Not defending them. But ill take their position for a second. I give x amount of work and expect you to finish it. And you do. But if that work takes you 2 hours and the rest of the day you do nothing it just means I can give you more work because 2 hours is just abysmal. So I wanna know about it.

12bil for steam? Nah man, its probably triple than that.

Ok but what are the sites? For science of course.

FTL, Rimworld.

I have about 5000 hours just on these two

I too stare at htop for hours

Boats. Lots and lots of tiny boats.

The fact that you can connect literally any device in the world to a windows machine and it just automagically works in a few seconds is something people don’t appreciate enough. Im sure microsoft put a lot of effort into that, and constantly is.

Let me plug this web cam to my linux daily driver. Oh wait, I need to check exactly what chip its running and if that specific version is supported on my specific distro and specific version. And then I find out yes it is supported but its still missing auto exposure compensation for some reason. And of course I have to install it first and all its dependencies from that specific repo im using.

Easy.

As a linux user and developer and someone who works with linux servers all day for 20 years.

Yes linux is complicated.

You do know its much safer and much more highly available to store it in a cloud rather than a piece of plastic, right? In a cloud you get it raided on multiple sites, etc… obv. Depends on how much you pay. Dont forget that CDs in their best of best conditions had a lifetime of merely 10 years. Dont know how much this new media holds with such density…

And you do own the data, read the contracts.

If you have like 1-2 petabytes of data to upload to amazaon, sure, they have that special truck you can use. Otherwise, 200tb, i think it would be faster to upload it rather than travel to their offices.

And dont forget its only going to get even faster. Whilst the media isnt going to get bigger at the same rate.

I think its still usless imo.

200TB, I can literally put this in a single S3 bucket.

Physical media in my opinion is outdated.

THE CUTLERY!

Maybe its time to let go

What.

Not even remotely related.

At least they are consistent

Me too! Im a dozen!

Color is so stupid. Who the fuck cares what color the video is. Couldve used this to actual good like pick three minor subjects from the video and ask me if im interested in more of those. That would be awesome. And I know they have that data.
