And I’m sure most of those people were comparing VHS tapes or regular analog cable TV, or hooking up their DVD player with composite.

What is the soup du jour?

“It’s the soup of the day.”

Mmm, that sounds good. I’ll have that.

Yeah it’s been a long road for me to be fully Linux on my personal systems. I think I started messing with Linux circa 1997 and didn’t switch over fully until I think Windows 7 went EoL.

desperately need another to denigrate

Whoa whoa whoa we can’t use that word man. Say “white wash” or “Jim Crow” or something.

Who the fuck ever wanted to work on the first place. Bitch, we have to work.

If you’re >22 and you’re wasting brain-cycles on what age people are losing their virginity at, perhaps you need a bit of introspection.

Thank you for such an informational comment. My comment was wildly tongue-in-cheek but apparently it didn’t come across that way.

I didn’t know evaporative cooling was in use or even particularly effective for data centers. They generate a lot of heat that needs to be dealt with. I would think that modern HVAC systems would be so much more effective at that scale. Essentially since most colo facilities I’ve been to have cool air pumped in under the raised floor and return goes up.

Also every colo I’ve been in has been pretty strict about hot aisle/cold management and keeping unused rack units blocked off.

Yeah. That’s recycled.

Water cycle counts.

Shhh people have to earn their ROI on their taxes. Can’t just be spending tax dollars to promote the general welfare all willy-nilly.

You’re not really Canada! You’re just ten provinces and three territories that are sub-national administrative divisions under the jurisdiction of the Canadian Constitution!

You can’t hear the ding if you grabbed your snack and ran to your room with noise cancelling headphones on. As kids like to do.

And then you can’t close it while you’re at work. As usually happens.

They don’t do that, but they do send you a push when the fridge door is left open. Which has literally saved my bacon many times.

But that doesn’t need a screen. Why you’d want a screen on your fridge, I don’t understand. It’ll clearly be slow and obsolete long before the rest of the fridge is.

It’s the same thing in car infotainment systems. They’re the first thing to feel dated, and they are increasingly difficult to replace. But at least they give a ton of value from the screen.

You want a tip, here’s your tip: seize the means of production.

• admitted the issue immediately

• reassured users as to actual scope of breach, probable risk

• provided recommended actions for users who think they may be impacted.

• explained best-practices (enough for a laymen’s audience) and how they limited scope and impact.

• did not deflect blame

My god…I’ve got to hand it to plex. This is the perfect incident response letter. Love 'em or hate 'em, this is a good example for other CISOs.

Even thicker laptops…I have an HP Envy (that I hate and I want another Lenovo 14")…wifi card is bios locked. I can only replace with another Intel AC card.

Do you have the “I only know I’m hungry when I start shaking” kind of neurodivergence or the “I just eat instinctively and compulsively” kind of neurodivergence? Why? ADHD? Anhedonia? Autism? Anxiety? Depression?

Funny you should mention this. I know Binge Eating Disorder is closely related to ADHD (and is also often treated with Vyvanse/Lisdexamfetamine). Im certain depression plays a part in all eating disorders/weight-related body dysmorphia.

Nah if that were true, Republican voters wouldn’t hate Bill Gates.

Back up! Back up!

Mind ya business y’all. Just mind ya business.

Kinoite is an immutable Linux distro from fedora.

Tho I think, in retrospect, his laptop is still on tumbleweed. Id been meaning to switch.

My kids got into Minecraft.

I gave my oldest an old laptop. Put Kinoite on it. Now he prefers java edition.

Minecraft doesn’t need much. It plays acceptably (for him) on a T460p…I think that’s like a 6th Gen i7…as long as he doesn’t go too crazy with mods.
