6am me used to disagree, too. Now I kind of miss it.

Cats are liquid.
If you care about your data, the second thing to demand is ECC. That tends to narrow all the trash out of the choices, so it’ll be easier.
The first thing is backups. The first thing is always backups. With checksums. Preferably encrypted and at rest.
Neovim and scp. I should clearly test some things.

cats@lemmy.world•Anybody else have a cat that will just stare at them? What does he want from me?
5·5 months agoGeckos just radiate it, like an aura, which is why they stick to just about anything.
Stretching really is all the physical exercise a cat needs iirc. Chasing something keeps the brain active, though. Maybe some of that later.
In my experience it’s also very very hard to wear out an SSD. It’s limited, but mostly the limit is very very far away. I treat those warnings as largely fud. Most common failure more seems to be that the controller in the drive dies for some reason and the drive just goes completely dead and never gets detected again. There won’t be warnings from any smart values either.
Or the drive is just replaced with a bigger faster one, maybe on a different bus/connector or something, and forgotten in a drawer or a box somewhere.
Naturally it’s still worth trying to enable trim and limit writes if there’s no downside. It can only help in case the drive does get an exceptionally long service life. But I’d say use it while it’s still useful and keep fresh and verified backups.

Kind of funny seeing a black cat being literally named snow.
She’s awesome.
