That rain smell, I remember being happy when my mom allowed me to play in the rain.

Technology@lemmy.world•Unpowered SSD endurance investigation finds severe data loss and performance issuesEnglish
8·8 months agoDepends on the threat model and how long do you need the data.
Worked on a place long ago, that anything they needed to save offline from more than a few decades where stored in microfilm, the expectancy there where they would last 80 to 100 years.
Anything else was pretty much tape.
You also take in account the technology avaiability. The more complex is to use, harder will it be to reproduce in the future. Even with tapes, you might want to copy the data to another tape/recorder every decade or two, to keep it on par with the technology.
A friend suggested me Sailfish OS, sadly it only supports Xperia, and Sony does not make phones that attend the frequency where I live.
My next “phone” will be a pocket computer with a data chip. For the last 20 years, I only received phone calls from solicitors/scammers.
If you don’t mind old hardware, get it refurbished from Amazon. You can get pixel 7 for 400 CAD, sometimes less. Amazon quality control is better than ebay, so was the support.
My biggest problem is with the camera of all mobiles, the photo looks good because there is a lot of processing in the background, and it becomes very apparent how the hardware is bad when you take pictures with an aftermarket OS.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Google is preparing to let you run Linux apps on Android, just like Chrome OS
4·1 year agoUnless there is a x86 to ARM translation layer on Linux that I’m not aware of?

It appears Valve is working on Proton for arm64, I was wondering if this is to attend the mobile market, a new Index or maybe a smaller Steam Deck.


The author surely likes that the mascot is a dog. It feels more of a read and analysis of the terms of use than a deep dive of the tool but it was a good reading and I liked the suggestions.
I also liked the “reminder”.
Edit: you should share this in some community as a post, every time I see this kind of website (pure content no-nonsense) it is shared is in the comments. 15 years ago this kind of stuff was easy to find, but nowadays, I only see them in comment sections. Even the search engine recommended around here would list a bunch of junk in the first pages.
