I never claimed that ads aren’t annoying just that it’s bizarre to compare it to sexual harassment.

Ads are annoying I give you that.

Similar violation? How in the actual fuck is watching a few ads in anyway whatsoever even close to what you described?

Why would anyone put up with the attack that is advertising?

It’s quite simple because not think the exact way you do and have the same priorities.

Deny

And do that multiple times?

There aren’t any “gotchas” they absolutely lose money us who store more than a few TB but its worth it considering that we are in the minority.

Someone from BB posted a graph showing the distribution of data usage over all users and the VAST majority are under 1-2 TB

Restoring data is free from backblaze.

Thats Stellaris

Thats honesty pretty clever.

I use a wildcard domain (with simplelogin which makes it easier to use). All the emails are sent to my normal email and it works great.

I have never heard of spammers spamming an entire domain like that. They are not human operated anyways.

So lets paint the earth white to increase its albedo instead.

I have an LCD near launch edition and is it really about brightness? I don’t want OLED because the LCD is dim (which it can be outside or in sunlight), but because the LCD is pretty mediocre or possibly even bad. The OLED is supposed to be pretty damn good colour wise. It’s also bigger which is nice.

It’s actually not really a “shortcut” it’s just an environmental variable.

A switched network does come with the disadvantage of needing switches and since you need high bandwidth and optimally a Ceph storage network completely physically separated from everything else it can be quite an expense. It’s very neat though 😀

I have just set so that I need a digital ID to use the card for digital purchases.

Why?

It works perfectly well for me.

If you do want to use Ceph you could probably use NICs with multiple ports per NIC.

Additionally you could use switches instead of a fully mesh system.

Full mesh is pretty neat but gets overwhelming very quickly if you have many nodes. With switching you only need two ports per node for your Ceph network.

You would have to get a credit card though.

I don’t have one and I don’t want one. A debit card is good enough for me and those are possible and common to get before you turn 18.

I also imagine it’s easier for kids to get their parents to enter their credit card details compared to an ID card without asking questions.

That possibly happened for the same reason it happened to steam a few years ago. Tom Scott explains it pretty well: https://youtu.be/dkSslseq9Y8
