Nope. SD cards can do terabytes now. Walking away with it is probably the easiest part of the whole heist plan.

Getting around the obscure hardware and software DRM schemes, moving that much data quick enough that you don't have to make two trips, getting the knowledge required to do all that... I figure those would probably be harder.

Only hundreds? With their active userbase? I know the article said they were told about it by a previous news article several months ago, but like, at some point there's only so much you can do.

I expect Facebook did nothing, which is not only so much you can do, but also I expect that from Facebook. The whole company needs to be split up, and this is just another symptom of that.

I ended up using a cam for a movie from 2009 to check to see if the movie had differences between the theater version and the DVD release. It didn't but it was neat that I could, 15 years later.

So I respect it, but also, good god will I never actually watch them for the actual movie itself.

I think that if Disney was confident in whatever movie it is they're making, they would have kept RDJ's involvement on the down-low, to surprise the audience. Instead, they made this big hullabaloo about RDJ coming back.

Disney famously broke the contract with Robin Williams to advertise him in Alladin. I don't think Disney would ever keep a big stars involvement 'on the down-low', regardless of how confidant they are about a movies success.

They make you compile it because it's non-free software and you're beta testing it in order to use it for free.

It has nothing to do with linux. They do the same for the windows beta.

Same here. I was playing with the little cover thing, accidentally got it stuck, and the plastic handle started to melt off. Burnt the tips of my fingers trying to get it fixed.

I run Debian with zfs. Really simple to set up and has been rock solid for it too. As far as I can tell all the issues I've had have been my fault.

ZFS looks like it uses a lot of RAM, but you can get away without it if you need too. It's basically extra caching. I was thrilled to use it as an excuse to upgrade my ram instead.

Mdadm has a little more setup then zfs, as far as I'm concerned. You need to set your own scrubbing up whereas zfs schedules it's own for you. You need to add monitoring stuff for both though.

I've considered looking into the various operating systems designsd for this, but they just don't seem to be worth the effort of switching to me.

Because everything's a trade-off, people optimize different systems for different things

And microsoft has chosen to optimize windows 11 for online advertisers above or equal to the user experience.

I've been using noscript for years.

Yeah, it took me about that long to get my regular websites working right too. And then i had to reinstall for unrelated reasons and all that customisation was gone.
