ZFS is fantastic and it can indeed restore files that have been encrypted as long as you have an earlier snapshot.

However, it would not have helped in this scenario. In fact, it might have actually made recovery efforts much more difficult.

It could have helped by automatically sending incremental snapshots to a secondary drive, which you could then have restored the original drive from. However, this would have required the foresight to set that up in the first place. This process also would not have been quick; you would need to copy all of the data back just like any other complete drive restoration.

I mean yes, please vote people.

However the supreme court is stacked because Bitch McConnell is a piece of shit.

It translates to this meme template.

Uhm… Yes. Like a lot.

Satisfactory isn’t bad either, but factorio wins in my book.

Plus Biden attempted to block any more aid for Israel and the Republicans rammed it through anyway.

Trump has 91 felony allegations across 4 different state and federal cases against him right now. Many of which are directly related to him trying to overthrow our democracy.

Burn him to the ground; I don’t care about his legacy as a president. He was a shitty one anyway and was never actually elected by popular vote.

I would be appalled if he was pardoned, and I’m already rather annoyed at the current state of the prosecution taking this long.

Retracted. I was sleepy and apparently pissy this morning. I deserve my downvotes.

That’s… Exactly what I was talking about. Master of the content.

I am fully aware that the windows search hides things that you are actually searching for. Particularly if they are system preference apps, and it always goes to bing first regardless.

Also, I bailed as well. I use windows for work and school, otherwise I’m on linux.

They want you to use the search instead of a functional interface. That’s why they keep making the interface worse.

It lets them spy on you through bing, allows them to fill the results with ads, and lets them hide system applications unless you know exactly how to find them.

It’s also them gearing up towards funneling the entire UX through copilot for largely the same reasons.

The entire goal is to flip the operating system from the slave of the user to the master of the content.

I mean… Yes? I hate this idea and Roku will lose me as a customer over this, but yes they are specifically targeting screensavers. Idle time is ad time to these people.

You need 0° to chill properly though.

Can you name your country? Because, uh… No. If that actually exists where you live though, then that’s awesome. We should have that here.

My point was that it’s not necessary, and the practice increases the likelihood that the entire bin will be thrown out because some consumer didn’t peel them off. Then the company gets to say “we told them to do it, it’s not our fault!”

I do peel these off, but I also think that they are irritating and actively hinder the problem at hand.

Nah, get the fuck outta here with that bullshit.

Ignoring the fact that hardly any plastic is actually recyclable in the first place, your argument is that conscious consumers should accept additional responsibilities on the off chance that it MIGHT actually get recycled?

We figured out how to print on basically any surface a long time ago. How about we hold companies to a standard of responsible packaging, instead of yet again passing the buck to the end user.

Because Tesla was fixing significant safety issues without reporting it to the NHTSA in a way that they could track the problems and source of the issue. The two of them got into a pissing match, and the result is that now all OTA’s are recalls. After this, the media realized that “recall” generates more views than “OTA”, and here we are.

Isn’t that because it can desync the actual keyfob?

Nvm… Clicked the link. That’s exactly why you shouldn’t do that.

Don’t forget paperclips, string, and aerosol cans. Hell, we should probably just ban wire altogether.

Because “the youngest cohort falls for online scams more than the oldest cohort” means the same thing but communicates far less information.

Also they just don’t staff the regular check out lines, so your choice is to leave and go to another store.
