netatalk is also the wrong solution nowadays. AFP is unmaintained, both on the netatalk side and on macOS. Instead, Samba supports Time Machine backups via the "fruit" (!) extension, which also provides some nice performance improvements for macOS clients.

https://manpages.debian.org/buster/samba-vfs-modules/vfs_fru...

TL;DR though: add the following configuration to the global section of your smb.conf:

vfs objects = fruit streams_xattr
fruit:aapl = yes
fruit:metadata = netatalk

And under the section for your Time Machine share:

fruit:time machine = yes

> Well, there's a difference between doing something for fun that takes some resources, versus doing something for fun that takes a huge amount of resources

Do you realize the whole gaming industry revolves around NOTHING but consuming HUGE amount of resources (including hardware development) for nothing but "fun". Do you really need 8k gaming, or maybe even "nethack" consume too much energy for you ? Btw, I'm not even getting started about the "entertainment" industry...
Agreed; that sounds like it could be potentially useful. If you've got something with a central server already in the model, up to and including something like github or something, it doesn't even sound that hard to check that on a per-push basis. A bit of trickiness around what constitutes a "live" branch, but that seems amenable to heuristics.
I worked at a large American defense (blob? I don't know what the correct business term is) that put every damn McAfee product (all kinds of zany things I had never even heard of) on everyone's computers.

One particularly bad piece of software would intercept filesystem syscalls and I guess generate hashes from the data to do some sort of scan? Whatever it did made hg and the build tools almost unusable. For years everyone that was a member of the "engineering" group on the network was exempt but I guess someone realized managers were part of that and you had jump through administrative hoops to get temporary exemptions.

We had these amazing machines. I think the laptop I had might have been nearly as powerful as the desktop I just built, but my 10 year old thinkpad could consistently outperform them thanks to McAfee.

It's frustrating to me that this train only goes 79 miles an hour. It seems really hard for it to be a competitive option with driving when the maximum speed is approximately the same as the maximum speed in a car.
They are both valid criteria, depending on your perspective. But the perspective that matters here is the perspective of the owner of the Android OS.

The EU's ruling was that Google needed to defuse the situation where their market position of Android was furthering their search engine dominance. The EU did not demand that Google give up the economic benefits of developing a popular phone OS. So Google even though Google must offer choice of defaults, it still has the right to sell spots on the list, so long as there is choice.

So the perspective that matters in choosing spots on the list is Google's, subject to obeying the EU ruling to offer alternative choices. Google's economic interests are aligned with getting the highest price for the spot. There is no reason why DDG ought to get the spot for free.
we could have had already some encounters, maybe some current life-forms in Earth were actually alien-forms initially (somehow octopuses comes to mind).

Some people on the net says that the current coronavirus situation could be an alien-species. I know it is FAR FAR from anything related to what we already know about the virus.

But it gives an idea about what could have looked an encounter with a new alien-patogen which just landed on Earth at some point at history and got to survive and thrive in the local ecosystem.
> This is surprisingly common behavior.

Anecdotally, consumer NVMe SSDs actually tend to not lie about it. Every time I've benchmarked a consumer NVMe SSD under Windows both with and without the "Write Cache Buffer Flushing" option, it has a profound impact on the measured performance of the SSD. I have not observed a comparable performance impact for SATA SSDs, so I suspect Microsoft's description of what that option does is inaccurate for at least one type of drive, though it is at least possible that ignoring flushes is extremely common for consumer SATA SSDs but uncommon for consumer NVMe SSDs.
This is crucial: Individuals are not businesses but American tax code allows for that fiction.
> ... but rather whether the resources spent on it (energy expenditure of the distributed BOINC nodes used) is worthwhile

Is 8k gaming worthwhile ? How about 4k ? 1k ? text-mode gaming ? gaming in general ? Shouldn't we all better ourselves being productive to society rather than play mindless games ?
I think that companies like duckduckgo who make a product in the consumer's interest are a bit dubious as long as their product is not open source.

Who is being paid in this "auction"? What percentage of customers of search know precisely what they are paying? The latter I'm putting at "so close to zero as makes no difference" which makes "price competitive" outcome a little on the absurd side.

I'd phrase it as "DDG claim they unwilling to rob their customers as much as industry norms to be able to afford the fee" (a fee they're paying to who?) to be on the list.

Customers are not consulted at any point. Customers are largely unaware of what Google have done to them via surveillance. Customers never agreed in any meaningful way to what google have done with their massively succesful surviellance bait and switch strategy.

Controlling the sales infrastructure and selling in that infrastructure is a thing that would be exceedingly difficult for it not to be anti-competitive.

It's been a problem in this industry at least since Microsoft were known as the death star and anyone successful in software found out they had just done microsoft's market reseach for them. Maybe longer?

Doesn't matter how long, it's gotta go. Beyond a small size you do distribution and nothing else or you use that distrubution to get sales. You got big? Splin off one of those parts and sell it while counting the money from your immense success. There's no way the current system is better for anyone other than those that want market power rather than producing high quality stuff.
This. I like texts but texts not tend to include write's thought process but videos tend to.
I used to be a "shooting star" developer. I was always the most productive member of my team. I was the go-to person for any complex problem. At some point in my career I decided to change from being a shooting star to being a "rising tide." Instead of being the best individual contributor I focused on making everyone else the best they could be. That's when my income really skyrocketed.

