:dracula: We out here snorting that refurbished server defective RAM. :dracula: We're smoking that decapped ethernet cable zaza. :dracula: This shit ain't nothing to me, man. :richter: ...
The picture where I'm pointing, that's where everyone's posts live.
Then the innards. There are two tiers, CPUs 3 and 4 as well as RAM banks C and D are on the top tier, which plugs into the motherboard and is held in place by a latch. The bottom tier is where the notorious "Bank 18" lives, which is the location of B7. B11 is sitting useless, because the RAM is installed in pairs.
Hilariously, I left the ethernet cables plugged in and yanked the heads off them when I pulled the machine out of the rack. I also picked up the wrong USB serial cable and thus could not plug the DevTerm into the server and had to wheel in a crash cart.
@shortstories@amerika@wjmaggos@EmoIsDeadAndSoAmI@Bunnyslope@arcanicanis This concern has been addressed in the design. There are facilities to keep a thing away from your machine and avoiding liability for something that you did not post and this is not done yet but there are much better filtering facilities planned than regular fedi software gives you (unless you are the admin).
I explained it repeatedly and you ignored it every time.
> and you go on about how moderation is bad
Depending on what you mean by moderation, this makes no sense. I say "no opinions are censored" and I mean exactly that and you don't listen.
> building a system where it will be impossible...
Building a system under which no one will be able to censor another person? Yes, obviously. No one will be able to decide on anyone else's behalf what they can post, who they can talk to, or who they can listen to.
The printing press was heavily opposed by the Catholic Church: you control history if propagating text relies on having an army of scribes. Hand-wringing from bishops about how, with a printing press, *anyone* could just print *any* kind of heresy ("misinformation" from their perspective) and propagate it all over. What I am building is much more modest than the printing press, but I do not understand why "completely uncensorable" could conceivably be a bad thing to anyone but a statist.
> I didn't say anything negative about him or his dog.
:ronmad: ...Because you shat on the floor last time I threw a party, and-- :reggieoops: I may have shat on the floor, but I didn't shit *in* the punch bowl!
:ronmad: So he basically walked into the funeral and took a shit and-- :reggieoops: Hey! DID YOU READ WHAT I WROTE? I DIDN'T SHIT *IN* THE COFFIN.
> I pointed out that we know people on his server would say horrible shit if the dead was a minority etc.
I was completely hammered and sad about my dog and you wanted to engage in posturing over your "culture war" bullshit because you are a cunt. As far as I am concerned, you're in the same category.
Worse, "Yeah, but we all know some unspecified people would have, they totally would have, and it's your fault!" is the type of argument I am unaccustomed to having with an actual adult man, it seems more like the type one would have with a belligerent woman in the middle of the night. To borrow a phrase from the former president's book, "Dreams of My Father", you ain't my bitch. OBAMA_FRIES.mp3
The thing you keep claiming FSE allowed was the thing that resulted in the first ban, and probably the majority of bans that happened here for quite some time. Harassment was covered under spam. I am frustrated that you repeatedly made the accusation. Aside from things that are illegal, indiscriminate spam was the other thing that could result in a ban without warning.
What is "allowed" is a moot point now, though, because it's all being replaced, which I announced very loudly a very long time ago.
@amerika@wjmaggos@Bunnyslope@EmoIsDeadAndSoAmI@arcanicanis Yeah, it's the only reasonable approach: instead of deciding on others' behalf what they get to see, you let them decide what they'll look at. Worse than attempting to decide are people like this guy, that demand that others decide on behalf of more people that they don't know.
> when you tried to grief @p in the memoriam thread for his canine.
I can understand if he wants to argue with me, but that seemed like probably the worst place for him to do it, and he doesn't even want to talk anything out: every time I talk to him, he's just posturing in the form of senseless demands.
That's in about 30 minutes, by the way, but I will probably get there later; gotta finish something up before I head out, maybe an hour or two. It might actually end up being 3 a.m. :alexjonessmile2:
Impromptu downtime tonight to (finally) pop the bad stick of RAM. Best time for this is 3 a.m. (both in terms of traffic and for other reasons), but in the interest of making sure I'm not passed out (I am exhausted), I'm planning to bring it down at about midnight. Midnight PST is 08:00 UTC.
BOFH of freespeechextremist.com, and former admin. The usual alt if FSE is down: @p@shitposter.club, and others. I am no longer the admin. FSE has no admins now. Welcome to the FSE Autonomous Zone.I'm not angry with you, I'm just disappointed.I am physically in Los Angeles but I exist in a permanent state of 3 a.m.I have dropped a bytebeat album, feel free to DM me for a download code or a link to a tarball: https://finitecell.bandcamp.com/album/villain . There is a chiptunes album there, too.Revolver is coming: https://blog.freespeechextremist.com/blog/revolver-kickoff.html
