  • I wanted to encrypt against physical theft but then I realized that the server weighs 20kg and there’s more valuable and lighter stuff to steal. And a thief would never be able to mount the zfs array, they’ll just fence my $2000 server for $50 and someone else will sell it piece by piece on ebay. And between people who buys used drives online on ebay almost nobody is going to do a full surface scan of a 12tb drive in the hopes of finding valuable data.



  • I read a review with 3.8/5 rating on a e-reader review website:

    This means the device is essentially a hodgepodge of leftover parts glued together with some of the biggest bezels we’ve ever seen. The top tablet is pulled from the bottom of the bin, so it is maxed out at Android 10 and cannot be updated.

    Cons

    • Absolutely zero dual-screen applications
    • Old tablet and old e-reader screen
    • Stock Pen is terrible
    • Only Supports Android 10

    With a review like that they still give 3.8/5??? Sponsored much, huh? It should be 1/5





  • Microsoft claimed that Windows is compatible with 32gb drives but that’s not actually true. Those will get automatically filled by winsxs updates within a few hours. It’s impossibile to use one of those windows mini PC with a 32gb emmc unless you exclusively use it offline for typing with a word processor.

    All those $100 32gb emmc “computers” available on Amazon are just “direct to landfill” ewaste
