Yes.
It eliminates risks.
For example I have a proper NAS, a server with one large drive, and 2 external drives.
Guess what I never have a problem with? The NAS or the internal drives. Occasionally one of the external drives will just disappear from the server, because they’re not really intended to be up 24/7. So I’ll have to power cycle it.
Also those external drives don’t have any active cooling - they weren’t designed for that use case. So I’ve found they tend to get warm if I’m copying anything to them, and now have an old case fan on them. Talk about janky.


Yawn.
Go back to whatever hole you crawled out of.
OK, you don’t like the US. That’s all you had to say.
And even THAT is tiresome. Get a new shtick.
Oh, yea, what country are you from? Yea, we don’t give a fuck about you.
And that’s the real issue right there - you’re like an angry ex-girlfriend.
Oh, yea, Celsius is as arbitrary as Fahrenheit - it’s based on the boiling point of water at sea level on the earth. There’s nothing universal about that.
The entire metric system is as human centric as anything else. Funny how some integral of universal constants were chosen to represent the exact same units that we already had.
You metric sycophants crack me up (and I use both metric and ACU every day).


Womp Womp.
What did they expect would happen?
I can only hope this ends up with the original simply being left to rot.


Pi is a good option because of it’s low power draw.
However I find used mini pc’s and Small Form Factor desktops to be a better value and their idle power is similar to the latest Pi (while costing about the same as a new Pi).
Except I had a very similar experience growing up, so, yea, realistic.
I didn’t remove the labels, but we definitely had “canned surprise” until the unlabelled cans were used up.
Besides, who cares how realistic it is? It’s a joke.


I replace crappy ones when I remove them.
I’ll tolerate Phillips, but slotted gets replaced with torx. Phillips get replaced if they get damaged.


Having worked with lots of dogs (including obedience trials) - the #1 indicator of dog behaviour is the dog’s human.
XMPP - it’s fully open, while (I think) Matrix is controlled by a single org


You’ve been corrected on this before: chav doesn’t mean poor.
So take your strawman elsewhere.
Chav - Etymology, Origin & Meaning https://www.etymonline.com/word/chav
Origin and history of chav chav(n.) “antisocial youth,” British slang, by 2004, apparently from earlier charver “loutish young person wearing designer-style sportswear,” Northern British slang (1997) of uncertain origin. Earlier it was a verb in homosexual slang for “have sex.” Perhaps ultimately from Romany (Gypsy).


I wouldn’t expect those to be upgrading to 11
Every desktop/laptop will upgrade to 11 - no business will accept the risk of maintaining an OS that’s out of support (with some exceptions). So you don’t have a choice.


I couldn’t have written it better.
The only disagreement I’d have is that Win2k was the major turning point when NT architecture hit mainstream. Suddenly we had NT core with a UI that users understood and dynamic events (PnP).
Though for us in IT, NT4 was the major turning point - a solid OS that you could actually use in business.
XP brought a lot more user functionality (plus better performance), and Windows 7 brought the current version of 64-bit architecture.
Your point about working in the enterprise nails it - you simply can’t pivot just because “this is a better way”. Does the current shovel still dig a ditch? Then replacing all the shovels with this fancy new one that weighs 6oz less isn’t a useful way to expend resources (time/money/management overhead/etc).


There’s no value in switching to ARM, basically.


Haha, that’s awesome
Lol.
Guess what “kid” is having for dinner for the next month?


Just go to a defunct mall


Clearly you haven’t seen many signatures.
Mine is a scrawl that no one could identify, and I learned cursive a long, long time ago.
I’ve recently taken to drawing figures whenever I have to electronically sign something.
“Debunked” hahahaha.
Get help dude, you’re obsessed with this idea.
You can’t prove something doesn’t exist. The mere fact you’re using this word means it does exist, and has been used to mean a slacker layabout for decades.
Seriously, go get help. Or start taking your Meds again.
