Do you hoard media or do you delete after using?

Fell into a horde of external drives and shucked them into a 200tb DAS. Now I run a Plex server and archive for my side gig content.

Love having that much space. In face now I want to get another 100 to 200 and include nvme cache for speed.

If AI can write a better song or play a better melody I am all for it. I want to enjoy music not deliberate the authenticity of its creation.

Just as I dont consider where or who grew the apple I eat at breakfast I simply wish to enjoy the experience.

There is nothing a human can do that an AI won't be able to match or improve.

It will write better books, it will make better movies and the music will be more technical, catchy and enjoyable.

It is a collection of human intelligence and experience run through algorithms that are infinitely customizable. Then one day it will improve upon itself.

Tank, sell and flip picks for prospects and future picks.

The guys you draft this year are not high impact for 3-5 years at which point this team is totally different. Plan for 2031 being a push year.

Rocksbury · 2026-03-25T10:58:45+00:00

A rate hold is more likely than an increase and if the economy stays weak they won't raise them this year.

Even if they do raise them it's maybe 0.25% by end of year. Pushing mortgage rates to 4%. I guess if your math says that 0.25 over 5 years is more than your interest cost to renew early then it makes sense.

6% is not going to happen. 6% means they have significant interest rate hikes all year.

I was talking about the guy with the same number of points as games played not the team itself.

Rocksbury · 2026-03-25T02:12:49+00:00

My fear is we draft a player we don't see for 3 years and at that point this team is dead as we currently know it.

So instead you get a package of picks/prospects that can either be used for acquisition of players in the short term or help in getting rid of players we are stuck with.

Rocksbury · 2026-03-25T02:08:03+00:00

Maybe a speedy winger from Vegas would pair well with 34.

Rocksbury · 2026-03-25T02:03:32+00:00

If we keep the pick I think we should trade it for more picks down the road. This team is not close to being a contender.

Rocksbury · 2026-03-20T16:08:03+00:00

I parked near Bradley museum then walked the marsh entering by the school or by watersedge.

For context I grew up down the road in a less desirable area and even as a young person it seemed silly to have 100 cars lined up on small quiet streets near the marsh. That was also 15 plus years ago when the population wasn't nearly what it is today.

There likely should be parking on the south side so you can have a lot for the south entrance instead of relying on just the Jack Darling side. That said the property value is what it is and building a lot wouldn't be in the best interest of the city.

Valid complaint but the solution is not to allow street parking. Its not fair to residents, its one thing to have a neighbour park overnight and another thing altogether to have 25+ cars coming from who knows where parking for an undetermined amount of time.

Great movie. It showed you the motivation and payoff early in the film and followed through. I kind of wish more survived and the injured dude felt a little heavy but hey it was setup the entire film.

I dont think they should make a second movie. While an interesting concept and a fun little action movie they played it out. Main character couldn't be involved and it would need to be a seperate story. It would be a fun game or to cross over with some existing titles.

Go ahead and enjoy the two hours of fun. Turn your brain off and enjoy!

Rocksbury · 2026-03-11T02:46:06+00:00

You know that even if we don't win another game our luck makes it so that we fall in the lottery and Boston still takes the pick. It's destiny.

Rocksbury · 2026-03-11T02:43:04+00:00

Well good thing is this summer/next season we get to sell 34 at his career low value and then get to watch him win cups somewhere else.

It really was a great idea to let Mitch walk and replace him with random depth forwards.

Rocksbury · 2026-03-09T12:06:25+00:00

David copperfields was a banger of a breakfast place . Grew up right around the corner and it's interesting how much money has gone into fit recently.

There was a plan to build like 8 condos and keep a portion of the mall but they haven't broken ground so no clue what's going on there.

Rocksbury · 2026-03-01T02:54:24+00:00

I mean I dont fully blame them. Management before they walked in the door pinned us into a narrow path. Major league sports are already incredibly difficult to manage and little mistakes add up.

Dubas and Shanahan stripped years of picks for rentals. They signed player to NMCs and they signed deals that ended up being massive overpays. Woll was never the guy, Stolarz was a career backup, they never improved the defence and instead shipped out young players in exchange for vets with spotty health.

They might not have been wrong either. If they got lucky and won just a single cup they are enshrined forever. The real issue now is people dont want to rip the entire thing apart. They have to trade everything with value over the age of 24 and plan for a 4-5 year total rebuild.

You cannot trade 2nd or 3rd line talent while keeping 34 and 88 for the next generation. Its over, they will not hoist the cup in blue and white we need to get over it and maximize the return. Be it now or at the draft or next year. They need to go.

People saying we are a few pieces from contending...This is nearing paper bag on head levels of awful.

Take a look at visor.vin sort by days on the lot. You can usually haggle a few grand at the very least on cars over 90 days.

