according to that page the issue stemmed from an underlying system responsible for health checks in load balancing servers.

how the hell do you fuck up a health check config that bad? that’s like messing up smartd.conf and taking your system offline somehow

almost done re setting everything up after a catastrophic failure (ended up replacing multiple drives, the CPU, the motherboard, the psu, and the ram).

now I’m just running long command after long command, waiting for drives to zero, ensuring extended smart checks pass on new drives, cloning to my backup drives…

this things been down for a few weeks and I’m so excited to have it back up soon!

anyways, moral of the story is, the 3-2-1 strategy is a good strategy for a lot of reasons. just do it, it may save your ass down the line.

coffee and weed

depends on the job. shitty jobs I won’t give two weeks especially if there’s already animosity from management (which has lead to some pretty entertaining quitting stories). most I’ll do for something like that is ask my coworkers if they think they can get by without me (assuming I also liked the coworkers).

if it’s a job I liked, I typically give notice via email and then go and bring it up in person to the recipient as well.

yes. I think a lot of people can. the thing is, the people who can won’t be the runs running for office

Mexican and middle eastern and I’d die happy

we’re in a thread about a script that can download and activate windows editions in place for free…

it shouldn’t, but years of lobbying and demonization online certainly have made it so

silence of the lambs at like 8. still one if my all time faves but I definitely could’ve waited a few more years to get into it lol

I find it’s super rare any form of recovery actually works. best thing to do is pull the files you need off with a nvme/sata adapter then reinstall and replace those files. 90% when windows actually breaks there’s not much to be done (I try all forms of recovery every time though).

plus, 9/10 times the reinstall process is actually way faster than fighting with windows or searching for the problem online and getting hundreds of people asking you to run sfc \scannow.

very similar to rule 34 in terms of content. I haven’t been on it in ages tho so I can’t speak for it as of late. if I had to guess it’s probably had an influx of AI slop that’s causing issues, other online image boards have been suffering from that as well.

nice project! I’ll check it out! I’ve also really enjoyed your replies here. it’s obvious you really know your stuff. thanks!

ACPI is weird and sometimes hardware dependent, so it’s really hard to support it on every device. that’s my current understanding at least.

I had an air bubble in my brain and an orbital floor fracture (and I shattered my sphenoid) after a bike accident. when I moved, I could both hear and feel the trickle of air moving around in my own brain. it didn’t really hurt (or if it did I was in enough other pain not to notice) but it was one of the oddest sensations ever.

wear helmets y’all.

a proper hobbyist setup, well done!

or just change the folder ownership to whatever user you use in the container, but don’t give them write access. that’s how I do it so I can still edit my media as root.

you cannot recycle li ion batteries “normally”. you should remove the battery from the phone and dispose of it as soon as possible. best buy, target, and some other techy stores take them, so call around. phone repair shops should also be able to help. a conductive container is also a bad idea. airtight plastic is the way to go if you’re that concerned about it, however once it’s removed from the device you can realistically keep it in any nonconductive container and you’ll be fine.

Futurama and avatar are endlessly rewatchable imo

labels are useless last a certain point. you’re you and that’s all that matters.

if you absolutely need to pick a label (for a doctor’s form or whatever) bi would be what I would choose since what they’re really asking there is what genders do you sleep with.

my profile very clearly said “trans woman” as my gender.

and yes, trans people have to be very careful with dating apps. so do all woman for that matter. but that shouldn’t mean we aren’t allowed to use them.
