Quick way to tell: when it was functioning, did it appear as a 6, or a 12 TB drive? If it appeared as 12, that means you were using RAID 0.

Is it RAID0, or RAID1? If it’s the former, you’re fucked. No problem if RAID1.

I love that they added a separate line item for number of submarines killed. LOL.

I love this guy’s channel. Two of my other favorite things he’s done are: Uppest Case / Lowest Case, and that time he Reverse Emulated a NES.

… Ok, fair. 11,000 years was the wrong cut-off date. 12 - 13,000 years would have illustrated my point better.

Not even anywhere near that long. There have been humans for probably more than 200,000 years. Probably more. It gets confusing when you go back that far. But our written history only accounts for maybe 10,000 of those years. So 5% of total human history, if we take the minimum estimate of what it takes for us to be human. We have no evidence to support the fact that human advancement even lasts as long as written history. I mean, shit… the Romans had central heating and cement, and then they died out and we forgot how to do those things for 1,000 years. Our knowledge, and the acquisition of same is not exactly linear. Lots of fits and starts over the course of the various human civilizations that have occurred.

What happened 11,000 years ago? I mean, we’ve got some pottery fragments. Other than that, ???

Depends on your definition of “long-term”. The biggest accomplishments of Man have been acknowledged for maybe 10,000 years at the very extreme limits. 10,000 years is not even a drop in the bucket of geological or celestial time. So it very much depends on your perspective.

Incredible.

'Cause I’m drunk on a Thursday (Friday very early in the morning), and I’ve lost control of my life.

Shit - I love “Commandos”. Such a rad game.

I’d watch that tape.

See - shit like this is why I don’t really get my hopes up for the UAP hearings. Trump randomly throws out nuclear secrets just to impress people, because he’s a dumb piece of shit. Does anybody really think that idiot could keep his trap shut about proof of alien life?

MLA format would be something like this:

Maneuver, The Picard. The Delusion. Picard, 2023.

Then, in your paper, to reference it, just write “(Maneuver 2023)”.

… Or you could just read a history book that wasn’t written by a Mao fanboi.

First time on the internet?

It’s kind of shocking to see a politician standing by their principles, and stepping away from a position of power when their priciples clash with the stance of the organization they were a part of. Good for him.

I love this book! I first read it, I don’t know, maybe 20 years ago, back when Pargrin (he went by David Wong then) posted one chapter of it at a time on his website. A few years after he got it published, Don Coscarelli (director; does mostly indie movies including the “Phantasm” series) read the book, flipped out about it, and decided to buy the rights to the story and make it into a movie. It’s a pretty great adaptation, too! I’d rate it as mostly faithful to the source material. It’s got Paul Giamatti, Clancy Brown, and Doug Jones in it.

Anyway, if you like JDATE, you should check out Coscarelli’s movie of the same name. And also read the rest of the books in the series (book 4 was published about a year ago). And if you like the movie, you should also check out another Coscarelli classic, “Bubba Ho-Tep”, starring Bruce Campbell as Elvis.

Hey - I read through some of your post history to get the back story. I know we’re strangers, but I just wanted to say that I’m proud of you, and I’m happy that you’re seeing positive progress on your journey, even if it’s just a “simple win”. It’s rough not being able to count on your parents to have your back. I hope you have someone else in your life to at least partially fill that hole, but if not… just keep posting, and keep going. Strangers on the internet being proud of you and happy for you is a poor substitute for parental affection, but hopefully it’s at least something. You got this. <3

I mean, that’s just realpolitik. It’s more advantageous for Ukraine to have Russian nazis attacking Russia than it is to denouce them and deprive them of an operating base. Ultimately, the Russian Volunteer Corps’ interests are aligned with Ukraine’s interests in that they both want to depose Putin. As odious as it is, it’s the way global politics are done.
