Ark Survival Evolved.

Peak Ark is when you have no idea what you are doing and keep being shitmixed by velocipators. Huddled in a darkened shack with the outside chewing it’s way inside while you scream in terror.

Then you finally get a bit of a handle on what is going on, tame your own raptor and BAM giant snake knocks you out and as you swim back to consciousness a giant croc grabs you in its mouth and launches into the stratosphere.

Later on it’s all iron man suits and minmaxing every fucking thing.

I’ve still got a 2 disk mirror that has been running for well over a decade. Started as 240gb I think and got upgraded in place to 4tb after a drive failure 5 or 6 years ago.

The server it’s on has been completely replaced multiple times and now mostly has zfs arrays but there has never been a justification to retire it.

If time is not a consideration just batch up transcodes with your shitty hardware and nice/renice the process out of the way.
