I tried AntennaPod but went back because of Android Auto. I just found this showing how to get AntennaPod on AndroidAuto!

I never really saw the appeal, but my friends keep wanting to play it. There is so much waiting. I’m just bored most of the time.

I have a 2060 super. It has all the performance I currently need. I would like to buy a non nvidia graphics card but I can’t justify buying a new card for that reason alone.

Plus it can support Nvidia out of the box.

When I was in Grade 9 we discovered how to make a smoke bomb with Potassium Nitrate and sugar. You can buy Potassium Nitrate at drug stores under the name “saltpeter”. Potassium Nitrate is an oxidizing agent so releases oxygen as it burns. Sugar is naturally flammable but puts itself out. Together it burns hot and releases a lot of smoke. For Halloween we made 2.5 lbs of it and lit it in my back yard. It filled the yard with smoke.

In Grade 10 we tried to outdo ourselves. We found a much cheaper source for Potassium Nitrate at hydroponic stores. We made a 25 lb smoke bomb. We made a 4 minute timer from an alarm clock we got at a thrift store and it filled a park with smoke.

In Grade 11 we had a reputation to uphold. We took a collection from some of our classmates and got enough for a 250 LB smoke bomb. My friend’s parents were out of town and he offered his house for making the smoke bomb. A lot of people showed up. We didn’t plan for this but somehow alcohol showed up and there was a lot of underage drinking. The sugar has to be melted on the stove. We were making batch after batch of the smoke bomb and dumping it in a garbage bin in the middle of the kitchen on a dolly. We had only made about 20 LBs when some drunk girl came in and turned up the stove temperature. It lit prematurely which lit up the entire garbage can. We were instantly blind with the amount of smoke and had to leave the building. The fire department was called. The fire went up into the attic. We did about $18,000 worth of damage to the house.

My primary address is 127.0.0.1.

We have some air gapped environments. VMware have asked us to install vRealize to monitor the CPU usage. Then they want us to export a report from vRealize every month and upload it to VMware so they can bill us accordingly.

My management is dead set on getting off VMware as quickly as possible. I’ve spent a lot of the past year and a half setting up test labs and reporting on these potential replacements:

• oVirt and RHVC
• Nutanix
• scale
• Azure Stack HCI
• VX rail
• Harvester and Rancher
• A variety of qemu wrappers

None of us are very happy about it but it looks like Azure Stack HCI is the winner so far.

I briefly used it. It connects you to all of your neighbors. It’s good for knowing what’s going on in your community.

I run Transmission on a VM that is permanently connected to a VPN. It dumps the completed files on an NFS share. I’m open to trying something different. Transmission seems like the best option.

I had the same experience. It took a whole summer of searching to find a company that would do it.

We had an assignment to make a calculator app in c#. For the equals button I made it run shell(shutdown -s -f -t 0). It would schedule a shutdown to happen instantly and forcefully close everything. I submitted this assignment. My teacher said he was marking them and when he got to my assignment it shut down his computer and he lost his spreadsheet with everyone’s grade. He was surprisingly good natured about it.

I had this happen to me! I created an instance for myself and a few friends. I didn’t tell anyone about it outside the 3 of us and I didn’t post it anywhere. I had some trouble with my SMTP settings initially so disabled the email verification. I fixed the settings and re enabled the email verification. Someone messaged me pointing out that I had an extra 30,492 users. Within 2 days they found me and created that many accounts.

It took a long time to delete. Querying the DB or adding a record took milliseconds, but removing one of these users took about 6 seconds each. They must have had a lot of other records in other tables that got cleaned up at the same time? Removing that many records took me a day and a half.

Thanks for your post. It was very helpful.
