Even with enterprise level Samsung drives, the cost per drive is almost half that! Just crazy. And the only version that ssd's a make difference for are very underpowered for what you would have to pay for the ssds. It's a complete joke. I have 6 8tb evos in my ds620+slim and it cost nearly half that as well. Just terrible decision for a company who can be replaced. Their spinning hdds are somewhat more reasonable but I have specific brands I like and that they don't use(I've had too many seagates go bad on me early).

Big Adobe energy here without the monopoly to really work for them.

Run a ton of SDR IQ data streams at full bandwidth to a remote datacenter for processing.

Yes, I wish they would be more specific especially as 5G becomes more of a Swiss Army Knife kind of a spec with tons of different features. C-band is just a small part of it.

I think most of the time devices are like this anyways. They are build on some kind of linux subsystem host with some proprietary hardware running GPS daughtercards or modules. I am guessing FB wanted some specific security that the major manufacturers didn't want to provide (are there any devices with LDAP integration and without shitty wide-open telnet access? I'm a little out of the loop here). So, they took the important bits, put it on a PCI card, and now they can use any host that can provide whatever functionality they want.

According to the CNN write-up of the directive (https://www.cnn.com/2020/09/18/tech/tiktok-download-commerce/index.html), any and all internet traffic containing WeChat data will be illegal. I wonder how they plan to enforce that, exactly, and who it would be enforced against. A lot of Chinese Americans apparently use WeChat to stay in touch with their families in China. This could be turn to sinophobic ends pretty easily, via selective enforcement.

The executive order also prevents TikTok from applying security updates, which sounds like the kind of thing worm writers love to hear... But, eventually, TikTok traffic becomes illegal on November 12th, unless Oracle can make Trump happy. Again, how that would be enforced -- and how selectively it will be enforced -- is concerning.

I'd argue that if your kids can figure out how to boot Linux off a thumb drive, they're mature enough to not need a filtered internet. ;)

Are all filters created by clever algorithms nowadays? HTML5 doesn't allow the META tags for PICS-label content ratings... So I'm guessing nobody actually content-rates their websites anymore, they just let other companies' algorithms label them?

I tried looking my name .dev and for day 1 purchase they want $12,500 for the registration. No thanks!

Why wouldn't the military just turn their encryption keys back on so that they can use it but others get worse data? I do agree that teaching your officers celestial navigation is important, but when shit hits the fan, it will be interesting to see which ones actually retain it and can use it without constant practice.

OEIS is great. I started working on a project and was able to find some other work done on the same sequence(s)... ,3,5,9,7,15,11,27,... -- my project concerns representing the positive integers in terms of their prime factorization and then examining the properties of various operations on this representation. =)

I'd suggest reading some David Lewis and Saul Kripke. This topic of who is the real "you" has been elaborated upon in fantastic detail :)

I'm surprised 2girls1cup has yet to be mentioned. How about meme recycling?; )

I wonder how many metabolic studies have been done on male-to-female transsexuals. If you start with a dmab with a small frame, you don't have to discard much muscle tissue nor gain much body fat to reach a more efficient metabolic ratio. Plus, you don't have to worry about a menstrual cycle (emotional but also physical competitors) and gynecological health. You can tweak hormonal balance to control muscle mass, so that if you expect to need more heft in a few months,you can engineer just that!
(This isn't a troll, btw, if there's any doubt in anyone's mind)
