Nuclear-powered datacenters: What could go wrong?

JamesTQuirk

When was the Last Time a Solar Panel or Wind Turbine Exploded & Wipe out 20 Square Kilometers ?, If your DATA requires that Level of Storage & RISK Management why keep it in a Possible Toxic Bomb ? Why is this being Discussed ? BECAUSE Wind & Solar are getting all the Money, even if Wind could keep Batteries to run the Place charged, for maintenance Costs, as they prefer for People to be relied on their Waste Disposal Contracts as Well, Unless we want to see more of Private Companies Handling of Nuclear Reactors in America ..

Re: Consumer hardware

This is just a theory, but, if as a example, Local Cattle Station wanted to run a ISP on a Remote Homestead to allow all the Workers there to use that as their Satelite/Landline/Cable connection point to Internet, on their own VPN Server, it would appear if that Data was going to 1 user, depending on set-up of Network ?

Super SSD tech: Fancy a bonkers 8TB all-flash PC?

JamesTQuirk

As a Great Grand Dad, with many computer literate "underlings" , I HAVE to agreed, people who "think" there storage is adequate, hasn't used it ...., Know this since beginning of HTML & PDF, & mainly postscript showing how much memory is required (depend on resolution), & in 43 years computers have taught me numbers only go UP, not Down !!!

Re: Compare these to the 20MB MFM drives of not so long ago!

As somebody who has formatted & used MFM 20 meg drives, I payed $1495.00 a pop for 4, back in day of twin floppys & 640K & dip switches ....

But last year I bought a Samsung 512GB 840 pro, great drive, nice and "slippery" cost $550.00 ...

I like Flash drives, I love 8TB SSD's & HDD's, but even if tomorrow I could a 10 PB SSD, I would still have a 500GB as boot, so big drive would be just a storage unit. The 500gb can be partitioned to contain VirtMem, OS & Apps, Backup & OS Recovery, I prefer if only the boot drive gets worked & fragged by OS, and Other BIG Drives by Me, when I want to access files ...

JamesTQuirk

Some use the HDD as backup, I am about to replace 2, 2TB drives in main system, both @ 99% Capacity, with 4TB drive's, the 2, 2TB will go the shelf, as the backup to new drives once backup has been achieved, they will gather dust (in plastic box) with the original backup 1TB's & "those that came before it". So any "retrieval" is plugging a HHD in, this of course, can gather speed over time, & so I have a 80 litre plastic tub full of previous HDD ...

However I think SSD is next cab on rank as far as HDD goes, 8TB? Nova-chips 8TB's sound fine but, cost is always issue. As I know 4TB all flash PCI card based are still around $20000, always things evolve, but a permanent solution is still ahead ...

Re: Keep Making the Same Mistakes

Al Black

you barked at wrong person ...

1 ) Bullshit, Because personal greed is American Mantra, doesn't make it Australian, it is America's corporate greed that we have most of these problems, we have already seen Water & Electricity distribution systems crash from lack of upkeep, here & NZ, I remember when Public Service was a honour, not a Career move, but if they are paid as "executives", except they can't run anything these days, and just sell it off to their friends, who miraculously can make it profit ....

2) Yes we can, all the way to Menzies & "pig iron bob" & their ilk, Tony is a "pommy" because he wants to return us to the "Menzies" era, where the queen is boss, & he gets pretty jewelry to wear, like the pounce he is ...

3) It wasn't hate, it was the truth, glad you idiots can't see it, it may be kinder that way. Governments can't keep hacking @ disabled, pensioners & parents, while taxing the shit out their kids, propping up profits & banks for failing economies, and expect people to be happy, I have heard some nasty crap about government needing to be changed, from Salvation Army Officers, so it is more than just noisy minions ...

Re: Keep Making the Same Mistakes

dshan

? The monopoly, where profits came back into publics coffers, not a private individuals pockets, When the phones(elec/water) where cheaper before they started selling it off to their corporate buddies ? How many have noticed, how infrastructure cost are cheaper when things are "privatised", What a load of crap, everything costs way more, and underlying infrastructure gets NO upkeep till it falls over, & then they call for government to do repairs, & if your a "privatised" bank, all sin's are forgiven from public purse ..

