They are way better. You can print thousands of pages on a single toner cartridge and the toner basically last forever. Unlike ink printers that dry out and clog if you don't use it within a week.
I love video as much as the next person, but hosting a video platform is incredible expensive and potential difficult especially for a global audience.
I think that might put a large burden on people hosting it.
That isn't even talking about people abusing it for like copyrighted content.
Yes but it has limitations/risks that could be a deal killer depending on your use case.
When a file changes externally, Nextcloud doesn't know about the the changes until it looks at the file. It only looks when a user access that location within Nextcloud or during a automatic file scan.
The only time I have had issues with it is using a Nextcloud desktop client, as files are cached locally on the desktop and the client doesn't live query the server when you view the files locally.
Changes made externally of Nextcloud won't get updated on desktop clients until Nextcloud looks at the file an realizes a change happened.
This can be very annoying but also dangerous as you are at risk of editing an outdated file.
For example if you edit a file via SMB and then edit the same file again on a desktop clients. The desktop clients won't have the new file with the B changes. So you risk overwriteing the files with an old version.
I disagree, digitizing is what is saving a lot of the media.
You can save hundreds of thousands of hours of videos and many games in a single 20TB drive today. You couldn't do that without digital technology.
Never heard of someone using a UPS on a Fridge/Freezer.
Does it make a difference? Seems like the UPS would just died after 10-20 minutes and not really make much difference to your freezer.
My question is how did that little kid become an EMT in 7 years?
