i really love the idea of pirate radio but the only normie rules obeyer thing that i hold truly dear is my ham license. it's a really important part of who i am and how i present myself to the world, and i'd never do anything to endanger it until such time that society collapses, in which case i break out one of the pirate-ready broadcast transmitters i have in cold storage and we go wolfman jack on post-apoc hellworld

being old is your classic rock station literally saying before a song comes on:

“now THIS is classic rock” and it’s Alice in Chains “Man in the Box” 👴🏻
Nah, that's just having been alive longer. Posting "GEN X WAS THE LAST GENERATION TO PLAY OUTSIDE AND RIDE BIKES WITHOUT HELMETS AND PAGERS AND BEING SCARED OF AIDS AND MTV STILL PLAYED MUSIC AND WHATEVER DUMB lovely BULLSHIT I'M WEIRDLY NOSTALGIC ABOUT GRRRRRRRRRR" memes? That's what old is.

sometimes i think i should do one hour a day of classic FM dj radio. and by that i don't mean "classic rock" but the concept of a DJ with some sort of personality doing chatter between tracks and letting things breathe enough but not too much.

the local rap station DJs do it and its all just poo poo like having the dj interject between every fourth song OK FELLAS HERE'S A QUESTION. IS IT COOL TO GET A SIDE CHICK IF YOUR LADY PREGNANT troll poo poo

I had a noble goal for a few days of making a list of every bathroom on campus and rating how it was for pooping in, but gave up after only a couple because most of them are pretty cramped and awful. Now I just poop in my own toilet because 1) bidet and 2) lol @ ever going back to campus

you should make a web app that lets everyone on campus rate and review all the toilets on campus

I’m actually serious, you could call it a test web site for authentication and stuff

at this point it'd be post-post grunge, and that would probably suck so hard that it would make post-grunge good in retrospect

grunge: late 80s/early 90s angst channeled into underground indie rock
post-grunge: late 90s/early 00s angst in the wake of the deaths of kurt cobain and (somewhat later) layne staley
post-post grunge: ????

no offense to the guys from theory of a deadman or creed or staind but I can't imagine enough people would be so broken up over them croaking to channel it into a new evolution of grunge music

what do you typically do with your old hard drives when you replace them in your NAS with newer, bigger ones
it seems like a waste to just have them sitting in anti-static bags for all eternity

you get older computers to put them in

you should get a Gen8 ProLiant DL380, put your old hard drives in that, and run a bunch of different stuff on it—it’s like your Synology but cheaper, with more bays, and something approaching a standard PC so you can just throw whatever at it

also it’ll support a sizable fraction of a terabyte of RAM, though it’ll still cost you $TEXAS for that much