Tony is a pommy, born in London, only interested in getting a gong, (first thing he did as PM, bring back Knighthoods), he & his associates are destroying strip mining Australia, selling it's assets & infrastructure to oversea's "investors" ..

I am old & broken, I cannot do much, but I notice the "younger types" are really not happy either, from some of convo's & "speeches" you hear in Pubs & Clubs & around Western Sydney, I believe they have a chance to be, deservingly so, Australia's first assassinated politicians, ordinary people are getting angry, as politicians look after their & friends business interest's, not the Australian People or it's economy ...

JamesTQuirk

Re: I Use The Cloud - My Cloud

Yeah, i seems that modern routers with a USB port, can add a EXT HDD or 64/128gb flash drive, enough cloudiness for me ...

Things I also consider a issue ..

1) if MS has a update to it's lineup, and you don't, will it still let you access, what happens if your MS "investment" out of service life ?

2) If everybody's DATA is on cloud, who backs it up ?

3) when/If they announce any costs for a year, or "bundle it" with windows, with extra for premium service, it would still be probably cheaper to buy 2 Ext USB drives and use them as mirrored storage ...

4) If Microsoft Clod Drive gets hacked, and ALL your DATA die's or is stolen, are they responsible enough legally to sue ...?

Why go to trouble of securing your system, then live it in a online clod drive, for anyone with a lockpick to play with, whenever they want !!

All true, I am still running Debian on Amiga 2000/060, 128mg ram, it's .iso is about 2.8 meg (OS only), however, I think giving the game anyway is a mistake, I was looking at updating old Concurrent DOS, as a plaything, less than 500kb, install... Tinycore can be nailed down a lot, 8 meg core, 12 meg with apps, is the way it comes from "factory", but it is Linux, cull, install, set it up to do what you want ... The original Amiga OS could run multitasking OS in about 1meg, so it is possible ..

PS : Fairfax Media, I haven't read a newspaper or watched TV in 20 years, the only reason "papers" appear in any search is online comments, like here, if you don't like comments from "the mass's", maybe you can get Abbott to pass a law saying, only people with $1,000,000.00 in Assets can use it, then everybody making comments, would be so far up their own arse, they would all agree with you ...

Re: Yeah... weird

Yes but possible, even just using Internet Connection Sharing in Windows OS, a trick in dial-up days was to combine multiple lines to increase speed, I could ramble on but, here's the pretty version, http://www.wikihow.com/Combine-Two-Internet-Connections

This "should" work with with say a NBN Fibre connection & a ADSL2 line & a mobile phones Hotspot WiFi, as well ...

But I can't see why home users, or SOHO would require it, you would really need to be shifting LOTS of Data Quickly to need more than NBN Fibre can provide or Maybe stuck with low speed ISP with low connection rates, so by combining them get the transfer rate you need ...

It's not just the "Internet" that needs these high connection rates, robotics telemetry data, Visual Data, Audio Data, Sensor Data, all take bandwidth, and communication & data transfer between "system's" that Control Driverless cars, Drones etc, it's about getting things real-time as well ...

Build a scale model, I thought of using a mobile or 2, as communications link to control a craft, mine was gunna have some tye-dyed mice with sunglasses, in cockpit, so I when I buzzed the ISS, I could give them "beware puny humans !!", some led as lasers, maybe cruel for mice, if ISS beliefs it ..

I liked the "craft" in "after earth", it construction was along lines I understand (except I think I have better "caravan" airlocks), knowing weight in largest problem, I think by centralising crew for takeoff in separate life supported area, thru using environmental controls, to change atmosphere the rest of ship, with some lighter than air gas, heating it (to increase lift), using rest of "ships inner hull" space as a "blimp" to achieve a high altitude, before having to give "a push" to orbit it, of course this would temp control of gases, ventilation to storage or to be BURNT as fuel or kept to make water, if you use hydrogen, not helium, & have storage of Air to refill ships inner hull after orbiting ...
