That’s it, I’m gettin me mallet!

Ok yea, but it’s 6MB, it’s inconsequential with today’s storage densities and a modern system can handle it with ease

Although, using floppy disks has the advantage that everyone has to make sure their file sizes are small enough to fit on them. Which makes for much easier handling for those who don’t use floppy disks.

What? How is that at all relevant in today’s age?

I get the best of both worlds, it takes sustained pressure for a LONG time for me to get angry about something and when I finally do get angry it fizzles out and I’m over it in a matter of minutes to a max of about an hour.

But then again, most of my “negative” emotions are like that, grief, sadness, anger etc fizzle out quickly and I’m back to “baseline”. It’s like there’s a switch on brain that goes “Ok, that’s enough of that, back to normal”, not sure how normal that is in relation to others LMAO

Yo ho! yo ho! A pirate’s life for me, Sailing through the broadband, on the digital sea. With torrents and downloads, we navigate the waves, Seeking out the treasure in cyberspace’s caves.

We plunder and we crack, from software far and wide, Our digital fleet sails, with bandwidth as our tide. No map or compass needed, we follow the online trail, In search of hidden files, and secrets to unveil.

Yo ho! yo ho! A pirate’s life for me, With DRM to crack, and torrents running free. We hoist the Jolly Roger, on virtual high seas, Aye, we be the scourge of the modern IPs.

With VPNs to cloak us, and proxies in our wake, The legend of net pirates, just rumors and hearsay. So raise a glass of energy drink, to the life we lead so free, For we are modern pirates, on the vast and boundless sea.

Yo ho! yo ho! With every byte we claim, We’ll sing our shanty proudly, in the digital domain!

Lol I wish, but if anybody on the KoTH reboot reads this my DMs are open lmao

If only Dark Brandon would be allowed to send this to the court in reply

I would do option A, but instead of just not using the free internet, I would use it for everything else not needing server services. So like streaming or general browsing.

Just leaving the Google fiber as a dedicated pipe for all my self hosted services

You can do this kind of split with pfSense easily

Nah,

Buck Strickland would get Hank to go along with it (maybe even enthusiastically) for the initial “Good” stages where they try to make propane delivery far better and more streamlined for customers blah blah blah. Buck would hide/skip over the “Taking investment money, while not making any profit” parts

Eventually Hank would start getting a few questions popping up in his head when he starts realizing the propane is being sold cheap, too cheap. He’d go to Buck and Buck would be able to shift Hank away.

Then the enshittification stage hits and Hank realizes what’s going on, after a while of “Bucks got this” he’ll get infuriated when Bobby shows him online comments from people complaining of the now crappy service. He goes to confront Buck, only to find him drunk AF at a stripper club and not giving AF because he’s gonna be rich.

Meanwhile Peggy, infuriated at these online comments from people, makes Bobby show her how to get one of “these new social applications” and proceeds to defend her husband online, while discovering that she finds it addictively fun.

Hank will try to confront him again the next day, only to find Buck freaking TF out because things aren’t working out like he thought and beg Hank to fix things like usual.

Hank sits down and cranks out a solid and reasonable plan for profitability, makes Buck pay back the investors to take back control and restores things back to profitable normalcy. When he gets back home after, he finds Peggy stuck on her phone desperately fighting against a storm of trolls, he just takes the phone and turns it off and carries her to bed

Fin.

I am just shocked, SHOCKED I say. Well, not that shocked.

When passing or storing data in code you usually have to specify what type of data is it. An int is an integer, so numbers, there’s also boolean (true/false) and many others. There’s also string which is just characters of any kind (for the most part) which pretty much makes it a catch-all, since numbers can be a string along with letters and special characters.

But to use a number as a number after it’s been received as a string it has to be converted to an int, which means extra code, more effort, more failure points etc etc.

“if that guy ever comes back in the building I’ll quit”

You can’t just leave a story like that lol, did “sr dev” come back into the building? Did the other dev follow through on his threat? So many questions

Right, just checked their website and a maxed 15 pro max is 1600$ lol that’s a lot for what you get

Buy a dual hose portable AC, that’s what I did when I lived in an apartment that would get VERY hot no matter what. (Actually, to save some $$ I got a single hose and modified it to a dual hose, but depending on the specific model and the tolerances they built it to, it risks short cycling and possibly burn out)

They’re still not nearly efficient as a window AC, but far far better than those single hose ones

If you can fit a window AC do that instead, if you are able to make modifications, a small mini split/heat pump system would do wonderfully. Though I have heard that they make mini splits that go through small windows rather then needing to drill through the wall, so that might be an option too.

The other tips and tricks are nice, if you have exhausted all other AC options and simply can’t have an AC at all (Which is mostly due to cost, dual hose portable ACs are pricey) but they really don’t compare to an actual AC system.

Its not too late technically, you’ve listed all sorts of technical and logistical reasons, but it’s far too late to a get a fresh face in front of people and expect them to vote for them.

That’s the too late part, it’s possible, but it would be a massive risk and very expensive as they’d need to be running ADs non stop everywhere to go from a “fresh face” to “votable face” with the general public in 4 months

Not to mention, you think the red states wouldn’t do everything they can to stop having to change their ballots? I can see it now: “We’re 4 months from the election, can’t change it now ohhh welll!” ~Shithole Red states

I have a feeling lots of people are just now learning this lmao

Surprised it took this long for a TIL post lol

If you lack an IDE port on your motherboard

Bro, IDE has been dead for YEARS now, I’d be shocked if there was an IDE connector on any consumer computer made in the last 10 years (Industrial stuff can get weird)

A simple scan is fine, but to actually image a dying drive for recovery purposes, you should absolutely be doing a direct connection