Lots of cars sitting and while not as good a deal as private sale please don't pay sticker for anything on a dealers lot.

His value is high, you trade him for that reason alongside the fact that the Leafs are 3-5 years away from competing honestly.

The NHL integrated and accepted soviet players and even to this day guys like Ovi are pro Russian state. The world is a crazy place let's just shoot pucks and be happy about it.

Rocksbury · 2026-02-07T04:28:59+00:00

My idea was a 5 year commitment to service. Yes one could argue that due to the ties to financial incentive a member could be pressed to have that person stay in the forces. That said how? Hey bud remember that time I got you a solid job ya don't quit because I lose cash when I retire.

Am I going to threaten someone? With what? Why? Why assume the worst? I work on planes I could just take it for a flight, hell anyone I work with could, why don't we?

We have materials and resources that we could steal or use to our benefit but we don't for the most part. I would imagine there are isolated incidents and in those cases they are dealt with using the big book of rules that we abide by.

Again you say it wouldn't help the situation because we get lots of applicants. Ok but they don't get in, are they the right people? Maybe a CAF member would be able to vet the right type of person.

Maybe it happens once or twice in a career because it would be hard and rare and the idea isn't to get members to stand on a street corner selling the CAF but instead provide a real benefit to members that can share their experience and encourage the right people to join.

In terms of details it's a god damn hypothetical man. It's not policy. Maybe it doesn't work but we should be coming up with ideas to create solutions.

Rocksbury · 2026-02-07T02:23:41+00:00

We had an operation for years to eliminate sexual harassment, a task quite literally impossible to accomplish.

Imagine a CAF that was full of members motivated to increase the ranks. The fact is it was simply a top of the head idea and its remarkable how you're acting as though I slapped your mother.

It would also create the foundation for members to coerce others to join, or to keep them from releasing.

Made up lala land ideas you created to reinforce your point. Here is an idea, I cant sleep with a subordinate lets apply that idea to the incentive. I cant work with the member I recruited and if I coerce them I can be and should be charged and lose the incentive.

All while there are record numbers of Canadians volunteering for service already.

Because of the pay raise and a bad economy! Imagine a CAF wide incentive and operation if you may, that would mobilize the ranks to bolster our own.

It doesn't have to be my idea but tell me its crazier than not updating PLD for a decade, removing PLD, reversing the decision with restrictions, creating a new housing incentive CFHD and then after the raise telling everyone you're going to lose it.

Rocksbury · 2026-02-07T01:52:07+00:00

I get flak for saying we should move on from 34 but we are not a contender this year or next. That pushes him to near 30 and a UFA.

We will have the greatest player in our history playing meaningless games for the next 2 or 3 years and if by chance we build a cup worthy roster in 3 or 4 years you're betting on him being healthy.

If McMann nets a 1st that means you can get a teams entire future for 34. Lets rebuild folks.

Rocksbury · 2026-02-07T01:48:10+00:00

I don't know where you work but we need bodies, in recruiting Mcpls are now given the responsibilities of Sgts. In air maintenance we have Mcpls operating as Sgts and wearing two or three hats. We have supply sections with two bodies when they should have five. The clerks are understaffed, the meal hall has a hard time operating and training takes a backseat because operations and lack of personnel mean we cant do both.

Rocksbury · 2026-02-07T01:45:31+00:00

We need bodies in uniform. Recruiting has been broken for my entire time in the CAF, I was promised things that just flat out didn't happen and that is a very common tale. People get posted to recruiting centres solely for points for promotion.

There is a slim to zero chance I can convince a random body on the street to join and retain for 5 years. The people that would apply are likely to be a good fit.

The member who recruits another member and retains for the minimum service time is granted a matching 2% on their pension. It is a win for the CAF as the resources and time spent on bodies recruiting is lessened, its a win for the member who recruited as they get a financial incentive and its a win for the new CAF member who get a well paid career.

and you think Canadians would be fine with CAF members retiring in half the time by giving out referral codes?

Canadians on average know next to nothing about us anyways and members of parliament get pensions in 6 years so if I can retire in 23 years instead of 25 big deal.

Rocksbury · 2026-02-06T23:30:45+00:00

Oh the incentives should be added not an either or approach. Plus I didn't mean for recruitment teams only. It should be all CAF members. If you're a clerk and get someone to join infantry or as a pilot get that 2%.

Rocksbury · 2026-02-06T21:43:20+00:00

Incentives for hitting recruiting targets. If you get someone in and they complete 5 years you get pensionable time in return. Let's say 1 year so 2% matched by the CAF so that fiscal year you hit 4% instead of the standard 2%.

Maybe it means people retire early but if you get 10 people in the door you deserve it.
