It’s called shucking and it happens a lot especially in the home server home lab community.

I want like a USB c powered whole mouth toothbrush that looks like two u-shaped chainsaws full of tooth bristles that just wiggle back and forth very quickly and spray toothpaste and mouthwash as they go.

Where is that innovation?

One thing to note, if you find flossing very difficult, like you have to use a lot of force to put the floss in between your teeth to floss, your teeth may have spacing issues and you might need braces.

I know this because as an adult I got braces and then all of a sudden I found it incredibly easy to floss. It’s like 10 seconds and my breath smells better and my gums are healthier because it is easy and convenient to floss now.

My grandma told me how she used to cut branches off of trees and chew on them to turn them into bristles and then scrub her teeth with the bristles.

I have no fucking clue how to do that and I don’t think anyone will ever hold it against me.

At $0.13/kwh 100 watts 24/7/365 will cost you $113.88 a year, or roughly $10 a month. Little things add up.

Mine is roughly 300 watts, much of which is from using an old computer as a NAS separate from my server server.

However, I put the whole thing in the basement next to my heat pump water heater which sucks the heat out of the air and puts it into my water, so I am ameliorating the expense by at least recapturing some of the *waste heat.

Since we are talking about cheap ssds, what do you guys think of netac?

Half elf.

Actual elf would be too sad, since they’re going to live for several thousand years and I would only be a blink in their existence, but a half elf, barring any kind of gigantic world upset would get to live until our grandkids grandkids grew up and they’re continued presence in the world would ensure that the my presence in the world did not fade so quickly.

This is completely and totally factually incorrect.

People break laws all of the time and get away with it. Driving one mile an hour over the speed limit is breaking the law.

Just because no pencil dick officer would write you a ticket for one mile an hour over the speed limit doesn’t mean that you were not in fact breaking the law, just that you are not going to get punished for the law that you broke.

A friend of mine got roped into a game show when he was in Japan and ended up winning ~ $50,000 USD after taxes.

I think it was one of those shows where you had to contort your body into particular shapes to fit through a sliding wall.

Anyway, he bought a truck and paid off some of his family’s bills and now he’s running for some sort of city council position, but he’s kind of a dick so I wouldn’t vote for him.

And don’t forget how they beat that one police officer to death with a flagpole.

Apparently it’s compared to the all powerful God brain in orbit around Saturn.

Proof?

I read 15 different sites about DNS and not a one of them claimed anything like this. They universally all stated that your network attached devices would use the 1st one unless it didn’t respond and only use the 2nd one if the 1st one did not.

So once again, I ask “Can you send me some more information on this” and not just claim it without any backup information?

I apologize if I am coming off rude, just my BS meter is getting close to the red zone and I would really appreciate some reliable evidence.

Yeah, looks like you don’t know what you’re talking about.

The second ipv4 DNS address is for redundancy and every network connected system will use the first one as long as it responds.

It’s perfectly fine to have a single pihole and use something like quad9 as a failover in the unlikely event that your pihole goes down unexpectedly.

Can you send me some more information on this because this is the first I’ve ever heard that it would not automatically pick the fastest closest and most responsive DNS system available.

No remote DNS server will ever be as fast as one that is local

If you’re router has a failover DNS option, usually listed as DNS 2, I would set something like quad 9 as your backup DNS. Address is 9.9.9.9.

If you don’t want to do that, then having a second instance of pihole running as the secondary DNS is pretty much your only good option

Watership down is PTSD camouflaged as children’s media.

I have 4 home servers. 1 running pfsense, 1 running truenas, 1 running proxmox, and 1 is a cloud key gen2 for unifi that I got for free

To a certain point I agree with you, mild psychedelics have been used for millennia to help people uncover their own issues and work through them.

The other side of that is that it is not a cure-all, and most of the people that habitually use psychedelics tend to check out from reality.

So, even if they can be used medicinally and be helpful, they are a double-edged sword in that just because you’ve seen through some of your own assumptions doesn’t necessarily mean you’ve pierced the veil of the greater illusion of Maya.

The other thing is it’s not exactly like the matrix is made to be broken. People have been talking about the concept of Maya, that the world as presented to us is nothing but an illusion meant to keep us trapped, for thousands of years.

They claim that the enlightened people the bodhisattvas the jesus’s and Muhammad’s have broken through the illusion and stayed back to help guide us along the way.

Which is all well and good but that does not mean that breaking the illusion is easy. It doesn’t even mean necessarily that it is possible because first you have to prove that an illusion exists and then you have to prove that there is a way to break it, and most people, I believe, go mad along the way.

I said all of that to say, if you find a way to break out of the matrix please for the love of God show me the way.
