The EU is still poorer than the US

The poor parts of Eastern Europe like Romania are awash in cheap, fast internet though

My SMB slowness has always been when copying a lot of files, the Finder does something really slow and weird when trying to figure out if the destination can be copied to (dunno if it’s checking for existing files with the same name or what). Once the actual transfer is going it’s fast, but then it hits the next file and pauses for several seconds while it’s doing something

$30/mo for 10 Gbit here in Japan. They just started offering 25 Gbit in parts of Tokyo this month for $200/mo

Hasn’t the Prius also generally used NiMh batteries rather than the Lithium-based chemistries?

That was the first time it really hit home to me how much it hurts to lose real talent from this world.

No deduplication. Before replying I tried doing some research to find where the 1 TB/1 GB rule came from originally but couldn’t find any original source, and everything I found said that was without deduplication, for dedup its supposed to be more like 5 GB/TB (no idea how true that is either)

Yeah, TB, oops, edited thanks!

That whole “1 GB per TB of capacity” is some generic rule someone made up once that doesn’t really have anything backing it up. It depends completely on your use case. If it’s mostly media storage that is rarely accessed, I’m sure that 4 GB is plenty.

I run a beefy TrueNAS server for a friends video production company with a 170 TB ZFS array, right now ARC is using 40 GB of RAM with 34 GB free that it’s not even bothering to touch, I’m sure most of the ARC space is just wasted as well. That’s just one example of how 1 TB = 1 GB makes no sense.
