Fwd: [talk] Climate Mirror
FYI Some of these datasets are humongous. Many TB. I wonder about alternatives to straight-up mirrors. I mean, a 100TB server is a nontrivial investment. Maybe torrents, IPFS, ...? -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [talk] Climate Mirror Date: Tue, 13 Dec 2016 16:07:09 -0800 From: Pete Wright <pete@nomadlogic.org> To: NYCBUG <talk@lists.nycbug.org> Not to go super political on this list - but I'm personally pretty keen to preserve climate science related data-sets for future generations (as well as our own). So in that light - wondering if anyone has taken a look at this: http://climatemirror.org/ I'm investigating now to see if there are any datasets I can help mirror - if anyone else on this list is interested let me know, maybe we can make a large scale effort? -pete -- Pete Wright pete@nomadlogic.org nomadlogicLA _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@lists.nycbug.org http://lists.nycbug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk

There will be darknet storage nodes funded by coins. Unfortunately onions suck for that because their real IP's are too easily found if the data is sensitive enough to attract heat. Would be nice to also see a darknet app that users can just run that will use free space on their existing volumes (or dedicated drives) as backing bits to create massive distributed darknet storage nodes.
