Quite the opposite. Use drives from as many different manufacturers as you can, especially when buying them at the same time. You want to avoid similar lifecycles and similar potential fabrication defects as much as possible, because those things increase the likelihood that they will fall close to each other - particularly with the stress of rebuilding the first one that failed.

Has someone asked what there IS to defend if not people’s lives?

The finance ministry of the world?

Technically, no, but then they need another source of revenue, because servers at that scale aren’t cheap.

As a drinker of both, I’ll have you know coffee a baked bean beverage, thank you very much.

Good. Maybe the envoy can explain the concept of freedom of expression to them. It’s going to come as rather a shock…

I instinctively opened rif this morning and it didn’t work. Maybe you haven’t got the final update yet.

Thank you for this post, I’ve already bookmarked the link and I think this is the most useful post I’ve read this year 💜

I just s suspected stone stick in the urinary canal two years ago. Damnnnnnn. First time I literally was sweating from the pain.

I pay a lot more attention to my water consumption since…

When everything that is possible has been ruled out, the only possible explanation is the impossible.

I say the place is inhabited by advanced sentients who managed to shield their home from the full force of an expanding sun. Let’s hope they don’t object too much to us watching them…

A bag of decent coffee and a set of refillable capsules…

Then it is long obsolete, because to a common observer, something like chatgpt could easily pass that test if it wasn’t instructed to clarify it is a machine at every turn.

Hmm… Wonder if the haters would avoid stalls with such stickers for fear of catching the gay…

Make it a denial of service attack!

This particular photo is shopped, but i think false-perspective Illusions might actually be a good path…

Shouldn’t have not pooped for three days.

People’s existence is not the subject of debate. Bugger off, troll.
