"The Medline warehouse (1 million sq ft) is destroyed and fully gutted. Fire spread to the FedEx hub across the way and to grass fires in fallout path. No injuries. Burning across "several hundred acres, a square mile each way."" The size of this is incredible.

Why is it impossible to make water a fuel
for vehicles?

With rising oil prices, I'd thought why no one has successfully invented an engine that can intake water as fuel, I know there have been conspiracies about actual successful ones being shut down but scientifically speaking what makes this impossible?

Internal_Style6581 . 20h ago

This is definitely in the right place.

You could go watch "Chain Reaction" with Keanu Reeves where they discover a way to make cold fusion work. Not grounded in science but will align with your post.

i have opinion on sysadmin
reddit post to r/sysadmin
 Is sysadmin really that depressing?
General Discussion

I see in lots of threads where people talk about the profession in a depressing and downy way. Like having a bottle of whiskey in the office, never touching computers again, never working with humans again, being slaves, ”just janitors” etc.

What’s is so bad about the role of a sysadmin and which IT roles do you think is better? What makes you tired of it? Why don’t you change role? And finally, to make the role ”non-depressing”, what would you change?

My response:
Simple. IT is a fixed cost that maintains very little visible value. Because of this, everyone's trying to cut corners on IT, up to and including staffing down to 0. Because of this, it burns out sysadmins particularly fast because they're constantly trying to justify anything and everything they do. And all you get for your trouble is day to day normalcy. When you fix all the problems, you're just the background now. Then some beancounter comes along and removes more budget. You can never get it back because you don't produce product. You're the glue and no one cares about the glue.
