No, what the dude regrets is stopping, because he stopped getting attention. He's making noise now because others are getting the attention.
"Oh man, this is out of hand! I should know, because I used to do this myself. I basically started this whole scene. Wow. It's so out of hand now, guys. Look what I've done! I stopped and I"m responsible now, so don't blame me for anything bad. But remember, if anything useful comes out of this or it becomes some giant industry, it was because I was such a pioneer."
God did not give rocks any sense in the way in which you use the term, and so this is gobbledygook. The whistleblower may have no sense, as in 0 sense, but he cannot have "null" sense, which is what you are implying, because that would mean the whistleblower is non-sentient, and I don't think you are implying that.
I voted by mail so I could stay at home and jack off. I also care about treason, which is why I would love to see HRC, the DNC, and many of the Obama administration (perhaps even Obama himself) brought up on charges of treason.
After all, it's already been proven that HRC and the DNC paid a law firm to hire GPS Fusion to hire a British spy to work with Russians to create a fake dossier on Trump to leak to Yahoo for self-corroboration when presenting it under false pretenses to a FISA court to get a warrant to spy on Trump and his campaign in order to undermine the election. All of this occurred under the nose of the Obama administration with many in the FBI and justice department not only aware of the goings on but deeply involved in the conspiracy as well as planning an "insurance policy" on top of it.
Yeah, I've been looking at vSAN, but it costs extra (of course, it's VMware, everything costs extra) and has some odd requirements.
AMD and Intel both have on-CPU RAID, and I'd love for Epyc and ESXi to get on this shit. With SSDs and redundant PSUs fed by redundant PDUs backed by UPS and generator power, I don't think I care about a RAID card's battery/supercap. Just let me use some fucking NVMe SSDs in a redundant, hot-swappable fashion. We already have all the pieces we need, but for some reason vendors don't want to put them together in any way that lets me stay on the official hardware compatibility list.
The HBA itself isn't a problem. No individual piece of such a setup is. But the cost of the HBA and cables, dealing with cable routing in the rack, handling risers and chassis slot compatibility, etc. only to then have to deal with an external box (perhaps 2 for redundancy) that gives you less performance than you could get with direct attached storage is overall shitty.
If an HBA has its own PCIe bus, so can a RAID controller. There's no fundamental advantage there. The thing about software RAID is that ESXi doesn't support it.
And RAID doesn't just make sense for dense storage. It actually makes a lot more sense on lower end stuff. Consider someone who just wants 2 or 4 drives in RAID 1 for the fault tolerance or RAID 10 for the tolerance and performance/capacity. Telling them to run over an HBA to external box filled with drives represents a huge increase in cost and complexity. And if the RAID controller dies, you can have another in a matter of hours, or swap with a known good one. External storage devices take a lot longer to buy, receive, and physically install, let alone config. And it's a lot more expensive to have a second on hand just in case. If someone does need a lot of storage, then the jump to a dedicated storage box, and potential vendor contracts to support/maintain it, isn't as big.
I'm sick of "enterprise" gear being a shitty HBA to a shared storage device that slows you down (both speed and latency from the HBA, and the latency and shared aspect part of the storage device).
The world has spoken - NVMe PCIe flash isn't just the way of the future, it's the way of today. But for servers I want it in a hot swap drive bay, and I need it to be redundant. There are only a handful of RAID controllers out there that will support such a thing. (And as far as I know, you're limited to 8 lanes of PCIe 3.0 with the latest "tri-mode" shit.)
Can we please get more support for NVMe PCIe storage in RAID controllers and backplanes? I've been actively waiting for this shit for about 2 years, and it's still a rarity and a mess. SAS/SCSI is dead. Let's bury it already. Fucking Epyc-based systems have 128 lanes of PCIe 3.0! Why don't we fucking use them?
Give me a backplane with 8 hot swap bays for 2.5" drives and pipe that shit over a 32 lane PCIe link (yes, it goes to 32, not just 16) to a fast RAID SOC. Each bay can get 4 lanes. And if you really want to be smart, you'll fucking let people connect M.2 devices on the backplane, not just U.2 devices. Because there are like 7 total U.2 devices in the world and they're all the same fucking thing as the M.2 equivalent in a 2.5" case but with a much larger price. Fuck that. I'll run servers on 960 Evos (or 960 Pros if I'm feeling paranoid). A M.2 to U.2 adapter, a 2.5" enclosure, and some thermal pads are all you need to get an affordable, fast, and reliable U.2 drive.
