I’m afraid this one is already taken, friend.

pics?

lol

Wow. Equally confident, equally confused.

The brain processes the information from the nerves.

How is it obvious?

Physical pain? Zero.

Did you think about this before you wrote it?

Motorcycle, actually.

So that’s who listens to this garbage…

I actually wasn’t being negative, but carry on.

I understand approximately half of what you wrote, but I see quite a few people upvoted you. Is this what dementia is like?

This is the worst second-hand embarrassment I’ve experienced in quite a while. I can’t imagine working with someone like this.

There is no sh shell.

Do you think the existence of the Linux kernel might’ve had an effect on how Hurd was prioritized? Also, FreeBSD wasn’t too far behind, chronologically.

I’m not saying Linux is unimportant (or even less important), but I think some folks here are pretty clueless about the significance of widespread DVCS adoption.

You’re thinking in terms of a single dev using revision control, but the person you responded to was referring to the higher level aspects of software development that git facilitates. In other words, you’ve completely missed the point.

As for the Linux kernel, if it hadn’t come along, we’d likely be living in FreeBSD-dominated world. Or, perhaps Hurd would’ve received more attention.

Torvalds didn’t create git because he was passionate about version control systems, he created it because the existing solutions were not adequate.

Git is a distributed version control system (DVCS) that facilitated a fundamental shift in how people collaborate on software projects in general. So, comparing it to SVN and downplaying the significance of Git suggests you’ve kind of missed the point.

Edit: with you on the other thing though - fuck Windows.

You probably need to learn a bit more about VCS fundamentals if you think Subversion would’ve been fine.

I don’t know why this specific thing is so common on Lemmy though, I don’t think it happened in reddit.

When you’re used to knowing a lot relative to the people around you, learning to listen sometimes becomes optional.

Definitely isn’t necessary, but if you search for ‘3.5" SAS lot’ on ebay you might find all the drives you’ll need to get to 50TB for the price of a couple new SATA drives.

Yeah, you don’t want a surveillance drive. They are optimized for continuous writes, not random IO.

It’s probably worth familiarizing yourself with the difference between CMR and SMR drives.

If you expect this to keep growing, it might make sense to switch to SAS now - then you can find some really cheap enterprise class drives on ebay that will perform a bit better in this type of configuration. You’d just need a cheap HBA (like a 9211-8i) and a couple breakout cables. You can use SATA drives with a SAS HBA, but not the other way around.
