  • I spent 20 years setting up and maintaining Microsoft software and systems, and a coworker convinced me to try a Mac to test replacing our executive laptops. I was quickly sold, and haven’t looked back. I avoid windows like the plague now and everyone except my gamer son is living the sweet Mac life. Simple, performant, effective.

  • I’m old and I have a DVD of it, but I don’t have anything to watch it on! I need to spend $10 on a usb dvd reader.

    Homeowners Block My Local Passenger Rail
  • Does the mayor own a car dealership? For us, it is the county judge and so we have no public transit. Why would people buy from his Lexus dealership if the bus could get them where they needed to go? It’s insanity.

    Self-hosted diary
  • I went with bookstack. Simple to use and does exactly what OP is asking. Tailscale to connect so it isn’t public at all. Works great for me.

    A Long Time Ago, 47 years today, Star Wars was released. When/where did you first see it?
  • I saw it during the original release, at the drive-in as part of a double feature with “The three musketeers”, which was what my parents went to see. Star Wars played first and started before sunset (the joys of far northern drive-ins) so it was washed out.

    The Sega Dreamcast
  • I think this is it. Within weeks I had downloaded every game from usenet and the only money Sega made from me was buying samba de amigo to get the maraca controllers.

    It was a mistake too - so many games to play that I never committed to anything and got bored and stopped playing anything.

    Tesla Cybertruck No Match For Car Wash
  • Car wash mode shuts off the automatic braking, folds in the mirrors, closes the windows, and puts it in neutral. It isn’t to protect the steel or anything silly like that.

    Need Server Recommendations
  • The chance of a rebuild taking longer than a failure occurring is non zero. RAID 1 is less protection that raid 50 or raid 60, plus depending on how many disks you have you will save space and get better performance.

    But you need a good controller.

    Wake up sweetie, the next stage of work has dropped.
  • Good luck, but when you are turned down you should recognize the red flag and start looking for your new, better job, leveraging your new title to get paid what it is worth.
