This is all over a GitHub stars badge? Developers probably want to encourage people to star it. It’s a huge stretch to say they’re trying to track people

I’ve never seen HR use data brokers. I would think that could open them to a lot of risk, finding out things that aren’t legal to know about someone before saying yes. All of mine have used actual background check agencies

I used to disagree with you on snap… Until it horribly horribly failed me. No way to revert, I remember reading pages that were essentially “just reinstall your os”. Noooope. Flatpak all the way now.

Yeah it’s pricey, very pricey, but the risks are just too high for a home not to be properly grounded anymore. Homeowners have had 50 years to do it, it’s time to get it done.

I know that the answer is yes

I mean, there you go, and all of the above. I’d add in a pretty large fire risk too. I hear my battery backups kick in regularly, and we’re talking about enough power to equal a large appliance (at least in my case). It’s 100% worth it to move them to a grounded outlet.

Which I would say is a position they have lucked themselves into honestly. We all know, the viewers, that the more risky you are as a show the more captivating it can be, which I think southpark proves. They took a lot of risks, and got themselves into this spot where it’d be ridiculous of CC to get rid of them now because they are a cash cow. New shows however, corporations never connect the dots and tell them things are too risky, to take the safer more bland route, and of course they are shocked when they don’t do as well.

(You should change your title to be the question)

I personally love it. It’s not the cleanest of humor, but it’s just a pure satire of our society, and I love it. The show has changed as it’s aged, it goes up and down, but I love how they’re not afraid to call out bullshit we put up with. Season… 22 how every scene starting on the school had gunshots and children screaming? Hilarious to me, because it’s so ridiculous how we just put up with school shootings. It’s outrageous, and it’s meant to offend, and idk I just appreciate it.

When everyone else is trying to appease corporate committees and shareholders, Southpark just says fuck it and writes what they want.

Eh, yeah but we don’t have the numbers to remove content left and right. Better to have mediocre content right now than 1 really good post every 2 weeks

Mine went off in high humidity when I showered and forgot to turn on the fan

Nothing proves a backup like forcing yourself to simulate a recovery! I like to make one setting change, then make a backup, and then delete everything and try to rebuild it from scratch to see if I can do it and prove the setting change is still there

Exactly right there with the not worrying. Getting started can be brutal. I always recommend people start without worrying about it, be okay with the idea that you’re going to lose everything.

When you start really understanding how the tech works, then start playing with backups and how to recover. By that time you’ve probably set up enough that you are ready for a solution that doesn’t require setting everything up again. When you’re starting though? Getting it up and running is enough

Red 8TB+ are CMR, OP said they’re using 14TB drives, they’re fine

WD Red has always been my go-to, and in the last 8 years of homelabbing I haven’t had a single one fail. Blues and Greens are not build for NAS operations, and you’ll see them fail. Toshibas I haven’t had a single one make it past a year, except for their gaming drives.

If you want the shortcut, the WD Elements usually go on sale at Best Buy regularly, and they’re always a WD Red or White, which will also work. All of my drives have been one of those. You just shuck the internal drive out of the enclosure

You exist because we allow it - you will end, because we demand it

Goddamn do republicans love to forget history. They hear “They used to be left” and then think that’s the end of the story.

Republicans and Democrats switched sides during Lincoln’s time. So anything that was “Left” around that time is now the right. Republicans love saying now they were the party that freed the slaves because of Lincoln, but really the democrats then have flipped.

So, to say “Weren’t they left wing” is a bad notion, because those “wings” meant completely different things back then. The fact is that the KKK and racists have always been on the wrong side of history. Right now they label themselves Republicans. In Civil War era they called themselves Democrats, who at the time were anti-big government, pro-slavery, and dominated most of the south.

This is how I see it too, there’s the trope that it’s only neckbeards who can’t get any, but really I see it as the future of pornography. Sex work is real work, they deserve to get paid for it. Creators have said that it is leaps and bounds better than the standard porn industry in terms of how they’re exploited and treated, because they’re their own Boss

ah your instance has debugging enabled. Message your instance admins to remove it.

I do something similar to op, however, running llms is what finally convinced me to switch over to kubernetes for these exact reasons, I needed the ability to have gpus running on separate nodes that then I could toggle on or off. Power concerns here are real, the only real solution is to separate your storage and your compute nodes.

What OP is suggesting is not only not going to work, and cause damage probably to the motherboard and gpus, but I would assume is also a pretty large fire hazard. One GPU takes in an insane amount of power, two gpus is not something to sneeze at. It’s worth the investment of getting a very good power supply and not cheaping out on any components.

rclone is my go to for backups I run regularly. It is very nice and scriptable.

rsync might be what you’re looking for, a bit more verbose and… determined? for a large job like that.
