Communicating on the internet is a lot like hanging out in a pub. You say stuff to your friends, you don't expect it to be held against you for eternity. Ephemeral communications are pretty healthy for humans, especially as we change over time.

You pay $90 a year to a Usenet provider, $15 a year to a Usenet indexer, and get gigabit+ download speeds of any TV show or Movie you want and they automatically get fetched via https://Sonarr.tv or https://Radarr.video

My usage was "setup a basic single node for testing, upload a file with mc client, delete a file with mc client". They failed that test. It was responding with 200s but the file was never deleted.

There are loads of issues like this on their github: https://github.com/minio/minio/issues/8873

Be warned that their code quality is pretty bad. There was a bug I was dealing with last year where it did not delete objects but returned the correct HTTP response code indicating it did. This was widespread, not just some edge case I encountered. Their broken test suite doesn't actually verify the object on disk changed. I tried to engage them but they blew me off.

They're already scanning your photos to classify the images. That's how you can search for photos by descriptions. They also can OCR the text in images. Seems like a weird time to start getting angry about your privacy being invaded

Kia Rio is #1 for fatalities. I've owned one, they're terrible cars. Drove one from Chicago to Seattle and back. Gotta crank the music to max to drown out the road and engine noise. It's a nightmare on wheels
