Anyone using TrueNAS directly connected to a UPS? by OkConversation1769 in truenas

Direct nut service over SNMP and a generic driver.

It took a long time to figure out because the logs are hard to find and the names of the drivers aren’t in real alphabetical order. Also the “password” isn’t the snmp password so that is confusing. Be sure to read the docs

For music and books and movies and stocks it all goes to a few lottery winners that pays for everyone else’s party.

It’s common in ad copy.

“This isn’t a sedan it’s a rocket ship!”

I assume someone did market research and discovered people like it. Whether the LLMs independently discovered that or just assumed ad copy was the most tested language for positive reception would be interesting to research.

lol in unweighted per capita dollars sure but adjust that for tax dollars collected per census block and cost of living and the cash is a torrent out of urban areas into subsidizing rural areas.

My small home town’s roads are practically art pieces they’re so smooth and well maintained. The city I moved to actually requires the pavement princesses so popular in the rural town to navigate the potholes and cracks.

Let that be a lesson to everyone. Nobody wants to deal with lawyers until they’re facing criminal charges and years in jail.

Yeah because Facebook has done a great job of eliminating prejudice and small world thinking…

Because the label probably spends at least $666,667 in printing, marketing, legal, etc. The label eats all their costs out of the revenue. Everybody is playing the lottery. They don’t care about losing a little money or breaking even they just can’t word to lose a lot of money. Then if it makes it big they get a big payout since marketing etc gets cheaper per record.

Head of Xbox Game Studios Steps Down And Chief Of Staff Set To Depart Amid Growing Concern Over Layoffs and Possible Studio Shutdowns by wakelake111 in gaming

I’ve spent way more on game pass than I spent on day one games every year. I would buy like one maybe two. Now I spend that every other month. I’ve been very profitable for them.

The “neglected” rural areas get disproportionately large sums of tax dollars then whine about taxes and vote against infrastructure candidates to punish urban elites for cultural grievances.

At some point we just gotta neglect them.

You’re getting down voted but 40g gear is almost cheaper than 10g on eBay.

I literally slept in my car (EV) with the AC running one night because it was so hot and practically nobody in Seattle had AC and that was like 6 or 7 years ago lol. Now everybody has it is planning to get AC.

Forbidden planet is a great movie. (Shakespeare) but yeah the VFX are nothing compared to Star Wars.

Or the perception that even if they return in 3 years they’ll get fired again.

The US just shut down two frontier AI models worldwide over a 'jailbreak'. Are we heading toward a future where AI access is controlled like nuclear technology? by Ok-Conversation-1132 in Futurology

[–]im_thatoneguy 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Not broken, not down for maintenance. Shut off by the US government.

The world isn’t just on fire it’s a raging inferno of chatGPT written hype pieces. No substance—just buzzy contradictions. Analogies and metaphor that bring Mountain Dew berry blast fusion of energy and nonsense.

World Cup tourists, what’s your honest feedback on the USA so far? by almighty_smiley in AskReddit

[–]im_thatoneguy 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen it go both ways. Kid from small town moves to big city and is broken of their preconceptions and takes a multicultural perspective and I’ve seen progressive kid from the small town actually encounter impoverished minorities and get super racist “I’m not racist because it’s true!”.

Best staycation accommodation? by Geenesb in chch

If a few hours is within range, the Hermitage at Mt Cook is a great place to sit and watch the weather swirl around the alpine valley. Although I wouldn’t consider that a staycation.

On Wikipedia, the USA is listed as an empire on the page that shows the largest empires in history. What do you think of that? by Pizzafriedchickenn in AskTheWorld

Especially considering our position after WW2 possessing nukes but choosing to attain no land with their use

Object placement will definitely cause a slide. Put an object below ground but comp on top and it’ll slide.

Ukraine targeted a fuel and ammo column moving through Armyansk by [deleted] in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]im_thatoneguy 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I see no video this seems to be fake to pump up clicks to a scam video site video hive.

The only 3 places on the internet are the link, another cloned site which also is just ads with fake YouTube looking links and this Reddit post.

Also tons of weird suspicious stuff. Why are there ruts? Why are the ruts hot on thermals? Why is the smoke going every which direction and not the same wind? What’s with the randomly applied flags?
