  • Tattoos themselves are stupid. Doubly so if it’s some media IP. “I put Batman on my body!” “Look at this image of Goku on my calf!” I can’t think of many things I’d want to do less than that.

    I would agree with this in regards to product logos like Mt. Dew, Doritos, etc. characters though are actually the very purpose of tattoos.

    tattoos are supposed to tell a story, and represent an important part of your story. getting Goku or Batman tattooed on you is your choice and speaks to your character in your story.

    personally I don’t have any tattoos because I write my story differently, but in another timeline I’d probably have someone like Batman or Superman on me.

    those two characters played an influential role in my character development growing up. I remember seeing the first superman movie with Christopher Reeves and instantly connecting with his “american boyscout” mentality.

    I remember reading so many batman comics growing up too. his thirst for justice, not vengeance, even though he was fully justified to take it struck a chord.

    emblazoning both of their emblems on me would represent who I am and mark an important piece of my character history.

    as I said, I don’t need their emblems written on my flesh for me to tell my story. their impact is deeply engraved on me without the ink. but others may want to take their story to their next step.

    I say, good for them.



  • Still, I feel a bit jealous of how men age differently and seem to keep loads of energy.

    men age differently because everyone ages differently based on their lifestyle.

    what you’re going through is not normal. you should seek medical immediately. it sounds like an endocrine or gallbladder issue.

    you could just be ahead of the curve for multiple reasons. though those 5 Fs can apply to literally any ailing woman in her 30-40s because medical science still ignores them.







  • one thing to consider with a raid is the drive resonance. if you don’t have proper hardware to ensure the drives are properly isolated you could shave months or years off their lifespan.

    always use the same make/model and data density when building a raid. you should also buy them either all new or used that were pulled from another raid.

    also more is better. raids are designed to fail. buy extra drives to replace active drives. my personal rule is to buy 50-75% more than required. so if the raid will have four drives, I buy six or seven.

    also, when one drive fails others will inevitably follow due to manufacturing defects or resonance changes. replace your backup stock when affordable.

    I do agree though. of you’re selfhosting, a raid array is the best place to start. though, I’m personally partial to a raid-10 over a 5.












  • take out the water supply intake by pouring two common products into the water intake lines before the pumps.

    • roof sealant
    • hydraulic cement

    the roof sealant is viscous and sticky. it also cures while wet. it will gum up the pumps and turbines and make them sticky.

    the cement will bind to the sealant and cure rapidly, seizing the rotation of the pumps and turbines.

    it will be impossible to repair them and will need replacements. they may have replacements on site so you also need to puncture the cooling towers. bird shot from a shotgun should thoroughly shred the radiators.

    if fascists can get away with shooting power distribution hubs then why can’t we shoot data centers?
