I just upgraded to a Xeon E5 v4 processor.

I think the max RAM on it is about 1.5 TiB per processor or something.

It’s not new, but it’s not that old either. Still cost me a pretty penny.

I think I’ve already watched this. Interesting stuff.

Pretty much everything gets it wrong in stone capacity. Some get very close, but fall short of representing radio in reality.

Just don’t.

As a qualified amateur operator, I’ll just say: that problem isn’t exclusive to die hard movies, nor die hard 1.

I had to stop playing when I saw the review for AC 3 (I think) from Zero punctuation.

He pointed out that the quests were almost entirely “gofer” quests… You know, you go over there and get that, then go fer that other thing and go…

I started the game not long after and I have to say, he was right. And every time I was given a quest to go somewhere only to talk to someone with little to no reason for doing so other than, I have nothing better to do in the game… When that happened, I heard his voice in my head talking about how annoying gofer quests were.

It annoyed me, and I stopped playing as a result. Never got past the first chapter.

I started to realize that the thing I liked about Reddit were the analytical and thoughtful people like me on the platform. When I came here, I found that many came over. When I visit Reddit, either because I’m nostalgic or because I have a specific need for something there, I’m finding more and more recent posts that are mostly filled with trash. Sure, some of the insightful, thoughtful and analytical people are still hanging around, but the vast majority has shifted away from that type of person. Reddit has also become so mainstream that is a stone’s throw away from xitter or Facebook in terms of quality. Everyone and their mother is starting a Reddit account.

I miss when old.reddit.com was just reddit.com.

I have a rucksack, and the design elements I can see from the hostel seem to match up pretty good.

Unless this individual has two fairly costly backpacks that they’re just swapping between, I think the media is calling out an innocent person.

Accounting for that, the hostel guy seems to have a rucksack or similar. They’re quite distinct and notable bags. If it’s not actually a rucksack, it’s something with similar design elements, maybe a knockoff, since rucksacks tend to be rather expensive.

Rucksacks are popular with people who hike/move around a lot, the kind of people who would stop at a hostel for a night before moving on to another area/location/city/country, usually by non-typical means (hiking, walking, hitch hiking, etc).

That’s just the personality type for one such person who would use such a combination of products, and by no means should describe, or imply a description, of the individual illustrated in the image. My entire point to saying any of this is that it’s a very district design.

The shooter has a very simple backpack that lacks most of the notable features that I can see from the backpack/rucksack that the hostel person is using.

They’re both backpacks, but one is notably different than the other.

While it’s feasible they just switched backpacks, IMO it’s far more likely that they’re simply different people.

To me, this kind of naming and shaming attitude of a person of interest in an ongoing investigation by the press is disgusting.

If the images here depict two different people as I suspect they do, then the individual in the hostel images is likely to suffer consequences as a result of the brash and hasty release of their images by the press. It will likely affect them for years to come.

It makes for enticing headlines, that’s for sure, but it’s abysmal journalism. They don’t seem to have any standards left regarding the truth, only whatever will attract the most views/clicks/reads/whatever.

Check your home for carbon monoxide.

I would argue that it’s common sense to at least make a point in time copy, to… IDK, a USB drive? Before trying to implement a new source/control system.

Just plug in an external drive, or a thumb drive, copy/paste, unplug it, then proceed with testing.

I don’t see how anyone who values their time and effort could do any less.

As for the files, undelete is a thing, and it shouldn’t be hard to do.

While I have some sympathy for anyone who loses months of work, as an IT administrator by day, all I have to say about their lack of backups, and lack of RTFM before messing with shit is:

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA. you got what you deserved fucker. GL.YF.

I call any non-native citizen (anyone not born in my country) an import.

Like beer.

I love it.

OP, I hope you know that’s his Xbox now. If you wanna keep playing Xbox stuff, you’ll have to buy a new Xbox to play on, so George can keep his bed.

The average death age of any empire is 250 years.

Tick tock America. You’re proving that figure to be correct.

One thing that was recommended to me by someone a while ago, is that, unless you need it for something specific, mount your media in Plex as read only.

Plex has functions where you can delete content from the library from their UI. If you need that for some reason, obviously don’t make it read only. If you’re hoarding the data, and therefore never delete it, or use an external system for deleting files, then RO all the way.

The only caveat to this is if you’re using a local disk on the Plex system, which then shares out the drive/folder for adding new content, in which case, you’re screwed. It has to be rw so the OS can add/remove data.

In my case, as I think may be common (or at least, not rare), my back end data for Plex Media is on a NAS, so it’s easy to simply have the system running Plex, mount that network share as RO, and you’re done. The data on the NAS can be accessed and managed by other systems RW, direct to the NAS.

Since Plex is exposed to the internet, if anyone with sufficient rights is compromised, in theory, an attacker could delete the entire contents of your media folder with it. If you limit RW access to internal systems only, then that risk can be effectively mitigated.

Don’t argue with the court or the judge, keep your personal comments to yourself. If you disagree with the ruling, keep your mouth shut about it, thank the judge regardless of the outcome.

A lot of “turn the other cheek” applies here. Anything less and you will be held in contempt of court and it will make things worse.

Listen carefully, speak when it’s your turn to speak, don’t talk over anyone, especially the judge.

Beyond that, be honest, and don’t conceal the truth. Do everything you can to be a good participant in the system. Arrive early and if you can, watch what others do and learn from their actions. What they do, what they say, and especially what not to say or do.

You’ll be fine at the end of the day.

Also renew your damn license ASAP. Don’t drive the vehicle that got the infraction (duh), and if possible, get a ride to the courthouse and back again, whether that’s a friend, a taxi, an Uber/Lyft, it doesn’t matter. If the judge decides to put you in jail (unlikely, but possible) you don’t have to worry about your vehicle being towed or something, and you won’t get additional fines as you travel there.

All the best OP. You got this.

Depends on the UPS. Many cheap offline UPS units don’t. Anything line interactive or online will.

APC makes low end offline UPS units, which are cheap garbage.

They also make line interactive and online ups units, which are decidedly not completely garbage.

I pick up line interactive APC units from used locations like eBay, and go buy off label replacement batteries. Haven’t had any problems with them so far.

To date, over the last ~10 years of running a homelab, I have used mainly SMT 1500 units, one was a rack mount. I’ve recently upgraded to an SMX2000. I’ve replaced batteries, but never a UPS, and never any server components due to power issues. I’ve run servers ranging from a Dell PE 2950, to a full c6100 chassis, plus several networking devices, including firewalls, routers and PoE switches. Not a single power related issue with any of them.

Fair enough. Local admin is generally not something that I would want to restrict from people, especially those that are, or at least, should be, more knowledge than most.

I’ll fight for that right for people most of the time.

Some users I would say should not have it, but generally developers are not those people. You know the ones.
