I believe only the controller needs cooling, not the dies.

SSDs are getting crazy cheap.

If you need 10tb of storage, you could get 2x used 10tb hdds in raid 1 for $200, but 6x used 2tb nvme in raid 5 is only $600 and 100x faster. Both take up the same amount of space.

SMR is designed for enterprise raid that is SMR-aware.

I’m not aware of any open-source zoned storage raid but I think Ceph is planning to add support next month.

The moving parts could disturb MIMO

There are probably some with sand and other hard minerals, I think Dove had some soaps with aluminum oxide in it?

Being smug over the meanings of words that aren’t ever actually used in a consistent way is even more American.

Um actually, Strawberries are not a berry, it’s a Gameboy, not a Nintendo, and I lick toads. Can you go to the bathroom?

The only thing similar that I have experienced in Europe is the protected food name law, e.g. Champagne and Parmesan, but that’s an EU cultural protectionism law that the US doesn’t actually follow.

Just do that 10,000 times over 300,000 years and you’ll have as much as Bazy Boy

Excuse you, I don’t have a problem.

The Linux drivers were pretty buggy at launch, so probably. Every Mesa release this year has come with a ton of fixes and improvements.

Never said they were

Yes but some of the people criticizing Lee may be Swedish or another culture that has the same view about public character assassination.

In some cultures, including Sweden, it’s not considered proportional to attack someone’s reputation publicly, even when they do abusive things. Here, the proper response would be to report the post to mods and to the police, and let them see over the punishment.

On non-Fairphones, which tend to have larger batteries and lower power consumption batteries tend to be usable for much longer. We are talking 3-5 years there.

No way.

Get the battery replaced once in the phone’s lifetime at a local 3rd party repair shop for €100 wait for half an hour and get your phone back.

These shops only service iPhones and Samsungs, there’s only like 1-2 shops in Stockholm that repair Pixels and Xiaomis at all, let alone whatever 3 year old model you have. Not to mention things like screen and USB port repairs cost 100-200€ more than the fairphone parts.

(Fairphone tends to have availability issues with spare parts. For example, right now the FP5 battery is out of stock.)

I’ve had to wait a month for a fairphone battery before, but it’s not like they’re discontinued. I can imagine battery warehousing costs more than screens and USB ports.

A repairable phone is the most important thing. I could buy a used flagship, but the battery will be trashed. I used to buy a phone every 2 years but now I just buy a battery every 2 years. I can use my phone knowing that if anything breaks I can have a replacement part in within a week, and I don’t have to spend 100€s to ship it to some repair shop in a different part of the country.

Fairphone 4 and 5 are also the only smartphones certified by the Swedish unions: https://tcocertified.com/product-finder/index?category=Smartphones

Who in the US is buying midrange or flagship phones without a loan?

Yeah, I mean Rust is only verbose if you want it to be. let foo = "bar"; is valid rust too, no need to declare the type and definitely no need to declare the lifetime.

For that matter, if you ever declare something as explicitly 'static in code that isn’t embedded or super optimized, you’re probably doing it wrong.

let a: &'static str

Have you actually met any of them at say, Fosdem?

Can we stop letting chatbots make economic and administrative decisions, thanks
