They’re gonna have the day they voted for. I am completely out of any fucking sympathy for idiots who vote against their own interests and well being. Entirely fucking done.
gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Your TV Is Spying On YouEnglish8·15 days agoNo it’s not.
Still got an old Panasonic plasma from 2010 and it’s going strong.
But I am aware of the “wonders” of post-purchase monetization, which is how they’re printing out so many of these cutting edge OLED big screens for surprisingly low initial purchase prices

gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•How to "Reformat" a Hardrive the American wayEnglish43·17 days agoIt’s honestly easier to just disassemble them and then hack the platters up, if you’re really that paranoid. Or just melt it down with an inductive heater.

But to be fair, I’ve got a pretty good circle of friends, and a really strong core friend group.

gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•This new 40TB hard drive from Seagate is just the beginning—50TB is coming fast!English2·1 month agoThey’re slow, but they’re WAY more robust than most SSDs - and in terms of $/TB, it’s not even close. Especially if you’re comparing to SLC enterprise-grade.
gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•This new 40TB hard drive from Seagate is just the beginning—50TB is coming fast!English1·1 month agoI mean personally, for long term data hoarding, I dislike running anything below raidz2, and imo anything less than 5 disks in that setup is just silly and inefficient in terms of cost/benefit. So I currently have 5x16TB in raidz2. The 60% capacity efficiency kinda blows, but also I didn’t want to spend any more on rust than I did at the time, and the array is still working great, so whatever. For me, that was a reasonable balance between power draw, disk count, cost, and capacity.
gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•This new 40TB hard drive from Seagate is just the beginning—50TB is coming fast!English4·1 month agoOk, I’m sorry, but… HOW??? How is it possibly two hundred fucking gigabytes??? What the fuck is taking up so much space???
gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•This new 40TB hard drive from Seagate is just the beginning—50TB is coming fast!English17·1 month agoImagine how long it’ll take to rebuild your raid array after one fails lol

gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Java at 30: How a language designed for a failed gadget became a global powerhouseEnglish323·1 month agoI don’t think weakly- or dynamically-typed languages are a good thing to base computer science curriculum around. Yes, it’s “easier”. But you will genuinely have a FAR better understanding the language and the logic you’re writing in it if you work in the scope of strong and static typing - or, at least have linters that force you to (e.g. mypy for Python)
This is what I fight against every goddamn day, and I get yelled at for fighting against it, but I’m not going to stop. I want to build shit that I can largely forget about (because, you know, it’s reliable and logically extensible and maintainable) after it gets to a mature state, and I’m not shy about making that known. This has led to more than a few significant conflicts over the course of my career. It has also led to me saying “I fucking told you so” more than a few times.
