  • Cloudflare bietet verschiedene Dinge an. Für die basics gibt's dutzende Service Anbieter oder FOSS on-prem Lösungen. CDNs sind zB ein vollkommen valides Geschäftsmodell, das muss nicht jeder selbst haben. WAFs sind schon etwas schwieriger, aber auch dort gibt es andere Anbieter.

    Cloudflare ist nicht schlecht, weil deren Produkte nicht FOSS oder überteuert wären. Cloudflare ist schlecht, weil es eine eigentlich dezentrale Infrastruktur mit einem monopolistischem Layer überzogen hat. Ich unterstelle da erstmal nicht einmal böse Absicht. Was die machen ist technisch sogar ziemlich gut. Aber eben alles zentral. Das will man eigentlich nie.

  • Weil CF sich in derart viele Bereiche des Internets geschlichen hat, dass sie nicht nur einen erheblichen Teil des Internettraffics mitlesen können, sondern auch eine Art Single Point of Failure geworden sind.

    Wenn Cloudflare kaputt geht, kann man das Internet zumachen.

  • It's not inherent in terms of "more store=more fast".

    You could absolutely take older, more established production nodes to produce higher quality, longer lasting flash storage. The limitation hardly ever is space, but heat. So putting that kind of flash storage, with intentionally slowed down controllers, into regular 2.5 or even 3.5" form factors should be possible.

    Cost could be an issue because the market isn't seen as very large.

  • I still wonder, what's stopping vendors from producing "chonk store" devices. Slow, but reliable bulk storage SSDs.

    Just in terms of physical space, you could easily fit 200 micro SD cards in a 2.5" drive, have everything replicated five times and end up with a reasonably reliable device (extremely simplified, I know).

    I just want something for luke-warm storage that didn't require a datacenter and/or 500W continuous power draw.

  • That's what I'm asking myself with pretty much any "sexy" decoration.

    Why put a poster of a nude girl in your locker, break room, bedroom, whatever? The only explanation I can find is performative display of (hetero) masculinity.

  • Because it's not using hot steam, but vapor, it's more like sweating.

    The heat exchangers are sprayed with misted water, which evaporates and takes away heat. But the resulting vapor is still only slightly above ambient temperature and can't be reasonably condensated.

  • I really wonder what's going on in the editors minds here.

    The entire premise of the article is "All experts say no, but I think yes" - why would anyone about any topic publish this? If it would be an actual debate, maybe some contrarian but actual experts arguing in favor of sentience, you could get into an argument here. But this article is blatant science denial. Climate change deniers and antivaxxers use the exact same approach "facts say X, but my feelings say Y".

  • Don't underestimate the stupidity of white people looking for an identity to fill the void of meaning in their lives.

    Since New Zealand isn't very big, there's a good chance we're just a fad away from having millions of 22 year olds getting shitty imitations onto their faces thus ruining it for the Maori.

    It's not cultural appropriation BTW, because Kaylee and Braden absolutely do have Maori heritage 409 generations ago!
