Nice try, ChatGPT. No more training data and PII from me, thank you very much.

Today’s supercomputers are so boring. A room full of rectangular cabinets has nothing on a Cray that doubles as 70s lounge furniture.

Ah the old “owe $100 and the bank owns you; owe $100,000,000 and you own the bank” defense.

Any hallmark channel original content is like white noise for your brain. If you like to have something on in the background but want to have absolutely no stake in the content it’s a good choice.

Even the richest in the US fare worse than the middle class in other industrialized countries, and at much higher cost.

Never get involved in a land war in Asia.

FYI many credit cards will allow you to make virtual numbers which you can then use for individual purchases or groups of purchases. They were originally meant to help combat fraud but I use them for subscription services so that if they give me a hard time about quitting I can simply cancel the card number and file a dispute (which in my few experiences has always gotten me my “overage” fees back)

Yes, but you can medicate ADHD. There’s no entry in the DSM for brain rot (yet).

Agreed. I think I’m fairly well read and I’ve worked through a decent number of philosophical texts, but I’ve never finished Walden.

The safest and most flexible option would be to configure the BIOS to not use the RAID controller and just “see” the drives as a regular JBOD, and then setup a ZFS RAID-Z1 array and configure your zvols, etc. in that instead. RAID-Z1 is functionally very similar to old-school RAID-5. There’s virtually no performance penalty with software RAID these days, and you’re eliminating the proprietary RAID controller as a single point of failure.

On the one hand, I understand the inherent limitations of pseudonymous social media and why a corporation and even end users might benefit from authoritative user identification.

Wouldn’t this technically be reflection, not projection?

He probably would have figured it out had he had time to evolve into Megahertz.

I think that is literally how it’s done today.

Yes technically, but… I was gonna say “how would you even act on that?” but decided I’d prefer not to know.
