@RustyCrab @PurpCat @lina In a corporate setting, it's really easy to ask IT for another hard drive, and they'll send over a dude to plug in another 2 TB SSD in under 30 minutes. The steady flow of new disks is cheaper than paying an engineer to pare back the dev install size.

@RustyCrab @PurpCat @lina I was at a job that needed a nightly sync between international offices with deltas in the 500 to 1000 GB range; loading the data up on an SSD and "same day" shipping it was a serious consideration.

@RustyCrab I think clubcyberia's media server is down; none of you have avatars for me.

E621 mentioned on Hacker News.

@RustyCrab @Inginsub @GNUxeava If you're brave, you could us the flat_map branch https://github.com/microsoft/STL/tree/feature/flat_map instead of the built in standard library.

@RustyCrab @PurpCat @eric @professionalbigot69 @Nudhul I know about volume sweeps, and they're sort of like what I'm talking about, but dead reckoning is used a lot in network protocols that have a ton of entities with very predictable changes. Instead of sending an "I'm here heading this way" message every so and so milliseconds, you send "I'm here and my speed is ~ changing at ~ a second; my heading is ~ changing at ~ a second." You then don't need to send any more updates until you stray significantly from your stated path.

@Forestofenchantment Very gay.

The lunar eclipse just peaked for those of you awake and in the places that can see it.

A blurry picture of the moon I took with my phone through a cheap Chinese spotting scope at about 60x right around peak total lunar eclipse time.

@zonk No! My identity's been stolen. How will my credit score ever recover?

@GaryBussy Isn't that illegal in Germany? Don't Germans have to censor that type of imagery?

@RustyCrab @Paradox @prettygood >tfw have to wear a condom to bed to not get whisked away by the cum police

@PurpCat @ChristiJunior @djsumdog @LukeAlmighty The phenotype's tendency to stick with strange and stupid ideas is why when they're successful they are super successful; they're high risk, high reward personified.

@lina @RustyCrab Short people can take pictures too.

@RustyCrab @jsdenier @Nudhul @sun My grandma gave me Neosporin before that expired literally a decade ago.

@sun Finally, innovation in the keyboard front, but they left out F13-F24.

The crab is posting furry porn on the timeline.

@sun @zonk There are a lot of artists and their followers that have views on copyright that'd make even the RIAA blush. I'm pretty sure they'd try to suck the memory out of your mind if they could, were you to run afoul of their sensibilities.

@sun @Nudhul @mrsaturday The technical term is "devoicing."

I feel like there's a meta of bonding and unbonding to get single tick movement, but I'm not galaxy brained enough to do it consistently.
