There is nothing to refurbish in drives. They are just second hand devices. You can check if they are fine pretty easy and you need to take a look at the age (power on hours). I replace drives at 50k-60k hours, no matter if they are fine.

Mine doesn’t satisfy them, either. I switched off TPM in BIOS.

Exactly. I’m still missing the comical “or else…”.

I’m pretty much since the beginning on Matrix. I have never experienced any questionable content. Large chats (thousands of users) have some spam problems, but the spammers banned quickly and the posts are being removed.

What am I doing right?

I laughed a bit. Thanks.

There is discoveribility, but no one uses it. It’s called Web of Trust (by PGP).

And they are waging direct war on us too, if we considered coordinated attacks on our IT infrastructure and political misinformation campaigns an act of war, like it should be.

The countries in the EU have a recycling system. That’s why it would be a waste of money to export plastic.

There is one exception: it’s when someone pays for the plastic waste.

It’s very probable that someone at the protest showed a symbol that is banned in Germany. Here is the list of banned Islamist organizations in Germany: https://www.verfassungsschutz.de/DE/themen/islamismus-und-islamistischer-terrorismus/verbotene-organisationen/verbotene-organisationen_artikel.html

I just repeated what the article in Germany says. There is no point to downvote me for giving context.

German Fridays for Future considers renaming themselves to distantiate themselves from Greta, too.

Maybe all that is not as simple as people say.

I’ve read about it in a German article and the explanation is that it’s something different to be demonstrating for Palestine or to be pro Hamas. The latter one is the reason Greta Thunberg is criticized.

What does “effective” (ages 2 to 6) mean here? What do I want to show to a kid when I’m angry? That I resort to violence? Do people really think that kids don’t know that parents can be angry?

I cannot imagine one single reason to lose an argument to a 6 year-old kid, stop talking and just hit them.

You’re just a bad parent, if you do that. That’s all.

Most of these observations are subjective. I’ve had some Seagate drives that worked well but were very hot and wasted energy. On the other hand WD was crap so far, starting with 3 TB. Not because of quality, but because of power saving features that were a major annoyance to me (green and some blue drives). Red drives I had were mostly fine, even they wore out pretty quickly (Load_Cycle_Count bugs). They ran at 0% health left for a few years and had other awful SMART and on-drive controller bugs.

Since Seagate and WD are essentially the same company and they lied about SMR before, I wouldn’t buy either of them.

We have multiple proofs that if you’re mixing politics with religion the country becomes utter shithole. But yeah, thanks!

Was this COVID making everyone dumb around the world? Or do aliens invade us soon after they have used the stupidity beam long enough?

If Trump is elected, the USA would also be demolished, but you should not give up the entire country.

To be honest, this is the most disappointing and depressing line.

So you change your towels every time? Otherwise when you start again, the last time you used it, you wiped your butt with it.

Spoiler: No it isn’t.
