Don't disagree, just looking at it from the Lord Farquaad point of view, "Some of you may die, but it's a sacrifice I am willing to make". I think space exploration is good and if we have to burn a few billionaires to get there, I am sanguine.

Ah, another well-thought-out tech law from OzGov in the vein of such hits as 'The laws of mathematics are very commendable, but the only law that applies in Australia is the law of Australia' and the AssAct. I swear we're the designated test ground for dodgy laws for the five (7,13,etc) eyes...

A 16Tb manufacturer recertified drive is USD160 which should sort storage (and later get a second for offline backup). I'm actually holding out until I get GPU encode (apparently CPU is somewhat better, but power considerations, maybe next gen). Do wish the scene would get on with switching, though, are we dinosaurs?
OK...? (I'm all for that)
