  • I use B2 for my restic Backup. Currently i have about 100GB stored there and it says i have about 100,000 files stored.

    With the adjusted calculation of the blog you posted for 10TB of 50KB files, adjusted to the mean file size of my restic repository 10 TB of 1MB files:

    Transaction fees: 10,000,000 / 10,000 x $0.004 = $4

    My Laptop has a mean file size of about 16 MB per file on the local restic repository.

    EDIT: Forgot a resume, i do not think you need to worry about it too much. But maybe verify the amount and type of data you want to backup and use calculators to calculate the real cost, also you can always test it by creating a test dataset and then do a backup and recovery scenario and then use this to derive an estimate.


  • I think you heavily are misinterpreting the " The Distro does not matter" argument.

    Usually ppl want a distro that “does x” and the answer will be “the distro does not matter, use the one that suits you the mkst”.

    The argument “The disteo does not matter” does not come from the user preferences site of things but feom the technical " i want to video edit, “i want to game” etc.




  • The point is, the anecdotal evidence that you mentioned has nothing to say about other points you are making.

    Just because product X runs better in a use case with software Y, does not mean product X is bad.

    I do not want to come across like a ubiquity fan boy, since i only use it very targeted privately but the stuff is good, it’s supported and a plug and play solution without the cloud. Exactly what fits the bill for what it’s asked for here.

    It is run in operation by thousands of businesses. Does it have problems, sure, like every other brand.

    Have run openWRT myself on one of the latest lite APs, was good. Have not noticed a significant difference in the usage between both.







  • “History started yesterday” vibes. Nato had been amassing forces on their borders prior to the Russian invasion, and had already pushed east into former Warsaw pact territories after the dissolution of the Soviet union despite promises not to do so.

    A ‘promise’ that has been debunked often enough. Used by the oppresor to justify his actions.

    Also since Ukrain IS no part of the NATO it does even if it would be true, which it is not make even less justifications.

    You make a pact and then leave something that important out of the official part? Common.


  • Tailscale controls the routing, thus the traffic. They control which keys get trusted. They most of the time distribute and develop the software.

    It would be quite easy for them to start snooping on traffic, while on the internet anything basically is additional encrypted, that would not apply so broadly to the traffic that get sent via tailscale especially the self hosted crowd, a lot of that traffic would be http and unencrypted.



  • I think it’s not congruent with wanting to improve jellyfin if your reflex is immediately to say that nothing is truly secure.

    At no point in life I said that.

    Jellyfin has proven with the latest RCEs that they can handle relevant critical security vulnabilities.

    As always, jellyfin does not have that much relevant contributers, and a lot of work has been done in recent time. It is very easy to lean back and say what they should or should not have been doing.

    Breaking Clients would make the project not usable for many ppl or at least decrease the usability.

    As i have already said, getting uodatea on those closed eco systems can be a nightmare.
