I posted the same movie before seeing this. I wish they would make a TV series of these books instead of Foundation. I thought the movie was a good robot movie, but was very disappointed that it didn’t follow the books.

I, Robot - extremely disappointed that it didn’t follow the books, but I’ve watched it several times and if you pretend it came out under a different title it’s a good robot movie.

I had a 2010 Macbook Pro that I was about to throw away a couple of years ago because it was unusable - beach ball of death constantly. I bought a 500GB SSD for around $70 AUD, went on YouTube and about an hour later booted up; it was like a new laptop. I eventually chucked it earlier this year because the battery had it and I didn’t want to spend any more on it.

My wife ran her own business, and a lot of her time was spent chasing up people like this and it was so frustrating. A lot of small business owners do everything themselves, so having to re-issue invoices and chase them up if they weren’t paid was a real pain. She didn’t mess about though, of they didn’t pay and didn’t communicate she would engage a debt-collection company. She also knew some of her clients were also small businesses and would work out a payment plan or extra time if they needed it. But some deliberately strung her along till the last minute.

I did some IT work at a hospital, patient records including names, addresses, conditions and doctor’s notes (inc mental health notes) were stored in the database in plain text. You had to have admin access to the database (which I did), but I was stunned that I could browse anyone’s entire medical information. A few weeks after I left I sent an anonymous email to a couple of people letting them know how bad it was - I didn’t use my real one just in case they may have come after me for looking at the records.

Thanks for the responses; it seems I can’t really do it. I looked into ZFS but if I use that it halves the available disk space to 2TB. I’m using the VM for a media server and thought it would be better to have 1 4TB space instead of 2 2TB disks. At the end of the day it isn’t a big deal, I just thought I’d be able to present both disks as 1.

I hope one day we will be able to charge devices without plugging them in - even if the amount of charge is small, it might be able to trickle charge all the time.

I think the growth of Lemmy over the last few weeks is a clear indicator that Reddit is in decline. I have deleted Apollo and my reddit bookmark and have only gone back when a Google search provided the information I needed. I won’t be going back and I think a lot of people are of the same mind.

I think Water Wars are also a concern.
