Our microwave oven is a sensory nightmare for me. I always try to stop it before it reaches zero and begins beeping. I get extremely anxious over this.
@autism101@actuallyautistic 💀 Had to show this to my husband so we could have a good laugh. He does not understand why I must stop it before it beeps! But he does it too, for me. ♥️♥️♥️
Also watch videos without sound, play games without sound, and cannot stand my stupid car turn-signal blinker noise.
Ok. I am tired of Infosec.exchange being sluggish. I just submitted a crazy order with Hetzner to upgrade the instance. Hopefully the last time for a while. I ordered a dell AMD Genoa 48 core server with 256 GB of ram to act as a database and redis server, a dell 64 core sapphire rapids server with 256gb of ram to act as the single front end/puma/streaming server, and an amd 7950 with 128gb of ram to run minio (insourcing from Backblaze).
I ordered all with 10g network interfaces to be connected to the same switch.
I continue to see issues with Backblaze performance causing issues with posting.
This will consolidate the environment down from about 13 servers to 4 (I will keep using less expensive servers on 1G networks for Sidekiq if it can’t run on the sapphire rapids server.
I will be putting that behind Fastly for global distribution and ddos mitigation. I don’t know whether I’ll keep serving media via bunny.net or try to do that with Fastly also. Bunny works pretty well and is cost effective for media delivery.
Welcome to the new Infosec.exchange members joining from Reddit. No, we are not Twitter/X, yes we talk about more than just Infosec. If you have questions, don’t be afraid to ask.
@jerry Okay. I was afraid to ask, but since you are encouraging questions… If two mind readers are reading each other’s minds, who’s thoughts are they seeing?
So the craziest thing happened today. I went out to lunch because I was not having the happy work day and needed to get away from the house. After lunch, I went to the grocery store next to the restaurant. I don’t know how it happened but when I woke up, I was in my car with Mike’s harder lemonade and some orchids. At least that is the story I’m telling.
I am only now remembering it - when I started having a high fever last week and tested positive for Covid, my wife offered to call the local large animal vet to come out and administer some ivermectin. This is why I love that lady.
