How pedantic do we get to be? Like, I’d be fine with flying because I could just hover a millimeter from the ground instead of standing, I would think

Ahh yep, that’ll do it. At least you figured out the issue!

I use ‘du -Lhs’ to check directory size. How long does it take for you to run that command? The only time I’ve ever run into a ‘du’ command taking a long time is when running it over the network to a slow-ass 2010-era system in California for a project I was doing at work with hundreds of terabytes of data and millions of files.

Not so much go bad but kinda like others have mentioned, moisture in the air will always eventually get soaked into it. It’s worse with other filaments - Nylon, PETG, and ABS are particularly bad for it - but PLA definitely shares the same issues. Moisture from the air also doesn’t just suddenly leave - you need to manually and purposefully dry the filament out with a filament dryer or food dryer. Moist PLA can print just fine, but the moisture can also cause the filament to be super brittle, and/or cause little bubbles or breaks in the filament after it comes out of the nozzle.

Not sure why it would appear to have happened suddenly after a number of years, but I have a suspicion that it probably didn’t happen quite as suddenly as you think it did. Could also be the shape of the roll itself - maybe it’s got little “windows” towards the center of the roll that allowed in more moisture than the closed-off portions and you only just now used the roll up to that point?

I’ve got duo; we had to have it at my uni for 2FA for our school emails. As far as I can tell it really isn’t very invasive. That said, I do think it tracks general location but I don’t believe it goes further than that.

Oh, of course. There are negatives to everything for sure. But I think as a whole it’s made life better in a lot of different ways.

Near-infinite access to pretty much any information you can possibly dream of, content, questions, etc, on a little device in your pocket

Are those 3D printed replacement caps or something?

I love it! I use a Model M daily for work and remapped my RAlt to a windows key.

Oh this is gonna add some awesome stickers to my iOS keyboard

Sue-dough & s-s-h here. Can’t speak to zsh yet, haven’t actually talked about it w/ others yet. How about /etc/? Sometimes I call it “e-t-c” but others I say “etsee”

I’ll let you guess if that was my most or my least favorite

…absolutely, positively, super false. I work in a sector where we’re constantly dealing with huge capacity enterprise SSDs - 15 and 30 terabytes at times. Always using RAID. It’s not even a question. Not only can you have controller malfunctions, but even though you’ve got what’s known as “over provisioning” on the SSDs, you still need to watch out for total disk failures!

On the Pentalobe screw front, albeit somewhat random, I do know that all Samsung SATA & SAS 2.5” SSDs use Pentalobe screws to hold them together. Unsure if there are other Samsung products that use them as well but I deal with their drives on a weekly basis.

Doesn’t look like they’re pulling off of anything to me… just looks like diagonal nails

A few months ago I watched a single YouTuber play factorio and decided “oh I’ll just hop on a new save & have some fun for an hour” and boom there went a solid 200+ hours over the course of like 3 months… not falling for that one again

You forgot “addicting”

Not sure because I use TestFlight but I believe it’s because they pushed a huge app update today. They pushed it for TestFlight a week or two back and it logged me out then as well.

A “mysterious signal from space” being just the fact that it’s owned by Google

That’s pretty sweet. Have always wanted one of those terminals; I feel like you could do so many things with them.
