When will it be commercially available though? Supposedly Seagate has had 30TB drives out for the better part of a year, but I can’t find anything larger than 24TB actually available for purchase.

Clockwise=lockwise

The rich can also be eaten.

Most hardrives live in servers, as part of storage volumes where IO can be optimised well beyond the capability of a single disk.

For the boot disk on my workstation I am absolutely using an SSD, but for the hundreds of terabytes of largely static data that I need to keep archived? Spinning disks all the way. Not only to SSDs need to match on price, but they also have a long way to come in terms of longevity.

If it is earmarked for purely defensive equipment, it still indirectly funds their genocide by freeing up other money for it.

My laymans assumption is that acupuncture likely has a counterirritant effect, which can make pain seem less pronounced.

Sort of like how punching yourself in the side of the head can provide relief for a migraine.

In the majority of cases, its still going to be stuck under a mangled car that you cant move because it is on fire. A better solution might be to route multiple ‘flood tubes’ to the battery compartment and place them in easy accessible places. That way you would just need to pop pff an access panel and hook up a hose.

No, they are omnivores, meaning that they do not require meat.

The trick is to justify buying one for your business, and then using it yourself after hours.

As a business asset, it has paid for itself fivefold in less than a year. As an employee of said business, i have unlimited access to a machine that I could never personally justify the expense of.

Counterpoint to that, the guy had a known history of locking himself inside those things and trying to escape as a challenge.

The kīngitanga movement arose generally out of opposition to european expansion. Groups of Māori determined that if they could unite the disparate tribes under a single leader they would have more power to resist the british.

It only dates back to the 1800s and doesnt have the support of all tribes, but much like the european monarchs they are effectively just soft power figureheads.

Rwd is just a less complex system, meaning it can be made cheaper. At it’s most basic, you have a single universal joint and a differential as the only “complex” parts. You dont have to worry about transmission of power to wheels which are constantly changing alignment.

The internet banking portal for one of my banks forces a monthly password reset. As a result it is the only bank account for which i have the password saved in my browser, instead of being a nice long memorable phrase that lives only in my head.

You dont need a charge controller. They’re more of a safety and battery longevity feature.

If you just need to get enough juice into this thing to outrun the next horde of zombies, any dc voltage source a couple of volts jigher than the nominal charge of the battery can do in a pinch. Cracking the pack open and charging individual cells is also an option if you can’t find one with a high enough voltage.

I absolutely dont recommend this under normal circumstances, but electrics are far easier to repair from scrap than combustion engines.

Fluorides, like all trace elements, naturally occur in many water sources. The reason water flouridation caught on initially was because of the strong correlation between locations with water supplies naturally high in fluoride and better dental health.

If it helps, 80% of the work i do when wearing my sysadmin hat is just ensuring that all of our systems are communicating properly.

I did like one semester of computer science, does that count?

Honestly I just google shit until I understand it. Linux has great documention, and where it fails you can just read the source code.

No, much like the ‘trial by ordeal’, in more religious times it was believed that god(s) would grant favour to those who were truly righteous and/or innocent, allowing them to survive an ordeal or win a fight.

It was effectively a verdict rendered by god, rather than the courts.

How fucked is the electoral system in the USA that a leading candidate can have their platform effectively be “I’ll be less genocidal than that guy”?

What the fuck kind of system allows for the only options to be 100% genocide or 75% genocide?

There is a recent New Zealand Today episode that interviews him. IIRC, he was involved in a number of low level scams at the time, and was arrested while dining on a stolen credit card. Man was just a natural showman, who wasnt going to go down quietly.
