Judge Dredd was also 'propaganda' as you call it; it was an example of facism taken to a ludicrous extreme. This same example was taken even FURTHER than ludicrous w/ Marshall Law.

Thats not to say that they don't have merits; Comics like Judge Dredd, Maus, Tank Girl, et al. were entertaining reads that had room to tell stories to make you think a little deeper about the world around you while appreciating tank girl's missile bra or the artists rendition of a fight through an automated slaughterhouse.

Of course you have the same thing with american comics; DC is/was basically greek mythology stories, while marvel's X-men was a direct reference to the civil rights movement at the time.

One of the problem modern filmmakers/writers have is thinking that comic books are a genre of media and not a medium itself; They aren't adapting comics properly anymore. Marvel was doing it right until Disney took them over and the Spiderman/Venom movies are still getting it right (mostly).

If the Supergirl's writer really only has one writing credit to her name and was given this opportunity I'm chalking this up to another DEI failure.

Data Storage

Kioxia and Dell Cram Nearly 10PB Into a Single 2U Server (nerds.xyz) 17

BrianFagioli writes: Kioxia and Dell Technologies say they have built a 2U server configuration capable of scaling to 9.8PB of flash storage, which is the sort of density that would have sounded impossible just a few years ago. The setup combines a Dell PowerEdge R7725xd Server with 40 Kioxia LC9 Series 245.76TB NVMe SSDs and AMD EPYC processors. According to Kioxia, matching the same capacity with more common 30.72TB SSDs would require seven additional servers and another 280 drives.

The companies are pitching the hardware squarely at AI and hyperscale workloads, where storage is rapidly becoming a bottleneck alongside compute. Kioxia claims the denser configuration can dramatically reduce power consumption and rack space requirements while remaining air cooled. The announcement also highlights how quickly enterprise storage capacities are escalating as organizations race to support larger AI models, massive datasets, and increasingly demanding data pipelines.
