  • Look at your school’s policy manual. There’s likely a policy regarding what they can and cannot do with images of students. Every school I’ve worked for has some kind of policy around this. In all of them I’ve read you can opt out of photos being published, but there’s usually a caveat that by participating in any school sanctioned event, participation is considered consent to be shown in photos and video of the event.




  • Idle computing capacity that installed, online, but is not being used all the time is exactly what I thought the OP was talking about and calling spare. They said computing power to spare, not space or equipment. I don’t understand your argument about installing equipment, that to me isn’t what OP was talking about. 🤷‍♀️ Kinda like the spare capacity that CompuServe had from their time sharing service that they used to bring their online service to the masses at night.

    Sorry you didn’t appreciate my reply. I was trying to explain my point with real examples from my experience. I don’t need your validation. I kinda regret trying to make you see both sides now. But whatever, you do you.



  • Nice writeup. As long as you can throw fast drives, fast networking and plenty of RAM at it Ceph is happy.

    Ceph seems to work fine on my cluster at work. For less than $40k I replaced my whole VMware vSAN cluster and we’re saving as much again in software licensing over the next 5 years with buying support from Proxmox. Also much lighter as far as administrative tasks to keep it up to date and running well.
