Sept 2024 vs Nov 2025 It is crazy how much AI data centers have effected the price of certain components over the last 12-18 months! A little bit of this price increase is due to tariffs, but it is mostly due to supply/demand.

My 10 y.o. laptop finally broke down, and it's not fixable. What I realised is that I don't really care about the new laptop (will probably just get something lightweight for under $1k), but I care a lot about properly storing my files (mainly photos). I'm paranoid about hard drives breaking down (happened to me multiple times), and I'm also not very disciplined with back up. ChatGPT told me about NAS and RAID stuff and seems like that is a perfect solution, although not quite affordable - cheapest Synology setup is ~$600. But maybe there's some other option I'm missing?

Pretty cool talk from Bunnie om hardware trojans The first 20 mins gives the most useful taxonomy I’ve come across with concrete examples E.g. this very stealthy example he gives at min 14 https://media.ccc.de/v/38c3-iris-non-destructive-inspection-of-silicon
