I’d say SSD or anything else non-spinning is a waste of money for most people’s needs. There are fringe cases, of course, like people who are editing gigantic video files or whatever.
I have a bunch of WD HDD’s that I shucked a while ago, they’ve been running non-stop for over 5 years last time I checked and I haven’t had any problems. That being said, I think Toshiba is usually considered “better”.
Either way, you shouldn’t rely on the reliability of any drive, SSD, HDD, or otherwise. If you have a backup then your worries go out the window and you can live life in peace!
Yeah, it only matters with things like electric shavers (although those are all battery operated now… so it actually doesn’t matter!), vacuum cleaners, etc. I know if you plug a 120v appliance into 230v it might kill it, but I guess if you plug a 230v appliance into 120v it just won’t turn on or will run slower.

This is easy with docker. 80 and 443 would be the “inside the container” ports, and you’d choose different “outside the container” ports to prevent conflicts.
For example:
1234:80
2345:443
Exactly how you type it in depends on if you’re using Docker Compose, etc.
If you’re exposing these to the internet by opening ports: don’t.
Use a reverse proxy. The reverse proxy gets 80 and 443 exposed to the internet and handles the security of serving your other services via the ports that you chose above.
The only downside to keeping everything in a lossless format is that over the years new formats emerge. mp3 used to be the only game in town, but now we have multitudes of lossy formats to pick from. By having your collection in mp3 format, you aren’t able to say “hey, this new format looks cool, let me switch to that”. By storing everything in a lossless format (FLAC), you can convert for mobile as you see fit.
Just flexibility and future proofing. Having/building a music library is very time consuming, so I’ve chosen to do it properly so there’s no work in the future.
Since my stuff is all FLAC it doesn’t matter what new lossy formats become popular 25 years from now. My music server will convert it on the fly to stream it to my phone.
For non-consumable stuff that’s really great. For food items I don’t want a resealable sticker. There’s a benefit to being tamper evident in those cases. It’d be nice if they were easy-peel and not restickable. That’d be dope!
I take over the counter stuff year-round. Rhinocourt nasal spray keeps everything open and drained, and Allegra does a decent job with the rest. I used to use Claritin, but Allegra seems to work better.
I’m also concerned that I’m seeing the baby as a problem instead of a… Source of joy?
Since your kid isn’t born yet, there’s not really much joy you can get from them. Even when they’re very very young they don’t give you any smiles or do anything funny. The “joy” comes later, and boy it’s worth it, at least for me.
I blew through the $5 plan in a short amount of time. I’m a curious person, I guess! I really like it though so decided $120/year was worth it for unlimited.
Compared to DDG (Bing) the search results are really good. When using DDG I would frequently revert to Google, but not with Kagi.
Yeah, that would be ideal. In the words of OutKast:
Yuh
Uh-huh
Even the Sun goes down, heroes eventually die
Horoscopes often lie
And sometimes, “Y”
Nothing is for sure, nothing is for certain
Nothing lasts forever, but until they close the curtain
(Y’all know)

I would expect photos uploaded to enterprise type services (Google, Amazon, etc) to be stored for 30+ years, but even Imgur went through a “cleanup” where photos not linked to an account were deleted. It’s sort of the same here, because we don’t have a tool to tell us which photos were uploaded by our users, and which ones are federated. I DO think that info is in the database, it’s just a lack of tools at the moment.
The only way for a user to even find the photos they uploaded is to scroll back through their post history, or keep a log of the URLs as they upload them.
So, I got excited, and didn’t anticipate well how profound the knot would sit in the handle. The knot is glued in with silicone (maybe a little bit too much), and I would like to rescue both knot and handle without damage....
I’ve experienced this once before, putting to rest my disbelief of similar stories. The one I had problems with had too much silicone, so it was all up around the sides, etc.
I don’t remember how I got it out, but I think twisting while pulling helped.
