huh? why do people have this innate ability to underestimate what we might be capable of? why do you think its impossible for us to become masters of our own genome?

not getting off this rock means our species is doomed regardless of how ‘perfect’ we keep earth.

youre still not thinking astronomically. you need to think bigger. i like to at least pretend out technology advances.

our planet could easily be wiped by a number of things. if we dont plan for a planetary catastrophe out of our control, our species is doomed.

i think you underestimate human ingenuity and the time frames involved.

yes.

if we want to become a true space faring species resilient to all that the universe can throw at us we will need both

while we would all love this, hes too rich and too important to the US military to be subjected to actual regular-people laws. sorry.

ya know somewhere is one person who will never forgive themselves.

i gotta respect someone that keeps the post up, and corrects themselves. i really try and do the same, even if i had put my foot in my mouth.

ive found they help identify spammers pretty quickly

your attempt at convincing people why to use a button will fail. they will do what they want. technical solutions for human behaviors can be difficult because humans do not generally like to be told what to do

mbin already has ‘reputation’ exposed

mint works beautifully on these. i have several of this class

yes, that is what raid is but that is not a backup. it is making that single logical drive of your data resilient to a single drive failure. if anything goes sideways and you lose 2 drives, you lose 100% of your data. and it does happen. think power supply failure spiking your drives or whatnot.

you dont have to take my word for it, it is well known and well advertised that raid is not a backup.

if you do not have a copy of something in different place, you do not have a backup. raid != backup!, its for reliability (and sometimes speed).

i actually have the local copy, a nightly backup to the nas device, and set of offline drives i keep in a pelican case i refresh a few times per year as a secondary backup.

no, you dont need multiple nics. todays networking is plenty fast. if you really wanted to mount fast youd maybe consider a iscsi, but thats just me showing my age.

depending on the nas… you would make some shared foldering available to the jellyfin machine to mount over the network. users connect to the jellyfin machine, jellyfin feeds them its mounted content.

personally, i use a local copy of the content (6x4tb drives) on the same machine as jellyfin and use the nas as backup. you have a backup, right?

some nas devices will allow multiple nics on the same network to increase throughput, but its really not about directly connecting 2 ethernet devices.

i would suggest guiness

people are fickle beasts who like to use votes to express their opinion rather than relevancy

karmas a bitch

yep. ranked choice and removing party affiliation from ballots would go a long way to help this

so there is a solution. too bad no politicians will touch it because it would hinder their golden ‘2 party stranglehold’ goose

no actual product available, lets spam it everywhere. awesome.

hard not to feel like someone isnt countin eggs as chickens here

so, were afraid the same people who lost the last civil war are somehow going to think they can do it this time?

losers are gunna be losers i spose. i dont see it. these people are cowards and have no real targets. they are not organized. they are a joke.
