Amazon still doesn't appear to have their shit together after the holidays. Took them until late last night to ship out an order I'd made early Wednesday.
mini Maine Coon. All the energy of a 25lb cat in a 7lb frame. Hell on wheels.
not making friends with my co-workers right now either. Someone turned off a bunch of our noisier monitoring checks right before the weekend. I'm turning them back on now that they've all left for the weekend.
@Andrew more that it didn't even try to answer the question of what's the difference between PRNG and RNG. But yeah, the example was pretty atrocious too.
@MDMarra It's been horrible here. The sun came out and temperature got down to 26. Thought I was going to be blinded while walking out to my car and freeze to death.
What filesystems do handle millions of files well? It would be nice to have all my porn on one computer for, finally. Save me a pile of money on renting the datacenter that houses it all now.
saurok is on my 240GB SSD. srvmirrors is part of my old 1TB and is just Linux distro mirrors. I don't care about it. libvirt is two 3TB red drives mirrored.
> 1.13 Can I boot from ZFS? > Yes, numerous people have had success with this. However, because it still requires the latest versions of grub and is distribution specific we don't recommend it. Instead we suggest using ZFS as your root file system. There are excellent walk through available for both Ubuntu and Gentoo.
The zfsonlinux people don't seem to have a problem with it.
(Oh, and I'm not booting from ZFS; /boot is still an old 500MB ext4 partition.)

@HopelessN00b Yeah, it was some WE OFFER SOME SHITTY VIRTUAL BUZZWORD COMPLIANT SHIT YOUR MANAGER WILL GO APESHIT OVER BUT YOU KNOW IS TOTAL CRAP BUYNOW
Time for an in-chat Shopping Question. Anyone recommend a free or at least ridiculously-cheap Website monitoring service that can do REST GET notifications?
Seems like something you should be able to achieve with a bot posting a job to Mechanical Turk every 5 minutes (or whatever polling interval you like).
But spammers and crackers and such do a decent job getting content or cracking CAPTCHAs, etc, by posting HITS to get thousands of 3rd world respondents working for $0.01 (or less) per task.
@RyJones Please, go on. What makes a good bed? Is it just the mattress and/or box? Does the frame mean anything? I've tried laying on the gross floor models at the mattress store but that doesn't help with how it will work for >5 hours.
It would be nice if it was just a bit narrower and an actual platform bed like the one you showed (maybe with the drawers being in the front instead of on the sides)
I have to because of the way this bed is structured (the mattress would be down inside the frame without them). When I replace the bed I'm chucking the box springs.
I did look at it. We have a huge Ikea in Renton. I went with amazon because they delivered to the door. this was a mistake
@voretaq7 I like having the mattress extend over the edge. Imagine sitting with knees on the edge, swinging legs down. I don't like my heels hitting the bed.
it isn't a deal breaker, though, I just don't like it as well as I might
My mattress is about 6 years old now and getting on to the point where I'm thinking I'd rather replace it. It was never really super comfortable (it was nice, but after like a year the pillow-top started wearing in and you can't flip them)
for $400 I can't go wrong with a 25 year materials warranty
@JourneymanGeek Rotate yes, flip no.
my mattress is unfinished on the bottom, it's just a flat surface for the springs to attach to & some covering fabric, you couldn't sleep on it if I flipped it over
We did that Orthopedic Memory Foam mattress, it is really nice, but after 4 years of us sleeping on it, it doesn't return 100% to it's original shape. It doesn't sag like a regular mattress, but it's not perfect either.
The local hospital spend a ton on the sleep center.. Flat screens and DirecTV... Was nice. Finding out you have Sleep Apnea, not so much. But the bed was really amazing.
@MikeAWood Buy an aerobed and inflate it to taste - same deal :P
I've thought about doing that too - picking up two queen-sized AeroBeds (one to keep in the closet as a spare for when the one I'm using breaks) & not have to worry about springs and shit
@voretaq7..... that's the equivalent of say a canoe and a cruise ship. They are both boats right? Aerobed feels like an air mattress and doesn't have that same support in the center of your back. A bit like sleeping in a hammock. Sleep Number felt like a mattress where you could adjust how hard it was..
aerobed for me was not a pleasant experience. it was better than sleeping on the couch, but those days for me are long gone..
@RyJones, I had to go back a second time because the tech forgot to put me on therapy half way through the night. That kinda sucked... But they didn't drug me at all and I tend to be a night owl. That going to bed at 1030pm stuff was rough.
@voretaq7, I spent two nights on them and it was better than our memory foam matress at home. My only night on an aerobed was miserable probably because I was used to a Cal King and we aren't used to sharing such a small bed. So every time the other moved, we both went for a ride. IN the case of the Sleep Number, the sides aren't pneumatically connected, so if you move, they don't get bounced around.
@RyJones yeah, WTF dude, first you scrub the crap out of 40 points on my head then you send me home with my hair full of super sticky goop that requires Lava soap to remove...

How many people deploy iSCSI SAN in server production environment?
