  • I only really listen to them while driving 3+ hours.

    My mind needs some engagement or I’ll fall asleep.

    I listen to Dark Net Diaries because I’m interested in Cyber security, this American life because of the varied stories, wait wait don’t tell me because it’s light hearted, and car talk because of the nostalgia. I’m planning on grabbing a prairie home companion because my father listened to it, makes me think of him.

    That being said. Dark Net is becoming a little more dramatic than I’d like, but it’s still good content.

    I’m running 160tb of refurbished Exos right now.

    I throughout the years

    2 x 10tb

    2 x 14tb

    3 x 16tb

    12 x 18tb

    8 x 20tb

    I’ve only had 2 x 16tb fail within 500 hours. All other disks have 7k+ hours and are running fine.

    As long as you manage your backups properly, you won’t need to worry.

    Bought mine through server part deals. Their 2 year warranty is so painless. Shoot them the SN and smart data and you just swap disks.

    If they don’t have the disk they just refund you completely.











  • Yeah wiki also says.

    Bluetooth 2.0 already supports 3mbps or (2.1mbps real world)

    The bit rate of EDR is 3 Mbit/s, although the maximum data transfer rate (allowing for inter-packet time and acknowledgements) is 2.1 Mbit/s.

    BT5 expands on the Low Energy specifications to allow 2mbps burst.

    Bluetooth 5 provides, for BLE, options that can double the speed (2 Mbit/s burst) at the expense of range, or provide up to four times the range at the expense of data rate.

    Also 802.11n already runs at 54mbps for a 20mhz wide channel.




  • Just remember it’s always about the profits.

    Just like how they stopped selling chargers for the sake of reducing e-waste. Even though they can save on shipping weights and charge extra for 1st party chargers.

    Now is it worse for the environment to produce extra chargers and cables? Or the secondary purchases, shipping, and manufacturing? I can’t tell you the actual impact.

    Oh and remember the absolute trash 1A/5V charging bricks they included for the longest time ever? They hardly even pushed out 18w bricks before they nixed the entire included charger crap.
