6 way striped rust with a SSD journal is what I use -- experimentally 5 times faster than one SSD and 6 times the capacity for about 3 times the price.
You can get a very solid 1TB SSD for $450, which is cheaper per GB ($0.45) and much, much faster. You can get a serious enterprise 1TB SSD (10-year warranty).
Those are both SATA devices. Useless to me -- no multi-initiator.
But the so called "ALS" thingy seems to be an attempt to use the Franco-German model, and if they're doing it with only two people I think they're doing it wrong.
Except that won't work now since package maintainers can explicitly set their packages to depend on systemd-sysv.
If a package depends on systemd either it really needs systemd or it doesn't. If it doesn't then that's a bug to be fixed. If it does and the "packages must work with all init systems" proposal had passed then the package would have been removed from Debian and the anti-systemd people still wouldn't be able to use it.
Don't underestimate the Legion of Honour -- Arnold Schwarzenegger has one.
(I think the French give them to people like Jerry Lewis and Arnold Schwarzenegger just to poke fun at America, like "look, that's the best you have!").
If skynet vists 4chan that explains why it's trying to destroy humanity.
And I have to reconsider what side I'm on. (Like hell I do, who wasn't rooting for bad Arnie in Terminator 1 -- he had 6502 assembly language scrolling inside his head, I could emphasise with that.)
The "singularity" does not necessarily require artificially intelligent computers vs. pseudo-intelligent computers. It only requires an exponential growth of change in technology, mediated or enabled by some sort of computation.
Not even exponential growth (which is a good thing for singularity believers as exponential growth is, of course, impossible).
For a "singularity" you just need the top of the S curve to be way, way over our heads.

You keep your disks online for more than five years?
You don't think I've tried?

You mean those 15k drives which cost as much as SSDs?
Ten years ago?
(I actually have a couple of 10 year old SSD's -- thousands of dollars for 4GB.)
But make sure to put the SSDs into the RAID a few months apart -- it would be embarrassing to have them all fail at the same moment.
So I'm dreaming about the racks of 15k drives I have?

Field ambulances have two people.
Only 2?
When the Sapeur-pompiers premier secours truck turned up the last time I called them they had four people onboard.
If I ever needed a SMUR they'd turn up with a doctor, a nurse, a paramedic and a driver.
(This is in France).
but if they were responsible they certainly owe no one any apologies.
Because Belgium is exactly the same as Iran.
It is utterly impossible to become president of Russia without KGB^W FSB support
Which do you prefer?
The Commission who are unelected,
The president of the comission is elected, now.
The Commissioners or a replacement institution needs to be democratically accountable.
The commision is accountable to the elected parliament.
Yes, it could be better, but the problem is in the member states, who resist all attempts to increase democracy in the EU tooth and nail.

Yup, I jost gtot a whole burst of notifications at around midnight. Looks like their e-mail system was all fucked up.

In French we say "cheeseburger".
Duh, guess I should have read the parent post. What a maroon I am.

Come on, in the real world the CEO of the contractors gets a 50M bonus even if the thing doesn't fucking work at all.
The real version of skynet would probably look something like day 1 of the Obamacare website. John Connor would destroy it by attempting to log in.

In this universe we obey the laws of thermodynamics.
Exponential growth is almost always an S curve.
It'd be pretty funny if the top of the AI S curve was lower than where we're at.
Being serious: Also pretty odd -- we have an existence proof for things as smart as us. Whether smarter things than us can exist is an unknown.
Or, maybe, people are just bored of the Simpsons?
(I bet there was a Simpsons episode about that, but please don't tell me about it).
Your post is somewhat incoherent.
You start out saying that the youth of today haven't learned what we learned, then you say but the world of today isn't what it used to be.
Arrested. I don't think that word means what you think it means.
