idk why, but everytime I try archinstall it breaks in one way or another. I’m sure it works perfectly well for everyone else, I’m just cursed

note: not seeking advice, I prefer my manually installed FDE + secureboot EFISTUB setup anyways

I admire your dedication, but you really could’ve just done this

…for a few hours, until you need water. And food. And shelter.

Please don’t tell me that you think people living in the woods by themselves because our extremely advanced modern society with practically limitless resources compared to nearly all of history can’t provide basic needs like that for everyone participating in it is a-okay.

Exactly, automation shouldn’t kick some people out of jobs and leave others just as overworked as before, it should automate things that don’t absolutely need humans and just decrease the workload of (currently) irreplaceable people so that more people can work as much as one did before and still get the same salary.

Hell, unemployment as a whole should not exist in the modern era. If there’s “too few jobs”, decrease working hours and increase wages accordingly so the total monthly/yearly/whatever pay is the same. And if there just physically aren’t enough resources to accomodate so many people having decent salaries (which is absolutely not the case right now), then we should start talking about overpopulation.

I know right, like give me womanpages I’d read those

finally, the Rödhaj

Look, I’m sorry but I have better things to do than arguing about why putting blobs of solder on your HDD’s contacts isn’t a good idea. I’m not gonna stop you, but I don’t think you’ve convinced anyone.

The contacts are gold, which definitely doesn’t oxidize any more than solder considering it, y’know, doesn’t oxidize in air at all ever. The solder doesn’t really add any contact surface area, and even if it did, it makes no difference for digital signals. “Better conductivity” doesn’t improve digital sigs either. And why would the contacts ever disconnect?

I can’t confirm the last paragraph, but HDD manufacturers could just move the PCB closer to the chassis and/or make the contacts’ springs a bit stiffer to achieve the exact same thing, which is slightly more pressure between the contacts. That’s literally all you’re getting here.

DON’T DO THIS, at best it’ll do nothing and at worst (muuch more likely) you’ll short and kill your HDD.

The whole point of contacts is that they aren’t soldered, the transmit current by physical contact. There’s a matching pair on the HDD chassis:

I don’t want them to know anything that isn’t completely necessary, and even that should be wiped as soon as it’s no longer relevant. Why should I be okay with corps recording all of my online behavior and preferences just so they can sell that info for a bit of extra profit?

Yeah you’re right, I just felt the need to point out that API calls are not really comparable to serving a full website.

The thing is that when you interact with the remote server directly it’s not 10 api calls, it’s 10 full-blown HTML webpages that have to be served to you, which are way bigger than REST API calls.

None, selfhosted is the way.
