Just heard about this new startup, seems like a very interesting concept, i'd like to see /g/'s thoughts on it

Not even /b tier good try though.
Other than magnetic tape, what storage medium boasts a high resilience to outright failure over long periods of time?
Bitrot to a degree is acceptable but total device failure is not, capacity need only be 4GB capacity. Device will be nearline WORM intended to protect metadata.
Was investigating old flash memory with larger cells like compact flash for this task but wanted input from you guys.
Reduncancy is the best solution. Having your data backed up on multiple media is more reliable than any one format.

I will keep two separate devices with intraspaced redundancy to repair stored metadata and mirror two of them for device level redundancy but the internet seems devoid of any reliability stats on older flash memory like CF and barring the write cycle issue I wanted to know if they're a safe bet for storing cold and periodically rotating to refresh the cells and repair flipped bits in a small amount of data.

Have you looked at M-Disc?

Heт
>>61809765
is this seriously why people are saving tiny fucking images you can't read and then reposting them?
Can "games" made with Twine even be considered games?
All of the ones I've played tend to just be shitty little stories with clickable links to progress. It's less an even lesser version of visual novels.
e.g. https://gains.itch.io/hygge
Someone made one for the Google manifesto

Is this a game?
Hmm...
Heyo /g/, what do you guys find to be a good technology career? I know computer scientist and software engineers make bank and is somewhat enjoyable. I hear that IT is a fun job, but sometimes can pay poorly.
Coming from aspiring hardware engineer
go larp somewhere else 'hardware engineer'

Just spend a month studying CSS HTML and JS and become a front end """"web developer""" if you're looking for easy money.
I updated the driver for my HD 8650 and ever since then it's doing this weird thing where dark content on the screen gets darker if a bright window (like an empty notepad window) is placed next to it. This is in Windows 8.1.
I booted into Xubuntu on the same hardware and the effect was gone, so it's definitely the Windows driver, not the display and not my eyes.
Anyone else seen this?
>>61808970
Sounds like some dynamic brightness setting turned on somewhere.
>>61808992
I've been poking around in the catalyst control center and there were two suspicious checkboxes checked but they were under the Video playback section. ("Color Vibrance" and "Brighter Whites")
I misspoke (typed) - I have an HD 6850, not an 8650, and this part has been put on legacy support and no new drivers will be released. I rolled back the driver and the problem went away. Though now I'll be getting crashes from shitty Guns of Icarus Online...
Can anyone recommend me a simpler access.log parser? One that is written in C ideally, and uses only basic libraries? Ideally it would update every few seconds while I ssh. I'm trying to view activity for my site wiby.me and don't care for all the out-of-the-box web interface solutions that are also a pain in the ass to install.
apachetop or ngxtop (python) are good
>>61808697
Interesting. Installed in seconds. Thank you patriarchy!
What do you listen to when you code?

Addons not gone but on the chopping block.
What up /g/ i currently have an iPhone 6s and my big ass hands are too big to use it comfortably. Where is a site that is reliable and i can buy an iPhone 7+ for cheaper than anywhere else?
apple.com
Unless you want to look at eBay, iPhone's really stick to msrp.

It's a new week. Time for more shilling. All text is a WIP.

Is VR practical yet? Or is it still in the beta phase? I haven't heard anything new about VR yet.
>>61807990
Well define practical?
I don't think there's a lot of amazingly good VR games out there right now.
