— Ace Dude save sheep.
This is the weirdest thing: Parrot Sings (Don't Fear) The Reaper.
And then he starts crying like a literal infant, to let the world know how much of a man he really is.

HAH! Actually I think they had the part of the interstate closed.
But no, it's not that. I just had to deliver and then pick up going through very old, very decrepit areas with terribly narrow streets and underpasses that shot my nerves to hell.

But the moment someone goes beyond those limits, things change in a hurry. Touching them is definitely beyond the limits.

I've contacted another hosting company - one I've used previously and worked well - about getting a second main server well away from Utah and its terrible power infrastructure. Then I realised they're in Texas, which is fine as long as it doesn't freeze over again.
I had a couple of good go-to providers who support free speech and have decent prices. One got bought out by a larger company and their prices tripled, and the other is the one that just had the datacenter fire. They also have servers in Los Angeles, but currently they're about 200% busy fixing things in Utah because their backup power is still being replaced after the fire, and the local grid has gone down three times in two weeks.
So I had to dig back in my files and find someone we used about 9 years ago. Still around and has some good deals, so I'll likely have another main server in the next few days.

Maybe you could fence off the plot, dump in a bunch of gophers or groundhogs or prairie dogs or whatever, leave them to do their work, then blow it up to finish the job.
You'd probably need some way of recovering the rodents, though, or you'd have to replace them every time.
A food trap or a female in heat might work.

Something like that happened to me about 10 years back during the Portsmouth Air Show. I was riding up on my Harley when a couple of fighters dropped right to the deck and buzzed over the highway.

Our main server was down for two weeks due to a power outage and the ensuing fire and flood (long story). It just came back, and now it's down again because of another power outage. They don't have all their backup power systems online again yet because some of them are currently charcoal.
So I'm looking to get another main server at least a couple of states away from Utah.

I have mixed feelings about rare warbirds flying. It's always thrilling to see them fly but aside from the tragedy of loss of life, some of these airplanes are one of a kind so when they are lost, they're gone forever. Part of me thinks they should never be allowed aloft, but the other part thinks that seeing and hearing them in flight is living history.

You can totally use it for desktops--IIRC the Red Hat distros have it as the default option, even Fedora which is explicitly aimed at desktop users. I tend to go with ext4 when I'm doing Linux installs but there's nothing fundamentally wrong with ZFS.

Anybody remember the late 1960s/early 70s band, The Youngbloods? Listening to their greatest hits right now (although they only really had one hit, "Get Together"). Not bad stuff-- back then, even the one-hit wonders had real talent. So many long-lost bands that should have done better than they did.

Growing up we would watch B52s on low level bombing run practices on their way to the electronic bombing range near Cut Bank, MT near the Canadian border. A few minutes after they passed there would be a couple of Phantoms screaming past in pursuit - low and fast, wailing the whole time.

I'd say fly 'em. I think the incident rate with most warbirds is better than for normal aircraft, as one would expect, given the attention they get and the experience level of those flying them (generalizing here).
I know I've been thrilled to hear "the sound of round" at airshows since I was a kid. We still have two SNJs that do flightseeing around here, see/hear them once in a while.
One special treat was in the last decade at the Chino airshow - 5 P-38s escorting 4 B-25s, I think it was - amazing sight and sound. And then they joined the "parade" of all warbirds flying that day - think the number was 43 or something. That was amazing.

From the comments I believe azjaeger might live near Tucson, if so, would you comment on the Friends and Family days that Davis Montham did yearly? (I was there 10 years ago so I don't know if they do them any longer)
As a hint: they would have a 40s warbird, with a 60's with modern fly formation.
The oldest would be flying it's fastest, the 60's just tooling along and the modern going as slow as a jet can fly.
Impressive.

But aren't some damn fools producing new Me-262s up in OR somewhere?
Point is, new production can happen for select models. I was thinking that one thing coming from 3D might be cheaper/more feasible special production of components for warbirds/new builds.
But as there are now 2 B-29s flying - and that's probably the most expensive proposition there is, in terms of restoring a warbird to flying status - I would think where there's $$$, there's a way.

When you have no sex, your only satisfaction comes from trolling.
Reality is it's own punishment, for many. In the end, there will be no loved ones gathered around the troll. There will be no spouse mourning their loss. There will be no offspring to carry on the name.
There will only be so many troll posts lost in the anonymity of the internet and an eternity in darkness, with no one ever having known it existed.

I used to hang out with some classic car peeps. I asked about the wear and tear and almost all of them said the cars needed to be run or they'd deteriorate in ways that might not be found until they were driven. Mechanical things, if properly built and maintained are made to run a really long time.
The insurance on those things must be obscene, but you can bet the pilot and his/her ground crew go over the aircraft before and after every flight with a fine tooth comb.
And lastly, there was a TBD like the one in the vid and a P-51 flying around Fort Knox the other day. I'm about 12 miles away but with a massively zoomed in telephoto lens I got a blurry snapshot of the two of them. The TBD is huge in comparison to the '51.

To a true motorhead, there is nothing more beautiful than the full throated song of Merlin, Allison, or Pratt. Hence Reno.
Keeping rare warbirds flying is a testament and devotional to the skill and courage of the pilots who flew them to keep us free when life and liberty were in jeopardy. It is a noble pursuit of happiness.
It is also a significant micro-economy that cultivates trades and skills around itself that are rare and beautiful in themselves.

There was a demonstration team called "The Horsemen", and surprise, they flew Mustangs. Saw a Mustang, P-38 and F-15 fly over demo some years ago. Saw an F-86 (restored) fly at the Centennial of flight Air Show in Dayton in 2003. It was pretty hot. Chuck Yeager always said that was the most fun plane he ever flew.

Recently, I somehow stumbled across a video of "The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore" by the Walker Brothers. I liked the song when I was a kid, but upon listening to it again, I was amazed at how good the lead singer's voice was.I think some bands might appear to be one-hit wonders based on their popularity in the US but they actually had more success in England. This was true of the Walker Brothers. I was also noticing the same thing about Jackie Wilson.

Similar size to the existing main server - faster on single-threaded, just a little faster on multi-threaded.
Compared to this backup server it will be night and day. 10 cores instead of 4, and each core twice as fast.
They hope to have the server up and running tomorrow - they need to get a 2TB NVMe drive in for me first - and then I can reload the backups I took from the old main server before the lights went out again in Utah.
