I believe they upload a hash of one frame.

Not to mention that the vote was boycotted by Armenia, Estonia, Georgia, Latvia, Lithuania, and Moldova.

They were sooooo keen to return to the Russian embrace (/s).

Is it was so great, why did most of the conquered nations run west as fast as they could as soon as they could? Must have been because the USSR was so ‘progressive’.

Sounds like another reason not to use Chrome.

Isn’t this just more of what caused the problem in the first place? Namely, centralisation. If you store data locally and you lose a machine, that’s bad but not the end of the world. If you store it centrally and you lose the data, that’s catastrophic. Nassim Taleb nailed this stuff. Keep the downside limited, and the upside unlimited or as he says, “Don’t pick up pennies in front of a steamroller.”

Sorry, I don’t.

I saw some documentary that suggested that they used to chip straight through fossilized feathers and skin to get to the bones because they didn’t realise what they were.

It’s even better than that. It’s a computer’s version of a story describing how a computer wrote a story which was then front-paged by a computer.

Came here to say this.

I read somewhere that this can mean they think you might steal stuff.

Clickbait title. The graph looks pretty balanced actually.

Reminds me of Mathcad and Calca

There doesn’t seem to be any monolithic music culture at all anymore. Everyone has super customized spotify playlists.

I’ve noticed this too. In some ways it makes it harder to find new music.

Found the dev.

Firefox with containers for day to day use. Chrome for google docs. Safari for sites where I don’t want to have to go through the login process every time I open a page.

I bought a Synology NAS with 4 bays and set up Raid 6. This provides 2 drive failure protection. All files on my computer are automatically sync’d to the NAS via Synology’s self hosted cloud drive service. This provides the additional benefit of version history of files. The NAS is backed up to a single large drive on a regular basis. That drive is stored off site.

I got burned by WD’s secret SMR drives in my home NAS and they sucked! They were marketed as NAS drives, but the performance was abominable, the failed sector count grew steadily from day 1 and it felt like they failed 1 early. Once the whole sordid fiasco came to light I switched to Seagate CMR drives and everything has been mostly OK since then.
