shrug If it's good on HN, it might as well go on Reddit too. Let's see what happens.

@LucasKauffman At first it was laziness, but then I kinda grew attached to the auto-generated image.

@ScottPack I should do it more often. It actually doubles the rep income ! (Except for the rep cap, of course.)

@ThomasPornin Those two post of yours can actually be split into 4 post tbh.

Holy... that SSL question has 14k views now.

Congrats on the gold badge @Polynomial

@TerryChia When the computer goes, "tl;dr"...

@JeffFerland td;dr?

yawn good morning

heh. i'm about to head to bed.

I still haven't left it :)

SLA + support duty + party the night before. Set alarm in one hour increments and keep checking if anybody actually needs me.

Sadly I have just been working... but delivered my report just now!

yay

@RoryAlsop yay!

Yay for Yaying !

Braaaaiiins

So @ThomasPornin - it looks like QoTW next week may be the SSL question. Prepared for yet more reddit/slashdot-ing......

:-)

Slashdotting? Thomas is going to be bought by Dice?

I've been laundering like it's going out of style.

I am calling it the Laundpocalypse.

@RoryAlsop I have full confidence that I can handle these extra upvotes. Bring it on !

@Thomas - well played:)

@Jeff - Dice?

Oh, and @Jeff- thanks for migrating that q. I meant to when I got back to a proper computer but forgot.

pffff

I just ruined a brand new SSD

I told you a Gutmann wipe is unnecessary.

I phisically ruined it

the plastic where the power and sata plugs adhere to just broke off

If you were an American you would sue for a few million worth of emotional distress.

meh it's my own fault

I need to deal with it

I wonder if I can get the plastic of another disk

and replace it

I'm having trouble visualizing this as show stopping.

Pics nor I don't care if it happened.

@ScottPack twitter

You could have imgured it. Silly boy.

Oh, no biggie. It'll still work.

That housing was just the friction support for holding the cables.in.

yeaa

It'll probably be just fine. A touch of tape if you're worried.

it sparked

gonna play it safe atm

just buy a new one

160 euro down the drain

Sparks are usually indication of something not quite right.

noted

@Thomas - hadn't spotted that. Wonder what that will do to it.

@RoryAlsop I hadn't noted either. Just used Google "dice slashdot".

Anyway, I do not follow slashdot. I am mildly surprised that some people consider that there is money to extract from it.

Especially considering the slashdit users I know are the ultimate in refuse to pay and block all the ads kind of guys.
