I use Linkding too, it's very light and it's great, I only wish it had the exclude tag filter and no tag filter. That would make it perfect.

Just a smoother and faster experience. No dead links, no slow downloads, no files that are separated into multiple parts...
You get a VPN and you don't have to worry about "getting caught". Private trackers just further elevate that experience and get you access to better content.

Can't speak from experience, but everything I've read about this tracker is that if you could pick only one, this should be it. Get in while you can.

I'd lose that one day after buying it.

What are those?

Yep. Also remembering that I leave things unfinished all the time, I just come to realization that it's probably not worth it.

When starting a community, especially on Lemmy, you have to be the main poster (who regularly dishes out content) in order to attract people, and even when you gather enough people, you have to keep it from dying, especially if it's a niche community.
It is a commitment.

Yeah remote is Linux.
Thanks, that works, and it's pretty easy. Also I just found out that Putty comes with scp (pscp), so that's pretty neat too.

 

I'm using putty from my win local machine to connect to the server, and so far what I've done is simply selecting text from putty terminal and pasting it into a text editor on my local machine and after editing I just paste it back to nano on the server. I could do that because all the text files I was editing were pretty short, but this config that I want to edit is longer, so I would need to scroll to select all the text from the nano, but that is not possible from the putty (as far as I know), and copying within nano doesnt seem to share the clipboard from server to local machine.

So I'm looking for a better way to do it, but something simple, quick and dirty.

Wouldn't bet on it.

Find alternative... Modded Apollo, or Winston looks cool.

I fixed my keyboard by taking a single wire strand and just taping it with a piece of clear tape. It's been working without any issues for more than a year xD

One trick for a better fingerprint recognition is to set 2+ fingers but scan only one finger for all of them.

This may or may not also increase the likelihood of someone else succesfully unlocking your phone with their own fingerprint.

I finally made a full switch from Sync to Thunder, because even though I know that Sync dev does take huge breaks and he comes back and fixes everything and makes the app even better, I still wanted to make sure I find a good alternative and get familiar with it just in case.

Thunder is a really good app, especially considering its age. It also has the most features and the nicest UI (IMO) among the Lemmy apps. And it being open source is a huge plus too.

Sync is still my favorite, it just feels really nice to use, but I'll stay on Thunder for now.

Voyager is also a really nice app that feels polished and works smoothly, but it's lacking certain features that I like. So I keep it installed as a backup but I don't use it often.

SSD Endurance question. (discuss.tchncs.de)
submitted 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) by Wistful@discuss.tchncs.de to c/techsupport@lemmy.world
 

So, I have Crucial MX500 SSD, and on their spec sheet, the SSD Endurance TBW is 180TB

Crystal Disk Info says the health is at 33% Health, despite Total Host Writes being 54039 GB (30% of specified SSD endurance TBW of 180TB)


So is their specified endurance wrong, is the Total Host Writes data in Crystal Disk Info misleading or wrong, or is there more things that go into determining the "health" of an SSD besides Total Bytes Written? Or could it be that I mistreated the SSD causing its health to get worse?

I saw this article, which made me think about it...

Kids under 16 to be banned from social media after Senate passes world-first laws


Seeing what kind of brainrot kids are watching, makes me think it's a good idea. I wouldn't say all content is bad, but most kids will get hooked on trash content that is intentionally designed to grab their attention.

What would be an effective way to enforce a restriction with the fewest possible side effects? And who should be the one enforcing that restriction in your opinion?

So I've been getting the occasional BSOD and it recently started getting a bit more frequent, so I decided to run a memtest86 over night to check if it's maybe the RAM causing it.
I got 1 error, so then I tested each stick, 1 by 1 (every new stick I would test I also put in a different slot) but I only tested first 3 sticks, thinking that the last one is faulty, since they all passed the test, but yesterday I decided to test the last one as well and that one passed as well. So now I'm confused, not sure what to do...
I was running on 3 sticks for 2 days and I didn't get BSOD, but that still means nothing because it was rare occurrence anyways.

Should I test all of the sticks again? Is there a better test I should be using instead?

(RAM is not OC'd btw)
