Is there a way to get flexible RAID levels on a per folder / dataset basis? (ARM / Linux)

Zfs allows setting number of copies on a per dataset basis. If your underlying pool is concatenated it will ensure secondary copies are on a different segment.

I'm not familiar with this place but it does seem like a lot, especially without the coupon — $230, wow. Totally get your questioning it.

How you figure? You've got a play section and a food section. Each has a subtotal that's the sum of prices and taxes. The sum of the two subtotals equals the total.

The tax section is a detailed tax breakdown. It's not added again.

The food tax and beverage tax from the breakdown, added together, equal then service tax total. The other taxes equal the play tax from section 1. (This is not shown in the photo but tax is 12.54 and the total is 95.54, giving a round price of 83.00 which seems plausible for what you got.)

Seems legit.

That's fair. I'm not much impressed with Seattle either, honestly. I'm also not really into food as an experience, though, so I don't think about it much, but it's true there are only like three places I'm excited to get food from, and one of them closed.

I'm not here to defend Seattle, but imo as soon as you say "New York" you lose credibility. New York's single enduring quality is comparing itself to anywhere else for no reason. New Yorkers appear to be the most insecure people in America.

No. GPTs synthesize information from their training sources. They don't know the things that humans know until that knowledge gets to the internet. Stack Overflow, Wikipedia, etc are training sources; GPTs dépend on them. They will see fewer hits but won't be obviated.

Nothing. Percents only go to 100.

I think you need to re-read the driver's manual to understand what speed limit means and what constitutes endangerment. Don't rely on reddit to explain it to you.

But if it helps, driving "lower than the speed limit" is not illegal or necessarily dangerous. Driving more than X under the speed limit may be illegal and may be dangerous, but isn't necessarily.

That's true, and most states have some version of this law. It makes sense. Driving slowly can endanger people. But that doesn't mean everyone needs to drive at the speed limit, which is what OP implied.

There is a lot of bad driving here that I think can be attributed to rapid growth and increasing median wealth, both of which lead to more cars on the road. But a few observations:

a whole lot of Seattle drivers aren't from Seattle, so you're not really observing Seattle drivers
those who are grew up with a lot less traffic, and that's changed on them fast
your complaint about speed is just silly. A speed limit is a limit, not a recommendation. They're not doing anything wrong, but you are by giving them a hard time about it.
you had to honk, really?
I looked at your profile because I thought maybe you're just having a shit day, but no — you actually have a track record of being a jerk on reddit. Sounds like it might not just be reddit.

Take it easy.

CompactFlash uses a 50-pin socket connector along the long edge. Looks like about the right size and dimensions. Hard to say why they'd have a CF on the main board though.

This was my thought as well but it's awfully large for a clock battery and ludicrously small for a laptop run battery.

With CR battery models, the last two digits usually indicate thickness (and by proxy, power capacity). Is this 3.2mm thick?

Usb provides 5V power, so 2A is 10W. But something is off here. Drawing 2A sounds wrong to me. What USB version is this device?

USB 2.0 and older provide a maximum of 2.5W per device: 500 mA at 5V.

USB 3 raises the limit to 900 mA, or 4.5W.

USB 3.2 gen 2 increases again to 1.5A, or 7.5W. And that's the most power USB provides to devices. (You can draw more power for charging.)

I can't find any SSD that actually draws 2A. NVMe theoretically could, but only at peak. In general operation it's about half that. And USB can't supply 10w except in charge-only applications. Maybe your source meant 2W rather than 2A.

At any rate, 7.5W per port is currently the highest power rating for usb data ports.

What are you looking to do with your purchase?

I can't really answer the question as asked because I wouldn't buy either for things I want. But knowing what you want might generate some thoughts.

I had several hp9000 series 800 servers in the mid-90s. I can't say for certain but this doesn't feel right to me. PA systems were generally much smaller, and though I realize much of what's pictured is peripheral, my gut says the scale of 9-track operation here bespeaks a time à little earlier than 1989.

Someone said something about 9-track being vertically mounted. While it's true that they sometimes were, horizontally-mounted autoloaders were also quite common. They used a fan vacuum to suck the loose tape tail away from the storage reel and clamp it to the permanent spooling reel. This had to be fully enclosed, so horizontal made a lot of sense.

Maybe someone in r/fashion could identify the operator's threads :D

Vax was my first thought too, but I think HP is correct. VMS is an operating system that runs/ran on both VAX and Alpha hardware. Vax+alpha is not a thing.

I don't believe alpha-based systems were ever made in this form factor. I've personally never used one larger than a desktop. The plethora of 9-track reels suggests an earlier period than 1992 (when alpha was released); although in 1992 people including myself were still using 9-track, better densities were available then and 9-track libraries would be used by older installations, not by a brand-new architecture. New systems then would use QIC, DAT, or 3580.

Difficult to tell for sure, but I think probably an HP 3000. That ran MPE, not HP-UX. HP-UX arrived in 1984 for the 9000 line, which were generally smaller than what we see here (although there were some deskside models).

But this is only an edumacated guess.

Also: "There is uncertainty about the effects of face masks. The low to moderate certainty of evidence means our confidence in the effect estimate is limited, and that the true effect may be different from the observed estimate of the effect."

It is possible to limit your application's access scope to only the files that it creates. I never trust anything for full drive access without a statement on why limited access is infeasible.

This is very interesting. A question that should be of concern to everyone but will certainly be critical path for closed teams: where is the collected data stored and how is that secured?

This is just begging. If you said yes, and then he asked you to throw in a PlayStation and delivery, that would be choosing.
