- Comment on What distances do soldiers stand apart at 14 hours ago:
Usually at arms length. Put your arms up horizontally with fist closed, and you should barely be able to skim the ones next to you or in front.
The only exceptions were some special drill formations ns which was almost shoulder to shoulder.

One of the first games that went through my CD burner on its way to the seven seas.
Excellent game with and awesome soundtrack.
- Comment on Do you read analog clocks to the exact minute? How do you do this quickly? 2 days ago:
One reason why I always preferred analog clocks is because they’re faster to parse. Thank you for teaching me about something even faster.

They can be. Some motherboards come with one built in. But in most cases it refers to its own PCIe card, such as one of the many models from LSI Megaraid.
The advantage of this is that it can have a small capacitor bank (or a proper battery) to provide emergency power so that if something stupid happens such as motherboard failure, the raid controller will use this power to cleanly write to the disks.

Ooh, I did this a while back, except it was Raid5 to Raid6. Turns out one of the servers in a cluster were, for some reason, set up with 11 disks in raid5 + hot spare, except for raid 6 on all raids on all servers. Took me embarrassingly long to realize why storage space was as expected despite one disk being reported as not in an array.

- Comment on How difficult would it be to live in a modern-day developed country without a smartphone? 1 week ago:
A friend of mine avoids smartphones as he is (rightfully) very concerned with his privacy when it comes to big tech. So he has a PC and a dumbphone.

On a different Lemmy board I usually serve users with a temporary ban for “Hit&Run”. While it’s not explicitly against the rules to delete one’s own posts, removing content once a few answers have been provided seems very selfish, it’s not fair to the ones who reply and want to read a full thread, and it’s especially infuriating to the ones who write a lengthy reply only to find out after the fact that nobody will read it. It goes against the spirit of the community in general and it’s really annoying at best.

Instructions unclear: Ran a marathon, got disqualified for defeating the other runners instead of running past them.

- Comment on what's the best material for wiping out a cast iron skillet? 2 weeks ago:
I’m convinced there’s no right answer to this. Whatever works for you. The internet will never agree no matter what you do.
Personally I put it on the stove just to heat it up slightly, and them I rinse it under hot water while scrubbing with a light plastic brush just to get and chunks and gunks out. Once done I put it on the stove to burn/polymerize any leftover grease and add to the seasoning.
- Comment on I have some very old CDs, mostly retro video games. Is there a way to pull the games and data off the CDs for preservation? 2 weeks ago:
That makes sense - I never looked into why bin/cue was sometimes used. Would that mean that bin/cue is better for multitrack and mixed mode CDs?
- Comment on I have some very old CDs, mostly retro video games. Is there a way to pull the games and data off the CDs for preservation? 2 weeks ago:
Ripping it to an ISO file is basically the “industry standard”. Something else I used to see when sailing the high seas back in the day is bin/cue pairs, but iso was by far the most prevalent. I have long since forgotten how this is done on windows, but on Linux it’s basically dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/home/studmuffin2000/somecd.iso

No. It looks too silly. Other than that, there’s no problem.
However, if your micronuker is interfering that much, you should get a new one.

- Comment on UK households could face VPN 'ban' after use skyrockets following Online Safety Bill 3 weeks ago:
Valid. There’s no practical way of implementing a blanket ban on VPN. Hell, I’ve set up a VPN tunnel to the UK that I use for work. I wish them the best of luck, while I grab my popcorn.
If a ban were to be implemented, there would be no way of enforcing it.
