ARM wasn't a sudden shift. 15 years ago it was clearly not going to be going away, simply due to energy efficiency needs. Intel responded with the Atom line, which was widely panned. Once it failed, Intel seemingly decided to skip that entire market.

By definition, to win a Darwin award you must remove yourself from the gene pool. Usually that means killed, but sometimes means accidentally sterilized.

AFAICT, the guy survived, so no Darwin award.

It only seems logical that Lorde would have that talent.

Lots of songs are composed on piano, regardless of the final instruments.

Voter intimidation is a lot harder when the voter doesn't have to physically be there in a narrow window of time.

Kroger owns a bunch of other brands. Do you have one of them in your market, and it's just a branding difference?

Watts per hour isn't a thing. Watts is already a measurement of rate. 67 watts, running for 24 hours, is 1.608 kilowatt-hours.

The rest of your math checks out, assuming no hidden "distribution" or "transmission" fees (like I have).

The denial after the fact is a necessary coping mechanism. Otherwise, they will suffer from the guilt of killing their child.

Which they absolutely did.

Bragged about their crimes to specialized cops who had already identified themselves as such, with evidence on hand, and still only $1,000 each.

That means that violating all of these laws really just costs $1,000, and only if you get caught.

I'm looking to upgrade some of my internal systems to 10 gigabit, and seeing some patchy/conflicting/outdated info. Does anyone have any experience with local fiber? This would be entirely isolated to within my LAN, to enable faster access to my fileserver.

Current existing hardware:

  • MikroTik CSS326-24G-2S+RM, featuring 2 SFP+ ports capable of 10GbE
  • File server with a consumer-grade desktop PC motherboard. I have multiple options for this one going forward, but all will have at least 1 open PCIe x4+ slot
  • This file server already has an LSI SAS x8 card connected to an external DAS
  • Additional consumer-grade desktop PC, also featuring an open PCIe x4 slot.
  • Physical access to run a fiber cable through the ceiling/walls

My primary goal is to have these connected as fast as possible to each other, while also allowing access to the rest of the LAN. I'm reluctant to use Cat6a (which is what these are currently using) due to reports of excessive heat and instability from the SFP+ modules.

As such, I'm willing to run some fiber cables. Here is my current plan, mostly sourced from FS:

  • 2x Supermicro AOC-STGN-i2S / AOC-STGN-i1S (sourced from eBay)
  • 2x Intel E10GSFPSR Compatible 10GBASE-SR SFP+ 850nm 300m DOM Duplex LC/UPC MMF Optical Transceiver Module (FS P/N: SFP-10GSR-85 for the NIC side)
  • 2x Ubiquiti UF-MM-10G Compatible 10GBASE-SR SFP+ 850nm 300m DOM Duplex LC/UPC MMF Optical Transceiver Module (FS P/N: SFP-10GSR-85, for the switch side)
  • 2x 15m (49ft) Fiber Patch Cable, LC UPC to LC UPC, Duplex, 2 Fibers, Multimode (OM4), Riser (OFNR), 2.0mm, Tight-Buffered, Aqua (FS P/N: OM4LCDX)

I know the cards are x8, but it seems that's only needed to max out both ports. I will only be using one port on each card.

Are fiber keystone jacks/couplers (FS P/N: KJ-OM4LCDX) a bad idea?

Am I missing something completely? Are these even compatible with each other? I chose Ubiquti for the switch SFP+ since Mikrotik doesn't vendor-lock, AFAICT.

I want to believe this. I really do. Maybe the surprise will be that it really did happen.

But I'm not confident. I'm expecting it to be razor-thin, with results unclear even days later.

Their claim is that the country has been ruined by the left, and they want to restore it to its former glory. It requires ignoring the fact that the country has taken a hard right shift since the time they are idealizing.

As for the cognitive dissonance, Stephen Colbert (during The Colbert Report) played around with this self-contradiction. His book is titled "America Again: Re-becoming The Greatness We Never Weren't"
