A lot of wild speculation on very little data.

Are you serious? There are tons of data from almost 2 years of this virus running wild. I can understand you skepticism if it was only UK who came with statements like this but other countries are saying the exact same.

He was talking about the Omicron mutation specifically not COVID in general.

I know -- but they of course use historical data to predict the future spread of Omicron. Even if the data sample for Omicron seems small they have plenty of data points for this variant to compare it with how other variants have behaved in the past.

I was gonna use the PI as a network storage device, chaining 3 or 4 external usb hard drives to it via powered usb hub, and it worked and all but the PI is soooooo slow the transfer rate would dip down to 5K-10K/sec over LAN when trying to save a large file or copy a large file from it to desktop.

I think you are doing something wrong. I'm getting 8-9 MB/s using SMB shares on an external USB HDD (whcih also contains the root fs).

Don't use meaningful names! Instead use a number scheme. Call your servers Z000001, Z000002, etc. That way you don't have to change servername when the server changes function, location, etc. (if that's how you previously named your servers).

If you really need different names then create a DNS Alias/CName.
