Yes.
Yes.
Thank you, will have to check the docs… I remeber someone told me it can’t import folder structure, but it’s been a while.
How does it store images? Does it make one huge pile and sort it by metadata and external db magic?
Most of the remaining space is used by porn obviously…
Well, I remembered it wrong, it’s only 100 TB written. Still quite a lot IMO. Reads are 300 TB+ though.
Yep, it’s a lot, but it should be right. Hope I did not misread the numbers. It runs quite write-heavy warehouse and cash register store database, running 24/7. I don’t have the drive by me now, but I’ll try to remember and post pic on Monday when I’m back to work.
Yeah, I get that. But since it’s (basically) XMPP, can’t it be used with such as Converse.js?
I wonder how does this differ from plain XMPP? There are tons of XMPP clients for every imaginable device, includong browser ones.
We have hundreds of Samsung 860/870 EVOs in operation at my work now. All of them are working reliably in both windows and linux machines running 24/7 for years. Some more heavily used (local postgres db) are probably not in the best condition, but still working. Speaking of mostly 250 GB ones.
We used to buy OCZ brand. First OCZs (Vertex 3) were amazing, some of them are still in work for 10+ years. Vertex 460 still great, again, some are still in use. But ever since Toshiba came in and old models were replaced with Trion models, it went to shit. Some of those models in the same environment started to fail (and I mean critical failures, like no OS after reboot or missing data etc.) after less than a year. Some of them still run in less critical PCs with light use, but do I trust the brand? Hell no.
I just checked one 250 GB OCZ Vertex 3 running for ~10 years with Crystaldisk. It has over 220 TB written, 300 TB read, and crystaldisk still shows roughly 40% lifetime left. It ran in badly wented, really dusty Dell Optiplex with Windows XP.
Edit: Personally I also have good experience with Crucial/Micron too, but that’s just based on home use for storing music, documents, steam games and not much else.
Thanks for the input. I wrote PDFs, but it might be possible to get another format. Check the other comment.
As for Pocketbook, which model do you have? Is there anything you dislike about it? Would you buy it again or seek alternative? Thank you.
OK, thank you for noting that. Never thought about it. My local library hands out free e-books of classic old literature so it might be available in other formats too. I grabbed some PDFs, because it was easiest to open in PC or android. Will check it out.
What e-reader should I buy, when I don’t want to use amazon (or similar) services to log in/buy/transfer books to the reader?
I have plenty of free old PDF books I simply want to copy there and be able to read them without ads and online bs.
I don’t need web browser, mp3 player, spotify, google translator or other such nonsense. I need simple controls, backlight (adjustable) to read at night and that’s basically it.
Thanks for any input.
Indeed, just check some PD charger specs, there are usually all the different volt/amp readings the charger can produce.
My cheap(ish) phone has ~30W charger too. It’s something like 2,5A/12V or 1,5A/18V, which is pretty common these days. I believe I’ve seen phones with up to 100W charging capability (not sure about longevity though).
Amarok -> Clementine -> Strawberry
Love me some Red Dwarf!
It depends on how expensive it is.
I remember when SSDs came out they were horribly expensive to the point no sane non-billionaire customer would even consider one. And look at the prices now.
My colleague likes it and use it all the time. He doesn’t really care about privacy and he often brings up cool features telegram has, like simple photo/video editor, shrink tool for media, newsfeed, etc. Which all seems quite polished and very usable. If only it wasn’t such a mess in its core.
Try Vikunja, it might tick the box for you.
