I stopped reading at “literally”, which was early-on.
They don’t have to participate, but it’s a good article to raise awareness for your non tech oriented friends and family.
This is a massive problem, but at the very least it’s happening in an era of very cheap data storage.
I don’t know who here likes Horizon games, but I like how many parallels the writers put in the game that reflect the state of the world.
a bit of a game spoiler
Like the whole premise of the story is exactly what this article mentioned: a multi billionaire CEO with a god complex completely wiped out the entire human database to erase any information of how he destroyed the world to protect his ego and image. Also why the new world is basically just bronze age level tribes.
48TB rust in raidz2 reporting in
8TB reporting for duty. 🫡😂
Seriously though. What’s the best help to lend out say 2tb?
Edit:This is a serious question.
I think it was annas archive that has a page for what data they need mirrored the most based on your storage space available. After looking into it.
You can take a look at Interplanetary File System and see what data you want to mirror.
IpFS like ddh says makes the most sense probably. But you can archive a lot of raw text. Try to save what you think the Nazis would burn. I doubt archive.org survives many more years. Leaked archives of american research papers too.
Check again…
That’s “free space”. The 414 represents ~62% of my space (38% used). I’m at just under 700 for usable space. And 2 disks are out of the array at the moment because the backplane went stupid. Turns out that it’s a pain in the ass to open server chassis to replace a backplane when you have to unmount 70 disks. And I’m pretty lazy.
