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.

Skill: probably

I don’t think I’ve ever seen one, mostly down to the Latitude I live at.
2009 radio compensated for it heavily, though.
- Comment on After Israel and USA's bombing, wouldn't any supposed nuclear bombs go off if there were any? 4 days ago:
And 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.
- Comment on Why is U2 considered "grunge?" 6 days ago:
Yeah, it’s kind of ironic that their only popular song in n the US is Song 2 that was meant to mimic the USgrunge sound that they don’t like.

I’m not into furry stuff, but I imagine that’s basically how a yiff starts.

- Comment on Why is U2 considered "grunge?" 1 week ago:
Yeah, I was tempted to write myself, as it fits at least a few of their songs. I decided against it because I feel that I haven’t listened to enough of their discography to make a generalized observation on the matter.
- Comment on Why is U2 considered "grunge?" 1 week ago:
Yeah, I cannot recall ever hearing U2 referred to under a specific subgenre of rock, especially not grunge. Personally, if I hat to choose, I think classifying them as generic rock is more accurate.

Middle aged man here. No offense taken. I don’t like us either.
- Comment on Why do some people hate drinking water? 1 week ago:
Never been, but I’m sure their tap water is great for the same reason mine is: Plenty of mountainous lakes, and not that many people around them.
I generally don’t drink nk bottled water… It tastes… stale.

Made me chuckle. Nice one.

Contact TheDude or one of the other admins via Matrix, and they’ll sort it out for you, I’m sure.

That’s pretty cool, actually. Got a link?

Imagine if earlier fascists were as corrupt with conflicts of interests. Maybe we could call via the Adolfone.
- Comment on Spicy food never affects my gut and everyone thinks it's really weird. How unusual is this and what could be happening to explain why spicy food doesn't affect me? 1 week ago:
I’ve started rolling my own inspired by (but nowhere close to) Tabasco. The main aim was to make it less acidic.

Thank you. I help where I can.
- Comment on Part 2 of car Raspberry pi 4 GPS project 1 week ago:
I was considering something similar for my Volvo 940 about around 2010. The idea was that I’d install a touch screen as an infotainment system where I could see stuff like OBD2 data and navigation.
While not having a functioning speedometer for a little bit (later fixed), I used my phone to see the GPS speed with the screen flipped so I could get the speed on the windshield like a HUD in some modern cars.
It annoys me that I never went through with it, because so much stuff of what I’d drawn up became standard for “fancy” cars later.

Looks like there are plenty of mountainous lakes, so that makes sense.

I use obscene amounts of Tabasco. The only thing it does to my gut is that my stomach can become a bit too acidic.
- Comment on How would I pop a bag of popcorn on the microwave? 1 week ago:
Open it, throw the contents into a kettle, and do it the old fashioned way.
Careful: burning your popcorn is easy, and it doesn’t taste very good.
I usually go at full blast until it sounds like I’m past the peak of pops-per-second, then I shake the kettle and give it five-ish more seconds before I empty it all into a bowl.

Some people don’t have access to decent tasting tap water
Most people IMHO.
- Comment on Researchers claim spoof-proof random number generator breakthrough 1 week ago:
Not that much of a fix. It’s mostly down to pedantry on my back half.
/dev/random is blocking unless sufficient entropy is available.
/dev/urandom is non-blocking and will supply output anyway.So for security-critical stuff that might run in a low entropy state (such as during the NG boot), you probably want to use /dev/random. But in 99% of the cases /dev/urandom is fine, and it won’t halt your program.

I doubt it. Maybe, but the chances of damaging it is much higher.
