for my first job one of the responsibilities was cleanup after the overnight bakery shift. I used to have to clean out a walk-in oven, usually still warm, always freaked me out a little. That poor, poor girl, that poor, poor family. Simply terrible and tragic.

truth be told, the only reason I would be even remotely interested in the device is the stupid laser projector. Seems like that might be fun to play with.

I’d try one for $29.99, that’s about it though.

oh, I get it. the target of my ire isn’t just elmo, it’s the fact that so many smoothbrains can’t see the naked truth.

The fact that this obvious liar and fraudster is the worlds richest human has just broken my brain. My god humans are stupid.

I am a huge fan of immich, been running it for quite a while, it started as just phone photo backup but it’s good enough that I’ve made it my primary photo repository (fully backed up of course). I will absolutely pay for a license but count me as one who doesn’t really like the terminology used.

I would happily put a donated or supporter badge to show off, but the unlicensed just feels a bit wrong. I have no trouble paying for software, especially as useful as immich, but in the enshittifying world we live in, such language gives one pause.

I would love to try one. Not for $3500.

the internet was a mistake

I eat the whole banana, skin and all. Who has time for peeling?

came here to suggest VanDAM but looks like it’s been renamed. Looking for the same solution myself and was going to try it out.

I mean, yes. I kinda thought everyone agreed.

100% agreed. It’s mostly my own brain I’m fighting though, I came from a very toxic environment and am having a hard time adjusting to life that isn’t spent under a bus.

This “entrepreneurial mindset” is what’s making it so hard to adjust to my new role. Recently took a job that’s new to me but since I always feel responsible and will try to fix everything, I’m having a lot of trouble staying in my lane. I need to keep reminding myself, just because I can do something, doesn’t make it my responsibility, nor do I deserve the blame if I don’t swoop in to fix it.

Bingo. I’ve been running refurb 4tb hgst drives for years now, oldest one has 50k power on hours and I’m not sure if that’s how long I’ve run it or if it had a bunch when it came. Either way, I have yet to lose one in years of use while popping several western digital and seagate drives.

I’m moving to 10tb drives (I tend to pick the biggest sub $100 drive option when I need a new standard) since I’m out of drive bays and nearly out of space on the old garbage array. Stick to the 3-2-1 rule and these should be fine.

Incorrect, the hyperloop always had precisely one purpose, for which it likely was pretty successful: https://jalopnik.com/did-musk-propose-hyperloop-to-stop-california-high-spee-1849402460
