  • That’s because the drive was written to its limits; the defrag runs a TRIM command that safely releases and resets empty sectors. Random reads and sequential reads /on clean drives that are regularly TRIMmed/ are within random variance of each other.

    Source: ran large scale data collection for a data centre when SSDs were relatively new to the company so focused a lot on it, plus lots of data from various sectors since.

    Max and cheese has two ingredients. Good, quality cheese melted into fresh macaroni.

    I challenge anyone to dislike that, with a good fresh salad (I like a chopped salad with a drizzle of oil and balsamic with a sprinkle of salt). The great thing is - there’s a cheese for everyone (except lactose intolerant, and what a shame for them) so this works on so many levels.



  • I do it regularly… I particularly like 4.

    In all seriousness, I use it when I need to time something - 32 on one hand means one minute (approximately) with two rotations. I started when trying to determine if my daughter was asleep, waiting for a minute after she’d last moved or talked, and I didn’t want a screen or light or noise to wake her (she’s always been hard to get to sleep).

    So - yeah it’s a tiny bit tricky to do some combos, but no more than touch typing.






  • I’m going to briefly explain why I downvoted… this (I feel) is an unhelpful comment that doesn’t explain anything. You say, “[if] you’re comfortable support a broken-by-design network, do it.”, but you don’t explain why it’s a broken-by-design network.

    I’ll say - I agree with you, but the comment doesn’t actually enhance the conversation and comes off as abrasive and unhelpful. If I’m looking for information, I’d rather be given education (Even if it’s just a, “Go here for why you don’t do that!”), not just a, “Don’t do it” with no assistance and help for how to do it right.






  • Hey, you’ve found what’s good for you :) I did sample the Oban and it was nice, but not at the price they were hawking it at. My current overall favourite is probably a tossup between the Laphroaig Cairdeas I got in 2017 (I think? I’m a bit fuzzy) and a 12-year non-chill-filtered Aberlour… which are such different taste profiles as to be practically incomparable :D Everyone has different tastes, so… going back to the thread starter, let’s celebrate different tastes.
