Always makes me laugh when people say HDD is dead… as a home user, when I can buy solid state storage in the 20TB range for my home server for less than a HDD… I’ll consider believing them.

They simply don’t make any consumer SSD larger than 8TB and for the SATA SSD side, it’s well over £500 for one of them, meanwhile you can get 20TB HDD for about £300 here.

Last year the price of a Samsung 870 SSD was £300, I bought one, they’ve not been below £500 since.

I never thought I’d hear a positive school shooting story come out of the USA… is that ‘light’ enough to be banned from the Fascist States of America

I used Anonine (Sweden based) for 10yrs and never had a single problem visiting any site… I use a VPN 24/7 because I value my privacy and don’t want every fucker tracking my everymove and that includes my ISP.

Recently switched to Proton because streaming from legal sites like iplayer and netflix had become impossible unless it was turned off. Proton actually works with them.

Look… if you’re the sort of person who still uses chrome and thinks a vpn chrome extension is the bees knees… well… that’s on you.

P.S. Microsoft have the perfect tool for you too… it’s called ‘recall’

Have you ever heard of the ‘loudness wars’ of the end of the 90’s.

As CD players became standard in cars, they decided the best way to counter road noise, was the max out the levels on new releases… which created a horrible sound… but worse still, then then applied this to re-releases of older albums too.

I had originals (still do) of a lot of 90’s bands, especially grunge, metal and indie bands… and I was round a friends once and they played an album I had and it sounded awful. So I went and got my copy from the car and played it on their system and the difference was ridiculous.

My dad had a 70’s twin tape deck stereo when I was a kid, it had balance sliders on it for recording tape to tape… which we found out was perfect for copying computer games that more modern stereos struggled with. It was a counter top system rather than a tower and probably at least close to 1m wide. I remember him replacing it at the end of the 80’s with some weird little stereo that could play both sides of an LP without turning it over.

Every Nazi was ‘just following orders’ did that make them less of a Nazi?

The answer is no… going along with ‘orders’ is being complicit with them, following fascist orders makes you a fascist… so yes… he is actually a fascist… and that now makes you a fascist apologist.

‘It’s going to be really embarrassing for me’

“As it should be, you fascist pig”… would have been my reply.

Friend: Tell me we live in a fascist country, without saying we live in a fascist country

I was given one of these by my brother when I was about 10yrs old, as he’d just bought some new fangled Pioneer with multi CD changer.

I had it for a few years before getting my own system with CD player… the innards were removed as they were failing, and I used it on it’s side to keep all my records in with my stereo on top.
