Well I use key-based login for security; obscurity just keeps the network congestion down

You can use any port for ssh. When I switched from 22 to 1337, brute force attempts at logging in stopped

maybe we as a society could standardize fridge sizes so we could build fridges that open on the inside but radiate on the outside

That would be more useful for places where houses are generally air conditioned

It can store enough energy to output 85MW for 100 hours, which is 8.5GWh. That’s also probably very optimistic math, unless it actually stores more than 8.5GWh, and that’s the reduced value accounting for losses

More like a peasant nuke

Jim Bob the bridge builder

Beats being named Jim Bob the goat fucker

Gotta remember to bring the name binder though :P

…this is why I leave the DMing to my friend

“They aren’t attached enough to the horses to have chosen names for them, they are referred to by their coat colour.”

“What colours are they?”

“…fuck.”

Look at you, planning in advance

Sometimes truth is shallower than fiction

What’s a DVD?

I’ve found a couple plugs “upgraded” to 3-prong by jumping the load and ground together. That made for a fun firework show when my metal fan touched something metal. Even the landlord was impressed by that stupidity.

Ah, the good old reverse polarity bootleg ground.

Fun fact: RPBG is the one fault that those plug-in outlet testers can’t recognize

Edit: Wait, no, that would be hot bootleg ground, they should catch that. RPBG has the hot and neutral switched, and also a bootleg ground to the neutral that’s actually hot

Reminds me of a story about magic

I agree. Given that I use Gmail, Google ought to know basically everything about me, so why do I keep getting ads for diamonds, instead of GPUs?

Why are they spying on me if they aren’t going to use that information?

That is madness. I love it

I’ve found SMB to more frequently have connection issues with my Linux clients, and often be slower. It’ll work, but if you’re mainly supporting Linux clients, might as well set up NFS if you like toying with things anyways

SMB for the windows clients, possibly NFS as well for the others. *nix will talk with SMB fine, but NFS may be faster. Windows’ NFS support is shit though.

Running both daemons won’t really add much overhead

Flac for storage, turn up the compression level. Transcode to an appropriate format when copying or streaming to a device

It creates lemonade popsicles
