I already did… There’s some subscription stuff where you can read pretty much all available magazines and papers, it’s been a long time since I’ve been reading that much “news” and reports

Nah. The issue is way more complex than that and begins in proper training for drivers and ends in some proper road worthy inspections of vehicles so that they at least have their lights correctly aligned and aimed.

There are no such issues in Europe. Sure, you get the occasional double blink from matrix led system, but I’d take those systems any day of the week over some who just forgot to turn off their high beams or has their lights aimed incorrectly

That would need proper training - meaning a drivers license that’s worth the plastic it occupies. Which it isn’t. Compared to the EU, a north American driver’s license is like letting a paper plane flyer in an A380 and saying “There’s the light switch, there’s the Autopilot, go fly”.

I agree and this resonates - but I’d still choose AMD in a heartbeat, Intel has lost all and every confidence that they do security correctly and it’s only since the 5000 series AMD has…“issues”. We’ve got a relatively big pool of various devices and the 3000 series ones are basically flawless.

However, especially ASUS has no right to cry about AMD, as they don’t seem to be able to fix simple bios errors either.

Better security…

So… You want to turn off the sun? This has nothing to do with climate change, the sun hasn’t changed intensity in a few 100 years, so sun makes things warm

Not really. Tons of apps are such bad quality, I’m actually wondering if there’s more shit in the app stores than anywhere else…

As someone managing KnowBe4 for our Clients, I’d actually let you pass with it… ;D

I’ve been, too. Even though I’m neither in the US, nor a US citizen… It’s scary right now…

Why on another continent? Except maybe VDI, some direct calls to some LLM or some insane scales, there’s nothing really that needs those round trip times.

I would say it’s a very bad metric though in this context.

Full-ACK.

Luckily “the West” isn’t just the U.S. - it’s also France, the U.K., Mexico and even Australia…

the storage is built so it doesn’t break so easily. I trust AWS engineers more than Mike, no matter how cool Mike is to hang out with. Additionally, if the storage breaks while Mike is on vacation we’re screwed, with the cloud you get a whole team 24/7 on it.

That’s easily mitigated just following established standards. Redundancy is cheaper than anything else in the aftermath and documentation can be done easy with automation.

you can prevent data loss with backups or multi-region setups with a few clicks/terraform lines. Try telling the PO that you need to rent datacenter space in Helsinki and Singapore for redundancy…

You don’t, you rent rack space in a location far enough away but close enough to get the data in a few hours.

It’s neither superior, easier or less risky, it’s just a shift in responsibility. And in most cases, it’s so expensive that a second or third on site engineer is payed for.

The west does not have a monopoly on innovation.

Nope - but it does look like we have the “monopoly” of being able to call out bullshit openly and not fear falling out of a window. Or being stabbed.

Geht auch nich um den Dude selber, sondern um etwaige Gäste und anderes. Aber das ist am Ende pP (persönliche Präferenz).

Die Vodafone Station taugt nich viel…aber sie sollte ausreichen, wenn ein Kabel dran ist.

Weil zum einen WLAN Adapter für ein Synology teuer sind, dazu noch eben ein ordentlicher Adapter noch teurer. Du hast beim WLAN sehr viele Punkte, die Fehler verursachen können - und zwar auch solche, wo du dann auf dem Trockenen sitzt, im Sinne davon, dass du nicht mehr ans NAS kommst. Weiterhin hast du bei einer direkten LAN Verbindung mit dem PC dann noch andere Probleme.

Wenn du dir einen Gigacube 5G besorgst und den bei dir im Zimmer platzierst, kannst du alle möglichen Probleme umgehen und hast dein “eigenes” Netzwerk. Damit musst du dann nich so sehr drauf achten, alles zu vor deinen Mitbewohnern zu Schützen, standardmäßig “schreit” so ein Synology durch das Netzwerk, dass es da ist. Dazu kannst du, wenn du eben von außen Backups machen möchtest, einfach entsprechende Ports die nötig sind freigeben.
