Dirt cheap.
Cost = maintenance + servers
Engineers always underestimate the cost of their time.

States can get their hands on things for criminal investigations. Or they can get that data in the infectious disease database but usually that’s carefully anonymized into general steps of ten… But this… This is some messed up shit
ah, yes, prejudice
Reddit blocks VPNs on desktop…
Oh gosh… It’s basically stock market spam
DDG is still the best.
Stop asking this same question repeatedly.
You can do it. I use a powered USB hub and a raspberry pi, and 5 hard drives.
It is a mess of cables but was simple enough.
I also sprang for a UPS because most filesystem’s I tried like zfs and btrfs didn’t appreciate random brownouts from running 4 drives off the pi itself.
Right now they’re xfs and used for a minio install and torrent storage
people get grumpy about containers vs nix vs flatpak and I just wanna say… I’m glad you’re using Linux. yes, you.
The lemmy devs would probably take something sensible like that and flat out shoot it down because they think they know better.
single dev… yeah no.
A CSPRNG is more than random enough for a playlist xD
Take it from someone who works in the field - computers do random well enough rotflol
CSPRNGs are a thing…
As are radioactive sources

So no, computers really can do random xD
It’s the Hulu model
You and I might be talking about different things.
I mean that humans don’t like theoretically true random, as a cool side note

Humans think real random isn’t random 🙃
It’s wild but they see patterns
I grew up in a small town in the rockies and one of the developer outfits had a fancy office with this decor
