I hate Tesla and traded mine in after only two months of ownership, but in no way is the lever hidden or not extremely obvious. In fact it is more obvious than the button. Several times I had passengers try to use the manual lever, which doesn't lower the window when used. After the second person did it, moving forward I told every person who hadn't been in my car before to use the button before getting out. Was one of the many reasons I traded it in.

6 nines is really really difficult. It’s hard to estimate costs with specific requirements, but a marketplace site with 1000 daily users means you’re expecting about 1 user per minute, which isn’t a lot. I’d imagine you could get by with the cheapest cloud hosting.

The real problem is that most major cloud providers don’t offer 6 nines. Even AWS only offers credits below 99.5%, so you’d want to not lock yourself into a single provider. My best suggestion is to have a small/cheap server with all of the big names and load balance/round robin between them.

uBlock Origin at a minimum. But I would suggest a privacy focused browser. Librewolf, Mulvad or even Brave. Browsers leak so much information about you it is easy for sites to fingerprint and track you even with an ad blocker.

I know Librewolf is working on their DNS leakage (last section on privacytests.org), but they also allow you to select a privacy focused DNS server which is nice when you’re not on a network you own, so you can’t run PiHole.

The US government is forcing Google and Apple to share push notification data with them. Even if the content is not sent, the metadata alone can let them know who you are talking to and when using metadata correlation.

This. I'm sure it's already happening. People training LLMs are already pointing their models towards ActivityPub.

It’s just BreachForums. Pretty sure the whole site is a honey pot.

Quite a bit of space could be saved with database compression. The database side of things has lower hanging fruit right now though.

I have no idea. I wasn’t there and didn’t even know about it until right now. Door could have been jammed shut after the accident like any other door that firefighters keep their jaws of life for.

It’s had to have been 25 years since I last heard about them.

edit: just hit their Wikipedia page and saw Beto O'Rourke was a member!

Power wise you are absolutely correct. It is not the best performance value anymore. However, support for the Pi4 is much more robust when using them in specific projects designed to use them.

I booted a VM with BeOS for nostalgia a couple months ago. Remember booting that as a kid and drooling over how fast it was.

Haiku. Was close enough for the feels.

Doctors offices and health insurance. It’s weird but technically fax machines are still considered “secure” communications for sending PHI. Sending it across the internet requires a lot of expensive hoops to jump through, or they could just buy a fax machine.

I bought the rear backplane for the dual 2.5 inch drives in the back. Going to throw the boot OS on it so I don’t have to worry about a USB drive dying or becoming corrupted. Good luck on your journey. Really interested to hear how it goes.

Ooof you have me worried. My R720XD shipped out yesterday and is supposed to arrive Monday. My plan was to install TruNAS Scale on it to replace my old tower with unraid installed on it. I have roughly 25 docker containers that I run. What kind of errors did you see? It’s scheduled to be installed in the data center week after next so I don’t have a bunch of time to troubleshoot.
