I really want to give him the entirely unwarranted benefit of the doubt that he’s saying it won’t matter in 4 years bc he won’t be running (making the assumption he’ll win this time and reach his term limit) but having watched the video I dunno, that “we’ll have it fixed by then” sounds reeeeaaally ominous.
Bottom line, there’s always a possibility a cloud/service provider could lose you data. That chance is (/should be) exponentially smaller on their environments however than the likelihood of your own local stores.
If you’re really serious about preserving your data, consider the 3-2-1 Backup Rule:
3 copies of your data 2 different types of media 1 copy stored off-site
His excuse was some bs about, “companies should be allowed to decide for themselves without having the government mandate it for them”.
This, from the same guy who wants the government to decide what aspects of history schools can and cannot teach, or what books libraries can and cannot include.
Very consistent, Ronny.
I’ve been on this train for a long time, but this election is really making me question that position. Personally, I think both the major party’s candidates are dismal at best so it feels terrible to consider voting for either - I don’t want to tell either party, “hey, I like your guy and your platform.” For literally decades, I’ve been of the option that is a party wants my vote then they need to present me with a platform and candidate that I agree with - regardless of what party that actually is.
The problem is, if I vote 3rd party this time around then my greatest hope would be to contribute towards some party finally reaching 5% of the vote in order to receive federal funding for the next presidential election - in 4 years. There’s zero hope that my 3rd-party vote is going to somehow result in a shocking 3rd party presidential election victory though, which means the winner is still going to be one of the two major party’s candidates. I don’t care about voting for the “winning team” or whatever, but I do get the distinct impression that one of the two major party’s candidates has a much higher disregard towards our form of government and could pose a more significant threat to our daily lives as a nation. Thus, for the first time ever I feel myself gravitating towards voting for the “lesser of two evils.” Don’t get me wrong, I think there’s a lot of things the Democrats get right on various party positions (and I think there might be a couple Republicans do, too?) so the “lesser of two evils” phrase isn’t meant to suggest both options are depraved - just that I don’t personally particularly align with either. I am definitely feeling like I have to choose a side though, lest a “greater evil” pull off a win and jeopardize our entire democracy.
Well c’mon, if they write a legit privacy bill it’s going to hurt their Stateside vectors. This way, they can tout “yay security!” while funneling more traffic to Instabookapp where they can still access it.
I read a while back that Bobby Kotick was trying to drum up investors for it.
Given what this week is, that’s remarkably appropriate timing to bring that up!
And now D4 is copying that crafting system over in an attempt to salvage their own game.
The only reason I stomached all the bs of Overwatch 2 was for the promise of PvE. As soon as they announced they weren’t doing that anymore I uninstalled the game. The fact they squeezed out some half-assed story missions for a price was just the final nail in the coffin. It’s sad bc I loved OW1, but this game has become nothing more than a soulless money vaccuum.
Pretty sure that was more than one time
Only when the tree shoots first
I think it’s slightly more nuanced - not all OTAs are recalls, and not all recalls are OTAs (for Tesla). Depending on the issue (for Teslas), the solution may be pushed via an OTA in which case they “issue a recall” with a software update. They’re actually going through this right now. For some other issues though, it’s a hardware problem that an OTA won’t fix so they issue a recall to repair the problem (ex: when the wiring harness for their cameras was fraying the cables).
This is 100% from the NHTSA shenanigans, though.
I’m a die-hard AC fan, but typically only play through the game/story once and then put it on the shelf. This year, I picked up the UbiWhatever subscription at $15/mo, played through AC Mirage in a couple of weeks, and dropped the subscription. It’s even better than waiting for a sale!
Something something fewer predators
Florida here. They have adequate coverage, but there are caps in some extra options or high-end tell estate. The bigger issue is that all the other instance agencies are pulling out of the state so Citizens (the state insurance) is having to cover more and more to the point that the state is just one direct hurricane hit away from insolvency.
I wouldn’t worry about it too much, the concept cars always look sleek and then the manufacturers poop out something that looks way more standard. See: the Chevy Volt.
Not who you’re replying to but yes, Synology will let you automate backups to a cloud/service (and you definitely should!)
If I say “no,” does that mean yes?
As you do
