A RAID member disk walks into a bar. Bartender asks what's wrong.
"Parity error"
"Yeah, you look a bit off"
@SwiftOnSecurity The sad RAID6 member at the bar asks the newcomer, "Could you spare 2 bits?"
@ChuckMcManis @SwiftOnSecurity So it's sad because it couldn't afford a shave and a haircut?

Ok... that made my whole week.

It was Terrible. And also it was nearly a spit-take.

@SwiftOnSecurity “Parity Error” will be the name of the next cocktail I create

@SwiftOnSecurity

Squaaark! Pieces of eight!
Squaaark! Pieces of eight!
Squaaark! Pieces of eight!
Squaaark! Pieces of nine!
SYSTEM HALTED - PARROTY ERROR

@Niall @Daveosaurus @SwiftOnSecurity well it was alive when you bought it
@essjax This parrot is dead. It is no more. Its carked it. It is an 0XFF parrot.
@Daveosaurus @SwiftOnSecurity
* Edit for punctuation. Considered changing 0XFF to 0X because that flows better but decided against it because the hex joke may be less obvious and the joke would still be pathetic
@SwiftOnSecurity 4 members of a RAID walk into a bar. Bartender serves them five beers.
@SwiftOnSecurity Four members of a RAID set walk into a bar and ask for a bee. The bartender serves them a beer.
@kithrup @SwiftOnSecurity it can get even meta if you integrate that RAID is the French equivalent to SWAT.
@SwiftOnSecurity @TundraWolf 5 disks enter a bar, bartender "Fuck! It's a RAID!"
@SwiftOnSecurity Now I wonder, did you re-discover your own joke after reading my blog post from 2019 that quotes it? 🤔
(Thanks for your comment, btw)
@oraculix other way around unfortunately but I wish I had the gumption to go along with it and give you the cool story :)

@SwiftOnSecurity

A sad clown overhears, “Parody error? That’s not funny, not even a little bit.”

@SwiftOnSecurity - then ZFS walking in, and shot them all..
