  • Lol, my last line was a joke. A shot in the dark hoping you might get it. In the game Hollow Knight, there is a character called Hornet. She’s getting a whole game, called Silksong. Anyways, the game only has sounds as voiceacting and Hornet says “Shaw” a lot. (You can try searching “Hornet Shaw” on Youtube if you’re curious, but I warn you of the brainrot, the community is insane)

    I already started with book#2. Was just planning on reading it a bit when I noticed your reply. It’s written way to well for me to just drop it. I’ll (try to) drop by when I’m done.


  • No problem, thanks for the help. Also I got news is that I don’t have to trust anyone with my laptop, I can keep it by my side after all. Still it’s a security mesure, that I didn’t solve in time. fun fact: LUKS on /home only breaks KDE. I really don’t want to give up kde tho, I put on sway, realised that I needed to memorise console commands to change my fking volumes, so no thank you. I got spoiled by sweet UIs. it’s so comfortable that everything is at one place.





  • What I’m getting from this is badblocks isn’t a magical tool that makes all storage devices faster and better anymore. correct? The fact that modern storage devices do that is a bit scary. I’m guessing it’s firmware, no way to turn it off. And why would you, it helps you, just takes control away from you.

    I wasn’t really trying to wipe my storage device, but to make it faster. However you said a bunch of interesting stuff, and I thank you for that.


  • Okay I just had a bit of freetime to test it: doesn’t work… if I log out or sleep, my home dir is still mounted. Meaning it’s as good as nothing. Looked at the plasma fix, didn’t work. I have a pretty good lead, that I need the topmost template from some wiki:

    [Unit]
    PartOf=graphical-session.target
    

    Problem is, where in the world should I write this? I really don’t expect you to know, but maybe I’m talking to a genius. The internet didn’t help, or I used it wrong.


  • didn’t run a timer, it was still fast enough, but for turning it off and on every 5 minutes (or more realisticly hour)… I’d like the fastest possible. I’ll have fun with this badblocks, sounds OP af. However I don’t think it’s a good sign if this returns anything right? I could make it so the filesystem avoids that block, that is good and all, but doesn’t that means my SSD started “turning bad”. So either way I should get a new one? If one cell fails other will soon follow, and my data is lost, no?


  • Hehe, Thank you. But by the time I’m reading this I’ve already done it. Got stuck on a couple or roadblocks, but figured it out. I got scared when I didn’t “enable” the service just “start” it. I’m not safe(-ish enough). :D

    edit: well not the plasma fix. wiki said if it’s a problem I need to start something, and that something should be on by default. So I didn’t do anything, maybe that’s a problem




  • Well, just finished reading the first book. I took my sweet time lol. If I have to give a one sentance review I’d say that “I’d like to like it”. The ending was very good, and I’m looking forward for their andventures. However all of part one and the first half of part two were spiteful.

    The main characters survived everything with plot armor, they all should have died. >!When they got thrown off a multi story moving city, soft ground is a bullshit excuse, there weren’t even injured. Later Kate asked the antagonist about his secret evil plans, and were just sent away, Tom got “killed”. You could argue they just got lucky or “you wouldn’t be reading about them if nothing extraordinary happened”. But you can’t even argue that a terminator just shut down, it’s batteries emptied, JUST when it was about to kill Hester. And Tom was praised, he got bitch slapped, and almost died!!< I also feel like the charscter development was a little bumpy, but it’s talking about scenarios that I never faced before or ever thought about, so instead of criticising it maybe I should learn from it? Still, at the end characters started dropping like flies, it was supposed to be emotinal, but because of the above mentioned reasons it didn’t feel impactful. Nevertheless, I enjoyed it. The writer wrapped things up so well, that I’m looking forward of the next piece.

    Long wall of text over. I was expecting some high fantasy sort, with the bbeg criteria, but I didn’t know that a post-post-apocalyptic world goes this hard. While none of my negatives have any weight if you factor in the fact that this is probably a kid’s book.

    Shaw reminds me of Silksong…

    Detectors say that you are human, you use multiple languages, and you are a moderator, but it feels like a 101 AI response. It’s horrible that we’re living in an era where you need to be careful about this. You were probably trying to format it nice, but I’ve only read this phrasing from AI.

    But thanks for the answer, the home folder would probably be best. I don’t want to think about it after setting it up. All my downloads and docs are there. I also feel like the whole filesystem would take forever for me to unlock/boot.
