Wait, what is Spam then? I thought that was the whole thing… Sp(iced H)am.
I’m going to be disgusted by the answer, aren’t I?

Whichever way you read it, the first response is an answer to a comment we can’t see… So to me it “makes sense” in both directions?
Possibly I’m not Twitter enough for this type of humour.


Yeah I guess it probably makes more sense when it’s my business… Maybe not if you’re an employee at some corporate randomly hosting backups of your dog photos.


I have a 120TB unraid server at home, and a 40TB unraid server at work. Both use 2 x parity disks.
The critical work stuff backs up to home, and the critical home stuff backs up to work.
The media is disposable.
Both servers then back up to Crashplan on separate accounts - work uses the Australian server on a business account, home used the US server on a personal account.
I figure I should be safe unless Australia and the US are nuked simultaneously… At which point my data integrity is probably not the most pressing issue.
Which is the correct chronological order for this exchange? Top to bottom, or bottom to top?


Who cares why they did it?
It proves they can and do alter the “archived” website, so it’s usefulness as a source is completely gone.
My Facebook feed looks nothing like that, nor most of the (exaggerated?) complaints in the replies.
Mine is full of content from people I know, local community groups, and pages I follow.
If I scroll long enough to run out of actual local/ subscribed content it will start feeding me other stuff, but it’s usually at least somewhat relevant. If it’s not I just hit the X to say not interested and usually take the opportunity to get off the damn thing for a while.
Facebook does a lot of stupid crap but these sort of lazy observations smack of some nerd pandering to the cool kids about how lame their parents are to get some acceptance or something equality as cringe.
I have literally worn the same brand and style of clothes for well over a decade. There’s photos of me from 12 years ago and I have the same Dickies pants and corporate(?) style polo on.
All the money I’ve saved on stylish clothes over the years have been spent more productively on… actually no I’ve wasted it. But still.
I wear a uniform during the week, and another on the weekend apparently.


Once We Were Spaceman is great, but they need more Firefly references I reckon.
Yes, for being on call.
Back when mobile plans were expensive and coverage was terrible, pagers were fantastic. They’d get the message inside a concrete basement where a mobile had no chance of reception.
To get around the lack of acknowledgment on pagers, our plan had a “resend page 3 times every 15 minutes until acknowledged by return call, if not acknowledged ring these mobiles until answered” type setup. Worked very well for emergency after hours calls.
Now we have Pushover.
Really? Right in front of my carrot?



Who cares? Upvote what you like, downvote what you don’t. Who cares if someone has a whinge.


Put me on your list too

Feels like this is the sort of important information OP should have included in their post.


I’ve been using Nextcloud since it forked from OwnCloud (… and used OwnCloud before that). It’s gone from a VPS, to bare metal on dedicated hosting, and now self hosted as a docker container because we’ve finally got fibre internet.
I’ve got around 6TB or so hosted for my small business, with shared directories for different levels of file access, shared contact lists, shared calendars, and a publicly accessible area for things like email attachments (works with a Thunderbird plugin to automatically host and link large attachments with a password) and uploads from customers (they can only upload, no viewing or deleting).
It’s incredible, and I’ve never had the issues people complain so much about. The worst I ever experienced was using snap and occasionally an automatically updated version simply wouldn’t work… So I’d just roll back to the last version and manually update a few months later when I remembered.
Currently using the Nextcloud AIO docker image which includes Borg backups. They get stored on another disk to Nextcloud, which gets automatically backed up to Crashplan.
Someone check in with any step relatives he has, this smacks of projection
