  • I did not meant to come across as saying that HDDs don’t suffer bit rot. However, there are specific long term storage HDDs that are built specifically to be powered up sporadically and resist external magnetic influences on the track. In a proper storage environment they will last over 5 years without being powered up and still retain all information. I know it because i use them in this exact scenario for over 2 decades. Conversely there are no such long term storage SSDs.

    SSDs store information through trapped charges which most certainly lose charge through quantuum tunneling as well as generalized charge leakage. As insulation loses effectiveness, the potential barrier for the charge allows for what is normally a manageable effect, much like in the CPU like you said, to become out of the scope of error correction techniques. This is a physical limitation that cannot be overcome.



  • Only with guerrilla tactics against the US army, like Vietnam or the Taliban. They would still be occupied. No army in the world can stop a US offensive. They invested a lot in order to make it so. Fighting the US on a conventional war style is suicide.

    The real pain to the US would come in the form of trade sanctions and loss of military allies in the EU and elsewhere in the democratic world. It would take a few years, because the EU and the US are pretty interconnected. Nato would probably be dead in the water.

    After that it’s speculation that US enemies would seize the opportunity of their isolation. The lack of trade would severely impact revenues and Americans would be in for the wildest depression of US history, with a likely forecast of IRA style civil war between Democrats and Republicans. If Greenlanders kept at it, they would eventually take the region back.

    The US isn’t a dictatorship, it’s a democracy. Democracies don’t usually fare well on offensive land grab wars for very long. So the US would either let go of Greenland with a new, sane president or become a dictatorship eventually. Lots of ifs in this scenario but taking Greenland would cause a lot of hurt for the US undoubtedly.


  • Zionism doesn’t mean that. What kind of twilight zone is he living in ?

    Jewish people are perfectly able to determine their own future without Zionism. Zionism is the repossession of inhabited land from people who are currently living on it and create an ethno state where the Jewish religion is in control of it to the detriment of everyone else, through the use of force and murder if need be.

    I’m sick and tired of this whitewashing of Zionism. It’s like when in 2015 some US groups were trying to redefine jihad as a personal struggle in life. No, it doesn’t mean that, it means death and murder through holy war.

    If you call yourself a Zionist, if you are a Zionist, you agree with the murder and mistreatment of people who are guilty of existing in a land that you decided to take for yourself in the name of your god Yahweh. I know you don’t like to say his name in vain, but I think it’s important to make the name very clear here, we wouldn’t want to be unclear about whom are you killing all these children for and to whom you will answer to if it turns out you are right about his existence. The worst of humanity is being committed by Zionists for Yahweh, specifically in his name, for Zionism.
