08:54 schestowitz-TR; random question

08:54 schestowitz-TR; say you have old ssd (2016)

08:54 schestowitz-TR; it has been used more than recommended (hi! ;-) )

08:54 schestowitz-TR; and you can keep it 60% unused or 40% unused in the storage sense

08:54 schestowitz-TR; would that make a difference for longevity

08:54 schestowitz-TR; ?

08:54 schestowitz-TR; I am trying to clear up space on it to extend the life

08:54 schestowitz-TR; though it mostly stores videos for processing

08:54 schestowitz-TR; I'm migrating those videos to "bubu" and external HDD at the moment

08:54 schestowitz-TR; *bubi

08:54 schestowitz-TR; side note: last night I rsynched the pi's /home across

08:54 schestowitz-TR; I wasnted to experient with new kernel for wlan1 and iptables

08:54 schestowitz-TR; changed my mind midway as it was not worth the risk of not being able to boot at all

08:54 schestowitz-TR; I am waitinf for a kernel update to maybe fix that,, I check almost every day

08:54 schestowitz-TR; from OFFICIAL repo

09:34 Techrights-sec; I'm not srure but I have read that underprovissioning the partitions, so that

09:34 Techrights-sec; one unused partition is large, may be a way to compensate for reduced capacity

09:37 schestowitz-TR; thanks.

09:37 schestowitz-TR; I just wondered about theresholds and I assume that storage type matters as well, depending on allocation and access

09:37 schestowitz-TR; algorith/smechanics

09:37 schestowitz-TR; vonick is now about 50% unused

09:37 schestowitz-TR; I want to tidy up backup routines

09:37 schestowitz-TR; btw, rianne now works with 3 computers

09:38 schestowitz-TR; I'm frustrated with the state of hardware put on offer these days

09:38 schestowitz-TR; ranted a bit in IRC

09:38 schestowitz-TR; we also talked about port types, DRM, and logevity

09:38 schestowitz-TR; things are not made to last

09:38 schestowitz-TR; and they call it "progress"

09:38 schestowitz-TR; OTA


10 AM, June 5

10:21 Techrights-sec; partition was the wrong word, unallocated space would be correct instead

10:25 schestowitz-TR; thanks, I did wonder about the use of that work/term

10:25 schestowitz-TR; as if, would unallocated space be of any difference?

10:25 schestowitz-TR; as I see it, unpartitioned blocks would not be available to the system at all, for redundancy

10:25 schestowitz-TR; assuming it allocates fixed sectors or range of sectors to each partition, strictly

10:25 schestowitz-TR; I am trying to organise things here this past week

10:25 schestowitz-TR; as it looks like as soon as next month I'll have more time

10:25 schestowitz-TR; I've not had this much spare time since decades ago

10:25 schestowitz-TR; maybe partly because news too is "slow"

10:25 schestowitz-TR; btew, no "other links" yet for today, based on the automated checker

10:32 schestowitz; today we cover upc, spwat, and strategy

10:32 schestowitz; I also explain we should focus on ideas/concept as much as on brands

10:32 schestowitz; it'll age better

10:32 schestowitz; draft

13:07 schestowitz-TR; perishging!!

13:07 schestowitz-TR; I will quote you

13:07 schestowitz-TR; ota

13:07 Techrights-sec; back

13:07 Techrights-sec; regarding the UPC, it is important to drive home the fact that 1) it does nto

13:07 Techrights-sec; exits, 2) it can no longer come into existence (reason), and 3) some lawyers

13:07 Techrights-sec; are actively lying about the UPC, perhas to the point of criminal fraud

16:52 schestowitz-TR; onto her existing machine

16:52 schestowitz-TR; like movied she collected many moons ago

16:52 schestowitz-TR; achievement unlocked

16:52 schestowitz-TR; managed to get the microphone, sp[eakers and headphones all going at once using one of the external

16:52 schestowitz-TR; speakers on a very old, non-HDMI monitor

16:52 schestowitz-TR; and fetched a ton of old music from the backup drive I had used to back up "bubi"

16:52 schestowitz-TR; turns out there is like 80GB of music, but some of that is music videos rather than music alone

16:53 schestowitz-TR; also, I unloaded rianne's old files from 10+ years ago
