    It has nothing to do with modern hardware since you’re still limited by the read speed of your disks. Given we’re talking about spinning rust, that will take tens of minutes to complete a couple hundred gig, and even more so if you’re transferring tons of small files.

    I could easily see it taking over an hour for a 200+gb install. Even going at the theoretical max, you’re looking at 20min just in data. Tacking on added latency from opening and closing many small files and any kind of fragmentation/disk location, that’s going to add significant time to the transfer.





  • I have a tailored suit in my closet, but there’s no way in fuck I’m showing up to work in that suit or any other suit.

    For one, I work from home and I want to actually be comfortable. For two, if I was going into the office, I would ruin it at some point crawling under desks and behind racks and shit.

    Casual clothes killed most ironing but ain’t nobody showing up in a wrinkled suit.

    Unless you’re upper management or going to a wedding/funeral/formal event, why would you even wear a suit? In the last decade I’ve worn my suit 3 or 4 times in the last decade, and they were all weddings or funerals.




  • I was just telling my partners yesterday that I knew we were getting old, because all the restaurants we’ve gone to recently are playing music we grew up and came of age listening to. On one hand its nice to hear stuff I actually enjoy listening to. On the other, that just means I can start to feel the stale breath of the reaper on the back of my neck.
