the result is: 2 power stripes are melted, and I don't trust anything on that cable

luckily, as it's a modular power supply i just took the cable out and will bin that

i have a new 120gb ssd in, and that also caused a massive fucking amount of work. just plugging that in resulted in graphic card corruption, and eventually found out one sata port is dead

nikki agrees with CatCat

(so now 2/6 sata ports don't work - i accidently pulled one off when removing a cable years ago)

I now have 60GB ssd, and another 120GB ssd. I can put windows on the 60, and PostgreSQL + Linux on the 120
2013-01-10 01010, 2013

and everyone here laughs when I say I have 4gb ram, but I still think 4gb should be more than usable for a bit of dev work
2013-01-10 01019, 2013

maybe linux has made me too trusting of OSes
2013-01-10 01053, 2013

for normal work 4GB should be fine, more is nice if you play with virtual machines.

base memory usage on windows is probably a lot higher compared to linux though.

my setup is crazy - desktop has os on an ssd, and /home nfs mounted off a raid setup

kepstin-work relies a lot on ram caching on the nfs for performance, but he's also symlinked certain things onto the ssd for speed
2013-01-10 01032, 2013
Freso would like an SSD - but also a NAS to move a lot of his not-so-much used stuff to, even his 2 1TB disks are almost full now. :|

Seriously though. He may be a loser, but wearing a hooded sweatshirt only shows a lack of respect if you interpret is as such. It's as much disrespect on their side to not allow him to wear whatever he wants. What he's wearing is not making him better or worse at making decisions about the business.
