It was a problem with early WD green drives IIRC. The power management was exceptionally aggressive and caused massive issues when put in to any RAID-like set up. You could override it though generally.

I manage a web dev team. We try to optimise as much as possible but then there’s all sorts of tracking that gets tacked on by personalisation teams, opti teams, things like Tik Tok, Facebook, Twitter/X scripts inserted too… It’s pretty shit. And sometimes when things break it makes it super hard to debug too

I just came back to this thread. What did I start?! :)

It’s because he’s wearing a double-breasted suit. Not really in fashion anymore.

(Useless fact for you :))

Same here for the same reasons (although I started with FreeBSD 4.x) and have adapted to ZFS and Jails over the years.

The POLA (Principle Of Least Astonishment) when it comes to changes is awesome too.

I’m trying to remember this correctly, but traditionally /home is a symlink of /usr/home. I think that’s deprecated and you should now just have /home

A couple of years ago I ended up in the 1% because of one single thing I posted 2 weeks after I signed up purely to generate some rage because so many subs needed minimum karma… Can completely attest to this.

I present Dual_EC_DRBG as a great example of “you can’t trust shit”

But also CPUs and motherboards may be compromised too. Whether it’s by China or the US… It’s a plausible thing. Intel IME and AMD Secure Processor amongst others…

Yeah it’s a pain in the arse. I 100% recommend Broadcom or Intel NICs for a router. I have a fileserver which has several Intel NICs and a single Realtek one and the latter is a PITA.

If you’re using any FreeBSD-based OS you should manually compile the realtek-re-kmod port. Make sure your kernel source is in sync with what you’re running.

In one case I found out they lied to me about why we broke up and the second she became a horrible, vindictive person after we broke up and started spreading lies and rumours about 6 month after we split. Originally both breakups were quite amicable and soured and they didn’t understand that that had quite a lot to do with my decision to 100% no contact.

I don’t think I’m 100% against it now that I think about it further. I just seem to have a history of dating people with an underlying hurtful streak and/or poor empathy…

Yep I second this. I have gone NC with all my exes. Two wanted continued contact but that’s just not me and sometimes people ask me what they’re up to and I can happily respond I have NFI.

The past is the past.

Not quite. I’m pretty sure I have at least one spare floating around. Will take a pic when I get the chance!

There’s a brand (I think it’s a small bakery here) that uses an awesome dual-wire one that I always keep because it is more a ‘clamp/clasp’ clip than a ‘tie/twist wire’ clip

They use their own kernel but a lot of the userland is FreeBSD-based (and some senior FreeBSD contributers are also Apple employees)

Intel also had them in their higher end consumer gear (eg. their high-end NUCs etc)

“Basically Apple created” is a bit reductionist. The USB-IF also includes Microsoft, HP, Intel and Texas Instruments amongst a couple of others (can’t recall them off the top of my head).

Also Thunderbolt was created by both Intel and Apple in collaboration…

That does kinda scream “I would be happy to kill all humans but don’t want to say it…”

It’s kinda like:

“Are you a nazi?”

“It might be time to move onto a new topic.”

“That’s not a no…”

Nurgle looks like he’d fit in well in the US. This is him at a food kitchen!
