(*shudder)

LJ has had text ads for a while now; you knew that. I logged out to go take a look and I wouldn't have noticed them at all if I hadn't been looking for them. (in other words, it's not that bad, and it'll never be as bad as myspace, so suck it up, princess ;) )

really? they said they were only doing text ads, and that's all I saw. unless you were looking at LJ's ads for LJ?

what material are you constructing the outrigger from?

Door skin, laminated cheepie spruce 2x4 and foam
I'm making spars out of spruce and cedar, they'll be pretty

RAID 5 on a home computer?!? good god man... my nerd sense is fuckin tingling!

PS whats a BBU?

spookyfish April 17 2007, 17:10:43 UTC

a BBU is a battery backup unit, it means if the power goes out the hardware raid controller can keep it's cache (a 128 meg stick of pc133 ram) active until the power comes back on and it can complete it's write requests.
it's very sweet
