  • I’m sorry, my goal wasn’t to be a bother. My initial comment was intended to be friendly and funny - I’m not trying to patronize or be antagonistic. I learned a couple of years ago that I have autism, so I should have learned my lesson by now and stopped trying to be funny; It never pans out the way I mean for it to.

    Hope I wasn’t too much of a drag on your day, and I hope it gets better for you.

    With that said, a genuine question with no jokes: Can you help me understand how 2016 counts as recent, given the context? It was almost a decade ago, and I’m having trouble comprehending how it counts at all as recent since in tech “recent” usually means “in the last 2-3 years” unless you’re comparing to something from a much longer time ago like the 90s.


  • It was a lighthearted jab at calling 8 years ago recent; Not a political statement about Apple or operating systems.

    8 years is a ton of time in tech, CPUs from 2016 are ancient. Single-core CPU performance has doubled in Intel’s laptop chips since then, and modern laptop CPUs from Intel are often 12-core, versus the top end 2016 MacBook Pro having 4 cores.

    Not trying to start any fights, was just poking fun at the choice to call 2016 recent










  • Yep, as someone who just recently setup a hyperconverged mini proxmox cluster running ceph for a kubernetes cluster atop it, storage is hard to do right. Wasn’t until after I migrated my minor services to the new cluster that I realized that ceph’s rbd csi can’t be used by multiple pods at once, so having replicas of something like Nextcloud means I’ll have to use object storage instead of block storage. I mean. I can do that, I just don’t want to lol. It also heavily complicates installing apps into Nextcloud.
