For posting all the anonymous reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: Do not post public figures, these should be posted to c/gossip

hold on i thought old fashion tape drives were in fact still very reliable and have insanely high capacity for data you don't need to access much or quickly?
Magnetic tape drives have the lowest per-terabyte cost of any digital storage medium and will typically function for 15-30 years
Well yeah but why would you store something in a facility you control on hardware you own when you could host it in the cloud?
Absolutely, they have proven long-term reliability, and great data density.
You would be correct
