It's slowly coming back to me... There was a floppy disk that you needed to launch the raid config? Also the platform ran pretty well with debian 4.0 if you're debating what to run on it.

For a non-pizza comment: I've been out of the hardware game for awhile, but the last time I had to set one of these up for RAID, the paper manual (which can probably be found digitally) was helpful. I also vaguely recall RAID 5 either having issues or being unavailable.

The gate crew often gets graded on how quickly they complete boarding, so don't be surprised when your plane's "full" overhead compartments are half empty. Stupid job metrics strike again.

Is this from the book titled Castles? It has been on my list of books to buy for quite some time.

Fascists

The Forever War - Joe Haldeman A fantastic novel on the pointlessness of war, told through the lens of space opera / sci-fi

Same genus, different species.

Remembering things is the primary purpose of the check, but sometimes how you're applying it might require an alternative skill check to make sense. Here are some examples (from https://rpgbot.net/dnd5/characters/impractical-skill-checks/ ):

    
Wisdom – Consoling and counselling a creature through a crisis of faith could be done with a Wisdom (Religion) check.

Charisma – Proselytizing for a faith makes more sense as a Charisma (Religion) check than a Charisma (Persuasion) check.

  

Yeah, definitely don't just stick something in, use protection. If you want to use an unknown public charge, there are USB data blocker adapters you can buy.

You get slow charging (since the devices can't negotiate), but it's better than an infection.

I think they might even hang out when they're outside the office...

I do, several hours per day. Wireless headphones might are okay in short stints, but I really like my wired ones (Sony MDRs, which will probably outlast me)

Not everything normally needs to be saved. However, in this case it looks like the court ordered them to preserve data during discovery and they did not comply. From the article:

Pichai, and many other employees, also testified they did not change the auto-delete setting even after they were made aware of their legal obligation to preserve evidence.

In 5e, the more problematic part of a paladin making holy water here is the use of 25gp worth of powdered silver in the liquid (which doesn't actually hurt them more in 5e, just in classical folklore)

Without any spoilers, I felt that the spider-verse movie was enjoyable on it's own. Where the plot ended was, at least to me, in a good enough spot where I was both extremely satisfied with the movie I just watched and excited for the next film.

This reminds me a little of "A Tale in the Desert".

It is possible that you have a bad infosec team; however, it is more likely that they need to meet outdated compliance goals (SOC 2 comes to mind here).

Infosec is unfortunately a tricky balancing act of compliance, security, and usability.

The AI seemed to struggle with scientific names for #19.

The question ::: spoiler spoiler "Is it in the Actinopterygii class?" ::: was answered as no, though the correct answer should have been yes.

So if the answer is yes and no (conditional versus a universal property of the thing), you always answer yes? I would consider that strange, but as long as it is applied consistently then I suppose it is fine.

It is interesting, but with weird quirks.

It is definitely capable of responding with 🤷‍♂️, but neglects to do so in some expected areas.

"does it use a microprocessor?" 👍 "was it invented before 1970?" 👍

These are somewhat contradictory. No microwave in 1946-1971 could have had a microprocessor. If the answer is "sometimes yes, sometimes no" then 🤷‍♂️ is probably best.

Yeah, I'd agree that with sufficient iterations and clarifying remarks ChatGPT can produce something close to functional. I was mostly disagreeing with the original comment's sentiment that it could be treated like the computer on the Enterprise. While they had several plot specific flaws, the duotronic computers were generally competent and didn't need everything spelled out for them.
