It shows that these people are populist leeches that will agitate against whatever the perceived establishment is doing. They're just anti-everything, whatever gets them the most attention at any point in time: Anti-immigration, anti-LGBTQ, anti-vaccination, anti-Israel, you name it.

Also, we should equally not forget that Hamas and their Palestinian, Arab and Islamic supporters are perpetrating a genocide against Israel and the Jewish people.

Honestly, please explain.

I know SaaS, but I don't see how that is relevant to Windows 10 and its maintenance. The OS works without requiring an Internet connection, so it's not relying on cloud computing for much of its functionality.

Ending support for an OS is also totally normal, many FOSS OSes do it too. Whether you paid for it initially or not honestly makes little difference, at the end of the day someone else has to expend their own time to fix something for you - some might do so for free, while others want to be paid.

Ah yes, there's nothing like blaming a whole country for the actions of a specific group. You're doing the exact same thing as people who blame all Palestinians for the Hamas terrorist attacks.

Edit: Downvote all you want, it's still hypocritical.

If your best case is “It might not technically be a war crime”, you are not in a great position.

You: Accuse Israel of war crimes

They: Prove that Israel technically didn't commit any war crime

You: tHaT's NoT a GoOd ArGuMeNt


I'm not saying I agree with everything Israel is doing, but calling their actions war crimes when they're not is just wrong. I hate to break it to you, but insisting on a lie doesn't make it any more true.

Shouldn't it be "90+9" for English, though?

But not all AI generated images can fool people the way this post suggests. In essence this study then has a huge selection bias, which just makes it unfit for drawing any kind of conclusion.

Oh, I think we're talking different orders of magnitude here. I'm in the <1TB range, probably around 100GB. At that size, the cost is negligible.

I do an automated nightly backup via restic to Backblaze B2. Every month, I manually run a script to copy the latest backup from B2 to two local HDDs that I keep offline. Every half a year I recover the latest backup on my PC to make sure everything works in case I need it. For peace of mind, my automated backup includes a health check through healthchecks.io, so if anything goes wrong, I get a notification.

It's pretty low-maintenance and gives a high degree of resilience:

  • A ransomware attack won't affect my local HDDs, so at most I'll lose a month's worth of data.
  • A house fire or server failure won't affect B2, so at most I'll lose a day's worth of data.

restic has been very solid, includes encryption out of the box, and I like the simplicity of it. Easily automated with cron etc. Backblaze B2 is one of the cheapest cloud storage providers I could find, an alternative might be Wasabi if you have >1TB of data.
