Yeah, good advice.

For my parents house with NAS in their living room I still use WD Red Plus (not Red Pro), so pleasant & quiet (which was basically my only concern). But smol. Can’t find new ones as quiet tho.

“warning”

How is the noise?
Did you make any model selection based on that?

Just tariff international shipping, it’s to cheap financially and it’s hurting the non-elite classes of exporting countries as well as the environment.

Mosquitos?
A few.

Anyone have a tl;dr (research) how did they achieve this goal?

Is such a feat done by directly draining swamplands & overall lowering biodiversity until less mosquitoey or is there more like a directly malaria focused effort in the sense mosquitoes arent carrying it?

Oh, wow, this is beautiful!

Can we please stop defunding everything public?

Not everything needs to be incentivized by moneys.

Germany didn’t build up middle class as much, more the lower class (that was saved from starvation), the added a lot to national wealth & common everyday lives via accessible public infrastructure (all of it basically, not just the roads & railroads).

And China is curbing it’s economical growth, and societal changes are happening, the first gens with mandatory education are now retired already.
I can’t really say how much and what directions it’s taking them, but no-one can prob - time will tell.

Yes, exactly this - the first half of the title I was sure it was a comment on western economies.

And I do think that, we live under economic dictatorship.
When production is high enough that scarcity is only planned/artificial, and when you have (such excessive) inequality in labour compensation, it’s not in the overall economical systems interest to continue such nonsense (but ofc it’s in the elites, which have to constantly change and maintain the system in such a state).

So fancy.

And yes, stock gnome looked indeed a bit better but KDE :).

I wonder which global superpower finally made then cave in

Yeah, it’s not good if it’s profit driven, all kinds of shady McFuckery can arise from that.

Maybe local chat bots will become a bit more accessible in time.

Same, but with rsync.
I’m just not competent.

Yes, as said, Im agreeing, I was just pointing out the sad reality of what the majority is doing (and like it or not, that affects us all).
I’d love a legit third choice (again)!

Ok, but “google-infested shit-buckets” are also Chrome and all the chromium poop cups, even more so one might say.

Not disagreeing, especially with the sad sentiment of what’s happening at Mozilla, just trying to keep in mind the other 95% of the browser picture.

Asset managers gonna be snorting pure whole bananas to stay awake.

It just wanted to remove French, ofc I said yes!!

But also, honestly, I always “-y”.
The gamble is I’ll have to use an earlier bitchtree btrfs snapshot.

And thx for the great commentary on point 13.
