Usually that part is supposed to be underwater?

My fix is actively avoid Google news and discover as most of the articles are ragebait or clickbait

Like if storing 100 timestamps in their servers actually costs them like that…

100 timestamps in Unix epoch is something like 400 bytes and can be stored locally on the microcontroller without needing for the cloud

WD writing fake reviews?

There’s no way an actual human wrote such an extensive, detailed but overall dry of content as a review, unless they got it for free in exchange of an enthusiastic review

Edit: the article shows screenshots of clearly fake reviews on Amazon from “verified” buyers. This is what I’m referring to fake reviews

When I read that news I was shocked too.

How possibly nobody tested with even animal blood?

Water and blood have different consistency and fluidity

Who said to kill animals just for this purpose? That would be irresponsible and incredibly asshole

The industry is already dumping too much animal blood as a waste, just take a small drop from something that otherwise goes in wastewater anyway

I would not think that when someone publishes a video called “I bought a $400,000 Ferrari just to destroy it”

He doesn’t specify the product name?

So it was just an one off?

But I wonder: doesn’t it need to be accessible to be read locally? If I mine like 1 petabytes of stuff, then I can upload somewhere else and forget about it?

Otherwise they could mine on a disk, then wipe, start again.

IMHO they found a scapegoat, everyone (me included) loves to blame crypto bros for anything bad, but I don’t see how here can happen

Yes but it should be needed to read it constantly, otherwise it would download petabytes of stuff

And that mined file would be accessed slowly
