Apple already said they don't do this. Their income from advertising is so low that it's laughable. They don't want to make money from ads or selling information about you.
You realize you can use a file as a vdev, right? This means if you want to use two 1TB drives as "one" device, you just create a pool using 2x 1TB drives, and then in your new set up you just refer to the file that was created.

You need to think of Larry Ellison the way you think of a lawnmower. You don't anthropomorphize your lawnmower, the lawnmower just mows the lawn, you stick your hand in there and it'll chop it off, the end. You don't think 'oh, the lawnmower hates me' -- lawnmower doesn't give a shit about you, lawnmower can't hate you. Don't anthropomorphize the lawnmower. Don't fall into that trap about Oracle." -- Bryan Cantrill https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
Media companies are making bigger profits than ever, with no signs of it slowing down. Why are they so concerned about the tiny amount of piracy taking place?
1) Most piracy is done by teenagers and people who are broke and cannot afford to watch content legitimately anyway. 2) Piracy is a pain in the ass. Paying a few dollars for content is far easier, so that's what most people will do.
If they want to reduce piracy further, the best way is to make watching content as easy and simple as possible. For example, FOX recently yanked a bunch of their shows from Netflix because they're starting their own streaming service. Most people don't want to pay for multiple streaming services! Their greed is probably going to result in more piracy, as people go "Damnit Firefly is no longer on Netflix. I'm just going to torrent the rest of the episodes." So now instead of making some money, they make none.
And despite all this, like I mentioned earlier, the industry is more profitable than ever. They're basically yelling "THE SKY IS FALLING!!" on a clear, calm day with blue skies and sunshine.
They are all waiting to have a note-7 style catastrophe and then they will adopt the standards as a groundbreaking move. Until then why bother? Its not like Apple is taking *any* flak for the iPhones that catch fire, since they have always had the problem (albeit in a smaller margin vs Samsung).
What a non-sequitur. Why should Apple catch *any* flak for iPhones that catch on fires due to faulty 3rd party battery swaps?
The medium is rather analog and has a powerful error-detection and -correction built in by necessity. This means a classic disk will either give you correct data, or tell you outright that the data cannot be read.
CRC is now considered "powerful error-detection" ?!?!?! Seriously? Are people that ignorant nowadays?
And this EO doesn't impact green card holders either. Yes some were impacted on the initial bungled implementation, but it actually says nothing about green card holders who are resident aliens not immigrants. Those initially impacted and detained should not have been. That was an error in application of the EO, not something actually contained in the EO.
Bullshit. The original application of it included a directive from the White House to specifically include green card holders. The Alternative Facts are strong with you.
All nations should be looking out for their own best interests and not blindly accepting anyone.
I'd love to discuss your evidence that the U.S. has recently been accepting refugees into the country without vetting.
Come on, he has ALTERNATIVE FACTS on his side man! Give him a break! 18 months and at least 9 rounds of interviews and countless background checks, those are plainly just blindly accepting of everyone!
I use ZFS, with raid Z3, so, I personally go for the cheaper stuff. As long as I replace the drives when it fails, I'm good. Unless 3 of them fail at the same time.
But that's why I do a 1-2 month burn in before I deployed my last set of disks.

Oh. Another idiot. What about the ones others took, without you being aware?
You really are a religious prick.

Don't worry about it. One day, systemd will manage it all.
Nice post, "+1 Informative". But "-1 Wrong" about Oracle ever being non-evil. Ever.

Says who? I've done that. A bunch of examples if you google for it.
What in the world are you smoking? Darwin is based on the FreeBSD kernel, a completely different animal.
In other words, because you don't know, you just spout nonsense?
Works fine on my 2TB flash drive. Not sure what you're talking about.
You are expecting facts and reason when [TaylorSwift] Hater's Gonna Hate [/TaylorSwift]
What kind of nonsense is this? Ever since iPhone 4/4S, you can restrict apps from touching your Contacts.

This needs to be a +6
It can be useful. I just got 100k points on a chase card. I can get a return ticket from US to Asia for that. Typically $1000+ for that ticket.
Once I've claimed it and used it, I can just cancel the card, no harm, no foul.
And this is exactly what happens. If you install a new home button, the fingerprint part stops working and it only works as a home button.
Don't you feel all smart now?
You just make shit up? Why is your life so sad?
You mean, something like UL safety testing? All the batteries were safe to use, *IF* used properly.
Samsung squeezed a slightly too big battery into a slightly too small battery compartment.
No amount of independent battery testing will find that problem. The problem is in the design. Nothing to do with battery.

Ah. Anonymous Idiot. CRC is a *VERY* simple checksum that is prone to failure all the time. You might want to read it up on it.
And fuck anyone with families that are separated because someone in that family had the audacity to travel out of the country, right?

Because it doesn't jive with what he has been told to say.

Show me a report where HGST drives are not in the top 20% in terms of reliability.
