That class of storage is very expensive to get your data back. Buying a drive will be cheaper.

Wireshark is the best FOSS for packet inspection, but you’ll have to test the efficacy of your solution on enterprise hardware directly if you’d like to know which ones it works for. You can virtualize many of these FW on Azure cloud for an hour and it won’t cost much, but you’d need to know what you’re doing.
You accept that you are in a difficult situation with no great answers.
You focus on being good company for yourself and treating yourself like someone of value. Be kind and understanding to yourself and try to minimize negative self talk.
You open yourself to creating new connections with others, but without preconceived ideas of success or failure.
You don’t need to buy server hardware, although it is nice. Depending on where you live you might be able to buy some decent second hand server hardware.
If it was me, I would buy new desktop hardware. Here is a fairly decent server that will do almost anything: Go for around 16 or 24 core CPU with high Ghz per core. 64GB or 128GB DDR5 RAM. Your most important factor will be storage speed. Go with NVMe drives. You have some choices here. JBOD: One or more independent M.2 key drives. Software RAID: Use your CPU to manage the RAID configuration. Hardware RAID: Use a RAID controller HBA card to manage the RAID (faster but single point of failure). Use RAID 1 for data protection (can lose one drive and still have all your data), RAID 0 (double the speed of your drives), RAID 10 (best of both but needs double the drives). Choose a motherboard that suits your choices.
Things to take into account: If you go with a RAID controller card, make sure that the PCIe lanes it uses can take the full speed of your RAID configuration or you might be bottlenecked there. Choosing an Intel or AMD CPU doesn’t make much difference. If you are not good with linux distros and don’t want a learning curve, stick with something like Ubuntu LTS 22.04 server. You most likely won’t need any graphics card, but it depends what you want to do.
You can run a minecraft server on an old laptop, so these specs might be overkill, I just put what I would get and it will do almost anything you want to do with it. An 8 core CPU, 16GB RAM, with 1 NVMe drive will also be capable of all your described needs just fine.
Instantly vaporize so a clone can live? No thanks!
Sea of Theives would end up very shallow without the threat of having your progress challenged. There are games like Deep Rock Galactic that cater for this. In SoT there are also ways to minimize getting griefed. Don’t put up an emissary flag. Don’t hold treasure. Doing the original tall tales gives you an instance where pvp is turned off. If you seek treasure, be ready to defend it. I don’t think the game should focus on the once a month players too much.
I had 2000+ hours in Sea of Thieves before I stopped playing. I enjoyed the multiplayer aspect - meeting new people and having long chats without big groups (max crew of 4). It also has decent pve content. But the devs did a terrible job at bug fixing and it felt like they cared more about the lore/story telling than the sandbox aspects and combat which is the core of the game.
I wonder how those people still working there feel
I dont think you understand what I mean. Active censorship of topics and discussions that go against the mod teams agenda is the problem. The content is provided by the users, the mods should not be deep throating you your media. They are there to moderate… a discussion… go look up those definitions.
My thinking is that for communities with names where its important to be impartial (like for instance a country’s name) they should have some way to appeal to the instance owner to take back the name from a mod team that you can show evidence is repetitively being unfair or biased. Something like a poll. How that could be implemented and protected from abuse, I’m not sure. For communties where its obvious its a company managing their social image, I have no problem with more harsh moderation. My main problem is political coercion and control of the media.
At the moment there is still nothing stopping people with an agenda from creating a community and then censoring its posts to fit within their narrative. Reddit suffered from this and other than making your own instance and trying to get people to move over there is not much you can do here either. If you’re struggling to think of a legitimate problem: /c/countryname can get created by person affiliated with political party x and then control the content to be in favor of said party.
Sometimes you get coin gifts if your posts go viral but yes the free awards have been gone for more than a year at this point. Its possible that many users have them saved up from the past.
Rate limiters work on IP source. This is easily bypassed with a rotating proxy. There are even SaaS that offer this. The trick is to not use large subnets that can be easily blocked. You have to use a lot of random /32 IPs to be effective.
I’m with you on that. AI is the future. Just because xxx big corp is doing AI training for their closed source product doesnt mean that open source models won’t also benefit. If you post to a public space you should expect it to be read.
r/ProgrammerHumor going permanently dark was a watershed moment for me
I’m thinking of making a RSS feed generator tool and aggregator that would support OAuth for subscription based services. Just doing some research first.
