At this point I don’t think it matters. He could have been raping a zebra while getting pissed on by underage prostitutes, on video (pay per view obviously), and his cult would be “just like Jesus did it”.

You aren’t the only one. It’s very clearly spinning clockwise to my brain, and nothing I do changes that.

Sorry can’t get myself in a tizzy over the tiny amount of money we spend helping people over the gazillions we spend killing them.

Stupid article.

That’s nvts.

Let’s add Pauly Shore and call it Weezing The Beetlejuice.

All enemies, foreign and domestic

Doom 2 totally ripped off Doom. Barely any changes.

Not sure why Doom devs didn’t sue.

The jobs won’t disappear. They’ll just change. The need is obviously there.

Here in Colorado a bunch of drivers just formed a employee owned co-op, both to give the middle finger to Uber and Lyft, and so the drivers can actually earn a living. We need more of that.

Stop using it. It’s that simple.

Gig economy work is horrible for the workers, and incredibly exploitative. The workers frequently make less than minimum wage.

I refuse to order from any restaurant that doesn’t do their own delivery. If enough other people do the same, these places will curl up and die very quickly.

In the last 25 years working with approximately 700 servers that used RAID 5 I saw two of them lose an entire volume. Once was due to a malfunctioning HP RAID controller, and the other was due to a second disk dying while the rebuild from the first failure was still ongoing. There turned out to be a systemic problem with that drive model’s firmware which almost certainly contributed.

So in my experience it’s rare but it definitely does happen.

It can get worse. About 20 years ago the company I was at had an EMC tech yank the wrong power supply from a Symmetrix rack, where the other supply had earlier in the day caught fire! We lost that entire rack’s data (customer’s personal email accounts) due to data corruption. It was probably around 300 10k SCSI disks in that rack, a multimillion dollar expense at the time, and we had to restore all of it from tape over many, many days. Really, really sucked.
