@aking1012 but you need to have my app-specific password, and in order to generate that you need my two factor keys, and good luck getting those.

Great news! I took out a seemingly-good disk out of my RAID array... and it booted in a degraded fashion!

good for you

ObsessiveFOSS

I only need to replace one disk... Apparently, the drive's firmware was intermittently giving 2TiB instead of 1TB, which sent the entire array into disarray. (No pun intended).

Anti de Sitter space

In mathematics and physics, n-dimensional anti de Sitter space, sometimes written AdS_n, is a maximally symmetric Lorentzian manifold with constant negative scalar curvature. It is the Lorentzian analogue of n-dimensional hyperbolic space, just as Minkowski space and de Sitter space are the analogues of Euclidean and elliptical spaces respectively. It is best known for its role in the AdS/CFT correspondence. In the language of general relativity, anti de Sitter space is a maximally symmetric, vacuum solution of Einstein's field equation with a negative (attractive) cosmological constant ...
