I did a small research (pics included) and I've noticed there's something strange happening with recent WD hard drives.

For instance let's take a look at this 4TB WD Purple (WD43PURZ), the datasheet says it's CMR but if you look at the graph it behaves like SMR and TRIM is supported.
https://files.catbox.moe/xdudsc.jpg

Same applies to 4TB WD Blue/Red Plus models, all these have 256MB cache and 181 buffer zones (like WD Red EFAX) instead of typical 61 like normal CMR WD drive.
https://files.catbox.moe/htn2k3.jpg

Look at these 4TB drives - they all look like this SMR WD Red EFAX drive.
https://files.catbox.moe/cz46vl.jpg

And 6TB WD drives are also identical to this EFAX drive.
https://files.catbox.moe/nd55ho.jpg

So WD is lying again like they did when they released their first SMR Red. Avoid all 4-6TB models, unless it's enterprise class (Gold, Black, Ultrastar).

>Here's a post detailing the woes of USB on AMD https://lemmy.ca/post/18336941
yeah that guy is doing basically something you shouldn't do. like running a ZFS array over USB and expect it to be stable (he mentions right at the beginning that he had to put heatsinks on the USB-SATA bridge chip to prevent overheating).
He's also using a 5950X on a B350 board, that thing may not even have proper traces or enough VRMs to handle that chip, plus it's 3 generations later and wasn't even meant to be backwards compatible.

It's not an AMD problem. I've ran 4x external drives simultaneously over USB for a 2-3 day continuous read/write test with a B550 board and a 3600, and it had zero issues (other than speed).
The guy is just a retard who expects 50$ garbage setups to have enterprise resiliency. It's the slav bullshit as what OP does, expecting lowest end garbage drives to not be garbage.
>>
>>106479533
not sure if its truly an AMD thing but ive experienced that a lot with my PC. i got an nvme usb enclosure (i didnt know about pcie adapter boards at that point) for an ssd i had laying around and it kept disconnecting itself during writes, nevermind how speeds didnt even reach 100MB/s. all this time ive just blamed it on the cheapshit B450 assrock board i got.

>He's also using a 5950X on a B350 board, that thing may not even have proper traces or enough VRMs to handle that chip
Nigga what?
You speak like some pcbg autist
The chip shouldn't matter for USB stability, the CPU is also going to be power limited by the capabilities of the board but should not be unstable.
Unless this is another one of those magical AMD moments where AMD allows board vendors to let whatever chip be inserted no matter how broken the experience may be because muh am4 longevity promise.

Louis Rossman, from the handful of videos I've seen, has mentioned how much of a scam the data recovery services are in the US. I believe he has done some surface level at least data work.

There's obviously people out there with the know how, but I'm not sure if there's enough interest from the public at large for anyone to do content on it.

I suppose it's a cultural thing. I've always heard (on average across every person) Russian computer scientists were more willing to get down to the nuts and bolts tinkering on hardware and explorting theory in depth more than the westerners due to the lack of available compute time at universities and the lack of processing power that goes along with that.

You had to make the most of what you had and be very knowledgeable. I assume that translated over to the younger generation that followed in the 80s and 90s. Then the Yeltsin economy once again forced people to get by with what they had; more simply said, using your shitty PC and whatever's laying around.

We still LOAD programs, it now happens automatically behind the scenes when you run a program. INSTALLING, thoughever, is a process of unpacking program's resources, copying the files, configuring the program etc so that it can be run on the system.
>>106483740
>why call it side loading in the first place?
Because they consider it important to point out that what you're doing is wrong - you're installing a program through "side channels", not using "official channels".
>>106483819
>Words don't change reality
>It doesn't matter

Peak reddit nihilism. If it didn't matter, they wouldn't rename "installing programs" into "sideloading".

On a related note it's worth noting that we really take 4chan for granted sometimes. They could just take your PNG/4:4:4 JPG uploads and Nvjpeg encode them to a 4:2:0 JPG. Profit line would go up and other users would then save these abominations, upload them, and the whole incestous process would begin again. Like even though webp isn't supported yet nothing is stopping you from say using Guetzli.

It's almost as if bandwith isnt much of a problem in the age of free CDNs.

There really isn't much use in those current-thing temporary image formats that get replace all two years.
>>
>>106484554
Nah, you're getting this impression because you spend too much time on a mongolian basket weaving forum where samefagging became so rampant that 4chan decided to get rid of the IP counter. So it's really like a few samefags per thread opening/uploading images every once in a while.

That's is like taking a piss in an ocean of piss with the latter being what high traffic websites have to deal with. CDNs have made it more manageable not necessarily cheaper.

We could just not rely on these CDNs and P2P everything but then the cloudflare mafia would DDOS that too. You just can't have nice things because...

Is it worth getting a Silicone Valley job if they just work you to the bone?

Pratik Pandey was found face-down in the early hours of August 20 in Mountain View, California, inside the Microsoft campus, The Palo Alto Daily Post reported.

An initial report from the Santa Clara County Medical Examiner seen by the outlet indicated that the 35-year-old suffered a heart attack.

His uncle, Manoj Pandey, recalled Pratik as being a bright, hardworking young man but said he was known for staying at work well into the night.

Pandey told the outlet that the tech giant and other firms need to be aware of the dangers of overworking and helping employees deal with stress and pressure.

He told the Daily Post: 'That will probably save a life. It's a lot of pain for the family when a loved one passes away.'

that random css names is a sign of shitty (bloated) website
the other sign are shadow dom elements
and custom elements that reimplement normal elements with shitty custom javascript that breaks accessibility
and scroll hijacking
and custom smooth scroll
and infinite scroll
and virtual scroll elements which break mouse "lock to scroll" bindings and extensions like vimium, because the element has pseudo content inside which is replaced as one scrolls with their horrible implementation so for anything else that scrolls it seems to have nothing to scroll and justs scrolls by a tiny bit and stops
this is pure cancer, as with every custom element they think they reimplemented the custom behavior because they implemented arrow keys and page up, page down...
javascript was a mistake
and the so called controlled inputs that updates the state as you type, eats and loses the input you have typed, because you have typed it too fast for that retarded implementation...
the only sensible implementation is to wait until the user stops typing for some time, updating state on keydown or keyup is jeet tier
honestly why do they even write controlled inputs is a mystery to me, it doesn't do anything good but fucks everything up for the user

Hi /g/! I'm from /o/. I need a stereo for my new shitbox (picrel). It would be nice to get one that can run Android so that I can leave my phone at home. Can anyone suggest one?

Ideally, I want one that I can install an open source firmware on, but I don't see any stereos listed on LineageOS's device compatibility list (maybe there's another distro commonly used for radios?), and I would settle for mystery-meat OS as long as it doesn't require a Google account and I can install stuff from FDroid.

I've had a look around AliExpress, but the ads don't have any specific information about the OS they're running. I don't want to buy something and then find that I have to make a Google account to use it. I also don't want to buy something and then find that I can't install OSMAnd on it.

Running everything locally has always been the most efficient way to do anything, but that takes away power and control from companies.