My life experience is that there is sort of a karma. I helped a lot of people become better at their jobs and expected nothing in return. Some of those people went off to be extremely successful, and they wanted me to come along with them in making tons of money. Expecting nothing in return is the key. People know if you're keeping score.

Sure, I get you. There are all kinds of possibilities in a vast universe. If, for the sake of discussion, we can assume that alien bacteria and viruses have roughly the same physical constraints — it's pretty unlikely you see that kind of adaptive behavior toward multicellular organisms. There is a physical limit on the size of bacterial genomes and viral RNA is a single set of instructions that get inserted into the host's own genome, so they literally can't be that complex. Every bacteria and virus on Earth targets a specific host, environment and/or life cycle - they have to specialize and adapt to survive.

That's not to say we couldn't inadvertently pick up a bioengineered complex organism from an advanced alien species - that would be a completely different story.
DDG is attacking the weakness in their strength, a pretty classic technique for a lower tier player to attack the leader.

By redefining privacy as "we don't know you" instead of "we keep your stuff secure" their doing a clausewitz style offensive.

There's limitations to this technique and that's what they keep hitting. They're not going vertical on their beachhead, so yeah, this is what happens.

Eh, whatever, it's not like I work there so best of luck to them.

I doubt any consumer M.2 drives will have power loss protection. The additional cost and PCB space required for the capacitors is a non-starter in consumer drives where every cent counts.

Server grace storage will specify if power loss protection is included on the board. You can usually identify the capacitors as well. For example, they are the yellow rectangles near the edge of this Intel SSD: https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/96932/i...

Note that the Intel drive with PLP is 110mm long, which is 30mm longer than most consumer M.2 SSDs due to the additional capacitors. This won’t fit on certain consumer motherboard.

There's a very very big difference between a virus who has evolved alongside other living beings on this planet for millions of years and finally made the jump from one specie, vs some form of life that has probably been separated from us for billions of years. The former has very specific mechanisms that has evolved to perfectly trick our defense system, not too much to kill us instantly and not too little to not spread. It's perfectly in the goldilock zone. The latter on the other hand has never come in contact with anything anywhere close to our life form.

Apologies, I'm meaning my statement to ask how these help. I get that OT needs a central server to be the arbiter if what happened. I don't get how these data structure mitigate that.

Google ignored their mission statement before. Why not again?
Hmm understood! This is really helpful! Thank you!
Yes, It is actually. I wound up pretty far down this rabbit hole while learning about re-entry dynamics.

The issue with “normal” hypersonic drag is the pressure shock front is “attached” to the surface of your “plane”. Which means that location is subjected to the thermal loads induced by the shockwave compression. What they discovered back in the early days of manned space flight (and icbm development) was that there is a relationship between how pointy you make something and the detachment of that shockwave. The bi-conic space capsule shape were all familiar with from the Gemini and Apollo program pushes the hypersonic shock wave completely off the surface!

This means that you have way less heat to work deal with... but that shape is ideal for re-entry, when your trying to slow down. Not for when your trying to go faster. As a result there’s been heaps of aerodynamic engineering research since the 60s on how to get similar detached shock fronts while maintaining aerodynamic control over the vehicle.

One significant development was the drag reducing aerospike. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag-reducing_aerospike and another was the creation of a lot of a lot of plasma physics funding ;-)

All jokes aside, the other outcome was the realisation that by artificially inducing a plasma at a lower temperature in front of the airframe they could both aim to control the shape, composition and temperature of the plasma while also improving aerodynamic control, and minimising plasma heating and RF blocking, radar signature, all while still benefiting from the re-entry like effect of pushing the heated shock front entirely off the airframe. There’s been a fair bit of small scale wind tunnel testing over the years, some of which is available in the NASA technical reports server archives.

Curiously the "GST" in Australia (which is a similar type of tax) has a similar thing, $75,000 AUD+ per year before you need to register.

Unless you're a taxi driver, when you need to register regardless. They carved that out.

The ato claims this is because[1]:
1) to avoid the confusion that would be created if some taxis had to charge GST and others did not
2) avoiding the added problem that would arise if a passenger was using a taxi for a business trip (creditable acquisition). In this instance, the passenger would want to be able to claim an input tax credit for the GST included in the fare
3) meter rates are set by each state authority and after 1 July 2000 all meters were adjusted to reflect the GST. If some drivers were registered and others were not, all would be collecting the higher rate. This would disadvantage drivers who had to be registered if the ordinary registration turnover threshold applied.

Interesting point of view in that specific case.

What is "low usage" by Google's standard? A million users? 10 million users? What may look like a blip on Google's radar possibly eclipses a successful startup's entire profit-generating user base.
Sure, although the proper way to test it would be to write a lot of data to the drive, issue an fsync, and cut power in the middle of the operation. Rinse and repeat a (few) hundred times for each drive.

There's a guy on btrfs' LKML (also the author of [0]) who is diligent enough to do these tests on much of the hardware he gets, and his experience does not sound good for consumer drives.

The Empire Builder is one of those vacation trains. That it actually does something useful between Minnesota and Chicago is basically accidental. Because it's government-run it has to run these completely unprofitable trains.
The problem isn't so much the speed, it's that it has to slow down frequently, gets blocked by freight trains too often, and stops in far too many towns. There should be an express option.
As a result, your less wealthy neighbors are worse off. And you also suffer because of this as well, you just don't realize.

Anyway, it sounds like you deserve all of the problems of the US since you're not actually interested in making anything better. As a result, you'd be a net negative to anywhere you move with that mindset.
