  • Yeah, I dunno what to say besides that it happened to me twice. Probably close to 25 years ago while upgrading my 12GB HDD to a 80GB Seagate Barracuda, I decided to try running both drives together for a whopping 92GB of storage. Whatever jumper combination I tried first ended up with one of the drives not being recognized, so I tried another combination, either both master or both slave, and the control board on the 12GB drive let out the smoke and that drive was never able to be recognized again. I don’t remember exactly what happened the second time, but I know it happened twice because I felt really stupid about not learning my lesson from the first time. Not saying there couldn’t have been something else going on, but they had keyed IDE headers that couldn’t have been reversed and no other issues until I tried the incompatible jumper combination.

    WATCH: The 60 Minutes CECOT Segment

    Jump

  • The last time I watched a 60 Minutes segment, it was hosted by Andy Rooney. But now I’ve seen this one and I think a lot of other people will too. Better still, they’ll see it contextualized as something the government didn’t want them to see. Thanks, Streisand Effect!

  • And if you tried to run more than one HDD and got those jumpers wrong, it would let the magic smoke out of one of your drives.

  • If Americans Had Serbians' Balls...

    Jump

  • And yet, that explains absolutely nothing about the relevance of Pearl Harbor to this situation, which is what this particular thread of the discussion was related to. Thanks for the downvote anyway, though.

  • If Americans Had Serbians' Balls...

    Jump

  • No, the sign makes sense and highlights the main reason the Serbs are so opposed to the hotel. The proposed site was a historical building that was bombed by NATO during the war for Kosovo’s independence. Serbs pretty universally see those events as “American” bombings and often cite them as cause to despise the US. So, the sign is pointing out the insensitivity of an American developer building a hotel in that location by comparing it to a Japanese developer building a hotel in Pearl Harbor.

    Given how deeply Serbia is within the sphere of Russian influence, I doubt they care one way or the other that it’s affiliated with Jared Kushner, they just don’t like that it would have been owned by an American.

  • Steam winter sale is live. What patient games are you picking up?

    Jump

  • Yup, I’m super tempted to start stocking up on cheap VR games in anticipation for the Frame, but I need to see the final price and be 100% sure I’m going for it before I commit to games that I can’t otherwise play.

  • Reset to 2016? We should be so lucky. I’ll be amazed if they have the political will to even reset back to 2024 and undo the damage that has been inflicted just this year alone.

  • Thank Goodness You're Here - most absurd & hilarious game what did I just play?

  • That guy who lives in the dumpster definitely shows full frontal nudity at a couple points.

  • THIS is a real test of how old you are. If you score 20 your future is short

    Jump

  • Right, but that’s usually called a “mix tape”, not “mixed” unless that’s some kind of regional thing. I’ve never heard anyone call that a “mixed tape” before this post.

  • What Youtube channel has maintained high quality standards over the years?

  • All true, except he’s in Queensland, Australia.

  • Hundreds of protesters bought ice scrapers from Home Depot and immediately return them to freeze sales [Monrovia, CA]

    Jump

  • The items the people are holding in the video are just generic plastic putty knives, not purpose-made ice scrapers (i.e. they came from the paint department, not automotive). Still works for the purposes of the protest, but I agree they probably don’t stock very many ice scrapers.

  • Put it to the right next time, I dare you

  • No, look. The controls in BOTW/TOTK are really simple. The sprint/go fast button is always B. Unless you’re on a horse - then it’s A.

    Or if you’re swimming or climbing, because then it’s X.

  • ‘Mega-layoffs’ under Trump as corporations have cut 1 million jobs this year—most since 2003

  • I’m actually kind of shocked by the names at the bottom of the list. Like really? Marco Rubio’s entire net worth is less than a cheap house in the SF Bay Area?

  • Absolutely right. Moore was the lamest, laziest, most uninspiring Bond actor. Some of his movies are fun despite him, but it’s a shame he was in so many.

  • DNC chair defends party's redistricting push: This isn't 'your grandfather's Democratic Party that just rolled over'

    Jump

  • I’m not mad. I’m glad they’re showing some semblance of backbone for once. I just think it’s a poorly chosen cliche for him to use the “your grandfather’s Democratic Party” bit, when the party of the past didn’t have the cowardice issues that the current one has had this very same year.

  • DNC chair defends party's redistricting push: This isn't 'your grandfather's Democratic Party that just rolled over'

  • No, my grandfather’s Democratic Party instituted the New Deal. The Democratic Party that “just rolled over” was you just a few months ago.

  • Chipotle stock craters as company says young people without jobs can't afford their food anymore

    Jump

  • That, and it was seen as relatively healthy for fast food. It was one of the only fast food options at the time where not everything was fried and drowning in saturated fats. Prior to Chipotle, Subway was considered the healthiest fast food chain.

  • What the hell happened around 2010? Smartphones?

    Jump

  • Right, totally in agreement that their popularity has continued to grow since 2010. Now compare that graph to the graph in the post. SUVs didn’t just come out of nowhere in 2010, but the increase in pedestrian fatalities seemingly did. Therefore other factors besides just the popularity of large vehicles must have contributed to the massive increase in pedestrian fatalities.
