Old school 4chan

We did it 1,500 miles across multiple states. Also when we ordered new servers we ordered fully built and cabled racks, shipped from HP in Juarez to our doors in giant crates, 52U high, fully cabled. Unpack, plug in power and uplinks and the entire rack was ready to go. We were getting like 2-3 of those a week.

Funny thing is, I’ve relocated DCs too and we did the opposite. We had rolling racks and we wrapped the entire rack with everything still in it and did a padded wrap with anti-tip indicators.

The biggest thing to watch out for was we used a temperature controlled truck to ensure there wasn’t a swing in humidity or temps to cause condensation and then let the racks sit in the new locations for 24 hours before power on

Moving 85 racks with literally hundreds of disks and we only lost 4 disks over the next 6 months which was in line with our normal failure rate. No need to tear down and re-rack.

Gives new meaning to ignorance is bliss…

But seriously, take solace in the fact that you can never know everything about something. Physics, math, random subjects, you name it. The world and knowledge forever increase. So there is no way in your lifetime you’ll ever fill a chamber. Thinking you can is limiting hubris on your end. The more you learn, the more you’ll realize there’s so much you don’t know.

Interestingly my iPhone will autocorrect ducking to fucking for me. Guess I use it enough?

We thank you for your sacrifice

Huh. I actually don’t remember that much fanservice. I guess I blocked that part out.

It’s hard to write good sex into something and not have it detract from the plot. Most movies are plot driven and the casual sexual angle doesn’t normally contribute to advancing the plot (not saying it isn’t possible). It could be used in the worlds-building phase but then would also be a one and done thing.

Like John Wick for the last one?

Won’t spoil it, but keep watching, your initial assessment is a bit off there.

It’s one of my favorite. People call it a JSDF recruitment video, but it’s just a good old fashioned curb stomping.

In Gate there is very little to no magic. It’s mainly a Roman-era army, with some wyverns and other creatures thrown in. The military even comments how hard the wyvern scales are and that it shrugged off .50-cal bullets. But it couldn’t survive a shit load of C4.

There are also instances that most likely exist just to suck up data for AI/LLM training. People were up in arms about it happening on Reddit and trying to torch their comments when here they’re giving it away for free and there are less bots because it’s a newer platform.

Serious question: how does war thunder end up with the leaks they do all the time?

That’s a non-sequeter. You started by saying that internet on cars were bad and then switched to “you should be using bikes”

The number of F-bombs in Final Fantasy 16 is quite impressive.

I think I mentioned it in another post but Schwaticars are a bit different. Though I’d assume they’d have to have some basic functionality in the event of an outage. “Always on” hasn’t come to cars… yet

Again though, they are all quality of life things. You don’t have to use it on most cars. Don’t want it, don’t pay for it and don’t use it. So just like giving people the choice of AA/CP, what’s wrong with giving them the choice of using those features?

I mean, what’s the alternative? It’s not like it has to have internet. Anything internet connected is mainly quality of life:

• Traffic
• Remote (app) features
• Music

Except maybe Teslas, damned if I know what they do. But they’re nice to have things that generally require realtime updates but the car functions just fine as a car without it.

Something else that people don’t think about besides the backend server is the connectivity. A lot of these cars use LTE with eSIMs that can’t be replaced, and getting an internet package for it will be next to impossible since Tesla gets them at bulk rates. Once upon a time cars did allow “bring your own SIM cards” but not anymore. Also as cars get older the cell networks get shut down. Some companies did offer upgrades but that was few and far between. Most just said “sorry, you’re SOL”.

So even if you could hack your car, your car won’t have any way of talking to a custom endpoint.
