Which do you think will become the first famous climate refugees? Residents of small island nations losing land and safety, or heat affected landmasses that become uninhabitable due to extreme temperatures and/or wet bulb conditions?

If the inertia didn’t physically damage more than half of those drives, I would be surprised. I don’t think redundancy is a factor in this scenario. This has 3 likely outcomea. Restore from local backup in a different rack, restore from cloud/offsite backup, or the whole company needs to update their resumes.
Not quite as many as Madoff, but some notable folks and investors.
Those are fair points, but I can’t help but chuckle that they were brought to justice because they stole from millionaires and other billionaires to make their ill gotten gains. Probably woulda got away with it if they just stole from the poor and middle class.
You don’t get to make $100 billion dollars and feign ignorance about how you got it and the damage you caused to obtain it.
Don’t you? I can’t think of any instance of justice truly being served to billionaires, can you?
I would love to see Valve allow refunds. This was not an agreed upon stipulation at the time of purchase. If they pull the game from you now so soon after purchase, is it not grounds for a refund? Give Sony the choice to backtrack or lose money.
Financial success is such a huge thing for everyone, I’m glad you see it isn’t everything. I also meant the other things, you seem like a good dude.
Hey, I see you a lot on here, and from one of your other comments in this thread I can see why I might see you more often.
You were probably being sarcastic with that success comment, but just in case you weren’t… Success isn’t a single definition, and I hope you don’t dwell on the cookie cutter model of “success” too much. Be the absolute best you can be for yourself and those you love, that’s success too.
I hope there’s a positive outlook for you healthwise. And despite there being some short sighted shit birds, there’s also some good folk on Lemmy/fedi, and I think you’re one of em. Hang in there comrade.
With America this cursed you would think it’s built on Native American burial grounds.
I threw a number that you couldn’t argue was anything other than theoretical, but go off I guess haha. And I gave you a scenario where the decimal places could be argued are so inconsequential and could be considered exactly average, and yet you completely disregard the point because I guess it’s inconvenient to you lol.
I’ll have to agree, that I guess since I can understand at least an elementary school level math joke and a play on words, Carlin is for me. And since it’s going right over your head, you may be more entertained by Cocomelon or something.
I’m absolutely loving the irony of someone calling George Carlins comedy anti intellectual, using a math joke as evidence, and completely missing the joke. 🤯
The joke isnt about people being perceptibly below average, or it’s not just about that, it’s a fucking math joke. That’s how averages work, not medians. In a scenario where the average IQ were 200, and half the world was 199.999, and the other half was 200.001, half the people would be dumber than average.
That’s a good suggestion, though we also do minor home improvement projects, gardening, and I do minor woodworking and CNC milling. A Ford Maverick or Toyota Tacoma is in my future haha. Hoping to see more hybrid light trucks on the market.
Haha, that’s the plan for me. Light truck with just enough capacity to tow a Polaris.
'13, sold in 2021, hence the inflated value haha.
I make it sound worse than it was. It was as sound as can be drivetrain wise, and every upgrade was carefully picked with a long term lifespan and serviceable parts, like a heim joint control arm set. I loved that thing, it just had cosmetic stories to tell.
I’m glad you found your vibe too. Social phobias have me antsy in a room with more than 20 people, NYC would break me in no time. But more power to you, live the life you love.
I bought a Wrangler new for $27k, hit two trees with it while offroading, lost its spare key, and sold it without working heat 8 years later for 18k. 10/10, would do that again.
Though honestly, I probably wouldnt buy one again either. My wife and I want a light truck for house projects and her short commute, an EV for travel and my commute, and then I’d love a Polaris or something for fun. A Jeep ain’t any of those
They have some models that have ok-ish gas mileage for an SUV. Then there’s the Wrangler. It starts with abysmal gas mileage, and then you upgrade it, and every upgrade adds weight or reduces on road efficiency. It’s really an offroad motorsports vehicle that somehow happens to be road legal.
Yeah, you right haha. Ever since the JK I think it’s been theoretically possible, with effort, and you’ll have water ingress issues permanently.
Jeeps, man. If you’re looking for a comfortable, reliable, fuel efficient vehicle, you’d go elsewhere. But if you want the front windshield to fold down, and for it to perform better off-road than on-road, they got a box on wheels that’s perfect for you.
You have described the experience of Jeep ownership. The heart wants what it wants.
Probably a lifetime of hardship when shit starts hitting the fan for reals. Here’s to hoping you and I are in a good zone when this all collapses.
