linux mint became super slow

so im not sure if this is update related or storage related. somewhere online told me to check ‘page faults’ and theyre at 16998 MINFL and 114 MAJFL. i ran out of storage on my ssd so i clesred half of it by deleting timeshift snapshots (and disabled it). it’s still running like a slug. once an application is open, it’s...

I agree with the other comment to beware and look at getting a new drive in case this one is shitting the bed.

If it were my system I would look for any signs of disk related errors in the logs (likely would show in /var/log/syslog or maybe kern.log).

Also, did you empty your trash (if you used GUI to kill the files)?

You verified the disk has free space right? (Via df or whatever GUI tool, maybe disks or the file manager)

Another thing I might look at out of curiosity is disk io stats. Is the disk swamped with IO for some reason? We’re assuming the bottleneck is disk io but then again maybe something else weird is going on.

As the kids say: Mood. Several months ago when I was binging the show, my growing discomfort at the thought of cases going unsolved drove me to go look up the statuses; at least a few have been solved. Most haven’t though. I hope closure comes one day for each of them.

Well that is rather insidious. Crap. They probably understand the reasons for the GPL very well. Doesn’t mean they support them.

People don’t need to toughen up. If they’re struggling they are already tougher than you realize and maybe tougher than you can imagine.

Yet even the toughest can’t go it alone forever. Nor should they have to. Sucking it up isn’t healthy and it isn’t a bragging point. It is unwise.

If you need help, you need help. Nobody has the right to tell you that you don’t.

This idea that we have to be rugged individualists is bull puckey and is probably responsible for a lot of suicides especially among men.

All people thrive with support and without it they crash and burn eventually.

Young zoomers communicate in memes. Tamarian, but with pictures.

Yeah vscode.

Today’s stupid question: are vim and neovim not the same thing? I just type vi (ancient habit) and use whatever it is that executes. (I can go search but interacting here is more fun lol)

Hm. Maybe I need to dig into the Wikipedia sources then because something is amiss here.

Easy. When scientists come up with a verifiable theory that explains observed gravitational effects in the universe that can’t be explained by general relativity, given visible matter.

They literally said “never had to fire anyone”

But… ok, sure let’s go with your “interpretation”
