It’s way too late at night for me to give an in-depth answer, but I just wanted to let you know that if you plan on adding drives over time, you might want to check out running the disks in JBOD instead of RAID and the use ZFS to create the storage volume. Redundancy supported, and you can add disks whenever you need more space. The disks don’t even have to be the same size.
Skill: probably
Interest: Probably not
Source: Around the turn of the millennium, I enjoyed remote snooping on other people’s PCs for a short while. It was short because the contents of the PC of the average person turned out to be mindnumbingly boring.
neidu3@sh.itjust.worksto Lemmy Moderators@lemmy.world•Not sure where to ask - unmarked bot?English2·14 hours agoI was curious about the same, mostly because of just that: curiosity.
Also, cudos for making the effort of crossposting .ml content for those of us who have them blocked.
I’ll change my tag for you accordingly.
Note: I may have been the one who sparked the discussion regarding your status as human, as I asked some fellow mods via Matrix. Sorry for any trouble this may have caused. We have to be safe these days with both Cylons and Replicants among us, you know.
Live long and prosper.
neidu3@sh.itjust.worksMto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are some "toy programs" you've created?English2·15 hours agoWhy: I case I want to show something unplanned to someone. Freak accident in a game, for example.
Disk: It’s only keeping the latest 30 minutes in a buffer. Saving basically means copying that buffer to a different file.
neidu3@sh.itjust.worksMto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are some "toy programs" you've created?English6·20 hours agoI mostly write utilities/tools like this. Some examples from my ~/bin/ folder:
- A script that turns caps lock off and numlock on, and remaps caps lock to compose. I have this run by cron every minute.
- A script that saves the current buffer of my continously running screen recorder to a file. Bound to the Lenovo coilot key.
- A half-finished script that downloads and installs the latest version of discord, as Discord and ants me to manually upgrade it every time I start it.
Edit: OH, and on my work laptop I have a script named Fnkeyfuckery. The keyboard layout is annoying in that I have to choose between Function keys or have Home+End.
I want my function keys AND I want home+end. Luckily I don’t need F11 and F12 very often, so I’swapped around those two with their alternate function. That way I have F1 through F10, Home and End by default, and if I hold Fn I can have F11 and F12 too. It runs on startup.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen fireflies, probably because of the Latitude I live at.
2009 radio compensated for it heavily, though.

neidu3@sh.itjust.worksMto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If you could add any new rule to a sport or game you enjoy, what rule and why?English62·21 hours agoI’d go even further and say red card for taking a dive. Pretending to be struck/hit by another player in an attempt to get an advantage = cheating. Cheaters shouldn’t be allowed to play.
It got a little better after they started with video ref’ing, but 90’s Italian football still left its disgusting mark on the sport.
neidu3@sh.itjust.worksto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•After Israel and USA's bombing, wouldn't any supposed nuclear bombs go off if there were any?English26·1 day agoAnd even “precise” would be understating it. Not only is a specific shape of the detonation required, but timing is crucial too. Otherwise you’ll end up with a fizzle.
But yes, the main concern is nuclear contamination in the target area.
neidu3@sh.itjust.worksMto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•I want to run a poll, just out of curiosity.English11·1 day agoNone of the above, I think? I deal with boaty things. Computery stuff regarding survey boaty things, to be precise.
If I absolutely had to choose, I’d say internal support for a trade, although I think a trade would involve trade school.
Actually, on paper I’m considered office personnel, although my “office” is my bedroom, and 20% of the time I’m on the far side of the world.
neidu3@sh.itjust.worksMto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Fellow Lemmings, in work-place conversations (like conflict resolutions, negotiations etc), where you feel you are being misunderstood, how do you manage to realign the conversation?English11·2 days agoA couple of times I’ve reoriented meetings and discussion by stating something akin to “We’re getting away from the core of the issue here, let’s take a few steps back to ensure we’re evaluating this with the same objective facts in mind”
I’ve found that this is pretty effective at aligning the conversation with the actual issue at hand. And by listing the relevant objective facts, I make sure that everyone in the room has the same foundation as I. If anyone wants to play office politics and/or have an agenda beyond what’s in front of us, it’s harder for them to maneuver around the objectivity I try to stick to. It also ensures that any misunderstandings about the underlying facts can be cleared up or otherwise addressed
It’s about two days away, according to the latest headlines
What if he pointed at you instead, and just left after saying it?
neidu3@sh.itjust.worksMto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Does your language have animal slangs?English6·2 days agoIn Norwegian, Grouse (Rype. Don’t bother trying, you’re definitely pronouncing it incorrectly) somehow became slang for an attractive woman. Not used that often anymore, though.
Caged owl (Burugle) is slang for an unattractive woman.
neidu3@sh.itjust.worksto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why is U2 considered "grunge?"English2·3 days agoYeah, it’s kind of ironic that their only popular song in n the US is Song 2 that was meant to mimic the US grunge sound that they don’t like.
Yup. As an amateur chess player I’ll be the first to admit that chess is a pretty boring game. Stories like this makes it much less boring.
Is it my fault imagination, or did Joey from Friend get increasingly more dumb as the series progressed?
