Yep. Hooray for self hosting!

Unfortunately, for companies like this, that would be just another business expense to keep things running.

I think I’ve never flown with that airline and this here makes it very likely that I never will.

Don’t feed the trolls.

NVMe in a phone would be something ridiculously inefficient both because of the form factor and the power draw.

This can IMO be both good and bad. Good if they take the existing design, thicken the body to make it flush with the camera modules and put a larger battery in that space; bad if they use the existing design and make the cameras thinner so that there’s no bump.

But hey, we can’t talk much sense to manufacturers who are happy if we buy a new toy every year…

Imagine a case similar to what we had about the default web browser on Windows.

I don’t really care. It was I think the first instance I learned about (must’ve been the most popular at the time) and I applied for an account there, but by the time it got approved I had already started posting on lemmy.world, so here I am.

Same.

I have the equivalent of RAID 5 too, but mind the usual “RAID is not a backup” - if you deliberately delete something (or something goes wrong with an app managing your media), hardware redundancy won’t save you in any way; it only helps if the data is intact and you want to remedy a hardware failure.

I only back up my music collection because I put extra effort into organising and tagging everything, plus some of it is rips of CDs not available anywhere. As for movies and TV shows, I only back up configurations and catalogues of the relevant apps, the contents themselves are 1) too big to be feasible to back up and 2) 99% of the time available to re-download.

Wow, that’s pretty terrible. I can’t remember the last time I’ve seen data caps on home Internet (edit: there were some a while ago, but those were basically cellular-at-home for places that are hard to reach with copper or optic fibre); must’ve been early 2000s. Right now I get 600 Mbps d/400 Mbps u at home and 10 Mbps d/u cellular (no data cap) for a total of under 30 EUR/mo.
