        Upgrading XO to the latest release! Had to free up some space first. So far so good.

        Well that was easy....

          Thinking about getting one of these for the front of my house.

          https://www.ubnt.com/unifi-video/unifi-video-camera-g3/

          Pretty nice camera, with what appears to be some good looking software.

          Not bad for $140

            Any idea who ChipG is on SW? He claims to be someone that changes his name so that we won't know who he is, but claims he was my employer and fired me, multiple times (um, what?) I was once laid off by a Syrian company when they went bankrupt, but that was it in IT. I was fired from a hotel in the 1990s, but once the owner figured out that I was fired by the person stealing from the till because I was the one person that knew who was stealing from the till, they hired me back at a huge consulting rate. So I guess he's claiming to be the person that stole from the till - which would make him a 50 year old prostitute in NY (yes, the hotel's shift manager was a prostitute, that's why she took the hotel job to be near clients as it was a truck stop.)

            He just went on a rampage telling me that there is nothing, anywhere, ever that suggests RAID 10 is okay to use with four drives. Zero technical info, just ranting. Mods got him fast, but I'm wondering who the heck he is.

            Ah I see.
            He's not referring to YOU specifically but what he PERCEIVES your personality/type to be.

            Okay....I have worked with you in the past. Fired you more than once. Different name, different places...but, same person.

            So, he/she (/it?) is saying that he's seen your 'type' before and fired them... at lease twice. Two different people in two different places.
            Possibly the same beef with him but he's been (or liked better by those) further up the food chain and taa daa. The resume gets dusted off for the "Your type" guy.

                This actually seems pretty cool: https://www.amazon.com/S-ResMed-Personal-Sleep-Solution/dp/B00NP52QE0/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1486478635&sr=8-1&keywords=S%2B+by+ResMed

                "It uses sonar, and those ultrasonic pulses can see straight through blanket (and PJ's) to monitor the movement of your chest as your breathe your way through the different stages of sleep."

                Note that a San Diego, California based company, ResMed purchased Zeo's intellectual property. Sadly, ResMed produces another of the cannot possibly (and doesn't) work bedside sleep monitors, the S+. It bathes the sleeper in microwave radiation and uses the Doppler-shift in reflected microwaves to detect upper body motion and respiration. Aside from bathing its user in microwaves, which seems somewhat contradictory to health-promoting, and having no idea what's going on inside the sleeper's brain, thus being more wrong than right, it is confused by anyone else who might be sharing the same bed. No thanks.

                https://www.grc.com/zeo.htm

                So...who wants to be cooked while they sleep?

                I could use a base tan 😄

                Laura is so unbelievably afraid of radiation it's almost a phobia so that's a no go anyway

                I used to work in the nuclear medical waste area of a hospital and in our training we learned that Americans do so much to shield themselves from radiation that it's become a health problem. Most Americans don't get a proper amount of radiation for maximum health.

                Speaking to the choir on that one, at least around here. I wish I could remember the name of that movie about nuclear power. A banana has more natural radiation than a generation plant releases in a year. And a beach in Brazil has a natural level of around 12. It's very sad that we don't have a clue of where the point is that your health starts to deteriorate.

                Exactly, we're so worried about skin cancer, etc.

                Was skin cancer a huge problem pre 1980's?

                It's a big thing here.

                Educational link about skin cancer for those that are interested: https://www.aimatmelanoma.org/about-melanoma/melanoma-stats-facts-and-figures/

                  @scottalamiller ummm ok then....
                  If you are an employer and keep hiring the same person and firing them multiple times. Then you are the idiot 😛

                  That was my first thought too 😛

                    That seems far fetched. And in conjunction with him saying to buy the biggest possible drives and put them in RAID 5 and to only use RAID 01 not 10.

                      Not really. Just a troll exhibiting its natural behaviour patterns 😛

                              That's a start. I feel like something more subtle, though. Something that people will get to understand but isn't so blatant to the newbie troll.

                                          The entire 5th floor here smells like paint thinner or some other kind of solvent. If my later posts don't make sense, don't worry - it's just the bain drammage.

                                            But most of your posts make sense at least marginally... I'm slightly confused.
