Step 1: Flee the country
Good luck doing that. It’s a bitch to live just about anywhere else you’d actually want to live without citizenship.
Nope. I don’t talk about myself like that.

Eh, in Trump’s case it was best to be running in autopilot… His tweets were him “thinking”
Nothing about their comment outlined that they didn’t know how to use it. But that they never did use it.
Nothing about their comment eludes to any fact that they’re embarrassed at all. They posted it publicly and directly with not reservation which is the opposite of “embarrassed”.
They didn’t blame anyone for anything related to the iron itself. But for shallow intentions if they care at all about the clothes that they wear. Which I can understand and agree with to some extent.
You on the other hand… You’re a jackass. Lots of insinuations, lots of assumptions. Just to put down some random person on the internet for not wanting a fucking iron that probably was the 20$ special at wally world.
or prevent us from watching with a VPN enabled.
Man this one chaff’s me the most. I way a paying Netflix customer like 8 years ago. I had IPv6 setup as a 6rd tunnel through HE (Hurricane Electric) because my ISP didn’t offer IPv6. Netflix treated that as a VPN and blocked me as a paying customer… Even though I lived/payed from the same fucking locale. It’s not like I was using a VPN to bypass a Geoblock. I was just making IPv6 available to myself. I cancelled because of that. You do not get to tell me how I access the internet at large, especially when I’m not even being shady about it.
Yeah… when you pull up stats for Netflix library, you learn some things… Like how little content they actually had. Never cracked 7000 movies… And while that may seem like a lot to a lot of people out there. Those of us that remember blockbuster stores, you ignore like 90% of them cause they’re dumb or silly movies that you’d never watch anyway (or stuff you’ve already watched). Then you can put actual numbers to it… If each of these are full bluray rips (which they’re not as far as Netflix goes) they only take up 175TB… It’s not a lot of movies at all.

It’s pretty easy to see how an individual could collect more content than netflix easily. Now add money to the equation… I think it would be possible to collect double or triple netflix easily.
The real fun is going to be when he’s finally up and running… I have ~250TB of data on the Truenas box. Initial sync is going to take a hot week… or 2…
Edit: 23 days at his max download speed :(
Fine… a hot month and a half.
Ceph has been FANTASTIC for me. I’ve done the dumbest shit to try and break it and have had great success recovering every time.
The key in my experience is OODLES of bandwidth. It LOVES fat pipes. In my case 2x 40Gbps link on all 5 servers.
Nah, that’d be mean. It isn’t “simple” by any stretch. It’s an aggregation of a lot of hours put into it. What’s fun is that when it gets that big you start putting tools together to do a lot of the work/diagnosing for you. A good chunk of those tools have made it into production for my companies too.
LibreNMS to tell me what died when… Wazuh to monitor most of the security aspects of it all. I have a gitea instance with my own repos for scripts when it comes maintenance time. Centralized stuff and a cron stub on the containers/vms can mean you update all your stuff in one go
40 ssds as my osds… 5 hosts… all nodes are all functions (monitor/manager/metadataservers), if I added more servers I would not add any more of those… (which I do have 3 more servers for “parts”/spares… but could turn them on too if I really wanted to.
2x 40gbps networking for each server.
Since upstream internet is only 8gbps I let some vms use that bandwidth too… but that doesn’t eat into enough to starve Ceph at all. There’s 2x1gbps for all the normal internet facing services (which also acts as an innate rate limiter for those services).
I could… But it would be a royal pain in the ass to find a VPS that has a clean address to use (especially for email operations).
Exactly this. 2 phase into house, batteries on each leg. While it would be exceedingly rare for just one phase to go out… i can in theory weather that storm indefinitely.
Nope 240. I have 2x 120v legs.
I actually had verizon home internet (5g lte) to do that… but i need static addresses for some services. I’m still working that out a bit…
Fire extinguisher is in the garage… literal feet from the server. But that specific problem is actually being addressed soon. My dad is setting up his cluster and I fronted him about 1/2 the capacity I have. I intend to sync longterm/slow storage to his box (the truenas box is the proxmox backup server target, so also collects the backups and puts a copy offsite).
Slow process… Working on it :) Still have to maintain my normal job after all.
Edit: another possible mitigation I’ve seriously thought about for “fire” are things like these…
https://hsewatch.com/automatic-fire-extinguisher/
Or those types of modules that some 3d printer people use to automatically handle fires…
From what I’ve read (I’ve done a few hours of reading on this specific topic at this point[damn you curiosity]). No. They’ve done all of 2 things with Israel in basically a decade. 2 exercises in a decade isn’t really enough to say that there’s any meaningful relationship other than “we’re not enemies”.
I could be wrong… But I do not get that intent at all from Cyprus, which aligns with their “surprise” at being yelled at from some other country about a country they barely interact with from a military perspective.
I’m ex-military and have personally participated in more exercises with countries the USA was less friendly with politically.
Absurdly safe.
Proxmox cluster, HA active. Ceph for live data. Truenas for long term/slow data.
About 600 pounds of batteries at the bottom of the rack to weather short power outages (up to 5 hours). 2 dedicated breakers on different phases of power.
Dual/stacked switches with lacp’d connections that must be on both switches (one switch dies? Who cares). Dual firewalls with Carp ACTIVE/ACTIVE connection…
Basically everything is as redundant as it can be aside from one power source into the house… and one internet connection into the house. My “single point of failures” are all outside of my hands… and are all mitigated/risk assessed down.
I do not use cloud anything… to put even 1/10th of my shit onto the cloud it’s thousands a month.
They’re caught off guard because all they’ve done up to this point was humanitarian aid. And there’s been no hints for participating any further. Imagine yelling at someone who’s only ever done positive things for your people.
It’s not complicated. It’s moronic on their end.
As if they could overpopulate those countries.
https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/stats/southwest-land-border-encounters
Past 4 years puts it at 8,280,550. Or nearly 2.5% of the US Population. And this number is “interactions” meaning there’s more coming across the border than that which goes undetected. Depending on where they specifically it’s entirely possible for them to overpopulate areas and place undue burdens on infrastructures and social safety nets.
If waves of them hear that NYC is a great place to be and all head there, well now NYC has a burden of dealing with that cannot do things like pay into taxes legally (no SSN to report wages to). Depending on where you live, you very well could be observing “overpopulation”. Or at least it may feel like that (more demand for housing, resources, etc.)
If they are allowed to stay, then they must adapt to each country’s lifestyle.
I agree with this. While America and other countries are all “melting pots” of sorts. There’s a reason you migrated… If you’re not willing to adapt to where you’re going, then why did you leave where you came from?
Well you’re missing the other half of the sentence that’s implied…
“These people are dipshits… I don’t want to be associated with them. How the fuck can I help the planet without being associated with these morons.”… It’s actually quite limiting.
The ml users are too.
Uh… A court martial is typically equivalent to a felony. If you’re found guilty it’s often associated with prison time and civilian felony statuses.
