In 2010 I self hosted a Xen hypervisor and used it for everything I could. It was fun!

I had a drive failure in my main raid 5 array so bought a new disk. When it came to swap it out, I pulled the wrong disk.

It was hardware raid using an Adaptec card and the card threw the raid out and refused to bring it together again. I couldn’t afford recovery. I remember I just sat there, dumb founded, in disbelief. I went through all the stages of grief.

I was in the middle of a migration from OVH to Hetzner and it occurred at a time where I had yet to reconfigure remote backups.

I lost all my photos of our first child. Luckily some of them were digitised from developed physical media which we still had. But a lot was lost.

This was my lesson.

I now have veeam, proxmox backup server, backuppc and Borg. Backups are hosted in 2 online locations and a separate physical server elsewhere in the house.

Backups are super, SUPER important. I’ve lost count how many times I’ve logged into backuppc to restore a file or folder because I did a silly. And it’s always reassuring how easy it is to restore.

Christ. This rings true.

Whaaaat?!.. Oh okay. Nice.

Cash is still used a lot. Especially for second hand small purchases. Not everyone wants to do the PayPal dance at a car boot.

Report it lost instead. I’ve lost cards loads of times over the years. One phone call and the new one is on its way. However the fact your bank wouldn’t issue your replacement makes me think they would charge you for this privilege.

They should start a payment plan. $5 per day.

In the UK, if Christmas or New Year falls on a weekend, a seperate equivalent holiday is made during the week to compensate.

Read the article, then comment. Then you can avoid embarrassing yourself.

I expect some of those can be found by using a different mobile app

I think you’re confusing “many” with “most”. The definition of “many” does not mean the largest, just simply large.

What issues did you have?

How is what he said wrong? 25% is “many Russians”.

It’s in the first paragraph of the article.

Robot vacuums made by Ecovacs have been reported

I literally just explained this in the comment you replied to.

You did not.

Once again…

This was the first time you made this point, so not sure why you say “again”.

In other words, this ain’t it.

They likely won’t disclose the real reasons. However I’m yet to be convinced that reliability wasn’t taken into account.

According to this comment thread and the article, these cars have abruptly stopped functioning with no warning. Do you not think it is only a matter of time before that occurs in a dangerous situation? Insurance companies base their decisions on statistics and probabilities. It is very much related to “hypotheticals”.

I’ve managed Duo installations. The administrator can see your phone number, your device os and version, history of authentication attempts.

Only IP address. Location days from IP address is a guess at best

I don’t know how you got to the conclusion that OP was saying “all” and not being hypothetical.

I really wish Firefox implemented easily switchable browser profiles. I am use Firefox mainly but for work I’ll still use edge so I can use this feature.
