Thought something was weird here. The contrast and colour is making it difficult. If you turn up shadows it changes the entire feeling, including where the obvious light source is. I wouldn't expect the dark side of the mattress unless there was a bright light directly above it.

Also the banister/handrail arm wouldn't be horizontal. Most importantly, congrats, you got me invested.

If they ever discover their cousin the ostrich we won't survive the next war

Can the propaganda have more pixels next time please and thank you, how am I meant to understand the wishes of glorious leader if I can't even make out the words?

Was just going to say I prefer Nicole

Been seeing whoosh creep in here and I downvote where I see it. It's not funny, it's just annoying

That's like people calling Tech "the industry" I suppose.

Hey I really appreciate you taking the time. That's super well reasoned and I see the benefit of the approach. I'll have a think!

I like this idea, keep the old parts and reuse for something. I've always wanted a HTPC so maybe this gives me that in the future.

I definitely will look into used parts. Great idea

Lol what part about that said sex worker/chat line? Well, you got me: For only $99.90 per hour I'll talk to you about zero trust best practice that'll get you rock hard. You'll be begging me for a vulnerable endpoint to appear in my network sooooo bad. And I might even let you phish one of my users but I'll make you my bitch first.

I'm really not sure of that's what sex chat lines are like but I think it'd do something for half of lemmy...

My first question is storage, how much do they come with and how easy is that to upgrade? Cos my pc is a tower I can easily upgrade by adding bigger drives and I've got like 3 full size drive bays plus some smaller ssd holder things. Point is I'm a little space conscious and while I'm happy to investigate, I've got space in my pc for any extra storage requirements.

More brrr more better? Huh. More brrr more better.

I did a stint of YouTube gaming and coding tutorials at one point, I've sometimes considered getting back into it. I doubt I would because I'm a little too privacy conscious these days but it's a consideration.

Plus running Minecraft and other older games at 1k fps sounds hilarious. I think I'm realising I can find use cases for the upgrades

In terms of learning tech, I'm not looking to learn in the traditional "home lab" sense. I work in cyber, and the vms I'd be running are likely different from a regular home lab. I'd be learning how to make a windows domain and how to attack/defend/configure. Realising now I should have said that in the post.

I do like the idea of having a server rack but I don't have any storage space for that so it's a future idea at the moment. Hence upgrading the tower to effectively be a server but also gaming.

Might be a dumb question but how would these go for storage? Can you plug a lot of drives into them?

I'm a nerd with a thing for punishing myself so setting up a small fake corporate environment that I can hack or configure would be fun. There's a tool called velociraptor that you can use to hunt over multiple devices which I want to learn.

Also just learning how to configure a domain, group policy, etc. I'd do like an 8 computer network if I had a machine that could run it. Setting up something like network segmentation, then "hacking" in and configuring attacker infrastructure sounds fun if not, again, totally overkill for what I want to do. I'd be phishing myself at the end of the day but it'd be fun to try.

My family and I did a 21k hike over the filming location for Mount Doom in new Zealand a few years ago. We got fish and chips for dinner afterwards as well and I think it's one of the best foods for after a long hike. That looks awesome e

Also living just a bit north of Victor Harbour you've reminded me I should go down there again soon. Haven't been for a couple of years now.

Came here to say this. Maybe we're too silicon valley and she's too whatever the other valley is in valley girl.

Are they the same valley? Am I having a stroke?

I had a snytuingnin once but luckily my doctor removed it.

Little confused by the second link. It's not about Draiman, its just one of the band members saying assassinating trump wouldnt do the US any favours (I somewhat agree for different reasons, killing him would have started civil war 2 most likely).

In case you missed it/didn't think of it, there's a rather notorious tweet about student loans (unless he deleted it) that rubbed me the wrong way so I'd use that instead personally. He basically said "you took out a loan, pay it back" which ignores all the context for those who got one.

Plus there's the fact their lyrics in the last album seem very "can't we all just get along" and tends to trivialise many of the issues in the US right now. It's this idea of "if we all just talked we'd see we have common ground" bullshit like no one has had a real conversation in the last 25 years cos they're all on their phones etc.
