Well, I’d need to repeat my comment below yours again.

Thanks for that. I hate people who leave out important information and context. They are evil.

Spoiler warning.

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 laughed a bit. Thanks.

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.

Yes. PGP is nicely integrated. I also use the SMTP server “delivered” notifications quite often, when the mail is really important.

FairEmail also handles accounts and identities properly.

Then you can see the email safely, without crap and tracing pixels.

I can also take a look at the email source. This is extremely important for me.

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.

When you like tech and understand email then FairEmail is nice. If you don’t understand the email technology, don’t need features and just want it as simple as possible, choose K9.

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!

I’ve seen someone using Adobe Acrobat just for splitting PDF documents.

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

Isn’t it a regression? I cannot upgrade Debian unstable, either, at the moment. Last time when LLVM had a major upgrade, it took weeks until it was fixed.

Mutual agreement “look ok, but no touch” is perfect.

In 2020 there have been around 3000 data centers in Germany. Sounds more plausible to me.

Germany only 521? Seems a bit low.

What counts as a “data center”? How many rooms and how many racks does it need to have?
