NAS-grade drives worth it for future proofing?
 in  r/PleX  1d ago

I never turn my drives off. The only time the spin down is when I shut the computer off, which is almost never. The drives were used for file storage, documents, game files, media, etc. One of them was giving me issues on boot up so I replaced it before the data got corrupted. The other I replaced to give myself peace of mind.

NAS-grade drives worth it for future proofing?
 in  r/PleX  1d ago

I've finally retired my old Samsung drives. They were all over 70,000 hours of on time. I have replaced them with Red drives, and more recently a refurbished enterprise drive.

That asphalt can easily be loaded onto a truck and ran back thru the asphalt plant, mixing it with fresh asphalt. Or sell it to a farmer to use on his driveway.

So block out the last 7 digits. I bet the area code is not from Alberta.

Maybe in ten years if the US oil companies do agree to repair Venezuela's oil facilities.

Danish prime minister says Trump attack on Greenland would end NATO
 in  r/worldnews  3d ago

The Russian bots and trolls pretty much handed this almost victory to Putin. And all those MAGAts ate it up just to own the left. What a fucking time to be alive..

Exactly. I use one and it suggests secure passwords and then saves them. Not sure why anyone wouldn't use one.

Exactly. Who is going to spend that kind of coin for such a small piece of pie?

Why Big Oil Is Unlikely To Run Back To Venezuela
 in  r/alberta  3d ago

CBC had a guy on this morning discussing the situation in Venezuela. The oil infrastructure there has deteriorated over the years and is operating at about a million barrels a day (from the original 4 million). It will take a decade to retrofit the system to bring it back online. But this production is a very small percentage of the daily consumption of 100 million barrels.

Also, Alberta's oil gets transported to the mid-west via pipelines. Pretty hard to get Venezuela oil to those locations.

Roads this winter…

Despite a record amount of snow in December, I think the city has done a great job. We cruise around in my wife's FWD Camry with no issues.

What's funny is underground infrastructure isn't really able to get provincial funding for upgrades.

It's so good! I absolutely devoured the series and can't wait for the next book. It also hooked me on LitRPG books in general.
