Just changed it to hunter3, thought it was time I should upgrade security

The best code its given me I’d been able to search for and find where it was taken. Hey it helped me discover some real human blogs with vastly more helpful information.

(If you’re curious, it was circa when there was that weird infight at openclosedAI with altman, I prompted to give code to find the rotational inertia per axis and to my surprise and suspicion the answer made too much sense. Backsearching I found where I believe it got this answer from)

I call it IBS Preparedness

Well SOMEBODY shouldn’t have put it there

Thats so fucking funny, this came up a few days ago for me after I came across this:

+1 for Proxmox, has been a fun experience as there are plenty of resources and helper scripts to get you off the ground, jellyfin was the first thing I migrated from my PC, hardware encoding may give you a bit of a tussle but nothing unsolveable. Also note Proxmox is Debian under the hood, so you may find it easy to work with. I looked into unraid, it seems great if all you’re doing for the most part is storage, if you want Linux containers and virtual machines, proxmox js your bet.

I got a small 4 bay 2U server from a friend on the cheap, 1000$ should get you relatively nice new or slightly older used hardware. Even just a PC with a nice amount of drive bays will get you started. And drives are cheap, a raid 1 setup was one of the things I did.

In the end I’ll likely get a separate NAS rack server just to segregate functions, but as of now I simply have a Proxmox LXC mounted to my NAS drives and runs samba to expose them.

Tailscale is a nice set and forget solution for VPN access, I ended up going the route of getting an SSL certified domain and beefing up my firewall a bit. The bit I’ve messed with it it certainly has a learning curve greater than openvpn, but is much more hardened and versatile.

As for pihole, I’ve found AdGuard Home to be just about a suitable replacement, and can be installed along openwrt, though I have a bit of an unconventional router with 512MB of RAM so YMMV

Antidepressants

Don’t forget that its much more effort than teaching a child, sometimes no matter your words, the machine can be stubborn. It is a very difficult and misunderstood profession, sometimes my head aches a little from typing the same thing over again, expecting a different result. But together we will hallucinate the future, engineering one word at a time.

We see you liked getting dicked down by your employer, and we also have a new compensation package for you

Well that means they havent shoved it down your throat… yet. Just waiting for copilot windows explorer AI to automatically post what porn you’re watching to LinkedIn for better networking

That means you’re a normal person who does not actively engage on LinkedIn, wear it as a badge of honor.

On the contrary, use that shortcut and see how long your brain can last scrolling through upper management feelsgood and ragebait post, it can be a fun drinking game

Oh dont even get me started on modded Minecraft, I’m really not sure what makes it worse for alt tabbing over just older versions, maybe its just selection bias, but it’s like one mod can decide that it no longer wants to go fullscreen, and I don’t think its fabric/forge

KSP was another one that was just kinda finicky, I think it got better with patches

Make sure to check LinkedIn daily using Ctrl+shift+alt+win+L for better job opportunities! Keep using chatGPT and you may just win an unpaid internship at microsoft!

You may find the need for 3 different aspect ratios, just to be sure you’re doing the whole user interface thing right. Judge if you like but here I still need to have multiple workspaces and stacked windows, so clearly the extra retail space works. Or its obnoxious and I’m merely coping.

Also fuck games that still dont work with alt tab in this day and age

I got a 1U 32GB and a 4 core Xeon for 20$, you just have to make at least 3 more posts

Work on that reading comprehension, it’ll do you well.

Well you offhandedly gave “elon bad” memes precedence over actual critiques being offered, nobody who actually cares about this moon thing gives a damn about elon memes, so I expect to discuss the merits of the mission plan off its merits alone.

Smartereveryday was largely on about culture at NASA from what I remember from that video. That and the lack of hypergolics.

It may be a long watch but please actually watch the whole thing, he’s very well spoken and ultimately optimistic (as am I) about going back. But I am certain he had more to mention that just hypergolics. I can list a few

• astronaut access to the surface
• stability on landing with a high COM
• number of refuels necessary given nominal boiloff
• lack of a mockup vehicle for astronaut training
• undemonstrated orbital refueling (no bleeding the header tank is not a fuel transfer as per flight 3)
• yes the hypergolics, you don’t want to be stuck on the moon.

If these are “intentionally obtuse” points, well then welcome to aerospace engineering, its called rocket science for a reason.

And Destins point about the culture? People aren’t speaking their critiques when they’re most necessary to hear, people are afraid to speak. How does that contribute to a program which may or may not have flaws (that could be remedied), when no flaws are at least pointed out? Well look at Boeing for one.

The fact you don’t know how risky Apollo was to the astronauts shows you don’t know much about this

I mentioned Apollo 1, right? Im pretty sure I mentioned Apollo one and how they perished on the pad and it nearly stopped the program. Now if you’re going to be intentially obtuse, then I bid you a good day.

Lost me at the second paragraph, Elon most certainly can be a complete moron while SpaceX remains a competent launch provider with, but to ignore his track record and business dealings in considering HLS would be a lapse in judgement.

Aside from the man, the plan of starship is vague at best, and given 2 billion in public funds is planned to be spent on starship this year alone, I would certainly like to know more details… as NASA does too:

20 launches, up from musks initial 8, will be needed to fuel the craft

Contracts have deadlines and astronauts need assurances

It’s really cringe

If NASA is to a point healthy critique is considered cringe, then I doubt we’ll be on the moon for long. Sure there’s some rashness, but in the publics eye, do you think Apollo could’ve succeeded if they had dismissed hardware failures as RUDs?

Apollo 1 nearly ended the program, yes it was the deaths of those astronauts that prompted that, but its necessary rigor that prevents another such accident. An inherent con of the trial-by-fire method SpaceX has had is the potential to miss something that wasn’t an immediate issue. This can be mitigated, but is a valid source of concern for the engineer.

I however am not nearly qualified to make a call. But I feel as though this video from the channel SmarterEverDay (whose family was involved in Apollo) sums up a set of valid concerns that I think anybody with interest in these this should at least hear.

I want us to go back to the moon just as the next person, but remember: Apollo cost some $200B in todays money, part of that cost was the extensive checks needed to avert tragedy, we must be sure we’re not cutting that its only a natural concern. And we can’t make heroes of men while we’re at it, nobody is infallible, if the proposal is solid it will be the one to take us regardless who’s running the show. Or if its not, we cannot afford to make mission proposals personal.
