A Friendly Wager With Addicted To Quack
We have sat down with Addicted To Quack without preconditions. It was very dangerous, but we have hammered out this agreement: Whoever wins the Cal-Oregon game on Saturday, that blog gets to control the other blog's tagline for 1 week.
So, let's think up some funny taglines to use, on the off chance that Cal manages to win this Saturday. And, because we fear the gods of karma, let's also think up funny taglines that AtQ could use if this incredibly solid Oregon team wins. I believe in our creativity. I believe in us.

Potential good news. Jackson going down could open up additional PT for Dante (formerly known as Daymeion) Hughes…though of course I don’t root for injuries….

Taglines for Addicted to Quack...
“Nike swoosh sold separately”
“Where football couture meets (induces) seizure disorder”
“Disney, if you want your Duck back, it’s gonna’ cost ya’”
“We were going to go with the town name Urkel, but we thought Eugene would be cooler”
“Hug that tree, or the Duck is going to kick your ass!”
“If only we could have cool colors like Blue and Gold; they’re a bit less phlegmy”
Couldn’t think of anything for CGB because football here is such a serious business.

funny you should mention that
I made the UCLA highlight last night… and while I was encoding it my RAID controller burned out… lost everything that was on that 1TB RAID including all my previous highlights, templates, encoding settings and my vimeo username/passwords… i think I was cussing and yelling for about 10min straight.
I did order a new PCI RAID controller and will get it in 2 days…but I’m going to have to rebuild all my templates from scratch… so my UCLA highlight has been delayed yet again for a few days.

sorry, a RAID is a fast array of hard drives… my video editing was done off of a 1TB RAID… and the chip that controlled it failed and I couldn’t recover any of the data.
I don’t care about the UCLA vid… it was losing the templates and all my past vids that i’m pissed about.

I hope to god that wasn't RAID 0

yes it was a 1TB hardware controlled RAID0… i was too cheap to get a third 500gb drive for RAID1… I lost a ton of movies and TV shows too… painful.

From CS61C I remember that RAID basically halves your drive’s life span!
I would love a full blown RAID 5 array but I’m too cheap also :(
In other words, Go Bears!
by royrules22 on Oct 30, 2008 12:53 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
I’ve heard that but it hasn’t been my experience. This RAID was about 4 years old and only the controller got fried, not the drives… both drives survived fine. I’ll admit though, since i started to edit videos, my power supply died (easy replace) and my RAID controller got fried… vid encoding is damn hardware intensive.
by danzig on Oct 30, 2008 12:57 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
It does not half your life span
But it does increase the likelihood of failure. If either drive fails, the whole thing fails, so your lifespan is the shortest of the two drives. If the controller dies, though, you might be able to put the drives into another controller and get it back – can you pick up another one on eBay or something and try? Did it write junk to the drives?
Do not do RAID0 again. It isn’t worth it (I’m struggling to understand how a third drive would get you RAID1 – are you sure you don’t mean RAID 5? Or would two disks be in RAID1 and the third stand-alone?), just mirror them (RAID1) – drives are too amazingly cheap to lose data to a HDD failure anymore.
by tmoran3020 on Oct 30, 2008 1:46 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
whoops, I meant RAID3… it’s been a while since I set up a RAID. My original plan was RAID3, but I ran out of money. Back then a 500gig drive was very expensive.
I’m going to do another RAID0 but backup some key files from now on. My RAID is for torrents and for fast functions like editing…
I have one dedicated drive for my OS, another for files, a RAID for media and a giant backup for daily sync, none of them partitioned… so losing my RAID isn’t the end of the world, but just annoying as hell.
