They haven’t updated their wikis for Operating Costs or Hosting since late 2022, somewhat aligned with their blog post on handling the mass influx of users from “E-day”.

Back then this was 6 AMD 5950 16/32 with 128GB of RAM and 2x3.84TB SSDs, with one “storage provider” with an AMD epyc 32/64 with 400GB of RAM and 10TB of storage.

Their hosting provider doesn’t offer these same SKUs, but roughly equivalent could be about €200/mo for each of the former, and the beefiest high RAM option is like €800/mo, totalling €2K/mo?

Curious how much the infrastructure has grown, but I haven’t seen anything else. Even so, these costs are extremely high.

Curious question, why would IPv6 introduce additional latency?

If anyone is looking, sounds like new launch window will open about 530 PM CST.

It’s not exactly hidden.

In short, since this is somewhat near term, you probably want as little risk as possible, so stocks are not recommended.

Said longer, a high interest savings account or bond fund at 2-3% is probably your safest bet, but you also need to consider the opportunity cost— tariffs WILL increase the price of a new vehicle this time next year, so are you planning to buy new? Does it make any sense to buy now and refinance later? Tariffs could be as high as 25%, depending on which way the wind blows (country of origin, assuming new, etc).

Opportunity cost aside, what’s your spending target, how much do you have saved already, and how much does optimizing on interest rate actually help?

From $0, saving $300/mo for 3 years at 0% interest is $10,800.

At 3% interest, the same total after 3 years is $11,127, which nets you $327. That’s not nothing, but even an insanely optimistic 10% is ~$1100, but you would be just as likely to lose money.

Your needs and risk profile are yours alone, we’d need a lot more information to say more than “low risk and buy used”.

It’s excellent. I only wish there were more full length novels, but the novellas are great.

Wake me up when they have enough senators voting to convict.

They have $3.6B in free cash flow. This is just a decrease from last year, which was a record, to this year, a year in which new car sales outside of China are massively down everywhere.

No, bonds are a distinctly different asset class, specifically, with a fixed rate of return and maturity period.

Except the US government doesn’t have stock options to offer in lieu of salary.

Users annoyed; do nothing.

The largest brand for commercial drones.

Because they make more profit from that 30% than they make from hardware sales. That’s all there is to it.

Because their constitution literally prevents it.

The FBI and prosecution should do their fucking job and build a case, instead of relying on illegal search and seizure.

Thats the trick… They don’t intend to replace them. This is a thinly disguised austerity measure, intended to cripple agencies to later “show” their ineffectiveness.
