In my country for administrative cases with short deadlines courts have fast tracks. So in such a case the court probably wouldn't issue any final judgement but could order everyone involved to stop further committing potentially illegal actions.

How dare people use games for recreation! Why would they not think about the shareholders!

About the composting - if you live in a region which has a professional compositing facility, properly sort your rubbish and don't compost on your own.

Composting emits a lot of greenhouse gases and professional facilities capture them and use them in less harmful ways. So if we were all in-house composting our bio-garbage it would be more harmful for the environment than using communal services.

It's a little bit different for gardening products - those first capture greenhouse gases and would rot on ground anyway so composting kinda balances out. But still, for example if you're cutting your grass just leave it on the ground and rake it. This way it's not gonna rot and will fertilize your lawn.

PSA: if you're on a remote island or dysfunctional yet floating ship do not abandon it unless truly necessary - raft will be always more dangerous

Sooo actually why land mammals can't filter out salt from seawater?

Wait, do you have a source for the 50% number?

365.25 days I believe is the better approximation because it's the rough time it takes Earth to be in the same spot - hence the leap years

Gas valves famously use the opposite direction

This is, reportedly, a comment under, reportedly, a post

Yeah... I can't think of more even including regionalisms

Yep, the step forward would be to regulate licensing in a consumer-friendly way. Not going back to buying every song or album separately.

Wireless communications radiation physically cannot cause increased mutation rates and this is quite well studied. Wireless communication operates on frequencies (for the most part) below 10GHz, which has wavelengths measured in centimeters and meters. The biggest wave that can impact human DNA is UV which has wavelengths measured in nanometers - orders of magnitude of difference. So no, wireless communications are super unlikely to impact cancer rates.

 

I have ZBOX MI571 with an i7-6700T and 16GB (SODIMM) RAM laying unused. And I want to make a personal backup/archive server, for which I think TrueNas will work best.

The box has more than enough computational power for running TrueNas. But as far as I could find it has only one SATA and one M.2 SATA port, so not enough to have a boot-pool and a redundant storage-pool. And it doesn't have any spare PCIe ports.

So I'm wondering what's my best option here? Can the drives be somehow reliability attached through USB for example? Or will it be best to buy a used mobo and ram and replant the CPU? Or should I just sell the whole thing and build a server from scratch?
