After 8 hours, still less than a third of the way done building the RAID. Once this is finished, I’ll have over 100TB of raw storage in the rack.

The only thing worse than 35° and rain is 28° and rain. #ice

I guess you could say Apple was…screwed.
Also: “The report reveals an interesting anecdote about the latest Mac Pro. In late 2012…” Yes, we’re still talking about the “top-end” Mac being sold in 2019.
On track to run out of storage on the 30TB NAS hosting my backups in about 3 months. Â Might have to upgrade sooner rather than later.
I photographed a conference a couple of weeks ago. Here’s a video I just posted detailing the gear I used to capture the event.
Made another step in the jump to 10Gb Ethernet today. Now I’ve got 2 of 3 servers on 10Gb and both desktop Macs on it too. Getting 8-9Gb/sec throughput, even without jumbo frames.
(Yellow is 10Gb, purple is 1Gb.)
There was an amazing sun pillar this morning at sunrise. Pulled over to grab a shot (just north of St. Johns, MI).
Had a great week in Phoenix for #AMS2019. EIPT had a lot of great content this year, and kudos to everyone who volunteered to cover gov employees who couldn’t make it (NOAA/NWS, you were missed).
See you next year for #AMS100!
I took a month off from posting on YouTube. Here’s a quick video on traveling light for the holidays…
Ate my #12grapes for the New Year. Happy 2019!!
So you’re saying there’s a chance… @NWSGrandRapids CC @Chasin_Jason @JTAllen3
Single core is 45% faster, and multi-core is 33% faster than my 6 core 2013 Mac Pro. Really quick.
My Core i7 Mac mini arrived yesterday. First impressions…
It gets hot. I’ve started calling it the hotplate.
The fan moves a lot of air. The airflow is louder than a Mac Pro.
The GPU is keeping up with dual 4K displays, so far.
It’s quick, really quick.
We got our first decent snowfall for the season. Here’s the view out my office window this morning.
After using the Magic Trackpad with haptic feedback, switching back to the original with mechanical buttons feels barbaric.
This video is coming about a week later than I intended, but check out my mini-review of the Canon 85mm f1.8.
FWIW, our polling location here in central Michigan has been packed all day. I can’t remember having to wait that long in line for any previous election.
This is how you go from an average Monday evening to a complete disaster in less than two seconds. Took an hour and a half to clean up the shards of glass that flew up to 15′ away when the lid I was holding burst.
Why in 2018 is the default value for translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints still set to true…?
Seems like many are looking forward to having A-series CPUs in Macs. The speed and power consumption benefits would be significant. However, it comes at the expense of compatibility with other x86 OSes and virtualization. For many, that’s a real inconvenience. #NeverForgetSoftPC
