M500,

Thanks, I was thinking about a 1tb my passport from western digital.

I live in a third world country so my options are a bit limited.

I’m not worried about her dropping the drive, I just don’t want to ask her to lug around a 3.5” drive.

Are mechanical drive resistant to bit flips?

M500,

Thanks! I don’t mind spending some money, what I was trying to communicate is that I don’t want to spend $1000 on some solution.

I think I’ll get a mechanical drive and a few 256gb usb drive or maybe an ssd and have a few off site copies in case one medium fails.

I’ve never had an ssd go bad, but I’ve had external mechanical drives fail over time, so I’ve been hesitant to trust them.

M500,

I thought mechanical drives are Ok to move around if they are powered off.

M500,

Thanks! I decided to go the ssd route. It’s priced about the same as a usb drive of the same capacity and I have spare enclosures.

M500,

Thanks! I have a spare enclosure and an ssd is about the same cost as a usb drive is similar cost.

M500,

It looks like a 256gb ssd costs about the same as a flash drive. So I’ll probably go that route.

M500,

Tutorials like this that are really simple might be a good way yo introduce the idea that Linux does not need to be difficult or complex.

Chrome is so common and it demonstrates that you can use something familiar on Linux.

M500,

That would be great. I’d love to use that platform as a way to discuss books.

M500,

If you add an item to your cart but don’t buy it right away, you will sometimes see a discount that it meant to encourage you to buy it.

M500,

It is quick. it does not need to load a bunch of things and in certain tasks, I can do multiple things at once.

I also find it easier to navigate and edit files with tab to complete.

M500,

It was suicide. Claim denied!

But he had a heart attack.

We have a receipt that shows he ate McDonald’s 3 years ago. This is clearly suicide by food.

M500,

My only problem with this is that the docks are like $300. I guess igpus are getting good enough that I’ll probably never need a dgpu again.

Still surprised how well the steamdeck can handle resident evil 4 remake.

I really don’t need better graphics than that. In fact, they don’t even need to be that good.

M500,

I didn’t have transitional lenses, but I had the same set of lenses for like 10 years. I just used tissues and tshirt to clean them. I never had a problem with visibility, but around the sides, some coating was coming off, but I never noticed it while wearing these glasses.

M500,

You got it backwards. Is a portable pc that’s like a console.

M500,

Mac updates are weirdly slow.

M500,

Thanks! I suspected they were doing something under the hood but they are not as overtly transparent in this process.

M500,

I could be wrong, but I read someone else’s comment years ago that said the suit was like that on purpose and it was a way for the emperor to control him or something.

Anyway, that might not even be canon even if it’s in some book or game.

M500,

Some blackberry, but if that doesn’t count then it was I think the lg chocolate.

M500,

I kinda like the skillet. I hate cooking, so can I just throw some chicken breast in there and some vegetables and then come back to a delicious meal?

I know others have loopholes, but using the loopholes ruins the fun.

M500,

I was just thinking about why many things on Linux are better. Like the install process on Linux is years ahead of windows.

Then it occurred to me that windows only improves things that can make them money. If you need to install windows, then you can deal with the crappy installer.

Linux devs improve the parts they think need to be better. The decisions are not guided by money and can be made without bias.

M500,

How was I so far off? I’m literally in the middle of season 7 of ds9😂

M500,

I had no idea that he was brom or is it bron? I forget. Wow!

M500,

Haha, I never considered that perspective I envy may cats often, but they do freak out at the smallest thing, like one cat is terrified of trash bags, but only when they are empty.

M500,

Accidentally wipes out Mint last week, but have been meaning to try out Fedora 39 Plasma. So far, I love it. I have been really busy recently, but it has been a great system so far. My SteamDeck really made me fall in love with Plasma.

M500,

Didn’t Linus tech tips do a video on this and find that water cooling doesn’t make much if any difference.
