I know his transgender daughter cut contact with him; is this his official declaration that he's disowning her?

So he's saying people wouldn't sacrifice much if they were to leave Meta-backed services?

Also, note that doesn't increase the stripe size for old data; it's just for future writes.

But you could copy the old data to a new location and it would take advantage of the new stripe size.

It used to be that you couldn't grow the pool, so you needed all of your drives up-front.

Now you can start with four drives and slowly grow over time to whatever your target goal is. It's much more friendly for home labs/tight budgets.

Finally! #15022, it's been a long time coming...

So many things!

We moved to a new house a couple of years ago and I mapped out the whole property, put it into LibreCAD, designed the space, and have been planting/building it since then. I now have thousands of plants, over 1000 unique types, and a vegetable garden in our 1/3 acre lot. I'm very proud of it, but don't really know how to best share it with the world (or if anyone cares).

I also have a web site that I've been building forever, lots of little programs, things like my irrigation system built from a Raspberry Pi, my homelab, all of the plants that I start from seed in the spring for the garden (thousands under grow lights with heated mats), the hydroponic system... I'm sure there's more.

Only in the sense that they worry about the working class rising up and making their wealth worthless. That is, if they get to stick around to see.

No, we will never be an oligarchy. A plutocracy, yes, but I think money is the deciding factor here.

I started a created a company in 1995 to do web stuff for a very niche market -- I guess now it would be called SaaS. It never really completed or became a money-maker, but it's out there and I still work on it.

First I had problems with IP theft -- I had lots of original photos that people took. Then datasets and articles I had written were copied, so I focused on trying to stop that. Then I found myself spending too much time trying to deal with SEO, then x, then y... It was always a game of wackamole, trying to figure out how to keep ahead.

Throw in the ebb and flow of life's challenges and it always seems like time, money, health, or some combination thereof seemed to come up at just the wrong time (is there ever a good time?)

I'm still plugging away. It's thirty years later and I've retired from my 9-5, so hopefully I can make some real progress.

TechDirt is a larger, well-known site.

I've had similar things happen to my much less popular site and it took a long time to get it resolved (this wasn't with Cloudflare, though).

I'm curious what the process would look like for a small startup or something.

Julian Assange, Edward Snowden...

I think it comes from America's roots -- America was founded on liberty and freedom, and to some extent, questioning authority, and I think since then it's been somewhat cyclical with socioeconomic changes.

It's also part of the American mythos that is perpetuated in film and music. We have superheroes like Batman, Spider-Man, Green Arrow, western heroes like Zorro and the Lone Ranger, movies like Star Wars, The Hunger Games, Bonnie & Clyde, shows like Mr. Robot...

I like LibreCAD, but it's a little too simple sometimes. I miss the power of AutoCAD, but I don't miss its price.

Three things I want are

• being able to assign heights to objects and do 3D stuff
• being able to assign labels to objects (instead of circle3761 I'd like to call it 'fountain' or something)
• splines are really finicky, and you can't do things like a fillet on more complex objects

It took a couple of days to get used to and probably a week of use before I was 100% comfortable, but I find that it meets most of my needs now.
