You’re absolutely right!

Lightbars drive me wild. Fucking guys running those on the highway make me want to choose violence. How incredibly fucking oblivious do you have to be to have that turned on when on road.

From low caffeine, right? Me too.

This is brandishing. There is no way this should have been dropped.

Condolences on dating Elizabeth Olsen!

I run on dual Xeon R410s with 128Gb of RAM (2013?). Got them for free, on Kijiji. Runs Proxmox on both and a pile of VMs. Dual GB nics, 6 SAS bays, HBA in IT mode for ZFS. Has iLo for OOB management, or whatever the Dell equivalent is.

I mean, it’s not fast, but each server has 24 cores and I can chunk PDF files fairly quickly for RAG on 10 cores and have plenty for mail server, Nextcloud, K8S running some side hustle apps, etc, etc. Kind of a noisy prick when it winds up though.

Buy old servers.

I really want a pickup with a shortish range. I don’t need 800km, I need about 250 at the absolute max, and most days less than 100. But it has to be 4WD and have a box big enough to hold farm equipment and mucky things like newborn calves.

The Slate would be perfect if it were 4WD. I need absolutely nothing in the way of creature comforts except a heater and AC. I can’t stand listening to a radio so a BT speaker would do me fine.

The factory ones are blinding now. This isn’t a misalignment issue anymore. At one time you could say that and have a good chance of being right.

Whatever it is, it’s totally tubular.

The auto industry contributes almost nothing to the Canadian economy. I’d love to see homegrown EVs but much like solar panels, they aren’t going to be cost effective if we build them. I’m not rushing out to buy a $100k pickup either.

The Zorin thing was a shameless astroturfing campaign. I guess it got the downloads they were looking for, but I was sure fucking tired of it by the time it was over.

And yes, it doesn’t live up to the hype. It’s a bunch of FOSS tools everyone else uses, but branded as “Zorin” tools. I have no problem with a distro trying to drum up users, but the way they go about it is embarassing.

And as usual from Oracle, it isn’t worth free. You better have a good backup, because they’ll shut that shit off on you without warning.

Had to know Kai was going to show up.

It’s an anonymous mailing survey, or at least it was. It’s hard to believe there’s any social stigma affecting it, and Canada isn’t known for having much pressure on gay people these days, at least in the more secular groups.

Idk, its anecdotal but I was in an auditorium in the local university area last night for a Valentine’s day improv performance and I was looking around at the couples, and it was at least 95% man-woman. If there was any place I’d expect to see gay couples, that was it, but I’m not seeing what the alt-right twats are crying about.

Canadian Health Survey self-reported gay as 1% in 2003 to 1.7% in 2014. Bisexuality was 0.7% in 2003 and had doubled by 2014.

You would have to try pretty hard to kill yourself with a hotwire even if you had a heart condition. Like lay on your side on the ground and grab the hotwire so maybe the circuit went through your heart and not entirely followed the shortest path to ground along your side.

A car battery would do shit all. Dry skin potential point is like 65V.
