I'm thinking about switching from google drive to dropbox, due to safety reasons (I don't want any suspicious AI spy on my files). Today I noticed the Hetzner Storage box and mountain duck.
Hetzner storage box offers 1TB network drive for 3.2 EUR per month, and mountain duck offers a way to mount that network drive on Windows, with a 39 USD one-time fee. The software is made in swiss.
Due to the god damn GFW in China, the speed can't go over 100KB/s without proxy. Thankfully, with my proxy server set up on the Hetzner FSN datacenter, the upload speed is faster than 4MB/s, which I think is the limit of my network. The download speed is also not bad: 8MB/s at the beginning, drop to 2MB/s, sometimes stuck at 2Mbps. Not sure who should be blamed for this, since there are too many participants involved: mountain duck, my transparent proxy, my network ISP, the proxy server on Hetzner, Hetzner storage box, I don't know. But with WebDAV, it supports random access, which means I can stream a video and scroll back and forth without waiting for the stupid client software to download the entire file (It's you, Google Drive Client).
The price is also the cheapest. Hetzner's price is equivalent to 38.16 USD per TB per year (BX11, with BX41, you get 24.246 USD per TB per year), while Google Drive (2TB annually) is 49.995 USD per TB per year, and dropbox (2TB annually) is 59.94 USD per TB per year. The proxy server is kind of required no matter which service I use, so that's not a big game changer.
I will try this configuration for a while. If I think it's good enough, that would be a great deal.
@skyblond We also have cloud.qoto.org which is free.
I have known Ian on this instance for a while now. I can assure you he is a live person who monitors the account.
For whatever reason he doesnt feel like responding to you, he doesnt have to. Please give him some space.
@icedquinn
Thata like claiming starting a construction business is the same as going to the casino since you could loose money.
The truth is there is risknin everything, and crypto like any other venture is only as risky as your skills dictate.
@saxnot
Ive been imvesting in crypto successfully for a very long time now. The truth is while volatile ive found it rediculously easy to predict. Ive had great success consistently predixting the up trends, as well as seeing the down trends coming. Ive seen consistent success, extremely high gains and very little losses. This is over a 10 hear period.
Long story short, call it whst you want, but ive consistently made money off it for 9 years now and have never failed to avpid the dips.

@freeschool
I am familiar with those tools and have run ky own email servers before. Sadly even then i havent come close to approaching google on my ability to reduce spam
@saxnot
Thats a ka8ve perspect8ve. High volatility/risk just means if you play the market well you make money fast, if you screw up its slow. The only difference with low risk stock is that you wont know you suck at it, and loose just as much, for several years.
What seperates crypto and lower risk stock from gambling is simply that gambling is chance stocl/crypto is skill.

@mkl I get that way when im highly stressed over long periods. But as long as I am doing ok it acts more as a strength than a hindrance. Luckily I am not easily stressed to begin with.
@mkl As a person who has ADHD I can say I understand why that is fitting but im not sure it is as fitting for some subtypes of ADHD, or even within the same subtype. Like I dont manifest with much trouble with executive function overall, in fact my adhd is mostly positive in the sense that I am an effective multitasker
Nah, I'm the guy who invested when market and conditions were favorable for the short term future of crypto and pulled out my investments when it wasnt favorable.
Crypto is a great investment vehicle if you are a smart investor. If you arent going to read the market go with a lower risk investment.
I can add these!
@saxnot No, I've made an absolute fortune off of crypto over the years.
It's funny. If someone had asked me, seven years ago, "what is the key principle of teaching Physics," I would never have said "mystery." Now it would be at least a top-3 idea.
The only way I know how to teach is this:
1) Students summarize their understanding.
2) We poke the universe with some experiment or activity.
3) Students admit that this makes no sense.
4) We name the mystery.
5) We use logic, more experiments, graphs, etc. to solve the mystery.
6) Students summarize their (new) understanding four ways, naming this their "current model."
7) We poke the universe again, and the cycle of confusion-->named mystery-->model begins again.
@mkl Its wonderful to have you aboard. I have no doubt you will be a wonderful asset to the community given our talks.
