angeal1131··on Swedish hospitals in “readiness state” after HDD outages
That computer model is from Q42015. Warranty 3 years. It's about 4 years old.

And also, why do they don't have proper data backup solution to prevent of this?

Haven't they heard of Backups? Centrialized data storage server that doesn't harm the data because it's in a RAID so you just replace the drive and it will restore it self? Because if you're a SysOps/SysAdmin etc. you know once one drive start to fail, more will fail very soon... Which is also for security sake, the sensitive data shouldn't be placed on the client computers they use.

This is when programmer start to call them self Engineers, tho Torvalds is way more qualified for such a title than all those mobile web devs out there doing dog work.
angeal1131··on EU says new cars must include built-in speed limiters
Issue in europe is that most roads isn't super wide. Only two-lane; at times only one.. So to overtake, you have to drive into the other lane that's driving against you... so that's when you are forced to speed up.... On highways, then yeah not a issue, but most roads isn't highways.
angeal1131··on EU says new cars must include built-in speed limiters
I think a speed limit is good. EU's implementation? not sure about that. What about driving by a slow driveR? you have to speed up above the limit to do that.

It's about safety, and no street legal car should be driven above 140-160km/h (87-100mph) on the highway; most people do not know how to handle a car above 80mph. It's really dangerous for both that car as well everybody around. IF you drive on your own land, race track etc. then yeah, that's where it should be allowed.
