I've been using it for a few years, and it's an awesome solution if you have slow or flaky network connections. The project is great, however, it takes some time to find the best configuration. I'm not sure about the latest version, but I didn’t have a great experience with versions above 0.60 and still stick to 0.59. I also recommend saving your working configuration once you have it, as a few changes can mess up the system—probably due to a bug.

this is the the result of a nonexistent European energy policy, let's switch of coal and nuclear and not work on accelerating the approving process of renewable power plants what should go wrong right? the entire EU is completely dependent on gas which we import from countries like Russia, Algeria. Currently due to the skyrocketing gas prices, production from coal is at a all time high, but hey the green transition is working right??! companies are closing because they can't handle the energy costs, but Germany says everything is fine...

TWRP and TitaniumBackup (phone needs to be rooted). SMBSync2 (open-source android app, one of the few/only(?) that supports samba 2/3) to samba share (TrueNAS).

jails are great, coincidentally I started using them too with Freenas (now Truenas). The only big disadvantage is that the FreeBSD ports are less uptodate than docker (Linux).

How was 2FA bypassed here?

very likely a sim swap attack:

"A SIM swap scam is a type of account takeover fraud that generally targets a weakness in two-factor authentication and two-step verification in which the second factor or step is a text message or call placed to a mobile telephone." [1]

happy customer of backblaze. Love how transparent they are with everything (especially the Harddisk statistics) and how the CEO takes time to respond to a lot questions only confirms how down to earth they are.

is this similar to DBeaver?

For sure it is/should not be high priority, but releasing such an app in 2020 for sure does not reflect the great skills of the backblaze team. At least show me some basic stats, account settings and invoices. You can only download files from your buckets and that's it.. really?

I'm a very happy customer, but please do something about your mobile app (android) it's really horrible.

I sync all my device files to a local Freenas server which runs duplicacy in a jail and sync's it every night to backblaze B2. I looked at duplicity, restic, attic, borg and in the end settled for duplicacy. Pay attention to the duplicacy license, for somebody it could be a problem.

Great story, I don't want to know the number of companies that run business critical stuff on excel vba macros + access DB some guy wrote 15 years ago.

That's so true. We are running SAP, which is so heavenly customized (someone 10 years ago thought it was a great idea, thanks!) that applying patches is nearly impossible and requires months of pain and expensive contractors.

I can recommend a in my opinion very interesting book about "abusing stastics" it's called "Standard Deviations: Flawed Assumptions, Tortured Data and Other Ways to Lie with Statistics". (I don't know the author or have any affiliation with it).

I still remember running the r5 release on my Pentium III 450Mhz..never had such a lagfree and fast multimedia experience on any OS.. ZERO lag.. it's performance was amazing.. unfortunately it's lack of hardware support and multiuser made it problematic to use it as a daily driver. Even Beos Zeta (commercial version based on r5) did not really improve the situation.

Is it only me or does it seem if you are not a "famous" person that has a lot of public visibility and is able to create pressure through a tweet or blog post you are lost, no number to call, no mail to write. Over the years I saw a lot of similar stories, youtube or in general "google accounts" blocked for no clear reason and no way to contact somebody to solve the issue... kinda scary...

confirm, works fine on latest Firefox stable Android

in general commodity traders (power, gas, oil...)

so true, I would instantly pay if they would offer some 2-5$ plan.

really love reading bug hunting stories

and they improve liquidity (reduce bid/ask spread)

the problem with cryptocurrency arbitrage is that the profit depends on how fast/reliable the various exchanges process your transactions and how much the transaction fees are and not how sophisticated your algorithm is.

nice read: https://steemit.com/arbitrage/@kesor/the-math-behind-cross-e...
