I have pasted my question a day ago.... still I have no comment or answer from superusers... I am afraid from where I will get help?

Be patient! :) It can take a while for people to find your question

In the meantime, you should be doing your own research and continuing to try things

hackingNerd

@BenN :) you right. Well I am also trying by myself in parallel.

Bob

@hackingNerd So you're not running a VM at all?

Interesting.

How many external IPs did you say you had?

A: Expanding storage on a soft RAID10

Complete the following steps for each disk; replace /dev/sda1 with other disks as necessary. You must complete all of these steps for one disk before you proceed to the next disk. Mark the disk as failed so that MD stops using it: mdadm --fail /dev/md127 /dev/sda1 Remove the disk from the array...

Is this correct? I played with mdadm a while back and kinda know the steps but just want to make sure.

I want to make sure it's correct because of the potential for data loss if done incorrectly.

@bwDraco shrug It helped the OP, so clearly it works.

@JourneymanGeek That's basically DIY frosting... might as well buy pre-made? :P

Journeyman Geek

@Bob assuming you can get what you want frosted.

funny thing is my local daiso sells plastic lights that look like what he posted... sometimes.

Bob

@JourneymanGeek "...sometimes" should be appended to every "I found X at Daiso" post :P

Journeyman Geek

;p

@Bob not everyone is aware of the wonder and terror that is daiso ;p

bwDraco

00:43

Made a bit of a correction in the answer.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of what we call 99-cent stores here.

I care about the quality of what I buy.

Journeyman Geek

@bwDraco we're huge fans

@bwDraco the thing with daiso is most of the stuff we buy is pretty good for what we pay or its dodgy in all the right ways.

Bob

Price != quality

My $2.80 pair of Daiso kitchen scissors performs far better than the $5 pair of Coles (big supermarket chain) scissors.

Wtf is daiso?

Journeyman Geek

@Bob my dad tends to be pretty hard on kitchen knives

@cat A chain of stores with lots of cheap stuff, like what we call 99-cent stores here.

Oh hey my Finnair adverts are back

Journeyman Geek

Basically anything in the store's a fixed price ($2 here), and the have an electic assortment of stuff.

Bob

@bwDraco Have you ever really looked at one?

Journeyman Geek

@bwDraco half the fun is in finding stuff that's actually useful/decent amongst all the wierd crap.

bwDraco

I don't recall going to a Daiso here in the States. There aren't exactly a lot around here.

Journeyman Geek

00:49

(and the other half the fun's in the engrish instructions)

Bob

Daiso actually gets things manufactured specifically for them.

Everything there has their branding on their packaging.

(of course, most of it is probably just rebadged, but it's not quite bottom of the barrel)

Journeyman Geek

@Bob I suspect they have a fair economy of scale

bwDraco

There's one planned for New York City, but I don't quite see anything yet.

reddit.com/r/AsianBeauty/comments/4oadlt/daiso_is_coming_to_nyc

Bob

actually, their notebooks have really good paper in them too

great for fountain pens

bwDraco

Bob

00:51

@JourneymanGeek Definitely. Something about hundreds of stores worldwide.

And they actually care about their branding.

Journeyman Geek

@Bob remind me again, did you find daiso yourself, or was it my fault?

bwDraco

There's only about 50 Daiso stores in the United States, most of which are on the West Coast.

Most stuff is priced at $1.50.

Bob

Yes, it's fixed-price. Yes, the price is pretty cheap. No, most of their products don't just fall apart as soon as you take them out of the box.

Actually I haven't had anything Daiso fail on me yet

@JourneymanGeek that is a good question :P

I think it might've been indirectly your fault

Journeyman Geek

ah, ok ;p

Bob

since you got me into FPs and I think I wandered into Daiso the first time while looking for one

Journeyman Geek

00:53

ah, ok

Bob

Ah, no. @JourneymanGeek You directly suggested Daiso when I mentioned I was looking :P

@JourneymanGeek Yes, but what it is depends where you live

@cat it's become a bit of a running joke that I've been looking for the shio pan @JourneymanGeek mentioned, without any luck

Heck even the Atom probably has an iGPU that's twice as fast and uses half the power

The 910M still uses 8 times the power of the Atom CPU+GPU combined though

a core m should have a proper Skylake GPU

bwDraco

NVIDIA absolutely need to stop using GF119. Is this an issue of surplus?

Bob

probably

bwDraco

Where's GK209 or GM209?

Bob

cat

A 6700K gets about 200-240 GFLOPS, which is a little lower than a HD 4200

And a little more than a HD510

bwDraco

01:20

There's a GM107, but no GM207 revision. There's also no GM208, let alone a GM209.

Bob

@cat yup. still makes my new tablet nice and warm in the corner :P

cat

videocardbenchmark.net/…

Somehow Passmark's results say a 510 is much faster than a 515 :-/

@Bob Yeah, 4.5w without active cooling can still get pretty warm.

bwDraco

There's a GM108...

Bob

@cat I swear I can hear a fan in there

@Bob drones , armed drones :-) I was trying to figure out how i would protect my own solar as i travel though tornado alley. "replace the glass" ? seriously, an impact that breaks the glass would destroy the very thin glass cells , there might be a few left that would survive. I was thinking a canvas tarp might be just enough impact reduction when "tempered" glass wants one tiny sharp smack on it to dissolve into oblivion. "designed to withstand"

Journeyman Geek

@Psycogeek but you'd block out the sun. That's good for when its not in use

Psycogeek

tell that to the people who have had real hail.

@JourneymanGeek right, some kind of rush out in 60MPH winds and toss the protection on it, tie it down with grommets, and end up with a 10 foot kite.

I have seen hail break cars windshields, the one i was in was mostly verticle, again just rotating is not an option either. bad hail comes with 100+ mPH winds following tornadoes around. it is no longer effected by gravity :-) How are large hail balls formed, by combining other hail into them. this means that BIG hail usually has swirled around in the clouds and storm , completely defying gravity.

Journeyman Geek

@Bob hand the kids laser pointers. Put it on youtube? ;p

Psycogeek

So some bookworm calculating the velocity based on gravity, and saying "that'll do it" doesnt even understand the first things about hail :-)

Journeyman Geek

@Psycogeek if you're going to want to protect against impact, you'd want some space or padding between the thing you want to protect, and the thing that gets hit

Psycogeek

these awnings are usually a hearty canvas, with space it would go right through it. with it on top of the glass it would just slightly reduce the impact.

Journeyman Geek

padding?

'hard' covers?
