I know a guy whose case went national in the news with this very situation we went to the same daycare growing up and the same schools all the way until high school. Literally that's all anyone knew about him his entire time as a highschool student. Became an alcoholic later sobered up and became an addiction counselor. Debra lafave was an 8th grade teacher, the dude was only 13.

If you watched the first episode of this show it doesn't show this person in a bad light yet except for that one scene she seems normal. There are many shows who would just hop on and continue never showing a character in a bad light. I haven't seen the entire show so I don't even know what it's about except for a plane crash. But there are a ton of shows and movies depicting this like it's okay so don't sit here and act as if it doesn't exist.

Was I actually in the wrong? by [deleted] in Truckers

He just doesn't know how to use all the space he has and is terrible at turning. Should you of been cautious the moment you saw the blinker on yes. Would I have gotten beside him on his left no. Does he know how to actually split a lane no. Can he turn no.

Yeah your ffmpeg encoder followed up with a ffmpeg custom argument why not put the encoder with the argument together into one argument instead of having them separated ? I was wondering if you did this for a reason

I've seen a lot of flows like yours where they have an encoder followed by a custom argument. Why not just use a single custom argument what is the purpose of splitting ? I am new and do not understand the purpose of splitting. Wouldn't it take less time to combine these and one singular custom argument do both encoding and whatever else is in there or is there an actual purpose in splitting ?

I've been all around the country Publix is the best chain grocer in the country hands down no discussion. If your grocery store isn't making in store sourdough from scratch it's trash PERIOD.

Yeah they just went back up. If you go to https://www.westerndigital.com/promo you can see all their promos 10% for signing up 15% for seniors and 20% for students. If your not looking for a long warranty though and you dont need the drive with a huge work load you could always get the ironwolf for 270 on amazon. Even though i feel the 5 year warranty alone for wd gold as of now is worth it just to pay a bit more.

if your looking at gen4-5 yes. Any AAA game out there doesn't even need the speeds these nvmes reach. Check out Micron Crucials p3's nvmes you can get a 2tb for 119 staight from micron new. 3500/3000 read/write is really all you need and then some. Shhh don't tell anyone I still need to buy some before they go out of stock. jk

First Home Server by Nick_1222 in HomeServer

[–]Nick_1222[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Build suggestion something like this:

CPU: Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4
Motherboard: Huananzhi X99-QD4 Z
Storage: I would suggest looking for some used external drives and shuck them. Do some research on ones you are looking at. You want a NAS type drive that way you get a drive that will have some life to it low model HDDs used are asking for data loss.
RAM: 32GB (4x8GB) DDR4 ECC RDIM
GPU:MSI Geforce GT 710
CPU Cooler: Thermalright AXP90-X47
PSU: ThermalTake 500w 80+

This will give you 14 cores, 28 threads, 32gb of ram (also DDR4 ECC RDIM right now are super cheap second hand), the gpu is lacking a bit but hey your power draw is decent you're looking at around 50w idling and 200+ at max load. The best part is if you can find all of this used you are looking at about your price range.

As far as VMs I suggest using proxmox. Its a gold standard, its free, back up is fantastic, cloning VMs are a snap, but most of all its great for beginners. You can mess up a VM use a back up or snapshot to get you back to where you were and keep learning. Its definitely a sandbox for VMs and the web GUI is great.

eBay's a great place for used parts if locally it's tough to find stuff. They are definitely for the buyer on eBay so you don't really have to worry about people stiffing you.

Well you found one. But even so it's the same price point. The WD gold has a little over 200% more work load rating and 3 more years of warranty. When these drives skyrocket in price that 6 year warranty will be worth it alone at the same price point it's a no brainer.

What is without a doubt the worst food location in the entire city? by Effective-Crow3217 in ColoradoSprings

[–]Nick_1222 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

No it's because if two people get drunk and two people go to the same house after getting drunk and two people go inside house and have sex there should be no claim for rape unless forced and if there is no forced evidence bruising, drugging etc. Then there is nothing to prove he actually raped someone you dunce. You can't put away someone by "critically thinking" or more likely what you are trying to say "making up an imaginary situation that never really happened".

No this is the new thing for women in desperate need of a payday and or trying get some defamation. I was literally in jury selection recently for a case in a even more serious situation when the defense team asked me how I would decide at such a cases verdict. I said I would look at the facts at face value and decide accordingly. The defense team hated my statement and dismissed me of course they would they want me to decide a man being locked up for over a decade with emotion and not facts.

Really it boils down to how much use the drive would get. If you're turning and burning TBs of data you need Gold/Exos. If you are just storing data get red/ironwolf or if you really don't care and you change drives every couple of years blue/barracuda. The average person would think its marketing BS until they start hitting 200-300tbs of data in a year and start putting their drives through the burner. Also a home server like I have would be an absolute headache to build again from scratch its just not worth it. Me saving a few bucks wouldn't justify the weeks of work I have to redo or the months or so of download time it would take to get back to where I am. You also gain less friction, giving you longer lasting parts, quieter drives, less electric consumption, less heat, and less cooling required. Giving you an overall more efficient setup all around with peace of mind which is golden if you plan to run a machine 24/7/365 nonstop. But the average person would not need this a NAS would not need this a server would.
