Lots of new sites starting up. Most don't last a year.

It looks to me like they were counting some windows variant as 'Other' for a time.

Holy shit.. 1Tb drives too..

If only I had a use for them :/

Raid 0 on 3x500GB triples your failure rate (especially important on older drives, as I presume these are), and still won't get anywhere near an SSD in speed.

You could just mount the 3 drives separately and have storage that way, which means if one fails you've still got the data on the other two.. it'd still suck but not as bad as losing everything.

If it was me I'd wait until I could afford the SSD.. it'll be many times faster and newer.

The daily express isn't exactly known for it's accurate insightful reporting. The headline is mostly about scaring people, mostly elderly (their main readership) that their computer is about to stop working.

There are some well known ones, like L4sbot, that copy everything but they're upfront about it with bot in their name.

There are a few others more sneaky.

That's literally what they teach you about basic economics at school..

The standard graph of price increasing on one side and customer demand decreasing on the other, and how companies try to find the crossover point.

I've successfully used autopark twice since 2019.

All the other times, if it sees a parking space at all (which is very rare) it has either aborted immediately or tried to reverse into an obstacle.
