add section on how difficult it is to delete vaults from glacier

			==Delete from Glacier==

			It is unbelievably, jaw-dropping difficult to delete files from Amazon Glacier.

			It is not possible to delete a bucket from Amazon Glacier using the AWS Console WUI. To delete something from Amazon Glacier, you must:

			# Create API keys
			# Install the AWS CLI tool
			# Initiate an "inventory job" for the bucket you'd like to delete using the AWS API
			# Wait several days for the "inventory job" to complete
			# Download the inventory job's output using the AWS API
			# ??

			===deleteMeIn2020===

			In 2024, Marcin noticed that OSE had been charged $1.03 per month from Amazon glacier. It took a long time digging through the AWS Console just to figure out that there was an old bucket (named 'deleteMeIn2020'). The 'deleteMeIn2020' bucket contained a backup of hetzner1 files. It was created just before we terminated the hetzner1 server's contact in 2018. The intention was for us to delete the 'deleteMeIn2020' bucket in 2020 (2 years after it was created) if we hadn't needed to recover files from it over the past 2 years since it was created. The bucket was had 285.3 GB (as of last inventory).

			For more logs documenting the herculean effort to delete this vault, see the following articles:
