Though not every fail state is going to show up. If you start seeing weird intermittent behaviour from a drive, for goodness sake find a way to back it up immediately.

My mum’s new nuc started having some issues, SMART showed perfect drive health. After trying a few things to diagnose, I rebooted to run memtest and check for bad ram, and that was the last time it ever booted into windows. Controller or something on the nvme ssd died. Far too expensive to try and repair for data recovery. Thankfully had a… Somewhat recent backup. Not as recent as we would have liked.

Holy hell, that’s cheap. I’ll have to look into grabbing one to play around with.

I’ve said it for years on Reddit and I will continue saying it here on lemmy. I miss Pebble.

I use a galaxy watch 4 now but while it can do some more thing it still doesn’t fully match the functionality of my pebble time. So many stupid software limitations that shouldn’t exist.

If the battery hadn’t degraded I’d still be using it.

I’ve looked at fossil multiple times and they’ve never matched the functionality I need. No current watches really do.

Fucks up what I expect the arrow keys to do in Excel is what.

Yeah, I use their OBS version since I had a few issues with OBS and the normal one. My cat likes to sleep on my computer and I needed another camera to point at her when streaming… And then I realised I didn’t need to buy one because I had old phones with good cameras in my desk drawer. Just got a cheap mount to hold my old xiaomi mi 9 SE. Looks fantastic, works well.

Not at the moment. I would love to run lineageOS, etc, but I keep buying phones they don’t support, and at this stage, most of the things I used to need rooting for are no longer as necessary for me.
