  Ok, now this is just showing off. Patch cables all the exact required length and everything all nice and neat. I bet you check your backups regularly and do a monthly DR fail over test too.

  …Kidding aside, your setup looks really good.

  What about double barreled shotguns? Those are each going to require two fingers. I’m beginning to think the creators of this change.org petition haven’t really thought this through.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pretty sound reasoning here.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s called an elephant gun because it’s for shooting elephants. Not because it’s the size of an elephant. There is no way a horses hoof or an elephants trunk will fit in the barrel of a gun thats less than .50 cal.

  But you know what will? A finger. You’re just going to want to shove it in their really good because those cartridges pack a punch.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit’s getting more popular—and profitable⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Reddit was never “mainstream social media”. Annecdotally, I have heard more people referring to Reddit in casual conversation so maybe it is becoming more widely accepted.

  If that’s true, then I still have no regrets about leaving. If I wanted to look at a news feed full of hot garbage I would have stayed on Facebook.

  I hear a lot of devs that don’t seem to get this.

  “WhY wOuLd YoU uSe ExCeL? I pReFeR tO cOdE mY oWn SoLuTiOn.”

  No, Why would I spend a week coding something that I can create a pivot table and some charts for in an hour? Especially when if I code it myself, that means I now own and have to support my lovely new utility. Time is money and I’ve got way more important things to do than build custom reporting suites that no one except me is ever going to use.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Excel enters its 40th year⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol Google sheets has nowhere near the capabilities of Excel. They’re not even in the same class.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Excel enters its 40th year⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And still the spreadsheet gold standard. Microsoft gets plenty of shit wrong but Excel is one thing they got right.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨“Extreme” Broadcom-proposed price hike would up VMware costs 1,050%, AT&T says⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I think administrative overhead is the hidden cost that a lot of technology vendors fail to consider. Microsoft is especially guilty of this. Is a “good” product that requires an obscene amount of esoteric knowledge and experience to maintain really that good?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨“Extreme” Broadcom-proposed price hike would up VMware costs 1,050%, AT&T says⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Microsoft is sunsetting Hyper-V Server (Not Hyper-V itself) so now you have to run Hyper-V on a bloated Windows Server install. Too bad because Hyper-V is actually a decent hypervisor and Microsoft is shutting out a lot of their smaller customers who don’t have the money for tons of exhorbitant licensing.

  I even use Hyper-V for my self hosted setup but I’ll be forced to switch in a few years whenever my host server is ready for retirement.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Looking to move on from Unraid, need suggestions.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The benefit of splitting services between VM’s is the same as it always has been: I can break one service without breaking ALL of them. Containers are ab improvement over native installs but they do not solve this problem completely.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No further questions your honour⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m assuming this went down like the church scene from The Blues Brothers. Some lady goes out to the woods to get a little clarity where a bright light from heaven shines down on her and instead of James Brown, Bigfoot appears and says, “Have you seen the light!?”

  And she’s like, Yes! Yes! Jesus H Tapdancing Christ! I have seen the light!"

  And just like that, she’s off on a mission from God.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can I DIY water backwashing through my basement drain?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You have my sympathy on the basement flooding issues. Been there. Thankfully not sewage backup in my case.

  it’s definitely not an issue you want to let go for long. If there’s an obstruction, it will get worse quickly as more solids go down the drain. Easiest way is to just hire a plumber. Complexity and cost are going to depend heavily on the cause and location of the obstruction.

  If you want to try to DIY it, you could try to snake the drain but on a 3 or 4" line you’d need a good sized power auger to make any serious headway.

  If it were me, I would get a sewer inspection camera. Low end ones start at less than $150. This is really the only way you’re going to find out what the root issue (no pun intended) is outside of paying a plumber to come do the same thing. A large wet dry vac also comes in really handy in these situations.

  How old is your home and what’s the sewer line made of?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Foundation crack⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The big gap looks like the mortar has just deteriorated to the point that it’s fallen out. It’s not ideal but not necessarily an emergency yet either. Most likely the ground under the foundation has settled a bit. How urgent it is depends partly on whether the crack continues to expand. I would check it every week or two for a few months and see if it gets any wider. You can use a deck of of cards and keep track of how many you can squeeze into the crack. That will tell you if it’s expanding.

  I would also suggest making sure you don’t have rain water collecting anywhere next to the house. If you have downspouts, make they’re they’re diverted away from the house as much as possible.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If Jesus can turn water into wine, but wine is still mostly made of water, can Jesus apply his powers recursively and create more and more concentrated wine?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  “And on the third day, there was a wedding in Cana. Jesus mother was there. When the wine was drunk, Jesus mother said to him, ‘We’re out of wine.’ ‘Bruh… That’s a big yikes. But why do I care?’, replied Jesus.

  Jesus mother instructed the servants, ‘you just do whatever he tells you no matter how stupid it sounds.’ Jesus sighed and turned to the servants saying, ’ Okay. You see those jars? Nope. Not that one. The big ones. Yeah. Those big ones over there. Go fill them up with water. All the way up. Then take some of the water and give it to the host.”

  The servants were more than a little skeptical but shrugged and did as they were told. When the host of the wedding feast tasted the water, it had become wine. And the host exclaimed, “Damn! That is some good shit. Where did you get that from?” And the servants were amazed because they knew from where the wine came.

  And the servants implored Jesus, 'Do it again! No, wait. Can you make something stronger this time?"

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kaspersky removes itself and installs UltraAV without permission⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably because old habits die hard. Kaspersky used to have a pretty good reputation as far as AV software. In the past, I used TDSSKiller to resurrect many PC’s where other antivirus software failed.

  Unfortunately, the whole Russia being a malicious actor negates any reasons to continue using Kaspersky.
