it all.
Are you okay, brother?

My 14TB are almost full but I can’t fathom what you’d use 100TB on??

Sharing your creations without a central hoster profiting from it, I guess.

How can they still find new tombs, after literal centuries of digging?

- Comment on The most powerful laser in the US recently produced 2 quadrillion watts of power 2 weeks ago:
I have a decent grasp of physics but I understand nothing at all about this article. Melp me out, please?
What use is a high energy beam that last for an almost immeasurably short period of time? How can it even be said that it has this power output, in such a short time?
“Zero-POW!-zero” sounds unbelievable to normal humans. No ramp-up? No sizzling out?
On such a short time scale, what’s the actual Wh used? It can’t be very much, so the actual energy delivered can hardly do anything at all, either.
And finally, what’s even the point of this? What’s the purpose? What’s the end goal? Why?

- Comment on Today, The Document Foundation is releasing LibreOffice 24.8.7. Our goal is to offer citizens, businesses and governments from around the world quality and free software 3 weeks ago:
Exactly reversed of Excel. I wonder why the did that? I can’t imagine it’s not deliberate.
I know this is a tiny detail but you know how it’s like a tiny splinter you can’t pull out - not a big problem but an ongoing bother.

Ctrl-Enter to save a cell without leaving it? Ctrl-D so fill down? Double-click cell corner to fill down?

Is Calc still useless compared to Excel?

Average consumers are in a lose/lose situation. Choice is a privilege that not everyone can afford.

I absolutely agree with you. But where I live, Amazon is cheaper than any other sellers, online or stores. I hate it but I only have so much money to spend.

And then for convenience, add a shopping cart so it’s not a separate research step - congrats, you’ve invented Amazon.

- Comment on Windows 10 LTSC – the version that won't expire for years 1 month ago:
What would be the point? That’s just staying on Windows, with extra steps and lower performance.
- Comment on Windows 10 LTSC – the version that won't expire for years 1 month ago:
Just the name itself sounds like an an angsty teenage dream. Not really selling it there.

This was entertaining. Thank you.
- Comment on Is a Prusa Mini+ for $100 a good deal? 1 month ago:
The quality is whatever you print. The printer’s quality is stellar.
I always say that if you want to print stuff, buy Prusa. If you want to tinker with the printer, buy something else.
Prusa is the Mercedes of 3d - premium price for a premium experience. At 100$ for a Mini, I would not hesitate even if I already have one.

Notepad++ has a plugin that makes it the default even for things that would normally be go to Notepad.
- Comment on Florida’s New Social Media Bill Says the Quiet Part Out Loud and Demands an Encryption Backdoor 1 month ago:
Stupid, lazy, overworked, underskilled - it must have been easier to raise us who are adults now, pre Internet, than it is to raise our kids today. And I repeat, tech is not the solution.
- Comment on Florida’s New Social Media Bill Says the Quiet Part Out Loud and Demands an Encryption Backdoor 1 month ago:
Full encryption means privacy. From everyone. For everyone. Please explain to me why that should not be given to minors?
In my view, protecting children online is not inherently a tech problem. It’s a part of parenting.
- Comment on UK creating ‘murder prediction’ tool to identify people most likely to kill. 1 month ago:
US LEO are the real ones. In UK+EU they really aren’t murderous villains, many don’t even carry a gun.
And politicians don’t murder, they just fleece us.

I see what you did there 😄
- Comment on Recommend EU webhosting provider to replace DreamHost? 1 month ago:
I pay ~8€ per month at DreamHost, for many, many domains and databases and mailboxes. I worry that having to maintain a VPS myself is tedious and risky, and there’s no automatic backups, and there’s no tech support, and it can’t possibly be as cheap. I’m fine hosting some stuff at home, but for some things (like mailboxes) I want a real independent service I can trust.
- Comment on Recommend EU webhosting provider to replace DreamHost? 1 month ago:
I’m still a huge DH fan. It’s just that the latency from Europe is noticeable, and also there’s an increased risk that some self-proclaimed dicktator might do something stupid so I lose access to my account and my mailboxes. We’ve all read the horror stories of people suddenly being permabanned by Google and losing access to all their precious data. I’m trying to cover some scenarios here.
