Git wasn't exactly meant to use LFS (Large File Storage) - not sure if this is fixable at all. At least, under HTTPS. OpenSSH's sshd also used to have a nasty memory leak (somewhat old information, perhaps they fixed that), that starts to be critical when transmitting huge files under the SSH tunnel. If this is still an issue, it's inevitable that large file repositories will fail large downloads now and then, as the SSHD must be restarted regularly to recover server's memory.

At least, under HTTPS. I every day download something from file storages with HTTPS, but only for git that's a problem to download a 50..100 MB mod archive without several restarts. Galileo planet pack and other large archives ~> 500 MB I can download only occasionally. Maybe of course this is a local network problem, but other storages allow the download resuming, so I even don't know if they have broken it or not.

They haven't. It's a problem on the stack. We build services stacking up protocols. One protocol thrusts the following to handle the problems it doesn't know about. And the follower thrusts that the previous one had handled its own problems. With 4 or 5 protocols being stacked, things start to become nasty as it's harder and harder to diagnose problems, mainly because it's current practice to avoid propagating exceptions upstream so the last guy can't know why the thing blew up on his face. He just know that something had gone wrong. That said, I have a mediocre Internet access (not bad, but not good neithet). And I didn't notice any problems while downloading big files from Github. This could be a CDN problem - the one servicing your area can be overloaded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrandedonEarth Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 I have to leave the tropical Mayan Riviera today, and fly back to the temperate Fraser Valley. The end of a great vacation. Ah well, the dog will be happy to see us back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geonovast Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Well, Braum's is on "The list" Wife wanted her burger with nothing but Onions, so I ordered it by saying "Double quarter pounder with nothing but onions." They put more than onions on it. My chicken sandwich had enough mayo on it to birth a calf. I realize they're all about speed at places like this during lunch/dinner, but come on. I seriously doubt waiting another 20 seconds for my food while the people did their jobs correctly would have been detrimental to the company. I didn't even have time to fill the drinks before they called my number. I can wait, and so can everyone else. Then again we're talking about a country where people have called the police on McDonald's for being out of chicken nuggets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razark Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 My freezer died. Last night, I thought I smelled something in the garage. This morning, it was worse. I figured it was something in the trash that needed to go out tonight. Went to take the trash out, and the garage smelled like something had died in there. Finally realized the freezer was not running. And was surrounded by flies. The warm draft of odor that wafted out when I opened it was quite overpowering. Managed to get a friend over and we dragged it out of the garage. I removed the 20+ pound turkey, two chickens, some bacon, some steaks (sigh), and various other bits from it. It must have been off for several days, but I never noticed. Now my garage smells like decay, bleach, and Pine-Sol. I've washed my hands several times, but I can still smell it. Ugh.

Ha, what I hate is when teachers set a really long task that is due first thing in the morning next day. I'm fine with physics and chemistry, and sometimes maths when it's an easy homework, but stuff like art or music is a no-go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fraston Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Math is the bane of my existence.

Well, if you think science is fun (and it is) bear in mind that the farther you go in science, the more math-based it becomes, especially if you head in an applied-science direction like engineering. Once you figure out what you’re supposed to do, math becomes easy. Until you reach calculus, which is where I crashed and burned. Possibly because my fuel became too contaminated with beer to power my brain properly. Watch out for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didn't help that I transferred schools, and what was covered at one in Calc I was not the same as the other, so I bungled Calc II before retaking I.

p1t1o Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Buttons on computers, in cars, anywhere really. Why are they all so unstaisfying? Why they all have a 1mm travel and make a make that muted "dunk" noise? Why not proper buttons with a good 5mm of travel and a nice solid "Ka-Klick!"?
