It's a bit stilted and no-one would speak like that (at least without sounding pretentious), but it's not bad grammar.

Also, shame on the moron that downvoted you for asking a question.

How can this reality be real? Some omnipotent being is pulling a prank on me.

Interesting to hear that she's able to remember this exists, despite not being able to form any other new memories.

So they’ve just decided that all devices now support HEVC (H.265) and they’ll just disable transcoding? My media centre is on a Pi 3B and that can’t play h265 smoothly. If I had a Synology I’d be pretty annoyed!

I was interested to see that there's an unexplained dip in battery visible on the status page:

I wondered if it was due to a lot of traffic (bots/DDOS/Slashdot effect) but then I noticed it's behind Cloudflare (~~cheating a bit, surely?~~).

edit: I'd missed the bit where he says he doesn't use the caching:

I use Cloudflare's DNS proxy, which handles DNS and offers basic DDoS protection. However, I do not use Cloudflare's caching or CDN features, as that would somewhat defeat the purpose of running this website on solar power and keeping it local-first.

Did they send back the original blade as well? I suppose they may as well since they have no use for it and it may be sentimental for the owner.

We need to avoid what I call super-spreader events.

Or what everyone else calls the Kessler syndrome.

Your argument is that a single backup is sufficient? I disagree, and I think that so would most in the selfhosted and datahoarder communities.

That's a crazy number - 300 AQI is when you get into the final "hazardous" band. 1900 means the needle can go all the way around the dial and comfortably lap the merely hazardous level.

Spent way too long on this...
