  • Great build for a gaming PC. For a server it looks odd. Usually when building a server, your main concern is reliability. Everything goes in pairs. Two CPUs, Two PSUs… It gets tedious fast. Often weaker but much more energy efficient parts are prefered, since unused CPU and RAM is considered wasted.

    It would be much more helpful if you have a usecase you’re building it for (since now I really can’t comment too much on the build). If your primary concern is to try to have a home server, I’d say go for it. You can always upgrade/downgrade down the line.













  • For a Chill Dude I do love your fire! Your thesis is (was before I entered the chat) clear as day. I really don’t have much to add here. Unless this might be interesting:

    There is a fun thing that arised from moving towards SI units in my country (1920). Some old information was lost from the common citizen. There was a unit Gorčius (around 4 litres). There was another unit Saikas (equals to 6 Gorčius). The funny part is that we have a saying “Gerk su saiku” which translates “Drink in moderation”. Taking it literally, it’s slightly funny knowing that the other person just suggested you to drink around 20 litres (usually alcohol is the context).


  • Literally the first thing on wikipedia: The cubit is an ancient unit of length based on the distance from the elbow to the tip of the middle finger.

    I’m pretty sure the dude is trying to say that the measurement is not accurate. I’m not surprised that it could be accurate and standartized from one town to the next. As soon as the first dissagreement starts, it’s gonna get standartized. Otherwise it’s useless as unit.

    Meter has a bonus that it doesn’t allow people to use his body parts for almost precise measurement. Actually blocks a lot of retards from saying “Nuh uh, I myself measured it, so I’m right and your ruler is wrong!”

    Now when I think of it, Cubit is more or less exactly like the inch. It doesn’t match basically anyones finger, different countries had their own standard. You can and many people do use it as a measurement. Side-effect, seeing memes about Napoleon being a dwarf. XD
