A small low power PC with some storage, and FreeNAS installed. Once that's done, run the FreeNAS Plex plugin, and move your legally obtained media to the new movie server. For conversion, I like Handbrake.

Right - I was thinking Cairo

Was Chicago DOS or NT based? I forget.

Well if it's running Java then I am impressed. Then again maybe the GC was running for the duration of the storm, and not even Java could sink it.

I had a similar experience in the South China Sea a while back, the dive was fine but then inbound hurricane made getting back in the boat a chore; I got some really good bruises out of that one.

Except that only exceptional people are capable of performing many of the tasks that can't be effectively automated, so we are left with 99 people who are essentially incapable (or unwilling) to work and 1 guy who has to work like a horse to keep all the robots greased.

I read that RFID'd, and then I spent about 60 seconds wondering what those guys I Redmond had been up to. Then I calmed down and reread it.

"The MOS Technology "Agnus", usually called Agnus is an integrated circuit in the custom chipset of the Commodore Amiga computer. The Agnus, Denise and Paula chips collectively formed the OCS and ECS chipsets." - source

It's the chip that does memory access, fat agnus allows 1mb to be used for video and so forth, original agnus allowed access to 512k. I actually had to pull the old agnus out and insert the upgrade part in the 1980s.

Yeah mine has 3mb and a couple SCSI drives, and fat aggie.

I have an A2000 from back in the day, before the clones won the clone wars. Also a floppy based version of Dragons Lair for it. The Amiga was a wonderful machine.

I've been caught. Shit.

I'm just inordinately thrilled to be able to use the phrase correctly for once. Really grinds my gears when people say it instead of saying "forces me to ask the question" or something similar.

Yeah, I guess it's actually a case of begging the question.

I hate it when my problems get angry, it usually just exacerbates things.
