The battery has died.

Telling others that you’re too sensitive is likewise used to deflect any criticism.

Man erinnere sich an die Bettwanzen zu Olympia.

Russland spielt die deutschen Medien aus. Mal wieder. Die haben zu lange ihre eigenen Fürze geschnüffelt und merken gar nicht mehr, dass sie sich ihre eigenes Grab schaufeln.

Cloudflare bietet verschiedene Dinge an. Für die basics gibt’s dutzende Service Anbieter oder FOSS on-prem Lösungen. CDNs sind zB ein vollkommen valides Geschäftsmodell, das muss nicht jeder selbst haben. WAFs sind schon etwas schwieriger, aber auch dort gibt es andere Anbieter.

Cloudflare ist nicht schlecht, weil deren Produkte nicht FOSS oder überteuert wären. Cloudflare ist schlecht, weil es eine eigentlich dezentrale Infrastruktur mit einem monopolistischem Layer überzogen hat. Ich unterstelle da erstmal nicht einmal böse Absicht. Was die machen ist technisch sogar ziemlich gut. Aber eben alles zentral. Das will man eigentlich nie.

Weil CF sich in derart viele Bereiche des Internets geschlichen hat, dass sie nicht nur einen erheblichen Teil des Internettraffics mitlesen können, sondern auch eine Art Single Point of Failure geworden sind.

Wenn Cloudflare kaputt geht, kann man das Internet zumachen.

Und cloudflare gefährdet das Internet.

I’m kind of pissed that such obvious and preventable idiocy leads to an almost immediate liver transplant.

Yes, that’s just a lucky coincidence for him, but still…

As shown above, they don’t read the label. Ironically, you didn’t even read the screenshot that’s the cause of all of this - which disproves your point entirely.

It’s not inherent in terms of “more store=more fast”.

You could absolutely take older, more established production nodes to produce higher quality, longer lasting flash storage. The limitation hardly ever is space, but heat. So putting that kind of flash storage, with intentionally slowed down controllers, into regular 2.5 or even 3.5" form factors should be possible.

Cost could be an issue because the market isn’t seen as very large.

I still wonder, what’s stopping vendors from producing “chonk store” devices. Slow, but reliable bulk storage SSDs.

Just in terms of physical space, you could easily fit 200 micro SD cards in a 2.5" drive, have everything replicated five times and end up with a reasonably reliable device (extremely simplified, I know).

I just want something for luke-warm storage that didn’t require a datacenter and/or 500W continuous power draw.

What if, that might overwhelm you, this doesn’t answer the question at all?

You’re simply pushing the question half a millimeter to the side. Nothing more.

That’s what I’m asking myself with pretty much any “sexy” decoration.

Why put a poster of a nude girl in your locker, break room, bedroom, whatever? The only explanation I can find is performative display of (hetero) masculinity.

Man sollte die Sorgen der Echsen ernst nehmen! Sonst spielt man nur der AfD in die Hände!!!

Not to sound confrontational, but you’re way too focused on your - likely rather advanced - usage.

90% of people search for very simple stuff. They want to know the weather or want to know about that new movie they don’t quite remember the name of. And for that use case, Google is perfectly serviceable. And since people are used to it, for example by it being the default on most platforms, they use it.

A lot of market leaders are objectively a bad choice, but they’re a known brand. Coca cola, McDonald’s, Oracle, etc.

If everything is a trauma, nothing is.

Not every bad experience is traumatic. Abusing that word devalues the actually traumatizing experiences. Being an outsider in school and being raped by your dad are categorically extremely different experiences. Lumping them into “traumatic” is just not helpful.

Your comments strengthen my conviction that you read a philosophy book and now try to emulate what you think smart people sound like.

Naja, eigentlich hat jeder schon ein Rad. Oder zumindest so ziemlich jeder.

Actually, that’s exactly the point of “act fast” as described in the text.

If you assume that many will sell their cars, you also assume prices will drop. That means, it’s better to sell now, when prices are still somewhat high. It’s the same mechanism as in any stock crash.

Why not just recommend adblockers? No ads, no revenue, no matter how much tracking.
