      You must be on Pinterest because I just saw that same thing.

      That's a nightmare.

      Pinterest or the zip ties?

      Both?

      Seconded.

      Velcro strips are so much better, been cut far too many times by badly snipped zip ties while doing cable runs...

      Easier to use, less damage to cables.

        It looks cool (the zip ties) but is completely impractical for any real job.

        Even the cable bundles that I have seen at ever job have used Zip ties, and while a good use for those cases (cause they don't break) are still a bad option.

          They break more often then you think. Not only that but they cut into the cables if they get over tightened. Velcro strips don't over tighten and they don't break.

                    I just died a little inside.

                    I just died a lot... On the back of my hands, and sides of my arms.

                          It is a horrible idea. That is why you did not think of it.

                            This actually made me think about my move. I currently have a half rack mounted to my living room wall but in my new place I want to have a cart with everything installed inside of it. Does anyone have a good product they would recommend?

                            Something like this:

                                      Why is ls -F the classify option? Usually these make sense like -l being long format

                                          I honestly never use -F. Where it's not already set at a system level alias, I will change ls to `ls --color=auto'. Much easier to read in general I think.

                                          Besides the --color=auto, -a, -l, and -h are really the few operators I tend to use with ls.

                                            Besides the --color=auto, -a, -l, and -h are really the few operators I tend to use with ls.

                                            i think -d can be useful although I've never used it before today
