Hahahahaha. Are you seriously defending crap like __autoload and package management built on top of that hack?

Link it to your real identity, brilliant idea 👌

I just shipped n 8TB drive of children's shows to a friend. First, because many of the shows I wanted to recommend him aren't on streaming services and second, because he's moving to the mountains soon, where the internet may or may not be available.

Other than this instance, the last time was likely around 2007.

I'm not saying you're going to lose data or that it is a bad product. It's for a different use case.

I have a cluster of servers where storage box has been used for passing data between serves for batch processing. Not a lot of data but if it is not available, the while system is down. I learned the hard way. Plus they sometimes change IP addresses which is bad of you have a strict firewall.

But for backing up postgres and some other files, Storage Box is great value and it's not a problem at all if it's down for a few hours.

Presumably s3 will be highly available. Storage box is just a share on some server and has quite a lot of downtime. Okay for backups but not for your main data. We'll see if their s3 is indeed better, but it should be, given that price difference.

Is there a link for non-subscribers?

Alright then, I guess it's time for attempt #3 with the newly acquired knowledge. Thanks!

Since when? I made two attempts over many years and an elaborate offlineimap and msmtp setup was needed both times.
