I feel like this is the first time I've EVER heard of a fine being "all the profits you made from the fraud." Is this for real? Why the hell is it Razer, of all companies, that's getting a proper punishment?

The XZ exploit was found because some dude was investigating performance issues in a system, and noticed an unusual amount of time being spent in SSH processing, IIRC.

A couple of video streaming services, Hulu, which includes Disney+, Discovery+ and Netflix. That totals up to like $50/mo or so.

Other than that, it's aaaallllll independent creators, through Twitch or Patreon.

I'll take this over the more "classic" styles, when people seed to believe they were paying the compiler by the character.

Generally speaking, fault protection schemes need only account for one fault at a time, unless you're a really large business, or some other entity with extra-stringent data protection requirements.

RAID protects against drive failure faults. Backups protect against drive failure faults as well, but also things like accidental deletions or overwrites of data.

In order for RAID on backups to make sense, when you already have RAID on your main storage, you'd have to consider drive failures and other data loss to be likely to occur simultaneously. I.E. RAID on your backups only protects you from drive failure occurring WHILE you're trying to restore a backup. Or maybe more generally, WHILE that backup is in use, say, if you have a legal requirement that you must keep a history of all your data for X years or something (I would argue data like this shouldn't be classified as backups, though).

Damn, actual personal growth being displayed on the internet? Such a rare thing I find myself wondering it wasn't all staged. How messed up is that?

Also, how messed up is it that it worked, cause I'mm'a go watch all of these.

So, what you're saying is, their current setup is working for you, and their new proposal for lower-orbit satellites isn't really necessary?
