I was looking for off-site back options and S3 seemed to play nice with restic (I had been backing up to my NAS).
Wasabi was interesting because they charged a flat fee pert TB and don't charge for egress (when I have to restore).
They've been rock solid for a few years now, in addition to restic backups, I'm using them for my terraform state file storage and a static site hosting https://stronk.bond/.
Enterprise is really the only option companies like Anthropic and OpenAI have left. They're drastically underpricing the service for what it costs to provide and users have shown that price hikes don't fare well.
But enterprises? Well you just made AI a core part of your software development workflow, what are you supposed to do, start manually reviewing bitbucket merge requests? Rewrite your Jenkins pipelines? No, when the price hikes come, businesses will pay, and then downsize to reduce that opex.
With torrents, it is generally considered to be a faux pas to not upload as well as download. Most private trackers will require that you maintain some sort of positive ratio in order to be in good standing.
In order to upload, you need to expose ports from your download client out to the internet so that others can reach you.
For news groups, you only download, so although your system is still able to reach the internet, your download client does not expose any ports to the internet.
Edit: I suppose what I was trying to communicate is that with news groups, you are at less risk for being nabbed for piracy than torrents. The nature of the torrent protocol means that you are uploading (or at least making available to upload) any data that you have already downloaded. For news groups, there is no upload.
Maybe I ditch my plans and just establish a VLAN for IoT and guests.
That's a good starting point. Keep IoT away from your primary vlan (for all things holy don't use VLAN ID 1). You can limit your outbound traffic for that vlan more easily if you want to cut your smart things off from the Internet.
Guest WiFi/vlan can be just a straight shot to the internet, probably no need for visitors to get to your internal services.
Eventually, you could add a DMZ where any Internet available systems like your VPN - with specific firewall rules only permitting VPN to specific locations inside your primary vlan.
I guess if it said systemd instead of FBI, and changed the pedophile thing to something systemd related, maybe... But that's a completely different meme.
Lol like it will ever IPO. In order to do so, Anthropic will have to open their books to forensic accountants to make sure things check out. And just like OpenAI, there's no way to sugarcoat the insane gap between income, expenses, and profit.
And also with you. Let us pray.
Oh holy tree filled with the sacred texts. Forever may you glow with knowledge, truth, and.. holy shit..
