Often times when you delete something off a computer, the computer simply deletes the address of the data, but doesn't overwrite the data.

Think of a map for a city. If you delete a house off the map, you may not be able to find it anymore, but the house is still there. It's the same for computer storage

It's semi-close to where I live, so I'm not too comfortable saying the area. But it is SoCal

Why not just use a VM?

I'm not sure what phone you have, but getting a Pixel phone was life changing when it comes to handling spam calls. The automated call screening is amazing.

Just a heads up, your phone numbers are clearly visible on the dog tag.

I love that in his autobiography, Total Recall, Arnold Schwarzenegger fails to totally recall all of his accomplishments, since he's had too many.

The right wing really capitalized on the left's good faith approach, for a very long time. Now that younger people that grew up on the internet are a much larger component of the left's base, they don't seem to know how to "own us" anymore. We're used to this sea lioning bullshit, and won't put up with it.

and very old titles that have weirdly restrictive resolutions or control schemes or whathaveyou.

This is correct, but as an addendum, for a lot of very old games (that don't fall into that previous category), it's usually easier to get them working under Linux than it is under Windows. Go figure.

 
 

A friend owns a local Indian market and was trying to photograph some of their food. I offered to give it a try. I'm pretty happy with the result.

 

So I was recently gifted some Mellanox 40gig network cards that I installed in my NAS and my desktop and connected with AOC fiber. I gave them both static IP addresses on their own dedicated subnet that's not used anywhere else in my network. I was able to run iperf3 between both computers, and that worked exactly as expected.

At that point, I edited /etc/fstab to update the IP addresses for my mounted network shares. I ran # mount -a successfully and thought all was well.

The problem is, my computer defaults to my one gig lan connection for some reason, despite the entries in fstab using a completely different subnet.

The only way I've found to force it to work properly is to disable my LAN connection, then remount the network shares, then reenable the LAN port.

On one occasion I noticed that a file I was duplicating on my NAS was being downloaded via my LAN to my computer to duplicate, then being uploaded back to the NAS via the fiber connection.

Does anyone have any clue why this may be happening or how to fix it more permanently?

The NAS is Debian, my desktop is Manjaro.

A while back I got a Unifi AP, and decided to name it WiFi UFO. My main Wi-Fi SSID is ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ and I just got a PoE switch, and it's bugging me that I'm not thinking of something more amusing to name it than USW-24-PoE.
