Thanks, Kevin W! I was wondering if you ever want to talk about CEPH in a video. Playing around with the erasure coding and self-healing abilities, unplugging nodes, losing an OSD, I bet this can be entertaining, especially

Thanks, Andrew G! Looking forward to seeing how the new Intel GPUs stack up on the low end. Are there any plans to test it both with and without an Intel CPU to see what the differences would be either now or once 13th gen is

  Robert S
Thanks, Robert S! Do you think Google cancelling Stadia is simply evidence of their misunderstanding of the gaming market or is it further evidence that when Google isn't dominating a specific market with a near monopoly,
  Ryland N
Thanks, Ryland N! Are you interested at all in branching into tech adjacent topics like wildlife photography, ebikes, or fitness devices?
 
Reply to Ryland N
Reply @Ryland N! Certainly always good to diversify, but we'll basically cross those bridges when we get there. Right now the focus is Labs.

Reply to Ella W
Reply @Ella W! All of our writers are moving over there, but the Labs are kind of a both their own thing and assistance to the writers. Think of them as a new skill that writers can pull from.
