I think I’m kind of fucked. I Am forever lost in the depths of Linux. I just read the headline and thought to myself “Who the fuck pays for a Linux terminal and what does it have to do with emulators?”

In my experience it varies wildly in how reliable something is and how much work has to be put into it. From all the different kind of stuff I have worked with the most unreliable equipment was usually the new stuff that is packed with all sorts of electronics and sensors. If you have a high quality machine build back in the days of the GDR maintenance is usually not really needed (except lubricating from time to time).
We once had a robot that was so god damn unreliable, that in the end it was a 5 digit number in reparations just to keep it going. Nothing ever worked and the contractor who sold and maintained it was A completely incompetent shithead. In the end we were able to repair most of the stuff ourselves, but we rarely went a single week without someone having to come and fix something. It also exclusively broke down on the weekends or IB The middle of the night, where its extra expensive for someone to come out. Eventually we threw it out and went to a different brand and now everything works like a charm. No random breakdowns in the middle of the night and the whole system us much more refined.


You clearly know more than Altman.


Theres a reason we have 256TB SSDs. Consumers dont really need them and they are of limited value vor conventional Datacentres.


Its Kind of insane to think about that you have to put so much effort into deshittifying windows 11. At that point its probably easier to switch to Linux (if you dont have anything that forces you to use win 11)


AS long AS you dont plan on selling your Ram I would still ask why you need so much RAM (if youre not running a lot if AI locally)


I can’t even sign up to their website for some wird reason. Guess its their fault then.


They literally just typed whitedate.net/download-all-users/ into the browser and the website willingly gave them a button to download all users.

This isnt the entirety of Spotify. If they would have archived everything in 160kbps OGG Vorbis it would have been 700+TB. Theres A bucket load of songs that literally no one listens to.


They havent released the music files yet


It includes cover art and also preview clips. In this blog post you can read what their database contains: https://annas-archive.li/blog/backing-up-spotify.html


4TB if you include all with popularity=0 iirc


Its also crazy when you realise the amount of knowledge an experienced data analyst could gain from 200gb of metadata.


My soon to be homeserver will have an astonishing 4TB of space. The CPU can handle up to 15TB (according to official specifications), but I am lacking drives that are big enough.
If I ever get the money to build a proper NAS I will 100% start going all in on Storage and start doing stupid shit like mirroring Wikipedia. I will probably not start mirroring the entirety of Spotify (which would be kinda sick NGL.), but I kind of have the problem that I Am kind of a data hoarder that likes to store excessive amounts of stuff I will never need. In the future I will also start seeding all the music I have, but I need a VPN with port forwarding for that beforehand (I’m currently kinda broke, so won’t happen that fast)


Idk, i really disliked the UI and especially the application launcher.


Another good reason for having GUIs is, that you can learn the CLI while not being dependant on it.


Havent done that (except for games ofc)


The wiki can be rough at some times, but you are guaranteed to learn a shit ton about Linux Ehen reading it. It gives you the commands you have to copy/paste most of the time, so its not to bad.
That was my Second thought too.
