Some of those nodes are broken, it’s got coolant leaks and the processors are 8 years old. I read in another article they meant to replace it a couple years ago but couldn’t due to COVID supply chain problems (makes sense tbh).

What I’m saying is, it might be “assembled” already but due to the power draw, you definitely don’t want to run something this out of date. It’s huge. Might be a logistical problem to even get enough juice for this thing. Another poster pointed out it might need its own electrical substation. IMHO it’s only worth parting out. Far too expensive to run.

Those cabinets look nice though, with the Cheyanne graphic on the front.

Nueters

Oh no

how do you pronounce this? Noiters? Nooters?

Edit: it’s very nice, neat idea

For what it’s worth, I’m entertained by people needing to tell you what they think of your copy paste. It’s fun.

Bring back forum signatures!

Correct, it does not, which is why they need to be deleted individually or overwritten.

The irony of a billion dollar company losing my personal info and helpfully offering me credit monitoring service from the other billion dollar company that lost my info. It’s so good.

Throw into the mix: I had to do business with AT&T because they were the only ISP available to my Appartment complex. I never had the choice to not do business with these companies.

Equifax handles my company’s payroll.

Please, I want to get off Mr bones wild ride.

We use it at work for it's actual intended purpose: as a small database that isn't customer facing. It's used and maintained by nontechnical staff to keep data about equipment (slot machines).

It would be too much info for excel, but it's not enough to really need anything more.

I can’t believe this comment chain is this long and no one has pointed out that drunk and stoned humans are terrible at figuring stuff like this out.

You’re not planning for the dumbest human trying in earnest. You’re planning for humans who are tired, distracted and/or chemically altered. A 80 IQ person can figure out a weird trash can eventually if they are trying.

These comments (not just yours) feel misanthropic. I haven’t been to a campsite in ages so I don’t know what sort of trash can puzzlebox we’re talking about, but I work somewhere with alcohol so I can guess what the true issue is.

The largest lemmy instance (lemmy,world) is federated with them. I assume their mastodon instance also is.

You might find friends here if you weren’t so combative. This community is full of socialists, communists and other related left-leaning folks, not democrats.

We still see republicans for who they are: fascists, in the traditional meaning of the word, not as a catch-all insult for people we don’t like.

Our company phones were affected (both cellular and our ability to phone out or take external calls on our traditional phones). For us, the outage started at 4am (edit: this is just when my small department noticed, we're not IT), could be that not everyone noticed.

Maybe I’m wrong but I think the fediverse isn’t quite that fragile. Instances can always close new sign ups if they’re overwhelmed. More users means more donations and more people likely to self host, too.

I guess we could run into real issues if fediverse infrastructure doesn’t scale well (example: required server resources scale exponentially with more users instead of linearly)

In extreme circumstances instances can defederate from larger ones if their mod teams are overwhelmed (obviously this isn’t a good solution but it is something beehaw.org is doing/did with lemmy.world)

My response was to someone who claimed that the system has not fundamentally changed due to credit scores being introduced.

Yes, it is true this is how it works now, it is not how it used to work.
