Don't sweat it.

I remember looking into this as well like a year ago. I also found the same info and started to look into ssds, consumer and enterprise grade and after all that I realised that most of it is just useless fuzzing about. Yes it is an interesting rabbit hole in which I spent a week probably. In the end one simple thing nullifies most of this: you can track writes per day and SSD health. It is not like you need to somehow made a guess when the drives fail. You do not. Keep track of the health and writes per day and you will get a good sense of how your system behaves. Run that for 6 months and you are infinitely wiser when it comes to this stuff.

I'm confused. The article states that the monthly feed is to remove ad targeting, which I assume means no ads. It does NOT say that they won't collect data on you, just literally that they won't use the data they collect to give you ads.

So this has nothing to do with opting out of data collection, just opting out of ads? That's the feeling I get from the article.

Edit. Well I guess I'm not confused, this is also the wording the Meta's post uses and definitely says nothing about opting out of data collection.

Could you just not include home in the automatic snapshots?

Okay good! Yes the @ seems to be more common and necessary for Timeshift, but I think I'll just keep this and use Snapper or something.

Ah right yes, that makes sense. Edited.

1000e and few weeks of setup does sound something everybody should go for game storage.

Weird.

What the heck even is the point of using email for this?

Have been using Niagara launcher for a while. Quite a different feeling than normal launcher but really great. You can swipe up from any app icon to either open a folder of more apps or attach widgets to a small pop up screen. Super handy and I love it.

Never had a backup system, but then again I haven't used Linux that much. Though considering installing Debian again. Last time I looked at btrfs which seemed dope but there was something weird about it which made me ditch it. Maybe it was that I don't know that much about Linux and configuring automatic backups seemed difficult.

Fuck I kept reading "Android Auto" for some reason and kept wondering why the hell would people need to read pdfs while driving.

Probably working for some random company doing RnD, or at university. Kinda hoping I'd have phd by then but its not likely, contract is ending soon and I'll probably just find a job and never finish my thesis. Probably married as well, assuming fiancee keeps getting healthier. Third cat + dog is quite likely at that point. No kiddos tho.

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2023/10/14/bbc-arabic-reporters-back-hamas-anti-israel-bias/ Seems to be the original news. This one states that the comments were pro Hamas after the original attack. Quite different "vibe" than what this title is suggesting.

I triggered it while driving when I tried to increase volume on my phone through the pocket. Accidentally pressed power button and almost shat myself due to rhe 911 call and siren sound through the car radio.

I kinda want Google to just cancel YouTube. Shit would be hilarious. Also sad and we would lose soooooo much information. But still I kinda just want to see what happens. What new players enter the game, will the monopoly be broken? Though I'm sure Microsoft, Amazon, and other big boys would roll their own versions of YouTube and effectively there would not be a difference, just a small amount of fragmentation.

But still...

Jaa a, takapihalla on vielä kasvirompetta jonkun verran. Kuolleina sata vuotta varmaan mutta olen ollut laiska niiden siivoilemisessa. Jos vaikka nyt ne saisi pois nii ois jees. Porukoilla piti käydä syömässä sunnuntaina ja pakopelissä parin frendin kanssa huomenna. Kovasti harkitsen Debianin asentamista koneeseen mutta itseni tuntien tuskin saan aikaiseksi. Suapi nährä!

You can enable indexing and it works a lot better, but somehow still is way inferior to Everything.

Ohh interesting! I'll take a look. Open source is a nice plus, though to be fair so it Power Toys.

Yeah I used Keypirinha for quite a while too (and something else before that but can't remember), then when I found out about Run (Power Toys) then I started using it as it did everything I needed and I already use Power Toys anyway.

Just the ability to search all files and start all programs via shortcut + text. I feel like they complement each other nicely. I feel like Run is more about starting applications, and not about finding a particular file, whereas Everything is for finding stuff.

And to rewatch if you accidentally dismiss the cutscene.
