Here is the link to BACKBLAZE... https://www.backblaze.com/ Cheap and reliable backup for your personal storage will become increasingly important. One day, you may even want to store the contents of your brain on Backblaze, if Musk gets Neuralink working right. So... The question is... Is BACKBLAZE a superior option compared to Google Drive, and Google Storage options? In what ways? Advantages? Disadvantages? I have heard people say that this is the site to ask questions to cutting-edge CIS people. And, I want to know. What are your thoughts? Will opensource storage be the way to go? What about storing all data in a distributed way? Just as distributed computing was the NEXT BIG THING, about two decades ago? Please stay to the point this time. Good!

Has Google become the NEW Mad Men? Looks that way. Then, how can we protect ourselves from Google? MORE OPENSOURCE PRODUCTS, used widely? More international government support for development of open-source alternatives to Google throughout the world, especially in science and in our schools? What do you think?

I say....YES! What do you say? My good friend von Karajan is a Super Man, for SURE! ?

Not bs. She was sent to high school before she was sent to university. If she had first been sent to university, then that would be bs. Or... ba

A troll is a person who posts P&G when PNG should have been posted. This is P&G: This is PNG: Trolls sometimes confuse these two places. Still, Trolls can be forgiven for doing so, obviously.

Not quite a million... Anyone can help to answer this question for FREE. First begin with the Wikipedia definition: If you do not agree with this definition of a TROLL...then... Next, please go to the page which allows you to edit this definition/entry: But... Do you want MY definition of a TROLL? Or, not?

Why? Flying a single-engine in P&G is already thrilling enough...

In Pattaya?

So very interesting that you should mention this... Just because... I now have BB KING cranked up so loud (with my 10 loudspeakers)... That I can feel BB KING's guitar vibrating my balls. This is what I call interesting. I FEEL the RESONANCE. MY BALLS ARE NOW RESONATING.... Not sure the exact frequency.... (I think it must be my two SUBWOOFERs that are making my Oysters wobble.)

Sounds very boring without typhoons every two weeks in the summers.

If you wish an uncontrollable environment, then why stay in Isaan? Given your love of environmental instability, you should move to the East Coast of Taiwan. You will enjoy never-ending earthquakes and typhoons, soon after arrival. Take your Thai GF with you, too. No doubt, she will thank you for it.

Did you load your own?

So...What are you now? A one-armed paper hanger?

I bet you never sold a WEATHERBY MARK V SAFARI CUSTOM SHOP .460 WBY MAG Or, have you ever even fired one? Some say it might be overkill. But, then, it all depends upon what one is hunting... I had one. I lost it. My warm gun. I have never shot a heavier one. Gave me so much pleasure. Every time. I almost came Every time I pulled the trigger.

Now you are talking! Now, you are talking about... I thought you were a baker of bread, Not a follower of Classical Mechanics.

Been there. Done that. IFR The problem with learning to fly is... Once you learn to fly... Then, you gotta decide where to fly. Otherwise, you just fly around in circles, Practicing takeoffs and landings. Sometimes, you go on night flights. Sometimes, you practice emergency landings. After awhile... The thrill is gone.

Wow, Man, I have NO Time ... I have NO Time to reply to you... Instead... Just enjoy the music... Or... Go back to school. Yes, I know the video does not answer your question, entirely. However, just enjoy the music. Or... Buy this.... I plan to buy one. Why? Just, to minimize THRASHING... Of COURSE!

And after that... When the "thrill of the forum" provides no thrill? Then what?

My Friends, Do you ever get the feeling that the thrill is gone? How do you counteract these negative feelings? Any thoughts? (Any thoughts besides...listening to BB King?) I think our friends are now returning.... Nothing remains the same. Life, by its very nature, is always evolving. Natural Selection, and all that....

I have only One piece of FINAL advice for you: IF you might ever aspire to become a scientist, then you will need to constantly remind yourself to do one thing: You will need to refrain from making blanket statements, no matter how difficult this may be for you. Blanket statements (especially when they are blatantly false, as in your case) can never be logically defended. This is why you are not a scientist. And, this is one of several reasons why scientists do not make blanket statements. The above is my gift to you. But let it not be said that you have not, also, given me a great gift this morning, and I am most grateful for that which I have received. Your gift to me was to remind me what I once knew, but had forgotten. I am speaking of a humorous but true observation made by my friend, Mark Twain, who quipped: “Never argue with a fool, onlookers may not be able to tell the difference." But this fond remembrance of Twain's quote was not your only gift to me, today. You have also reminded me, once again, but more forcefully, of the fact that time is precious; And the time that we have should not be wasted following what some would consider to be... TRIVIAL PURSUITS

"The following animation demonstrates how SSD drives can thrash in the presence of random writes; it is a part of Working with cheap flash drives by Arnd Bergmann." https://lwn.net/Articles/428799/ a. Everybody knows that "thrashing" can occur NOT ONLY in the HDD context. (Everybody BUT you, it seems.) b. If you need further evidence that YOUR STATEMENT, quoted above, is FALSE...then...please just click on these links, and read further: c. Of course, I realize that no matter how many sources I reference, you will never be satisfied. But this is not my fault. And, the misconception is not mine. Here, in the above case, the article is about a decade old. Still, this short article is speaking of thrashing on SSDs, which is something that you stated NEVER HAPPENS. (FALSE)

I am VERY WELL AWARE of how this term THRASHING came to be used. I have been using HDDs for a long time. I have ears, too, and I know the sound. However, I was not referring to HDD thrashing. I was referring to I/O limitations. I was referring to increasing main memory. I was referring to using a RAMDISK by utilizing some of the 64GB of DDR4 memory, which would reduce read/writes to SSD/HDD when doing heavy multitasking, maybe with AUTOCAD running, or whatever, while also using an internet browser. The point is that you stated that THRASHING is a term applied only in the context of HDDs. And...this is FALSE. You can read your statement, above. Your comment is still in this Topic, for all to see.

I stated that increasing RAM would reduce thrashing: "b. I can also use part of the 64 GB to create a RAMDISK and work SUPER FAST. No more THRASHING of read/writes to SSD or HDD, and this means that my internet experience will be much improved." And, this is TRUE. You stated that this was nonsense. You also stated that thrashing does not occur on solid-state-devices. (This is FALSE) Do you wish to re-think your opinion of what may or may not be nonsense? Please refer to this definition of THRASHING: What does this state? "The term may also be used to refer to any situation in which multiple processes are competing for the same resource, and the excessive swapping back and forth between connections causes a slowdown." This is no more, and no less, than I stated in my original comment. Yet, you seem to disagree. Why? Everybody knows that this is true. Why don't you?

Here is an example of Processor Cache thrashing which does NOT involve any HDD. Or, is this also too simplistic for you? Seems you are wrong...again. The term "thrashing" is still alive and well, and still being used by IT-CIS guys around the world...