It doesn't work. The government is fucking retarded and corrupt. There is no legal way to restrict people's rights to keep or bear arms in this country without first amending the constitution. Yet they shit on our rights all the time.
I don't want any gun control legislation. I don't care what tragedy occurred. It's unconstitutional. All of it. If you want to restrict guns do it legally - amend the constitution first, then create laws that don't violate the constitution.
As it is, every single law, regulation, etc. that interferes with US citizens keeping and bearing firearms is unconstitutional. If you disagree you're incorrect. If you don't like that right guaranteed by the constitution, you're free to work to change the constitution. Any restriction at any other level is illegal.
Google needs 4 messaging apps, so why not 4 email apps?
I don't understand why Google is so fucking idiotic and scattered. Just make GMail not suck. Just update encryption and codecs in Hangouts. I'm never going to download Allo or Duo. I'm only using a separate SMS app because they removed SMS integration from Hangouts (for no good reason). I was on an old version of Hangouts up until last week, when they forced me to update (they time bombed old versions of Hangouts sometime last week).
I haven't used coinbase lately, but I believe you essentially have to link your bank account now. All major credit cards recently blocked them, and if you want the lower fees and faster processing you need to link a bank account. Otherwise the fees are high and the wait is long. For people itching to get in while it's low (actually, it's already past $10,000 again) or trade frequently and make money off of day-to-day swings, time is of the essence.
Please define "ultra-processed". Please tell us which ingredients cause cancer, and in what amounts.
The fact is overeating and being overweight are far more dangerous to your health than processing and preservatives that make your food safe to eat by the time it gets to you. There are plenty of things I avoid, such as soy (most commercial soy is produced in an unsafe way because proper fermentation takes longer, also I don't exactly need estrogenic shit all up in me) and HFCS (your typical 55/45 blend is far enough off from the expected 50/50 that it can cause issues, but the main reason I avoid it is to limit the quantity of sugar overall because it's unnecessarily added to so many things). But you clowns are worrying about food coloring because rats given a full pint of it showed a 2% increase in cancer risk, and you're treating "processed" foods as evil despite not understanding that the various processing involved is what makes it so you can have bread without mold and meat that doesn't make you puke your own feces.
They found that a 10% increase in the amount of ultra-processed foods in the diet was linked to a 12% increase in cancers of some kind. The researchers also looked to see whether there were increases in specific types of cancer and found a rise of 11% in breast cancer, although no significant upturn in colorectal or prostate cancer.
It's the fatness of the people eating the food, not the "ultra-processed foods". The fact that breast cancer rates elevate and other, more common cancers aren't should be the dead give away.
I am of the mindset that it's just as bad regardless of who is doing it. Trading one for another doesn't matter much. If anything, being raped by a stranger is better than being raped by someone who could put you in prison if they don't like your performance during the rape.
WTF are you talking about? The United States of America and the Russian Federation are allies, and have been since shortly after World War II (when it was the Soviet Union). Not even during the Cold War was that not true.
Honestly, the Chinese government has no power or authority over me, so if that government took my data I'd mind a whole lot less than if it was my own government.
So you won't mind if (chinese) hackers get your financial data and empty your bank account or charge up your cards? You don't mind if they get personal data and sell it off at a price to whoever wants it? You don't mind if they use it to perform corporate espionage, if you have work data on your device?
I would mind just as much as I mind when US-based entities do it.
If it was a US corporation doing something illegal, you'd have legal recourse (at least in theory).
Maybe you've heard of taxes? In a place like California, between paying local, state and federal income taxes, plus social security and medicare taxes, the government is probably letting you have only HALF of your paycheck. Perhaps 60% of you're lucky. So of the 50-60% you're allowed to keep, spending 28-30% of it on a place to live is going to give you maybe 20-30% for ALL other expenses. I certainly wouldn't want to live that way.
I'm in CA and I lose nearly half of my paycheck before it gets to me due to federal taxes, state taxes, health insurance, etc. If I want to spend any of my money, the sales tax takes it over the 50% mark.

As it stands now it is illegal for a "mentally deranged teenager" from owning a gun.
The second amendment says otherwise.

Do you touch your wife more often or your phone? it's a pretty intimate device. No sense in living with one you don't love.
More people shake my hand than shake my dick. I can assure you that shaking my hand is not the more intimate experience.
