    Backblaze B2 is pretty competitive with glacier, from a cost perspective. It's also much more user friendly.

    A big part of the problem is America's welfare system. Since it doesn't exist, the disability system has become a de-facto welfare system. This is terrible for any number of reasons, this article is only highlighting one.

    Been looking for one of those, thanks. If you want to host your own storage, you can't beat the price at time4vps. They have great storage vps's. I'm using a TB one as a backup server and running calibre on it as well.

    Complications are higher for higher rx, I'm around -10, so risky.

  12. I read ebooks on my phone. I can read afew pages while I wait for the kids, I can read on lunch. I read a book or two a week usually.

    When I'm driving i use TTS to listen to the book. I don't particularly like audiobooks because they usually have too much production.

  13. No mod points, but pity this was modded troll, because it's true.

  14. Ipads aren't good enough, but they still seem to be sticking around.. :'(

  15. I don't mind a reminder about what key to press, or what a key does; but I hate unskippable cut scenes.

    It's all part of the problem. Insurance companies make a percentage of what they take in in, so higher prices mean higher premiums. Their incentives are all wrong, but there really isn't a right way to do it that involves profit.

    It's a portable device, you should be doing your heavy lifting elsewhere via ssh or NX.

    I have an hp stream 11" with 1GB of Ram that works great as a portable device running OpenSuSE, KDE Plasma even.

    Too bad it comes with Win10, which it can't even update on the 32GB internal drive.
