5G […] built on top of 4G

So that’s how the 9G technology works!

(GTA5 reference)

Must have lowercase, uppercase, numbers, symbols, minimum of 5 chars, max of 8. No dictionary words, no reusing characters (one char instance only), no numbers in order (123), no letters in order (abc nor qwe), nor in descending order (987, mnb). Caps lock is a unique character that must be used. Password expiration every 28 days. Cannot reuse old passwords, remembers last 10 passwords. Cannot add a number or letter at the end that causes an ascending or descending pattern. Password field cannot be pasted into.

Can I get a link to that? Assuming it was recent enough to not be too much of a bother…

(I’m disabled myself and I’d love the opportunity to tear them apart)

Imagine wanting to exist without automatic persecution and being told you are “extremely left”

Lmfao eat shit bitch ♥️

We got a tictactoeologist over here

“why do I have all these parts left over?”

I’m poor af but I’m fine with a $0.02 tax to maintain an infrastructure so uh… I think you got your teams mixed up there

[citation needed]

“don’t care”

still comes back to argue

hmmmmmmm

“obviously fake ai sludge”

I know it’s a sub-brand, but as I don’t own any products by them…

It’s like “do you use windows at work? lol you are an Xbox lover” like ???

One-time, where I risk losing 8TB of data that, at the time, I did not have a complete backup of: abso-fucking-lutely. That they handled my situation with speed and without any further bullshit is why I remain a customer.

I have a list of companies that I will not do business with, because of their fuckups, because of shady business tactics, etc. For example, I haven’t bought anything from Nvidia in… 18 years? iRobot, in 7. Haven’t given Hilton any funds willingly in almost 3. Intel, 19 years…

I don’t purchase any SanDisk products so 🤷‍♂️

If the nas dies but the drives are fine, I just grab a new (synology) nas and stick the drives in. The OS will see that it’s in a new model, and start the process of migration (anything that needs changing, enabling, or disabling vs the prior unit, hardware and software capabilities, etc). It’s super easy; I’ve done it myself when I upgraded units a few years ago. If the drives die I have local and remote backups.

I believe it is possible to extract data with a standard Linux system, though it’s been several years since I looked into it. I don’t run raid on my usual machines (well, I have a wd black pcie card with 2x nvme drives running in raid0 on a hw raid chip onboard, but the system is oblivious and thus so am I), so I’d have to do research again if such a situation occurred. I’m not planning on moving away from syno so currently the hypothetical would end up just buying a new unit and being done with it.

Not to advertise but that’s one of the reasons I haven’t moved from synology. They have some special sauce version of raid that allows different drives and sizes without any fuss. I’m mostly attached to the UI but it’s nice to know for when one drive dies, I don’t have to match it or anything.

So I’ve wanted to try Toshiba drives (for both typical use and nas) but it seems impossible to source them. Their official website is a nightmare and I think (?) I’ve seen them on Amazon but nowhere else. And I couldn’t find warranty details either. They seem to be very business/corp and totally oblivious to the consumer/prosumer side.

Where did you get your drives? I’m stateside, if that matters.

Ehh, this practice has stopped - they now label their drives properly on their website/tech specs. I was one of the affected users when I went to raid1 for my 10tb disk (bought ~6mo apart, second drive affected) and I was fucking pissed, as I’ve read mixing CMR and SMR in raid is a recipe for disaster. I straight up told the CS rep that ‘you send me a CMR drive and take the SMR, or I will join the class action lawsuit and never be a WD customer again’. I received a CMR model next day, and they received their SMR drive back.

They pissed me off, but they did the correct response and resolution. I have continued to buy WD since the incident.

“sometimes, you have to smell the atrocious to really understand the positive”

shitting in agony, crying, the bowl soaked in sweat and tears, their hand and legs quivering

“that’s why FuckYourself Maximum Dosage really starts your day off by ruining it in some of the worst suffering we have seen in clinical trials. it’s not a side effect, it’s a main one!”

‘oh fuck make it STOP AAAAGGGHHHHHHH’

“after pinpointing the issue, we then turned the concoction up to 11! now when you are finally able to pick yourself up off the floor and wash yourself of feces, you can enjoy the rest of your day knowing that it can only get better from here”

smelling a lush garden full of flowers baking in sun rays, eyes closed and smiling, as a burning 747 goes down in the distance, and the scene fades with a nuclear bomb exploding

“FuckYourself Maximum Dosage; ask your doctor if it’s right for you. Or an ex. Or a bastard boss. Don’t be shy, we will prescribe it to anyone!”

fade to black

The phrase is incorrect

It will actually be on film, or saved digitally. The camera is merely the tool to capture it.

It’s the capacity of the batteries. Technically the max output, for a very short time :p
