The easiest way would be getting the cheapest SSD (even 30 GB is enough for most distros), swap your current disk with it, pay around, and return where you were, if you don’t like anything.

It’s like you’d do anything than read some short book on Linux basics and learn these 15 new things you never knew about, so you’d actually understand at least something about the system you’re going to use all your life.

Here I mean a computer operating system. Whatever you’d use, you don’t have many options, and assuming you’d not stop using a PC, kinda makes sense to learn the basics.

I don’t know, Windows kinda sucks. It’s literally the worst, you wouldn’t find a system that is worse, would you?

If you’d at least said same things about macOS, which is polished and truly was the best polished system (at least pre macOS 26). But Windows. LOL, it’s like a North Korean someone boasting how cool their country is, the best quality of life in the world. Same vibes. Looks rather miserable.

Have you tried a non-tech solution, like putting the drives into some noise absorbing materials, or isolating the sound with the hard case, things like that? That may sound not really obvious, but my guess is that you can at least get some noise off with a solution like this.

I won’t go with SSDs for a NAS as it’s very expensive. But if money of no concern, that Beelink thing looks impressive.

Just for the record, Arch USB ISO has arch-chroot command that does everything needed. So it’s quite easy to troubleshoot, when needed. Just mount what you need and arch-chroot there.

It was today when I first heard of it!

Using Arch for ~7 years or so! Both servers and desktops. Always just manually vimdiff’ed things.

I wanted one to run Linux as on a smartphone (with a battery), and to use the keyboard. So, without any hardware modifications. But it looks like it’s not cheap, even if I’d find it somewhere. So I gave up on the idea. Maybe, I’d just buy some tiny laptop for that.

Thanks for not much, I have never heard of it before.

Did anyone try CLI clients, like (neo)mutt for that? I expect it can be set up on a server (if we consider self-hosting) and do this job automatically. While all the AI thingy feels like magic, my practical experience shows that there are just some keywords or even just the sender, with which mails can be sorted.

Yeah, they did drop a missile without any explosives in Lviv. Just a piece of fucking metal. That’s certainly new. Was worth panicking for the US embassy.

I surely underestimated them. Next time they’d shoot some garbage from Moscow, I guess. Like rotten apples or a missile full of dead rats. They has to demonstrate they haven’t even started to fight with their full might.

Well, civilians is their primary target, and always was. I have some experience of living in Russia, some long time ago, so, back in 2022, I was genuinely surprised they have something to make war longer than a week or two. I thought everything was stolen. But turned out I just understood their culture and especially history not well enough. So, I’m not surprised about seeing donkeys in their attacks on the front lines. As, again, their primary target is us, civilians. Here, they improve their attacks, as I see it. But I cannot believe they can do anything new that we haven’t seen before. They tried everything already. Even nukes wouldn’t be as significant, only the damage is bigger, apparently.

Honestly, I just don’t believe Russia can attack with anything special and somehow surprise us. They demonstrated everything they could already. A significant attack is like an everyday event, isn’t it?

I’d love to learn more, never really worked with them. Is Tailwind much of improvement with these frameworks?
