i suspect there is some sort of survival bias at play in that only the good-quality and sturdy stuff from past times survived to date and is remembered in high regard

no

kind of worked with flip-phone resolutions, but tiresome with multi-megabyte pictures of today

sounds like an issue with bluetooth audio profiles having a hard time with bidirectional usage

absurdities not withstanding, this might actually be a good idea.

> Most laptops cannot do parity of any sort because of a lack of SATA/M.2 ports

raid is NOT media or connection dependent and will happily do parity over mixed media and even remote blockdevs

it does not do the e2e hat-trick thou

Encryption without E2EE is completely worthless for the threat model discussed here.

That’s right. It’s either E2EE, or it’s not encrypted IMHO.

unformatted html with sugar is not really helpful to humans, is it?

If the response is JSON where the JSON values contain HTML, then is the response "JSON" or "HTML".

I would call this response "JSON" not "HTML".

The JSON is unformatted, i.e., no "prettyPrint".

The text-only browser I use to read HTML works with this JSON, it is easy to read, because the JSON values contain HTML tags.

not to dispute, but the fact that most of our stuff is 'made in china' might play into the public perception of this dynamic more than the political labels attached.
