Yeah, I originally thought it was a one-off for S&M, and then they started using it when they walked on stage. But then I saw some live footage from before S&M, with EoG in the background as they arrived, so it has obviously been part of their catalog for a while.
School started this week, with all the prep work that involves when three of my kids are school aged.
Other than that, work. Still working on setting up this server cluster. Today I got the remaining disks raided and partitioned. Tomorrow I'll be setting up beegfs.

It's not really a bad song, it's just incredibly boring compared to the rest of their catalog. I'm not opposed to (their) slow songs either, just that one.
Metallica had this thing where every song they made ended up on an album. Loaf and ReLoad should've been one album. They have some great songs, but some pretty awful ones too
I did Tae kwon-do as a kid, but quit due to other hobbies and a tight schedule.
My oldest kid joined Karate around 2016, and I had to admit it looked like fun. I eventually ended up joining the adult group, and stayed there until we all moved in 2020. After the move there wasn't a club nearby that did the same style (wado ryo), so we both called it quits at green belt.
I'm intrigued. The search results are more akin to how they used to be 25 years ago on the internet that I loved Https://Search.marginalia.nu is definitely something I'll be exploring going forward!
China: "We would like to extend our rail network and connect our countries together. We can supply you with all the rail infrastructure, free of charge."
Vietnam: "Great, and in return we can supply you with as many salt water crocodiles as you want."
China: "...."
Vietnam: "?"
China: "Fine, whatever."
Yes. And you will regret it. Vitamin C is a water soluble chemical, and when your body notices that it has too much, it will start to get rid of it through watery methods. This mostly means diarrhea.
And another word for vitamin C is ascorbic acid. Acid and the delicate skin of balloon knots are not a good combination.
I don't remember how many files, but typically these geophysical recordings clock in at 10-30 GB. What I do remember, though, was the total transfer size: 4TB. It was kind of like a bunch of .segd, and they were stored in this server cluster that was mounted in a shipping container for easy transport and lifting onboard survey ships. Some geophysics processors needed it on the other side of the world. There were nobody physically heading in the same direction as the transfer, so we figured it would just be easier to rsync it over 4G. It took a little over a week to transfer.
Normally when we have transfers of a substantial size going far, we ship it on LTO. For short distance transfers we usually run a fiber, and I have no idea how big the largest transfer job has been that way. Must be in the hundreds of TB. The entire cluster is 1.2PB, bit I can't recall ever having to transfer everything in one go, as the receiving end usually has a lot less space.
