Roommate made breakfast. Now we are just chilling around the house. Everyone is going out tonight and I'll be the babysitter.
So you are saying there is a chance I can crash girls night?

Depends what you mean. You can crash here for drinks with me. Or you can try to find them somewhere partying. No idea where that will be, though.

Awesome. Provide feedback and questions item by item, that's how I improve them, find gaps, make fixes, etc.

Good technical thread that you don't expect to find on a Saturday...

My neighbors smoke detector seems to have a malfunction, keeps beeping every few minutes... Would really like to get some sleep, just past midnight here.

We have sound pollution laws in much of the US to protect against that. If you can't sleep from that, we get to call the police.

It is not the house alarm he is referring to, it is the smoke detector random beeps of low batteries. Apt walls must be thin.
If it is an apartment, call maintenance and have them go replace the batteries for your neighboor. -

Apt walls must be thin.
Germany: Bricks/concrete and insulation, generally 24cm to 30cm+ thick here

It's on the other side of the street, not the same house.

But honestly, you can still hear that with all windows closed. Those detectors are damn loud

Found it quite entertaining that the Western Digital rep that argues with me about RAID turns out to not even have an passing familiarity with RAID 1: https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/1863505-raid-10-usable-space
Nothing wrong with not knowing your RAID basics, but this is someone whose been pretty violently opposed to the RAID knowledge discussed and collected in the community. Obviously he's never actually read any of it because we talk about these things constantly, provide references for them and, quite frankly, this is entry level knowledge that both CompTIA and Microsoft have required for decades in their entry level exams and is just the most basic stuff to know about mirrored RAID. Even if you didn't know RAID at all, just knowing most servers or RAID implementations would expose this regardless. Not knowing it for a storage vendor's rep (who argues with people trying to defend his position on RAID options) is.... ridiculous.

Had my first welding experience and built a stand for an old grill body to use as a fire pit. My first welds aren't pretty,.. but they are solid and will hold.
Rather impressed that I only burned a hole in one spot,.. and was able to (with guidance) fill it back in.

That's cool. I've done welding and brazing but I totally suck at both. What material did you weld and what kind of welding did you do?

Interesting side not, NTG's founder funded much of the startup through his twenties as a diesel tank welder!

Not sure the steel content,.. but some retired heavy duty shelving units - and gasless MIG. He also as a stick welder, but this was faster and simpler. It was commented of all the students my Father in law has had, those were some of the best first welds he has seen. He taught AG Mechanics for years, so he knows a bit about all welding..
