Meant that as what about they could store.

Why I know. Go play it and you’ll see how they did it.

I am curious who said. You know am audio take will create a great experience.

Using a tape drive is crazy when you think about it. It was slow…. This wasn’t the big tape cartridges. It was a standard Audio tape. Not sure why they could store but it was all sequential

I think it was just a limit of how quick everything ran back then. Also, this was an IBM system that was checked, double-checked, and triple-checked because it was a mission-critical system. IBM used to be known for quality hardware. Hard to imagine because they are such a crap company now but that was the equivalent of a google back then.

My first pc had a tape drive.

It isn’t a disk driver since the OS is not loaded yet. It is the hardware identifying each disk in the SCSI chain. Not sure what else it was doing walking the bus much I know finding all the disk was the longest part.

I think mine takes like 2 minutes. It’s ten years old. I’ve putting off upgrading to the cost of videos cards

I will date myself. These machines had a lot of memory as well which added to the slow reboot. I think it was 16 gigs.

The r series for IBM took forever. The p series was faster but was still slow

The more disk you had, the longer it took. It walked the scsi bus which took forever. So if you had more disk. It took even longer.

Since everything was remote, you’d have to call hands and they weren’t technical. Also no cameras since it was the 90’s.

Now when I restart a vm or container. I panic if it’s not back up in 10 minutes.

In the old days some of the servers took at hour to reboot. That was stressful when you couldn’t ping it at an hour.

I mean…how much agency did she really have? Most likely none.

What I find odd is why wait so long? She is 99. Is this justice for anyone at this point? In the news, several people in their 90s were charged with crimes during WW2. It just seems oddly late, as you said, performative.

For capturing logs? Splunk, Dynatrace, etc. There are a lot of companies that do it better and cheaper.

Datadog is expensive for what they do.

This is my favorite one I’ve seen about it so far

I do.

Most states have medical prisons to detain those with special needs.

Here is an example of one.

Sometimes they’ll be paroled if they are Low risk. That way the tax payer isn’t financially responsible.

Ironically medical care is a right to prisoners but it’s not for everyone else.

One article I read said he likes to fire whole teams and then see which people are asked about. Those are the ones he rehires. If nobody misses you then you were doing a job of value.

From a human level, this is just shitty. It isn’t the way to treat people.

That’s moving the goalpost.

The pay their fair share of income tax.

The issue is there is a way to avoid income.

That’s the problem we need to solve. Technically they’re taking on debt to avoid taxes. Sounds reasonable but those are loans we couldn’t get. It’s just a tax avoidance system.

You didn’t cite anything. When called out, you make a personal attack?

It really boils down to this: why would you go to bat for people who have more than you? Because someone always has more than someone else. Unless you are number one, someone always has more than you do. A fair society is not one that punishes the successful people. You make sure the system is fair.

It does not make sense for people like you to say millionaires “pay their fair share” when they only become wealthy due to exploitation of everyone else who has to work for a living.

I don’t buy that at all. Going to work is not being exploited. I go to work every day, and I am not exploited. I am paid fairly for the work I do.

If you’re over the age of 18 and you still haven’t figured these basic facts out, that means you’re being taken advantage of left and right without even realizing it. Or maybe I am not being taken advantage of. Maybe I am paid fairly for the work I do, and I am happy with my pay. the only thing I am unhappy about is having to pay more than my fair share of taxes for people who don’t want to pay their fair share.
