What’s the conspiracy there? Steel beams don’t conspire.

Raid is no backup. Raid helps you against drive failure.

Backup helps you if you or some script screwed up your data, or you need to go back to last months version of a file for whatever other reason.

Aws helps if your house burns down and you need to set up again from scratch.

Same, although aws is my plan b. For plan a I have an older Synology that is a full backup target.

I have done this with calibre and a Kindle, worked fine.

Nowadays I prefer reading on my phone, and loading ePubs on any eBook reader is a non brainer.

If someone inherits a billion dollar, how is that not just given to a random person?

That’s an argument for the product, but the system still promotes shitheads to the heads of the companies that deliver said products.

And that still means shitheads are shitheads, regardless of the amount of money they have.

Brute force attacks through web interface cannot be a real thing. Performance is much too bad to get anywhere even in great scenarios, plus its be simple to defend against.

But even if, web automation tools don’t need to be bothered by separating input fields. In the end one request is sent anyway.

This is a ux thing.

Oh yes.

That probably is not covered by the functional cookies that’s the maximum which I allow any site.

That’s the best explanation I heard so far.
