They’re also known as “garbanzo beans”.

Nachos!

Santa Barbara Style please!

As a former windows admin, I can attest to the fact that Windows was shitty code well before AI made it trendy to write shitty code.

Where I grew up, it wasn’t uncommon to see squirrels eating roadkill. Sometimes that roadkill was other squirrels.

Is it cannibalism if you eat your brother BUT he’s already dead and you didn’t kill him?

Death Cab for Cutie is my favorite by far. I’ve seen them live 4 times.

I’ve also seen their frontman perform solo twice, and once more with his other project the Postal Service.

A United Nations conference is scheduled to meet in one month

The lack of urgency here is unbearable. How many more kids will die over this one month?

That’s true! I supposed it would be more precise to say that all processes are files loaded to memory, but not all files loaded to memory are processes. Sort of like the whole arachnids / spiders situation.

I’d call that a file loaded to memory

As I assume most of you are aware

I most certainly was not! After some searching, I found an article about Synology’s new restrictions on which hard drives can be used in Synology’s NASs.

A few important notes:

1. This is a completely bullshit decision on Synology’s part. Unacceptable, and a total overreach.
2. This only applies to new DiskStation/RackStation models, so if you already have yours, you should be fine — as far as I can tell.
3. The internet has responded with a “hack” already: https://github.com/007revad/Synology_HDD_db?utm_source=syndication&pubDate=20250505

A prediction: This is a scream test. Within a month, Synology will walk this back. They’ll make some excuse about it taking time to test other hard drive brands for compatibility. They’ll claim that they never intended to prevent you from using whatever hard drives you want, that they just needed to make 100% sure everything was perfect first, and that they always had your best interests at heart.

This will all be a lie, of course. The real plan is to measure how loud their biggest customers scream about this change. And then, maybe a year or two from now, they’ll quietly update a user agreement or a warranty document to reduce coverage for NASs that use third-party hard drives. Maybe they’ll add some extra “safety features” to DSM for third-party hard drives (of course with the intention of keeping you safe) that will cause a “minor” performance hit.

I’m sure that if you subscribe to DSM Premium for a reasonable monthly fee, all of your problems will be solved.

Fair enough! Maybe if enough organizations follow suit, they’ll be forced to stop ignoring their service being used by spammers and scammers.

Right now they have no incentive to stop abuse on their platform, because they’re making money off of that abuse too. It’s bullshit.

I can’t believe these holocaust survivors are so antisemitic!
