It’s so rare that we get a new video, but it’s always a special day when it happens.

I think the author’s intended implication is absolutely that it’s a dollar because the USA invented the computer. The two problems I have is that:
It’s just a lazy bit of thinking in an otherwise excellent and internationally-minded article and so it stuck out to me too.
The stupid thing is, all the author had to do was write “kind of tells you who invented ASCII” and he’d have been 100% right in his logic and history.
This guy’s got great taste in films, I’ll have to watch some of those that I haven’t and then I get to enjoy the book cover.
It allows me to connect into the house via the VPS without opening ports or knowing my home address.
Nowadays there are various companies offering tunnelling services, but my setup has been working for a long time and I see no reason to change.
It’s the root OS; that Pi is a media centre in the living room (plus it’s taken on a few extra duties since it’s always online). It’s been going for a good few years now, 8+?
I’ve been running OSMC (Kodi on Debian) plus a few useful things like maintaining a reverse SSH connection to a VPS.
I plan to switch over later when it makes sense to - the nice thing about Backblaze is that it scales with your storage, whereas with Hetzner you have to jump from 1 TB to 5 TB.
It’s for storing a few terabytes of fairly static media (for the most part, write-once). The codebases using it don’t natively support object storage (and will be in Docker containers).
It’s on a Hetzner server, and Backblaze (even after the price increase) will be a lot cheaper than normal drives, although their storage box option is probably better value over about two GB.
Some great lines in this film. Perhaps my favourite is
Holland March: “Sweetheart, how many times have I told you? Don’t say ‘and stuff’. Just say ‘dad, there are whores here’”.
I watched this for the first time the other day and was shocked they didn’t make more (particularly as I’d noticed some other The Nice Guys titles in imdb but they’re all shorts or what would have been DVD extras once upon a time). Given that this was initially developed as a series, I’m sure they have more stories to tell, It’s a real shame.
I hate seeing new IPs not get traction as it just leads execs to churn out more of the same old remakes and repeats.
When I last used Debian, I found myself very annoyed with the lag in the package manager. This is a very long time ago (15 years?), so probably isn’t the case any longer. However, due to laziness (or proactively avoiding a bikeshed rabbit hole) I didn’t check and just chose Ubuntu over Debian the other day because of that.
Yeah, the original thin clients were basically useless without the server they connected to, but nowadays even computers the size of a stick of gum are plenty powerful enough for consuming webpages and videos.
You still need peripherals like mouse, keyboard and screen but you might get them as part of the package (sounds like you already have them though).

I love that it’s got the summary at the start, very respectful of readers’ time 👍
What did you move on to, and what features made you move?
my account is still 100% storj token funded
That seems to be the key bit, since everyone can use up to 25TB (if they can pay for it). Are you also hosting a node to earn credits tokens?
From the first paragraph:
And best of all, NASA says it will be “ad-free, no cost, and family-friendly”
Looks like you’re one of those who just assumes they know what a story’s about after glancing at the link title…
It’s long running, so you want a database so you can store your state. If you’re storing state, locking it into a state machine makes sense.
I do agree with some of the commenters that making it closer to an event source design would make more sense still.
