And then you're left searching for bullshit error messages and potentially unable to fix the problem regardless of your level of expertise.

ehh... I think you're missing the part where Microsoft is actively exploiting its customer base throughout its entire product catalogue - the likelihood that this is an actual win is no.

Enough to necessitate this meme.

This is the worst second-hand embarrassment I've experienced in quite a while. I can't imagine working with someone like this.

using a rly bad word but pretending not to is kinda weird

From the bottom of my tortured soul: fuck Windows.

Fuck MS Word tho, no?

and sometimes we do care about successful delivery but need to handle that ourselves so we use UDP to avoid layering delivery verification mechanisms.

Oh no.

Unfortunately I have a lot of experience with this: attaching permanent array members via USB is a bad idea. OP, if it's not too late, and assuming you haven't already and decided to double down on yolo, I'd recommend reading about the downsides of this approach. It is easy to find relevant discussions (and catastrophes) in r/zfs.

Thunderbolt enclosures are a bit more expensive, but they won't periodically fuck up your shit just because.

Around AUD $4500

Am I stupid for feeling skeptical still?

You seem like the target demographic, actually.

• I'm quite confident that, more often than not, women face greater challenges than men.

• This post is fucking weird.

For me, the cool part is that the vast majority of people can't tell anything has changed.

Also, we can be rather poisonous ourselves.

I find it amusing to consider current 'AI' in terms of Wolfenstein 3D or even Pong - soon enough we will be firing up old LLMs on our phones for a nostalgic laugh.

The more you grow in experience the more you're going to realize that syntax and organization is the majority of programming work.

organization, absolutely - but syntax? c'mon...

Holy XY.

Why are you doing this? What are you trying to achieve?

Mindfulness. Don't resist the urges, but every time you smoke, practice being present - literally just try to keep your attention on what you are doing. Don't judge yourself for doing it, just notice. If you are able to do this, it will help with much more than just quitting smoking.

With Google it's usually just rm name

It sounds a lot less like George than I expected.

Are you familiar with ?

Sometimes our brains don't work properly. It's ok. You've held yourself accountable. You're a bit more careful now, and so is he. That's enough - it has to be.

You should probably attempt to understand the topic / post before diving in.

Don't lie to your children about someone sneaking into the house at night while everyone is asleep, it's fucking weird.

I get it, but you're arguing in favour of negligent IT. If nobody dares to touch something, it is a liability.

Speaking of Nazis, we don't use apostrophes to pluralize words.

There is no sh shell.

lol

Am I confused, or are you confidently asserting that desktop systems are objectively superior to laptops?

I agree that it's stupid to reuse something as common as ETA, but 'edit' does not necessarily imply addition.

Specious.

They were ridiculed because it is easier to make fun of the person causing ethical discomfort than it is to sincerely contemplate one's beliefs.

The method itself is not problematic.

Yeah.

Dementia combined with a complete lack of inhibition results in a presence that is much more compelling to idiots compared to someone who periodically stumbles as they attempt to compensate for their cognitive decline.

You must really dislike it - I'd have trouble not laughing if someone asked me this.

Casting doubt on environmental factors without conclusive evidence simplifies a complex issue. Science thrives on openness to new data, not dismissing possibilities without thorough investigation.

Personally, I don't think you should be telling folks "how science works".

I think consciousness as an emergent property is basically undeniable by anyone with even a superficial grasp of the concept and its implications, so while our clever 'intentional' iteration may not get us there directly, these barriers will be overcome by the inevitable force of ever-increasing complexity.

Even without this, though, consider how easy it would be to add a check like this. It would need to be generalized, and it still wouldn't be ... real, but is there a metric that matters more than our inability to differentiate?

Yeah, you don't want a surveillance drive. They are optimized for continuous writes, not random IO.

It's probably worth familiarizing yourself with the difference between CMR and SMR drives.

If you expect this to keep growing, it might make sense to switch to SAS now - then you can find some really cheap enterprise class drives on ebay that will perform a bit better in this type of configuration. You'd just need a cheap HBA (like a 9211-8i) and a couple breakout cables. You can use SATA drives with a SAS HBA, but not the other way around.

...is not the word you are looking for

Has any of this been verified by other sources? It seems either they've cleaned it up, or this is a smear campaign.

It was no trouble.

It's also because they fucking suck at managing complexity. Almost everything they make is fourteen arbitrarily named editions of the exact same bug-riddled trash we know and love. 365/Azure/fuckingentrawhat are barely usable. It's almost like they specialize in UI synchronization bugs - but I remember this being a problem even with Windows 3.1.

I realize this isn't a particularly hot take on Lemmy, but let's not pretend that all software is equally deficient - because there absolutely are better options.
