Impressive for someone who came from a family that is absolutely NOT technically apt at all.
Nope, straight up impressive. I tried to do one of mine and gave up after getting my finger stuck and running out of swear words. I pay the local tyre place 15 pounds a corner to swap my tyres as I only have one set of stupidly expensive alloys, maybe I should watch some videos and give it another go sometime.

I forget who it was running as, but I'd chmod -777'd the entire
var/www
directory anyway, so that should've been irrelevant. And I don't think I'd modifiedetc/protocols
...maybe.

Status: Trying to delete a single iSCSI LUN:
Deletion of the iSCSI LUN 0 device will wipe out all the data residing on it and will remove the iSCSI target device. If you are sure you want to do this, please type DELETE ALL LUNS and click Apply.
OK, that's fairly clear that it will only affect one target device not all of them. I hope.
Edit: Every single target is now grayed out...

$ ember new app DEPRECATION: Node v0.10.38 is no longer supported by Ember CLI. Please update to a more recent version of Node undefined version: 1.13.15 Could not find watchman, falling back to NodeWatcher for file system events.

Well, this was a good start...

THEORY:
ember new test
will create a new sub-directory calledtest
in your current working directory and initialize a new ember app inside it.REALITY:
ember new test
will look for a git root, if there is any, and create a directory calledtest
THERE. User won't be notified about this in any way. They will have to usefind
utility or similar to locate the auto-generated skeleton of their new app.Filed under: Aaaaaaaand it took like 5 minutes for ember to piss me off. I haven't even started coding yet.

if (child != null) {
Looks quite innocuous and yet half the project is missing and we don't know why.
Bitten by nulls once again.
*edit nulls the whole way down. I suspect a fuck up in saving or (hopefully) a migration step is missing when importing new projects.
*edit2 hurray! no data loss. just a migration issue which is outside my area of expertise

First time I hear about this crap. Isn't CORS enough? Why do I have to learn another stupid security piece of shit stupid standard. Stupid.

CSP lets sites block JavaScript from non-whitelisted domains or block inline JavaScript completely.

Yeah, that would have probably tipped the scales. Still, a shop could have swapped out the tire on your rim in minutes instead of hours (again, for cheap if not free)....
I know. It's just that most of the shops near me close early-- they aren't exactly after-hours friendly. It's like pulling teeth getting appointments to change winter to all season tires. I'm sure it isn't as bad as I think, but I've sorta built up an association with "I fucking hate dealing with tire shops". I fully acknowledge a shop could have got it done faster and cheaper-- but the one thing they couldn't provide is the knowledge of how to do it.
-
Is this what people do nowadays instead of opening the manual?
If you'd like to skim through a 500 page manual in 2 point font, to find a blurry line diagram that may or may not be decipherable, go ahead.
If you don't have the manual, and would like to try to find a .pdf on a Korean-made webside (Hyundai), go ahead.
If you want to see a real human demonstrate in full color on an actual car and have that done in under 3 minutes... well, then you're me.

Flash forward to several hours later
This is why you go to a garage to do that. It would've taken 5 minutes. Plus, IIRC the place I bought my tires will repair or replace them under warranty.

I miss the old days when they'd let customers back into the back so you could watch.
In this case you'd've seen they throw it on a machine the size of a baby pony and use a large metal prybar. I haven't seen it done in decades but taking a tire off take seconds, ditto putting it back on, and balancing isn't much slower.

I've never had a car that didn't have a fairly clear picture; at any rate, on pretty much any modern car, it's "right behind the front wheel well" and there's usually a crimp in the metal so you can see it. Of course, you already know that now.

Annnd they're back again. The web interface had just frozen. Now I have to make a new LUN and figure out how thin-partitioned LVM is set up.

I'm also like 75% sure it's on the door sticker that also has the tire pressures. Not 80% sure, but 75% sure.

What, where to put the jack? Not on my car, I just checked.

I'll check mine when I put pants on.
Them promptly forget to report back here because my commute's so fucking long.
EDIT: of course I haven't even changed my own oil in like 8-9 years, and I still have ramps. So. Get ramps is the answer to this conundrum. They're cheap.
EDIT EDIT: then Blakeyrat's brain turns on and he realizes ramps don't help with changing tires or wheels. So nevermind.

Due to tinkering with my tablet, I've almost entirely used my data plan quota, and it's only the 10th.

Get ramps is the answer to this conundrum.
Actually, even if they would've been appropriate, some of those little subcompacts you can't get up on ramps because the bumper's so close to the ground. Or at least that used to be true.

Bullshit.
Here in the Seattle area we have legit HILLS that are more steep than the ramps.
Or at least that used to be true.
I think you just had a buddy who modded his car far past the point of practicality.
-

Damn.
Not that I'd necessarily recommend this--among other reasons, they only have a couple of really outdated Windows phones--but Sprint has unlimited data for about the same price as AT&T's 3GB plan. I switched because AT&T's got basically no coverage in my building at work, but Sprint does.

Maybe they don't do that any more, but I had a Geo Metro a long time ago. I didn't make it up.

It was me and it was a stock car with the stock bumper.

Where AT&T really gets you is the overage. If you don't estimate your usage just right, it's $15/GB overage, which is ridiculous.
I used to have a grandfathered AT&T "original iPhone" plan (unlimited data: $30), which I was able to move to like 4 different handsets. Then I took up some company on their offer to pay 100% of my phone bill, did that for a couple years, when I had to sign up back at AT&T I couldn't get my grandfathered plan anymore. :(
I'm not sure, by this point AT&T might have removed that $30/unlimited plan from everybody who'd been grandfathering it from phone to phone to phone all these years. But still, I feel like I might have screwed myself.
Maybe they don't do that any more, but I had a Geo Metro a long time ago. I didn't make it up.
You said "car". Not "glorified golf cart".
Anyway you don't need ramps when your tires are hand-truck sized, and you can pump them up using a hand pump and a football needle.

Not on my car. No sticker at all, which was weird. My wife's Honda (2001) has the tire pressure sticker, but no jack location.
Get ramps is the answer to this conundrum. They're cheap.
That's my next purchase, so I don't have to wait in line to overpay for an oil change.

You're welcome.

beginning to appear relatively sane.
I am sane.... I'm just really bad at communicating.
Although.... I started to gleefully lose it watching tufty break down in a sociopathic delusion (like an arsonist watching someone spontaneously combust). Then he got boring by defaulting to the typical defense logic of, "but someone is treating us bad, therefore we must be right". I wonder if he realizes that he shares that behavior with conspiracy theorists.

If you are careful, it's been possible to keep it, or so I understand. And if you're willing to put up with their throttling if you use "too much" data on your "unlimited" plan. I had one of those but obviously lost it when I switched to Sprint--and Sprint's really is unlimited. I've had a few months with >30GB data.
You said "car". Not "glorified golf cart".
Hey now. The DMV certainly charged me as if it were a car.

Have you looked at what oil costs these days? You're probably not going to save enough money to ever pay back the cost of the ramps, unless you decide to replace your transmission yourself or something.
