Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Penciling in an L at Georgia is crazy talk at this point. There's nothing scary about Georgia for this Texas team. There's a strong chance to win out with the level of performance we saw Saturday.

AOC would wipe the floor with anyone else running and your concerns are not real. The main problem with AOC is there would be a lack of unity and self sabotage from the dems if she ran. If she had the org behind her it wouldn't be close.

CFP committee isn't random voters. They definitely watched.

I mainly want to secure the space for now. Capex can come later and be properly scoped. That's more like 25k and a structure with people that get it.

Garbage time TDs and points for vandy they watched. They know it was a blowout and refs gambling fixed it to the line.

You can acquire storage for less than $1.50 per terabyte on hdd and less than $9/TB for ssd. Raw resale on that with remote access in a high availability, secured facility is easily $5/TB/yr on HDD and $50/TB/yr for ssd. Like we do nothing but make it available in chunks they have to buy/subscribe to. This is enterprise grade gear the failure rate at this scale is less than 1% and it's warrantied on our end, with redundancy they would have no disruption in service and we would be degraded for less than 72 hours in a bad scenario. If we put transcode GPUs in instead of storage we could do real time or near time video transcode. You want to stay away from as a service offerings and stay as close to an MSP (managed services provider) as possible. The upside can be 10x a year on acquisition cost with run-rate being long term secured and known.

Guaranteed rack space in a tier 3 Colo with contracted network power and cooling rates. Then on that there's an opportunity to monetise it for a premium depending the space is provisioned or utilized. This is like finding a vacancy on the drag for anything you want to put in it no-restrictions. The opportunity is in the location and the lack of restrictions and massive capacity you can put inside to do whatever you want with.

Well it will cost 3-4k up front and 1750/mo after that just to secure it. I think that's a low enough barrier to entry to secure it before planning a bunch of spend and going down that road.

Its magic how the CFP rankings come out and are based entirely off of people who actually watch football mostly and then the polls magically get much closer to CFP rankings.

Again, a bit of both. I can do this by myself, but it's kind of a small scale thing that could make sense to share a pool. This isn't a go build some huge scaled up thing, it's pick a few things you wanna host and sell it to maybe 500-800 people and just sit on it and maintain it. This isn't a high growth crazy margin play it's an its available and most people don't know how to do it play where you can turn 100k into 200k reliably YoY once it's fully subscribed. It could be as easy as specializing with law firms, could be a "mail us your hard drive" business and an ephemeral VM that can mount a drive and only decrypt it using a key passed by a yubikey in a client. Lots of potential angles here, but things that remain consistent: You can buy 1GBPS symmetric bandwidth for ~900/mo Power and cooling are baked in and contracted long term. There is no restriction on what we can put in the rack from a capitalized hardware perspective and there's a lot of room with today's rack density to put in a single rack. Right now I still have capacity I could reclaim in my current rack and optimize it, but having a second is good for redundancy and potentially scaling. With hardware from last capex cycle you can easily support 5PB of storage, 10TB of DRAM and 2000+ cores of compute in a single rack without breaking the bank. (Let's call it 3.2PB of HDD and 1.8PB of SSD) For reference in AWS the monthly bill for that alone would be in the 6 figures per month with egress fees that go even higher based on usage. When you own the bandwidth you have no ingress or egress fees you buy the pipe. Its a unique opportunity because I have a relationship with them and they will do this instead of rack up their own VPS capacity and its in a top facility. You can't just walk up off the street and get into something like this.

SEC Refs Suck
That's not what happened here. It was very clearly trying to get to the gambling line. It's clear to anyone with eyes what was happening.

A little bit of both. I've thought through a few businesses and that's why I was looking for more rack space.

Apple CarPlay adapter - Lighting to USB C adapter
Are you saying you got like a dongle at the end? If the underlying cable is a data cable the connector dongle would need all the electrical connections to enable data transfer. Highly unlikely from a cheap Chinese bullshit one. Buy a cable built for the purpose they are 25 bucks or less.

Apple CarPlay adapter - Lighting to USB C adapter
There is no such thing as an adapter. They are literally just cables. You need to get data capable cables that support both lightning and USB C. Charging cables are the cheapest, data capable ones are more expensive to make.

I think some places just have less people willing to deal with working while not getting paid. I wouldn't be flying right now it seems very unsafe.

Apple CarPlay adapter - Lighting to USB C adapter
Its not an adapter, its just a cable. They make two ended cables, but many may be charging only. Look up 2 in 1 or 4 in 1 USB C lightning cables.
