surface temperature is generally lower than core temp. you know where that means you need to stick it.
DIA is super-easy in this regard... one of the advantages of a "modern" airport.
I guess 1995 isn't really "modern" any more, but you get the idea.
i can describe getting picked up at the charlotte airport to the start of a formula 1 race...DIA is super-easy in this regard... one of the advantages of a "modern" airport.

Dad brought his thermometer over and I re-checked... 97.7º on his thermometer. So I re-checked with ours, and it showed 97.7º as well. So... I might have moved around or accidentally opened my pie hole a bit on that first go-round? Either way... no fever. And a bit cold-blooded?
Grrr...
Both fucking hard drives failed on my desktop. 0/C:, a SSD, failed 9/26, replaced it, now 1/D:, 2 TB hard drive, making noise and it has my whole life on it.
Might have backed it up something like a year ago...
I guess I will be asking a recovery service to try to save my sorry ass...

RAID in your future?
Dayum, man... that's some MAJOR bum luck.
Not sure. We'll see what might be recoverable first...
i've entertained the idea of doing it as well, especially now that hard drives are so cheap. all my photos of my kids are digital, plus over a decade of my own.
i forget what pullout i was on that i got a nice shot of the three fires going on....So many dead trees...
Booooo.......
My next computer will definitely have a RAID array of some sort. I currently back everything up manually and it's a pain in the dick.
Which reminds me, probably time to do it again. I also keep a third HDD in my locker at work with most of our digital pictures on it, just in case anything ever happens to the house. This was driven home last march when our neighbors house caught fire. The fire was put out pretty quick but their desktop suffered water damage.
I ended up with a Synology Diskstation DS418 a month or so back. Have it set up with 4 x 4TB drives in a RAID 5 array. It holds the past 10 or so years worth of photos along with my entire music library, and every digitized home video of my childhood. This NAS backs up to the Backblaze cloud for additional safety.
I want to say it cost me about $800, which is a small price to pay for the priceless memories it retains.
That will just add complexity to what he needs to do and offer a false sense of your stuff being backed up.
If one drive is garbage or corrupt, the second, third, fourth etc etc will also be the same.
Not so hot: US data suggest human bodies are cooling down
Normal body temperatures are a fraction of a degree colder than they were in the nineteenth century.

So far today I have:
- done a 30 minute Power Zone Max on le Peloton
- snuggled with the baby and given her good tickles and eating of her baby neck
- rolled into work late and gotten my half day's worth of work done posthaste
- given lectures to the residents via Zoom on pancreatitis and financial matters, intruding on Stoney's turf
Still left on the docket:
- study visit two for the COVID vaccine trial, 100 mcg more of placebo or mRNA into my arm to come
- donating blood
- cooking up two lovely wagyu hybrid bavettes
Since you mentioned the ///Peleton, have you looked at or tried the Assault Bike? I might see one in my future. My current trainer arrangement isn’t floating my boat..Not so hot: US data suggest human bodies are cooling down

n00b here: Correct me if i'm wrong, which seems to be the case based on your above post, but isn't the whole point of going with an array to back shit up when a drive goes tits up?
it depends on the level of RAID and failure mode of a given drive.
It really depends on what you're trying to protect against and also what raid level you're using.
RAID 1 for example, which will mirror drives might protect you from a disk failure, but if you're actual data is corrupt/infected/encrypted/deleted/whatever, the data on both drives will be fubar'd. Some people don't realize this and get screwed over.
@Adventurous has a good handle on it, it looks like. RAID protecting from a local disk failure and if everything goes tits up, there is a disconnected backup somewhere else.

its been a while since i've read, but IIRC i'd want at least RAID5
Gotcha.
I guess a physical failure is my biggest worry. It's not like I'm some kind of super user or running IT at some Fortune 100 conglomo. I'm just trying to protect against losing all the baby pictures.
Keep it simple and just back them up somewhere else.
Thats what I'm doing now. I guess I'm just lazy and figured "surely there must be a better way".Keep it simple and just back them up somewhere else.
Booze lowers your core temp, you hungover bro.
Understandable if you don't trust teh googles et al, but how about cloud storage. All my shit goes to a dropbox account. I just keep personal financial data seperate.
OK, so apparently this Zoom call was my real interview with the honchos. Feel like I kicked ass. But I was sweating profusely by the end.
Gonna go ride my favorite local DH now...

We may have a winner. This truck is in overall very good shape and seems to run well. It's dirty, but that is just effort. I think I can get it for about $5k. That would be half the price of the one in Tacoma. That would make me a very happy man.

Google can have the baby pictures. I really ought to look into this more, but as it sits our entire digital photo library consists of just shy of 72GB. Not sure what that cost me a month, vs 10 minutes a month backing up to 2 hard drives.
Well you don't need to keep backing up the old stuff. I'd archive the existing 72GB on a few different bits of physical media stored in different locations and just cloud the new stuff. Google pictures gives you 15 GB gratis.
