Hetzner's super cheap "cloud" machines allow you to attach "block storage" volumes of whatever size you like. It's not particularly well advertised (searching for this sort of thing takes you to their dedicated storage offerings) but it's there and it's great.
That's "Amazon's Choice", which is a label you pay for that gets plopped on random bullshit. Amazon Basics is a brand that Amazon itself has had people design and manufacture for them. Not the same thing at all.
SEEKING WORK - Based in Cologne, Germany, remote or Europe preferred
I do custom electronics, robotics, and embedded software development - I specialize in quickly turning ideas into prototypes. I've built custom automation equipment for chemistry labs, sensors that are in use in household/utility applications, control circuitry for construction equipment, 3d printing electronics, data acquisition equipment. No project too small. Few projects too large. Deep discounts for open source hardware work.
I would also be happy to come over (anywhere in Europe) and teach any of the above skills to a small group of interested people. I've taught courses in electronic assembly (SMD), 3d printing (building/using printers, iterative 3d model design using programming) and robot design and construction. I've taught courses at several universities, hackspaces, and conferences.

A major difference is that while original Bluetooth used time-based channel hopping BLE uses sequence-based channel hopping. This means you don't have to keep your local clock or receiver running to know what channel to listen to, rather you listen on a given channel just before you want to speak/receive something and once something shows up there you know where you are in the sequence. BLE-only chips can basically be entirely powered off most of the time without losing connection, whereas bluetooth needs a running clock or a large receive window to stay connected.
With zero crossing detection, it would need to know the buffer is running out before the next zero crossing occurs. So if the shutdown signal is given within the last millisecond before the zero crossing, it would ignore all data that comes after the zero, and output zero for the remaining partial wave. On starting up again, it would wait until the signal is at zero before beginning to output. At least that's how the common audio codecs I've seen that implement that feature work. The most common application is volume control, where you don't want a sudden change in the amplitude of the wave to result in a glitch, so you adjust amplitude at zero crossings.
A lot of audio hardware does this - it switches the audio off only when the signal is at a zero crossing. So it can be implemented by the OS by telling the codec that the zero value is an underrun rather than a desired signal.
1. Really annoying to do any kind of i/o
2. Extremely poor interoperability with non-Haskell code
3. (opinion) Unpleasant, inconsistent, hairy syntax
