When you normally delete a file, it doesn’t actually delete it, to save time it just marks the space as free, so any new files can be written into that part of your drive.

But the actual data just remains there until a new file is written to the storage.

SecureErase does the second part without making an actual file.

Normal delete:

File: 01010101 -> no file:01010101

Secure erase:

File: 01010101 -> no file:00000000

Really, It feels like I get it every 4 or 5 months

It could also have been a ghost listing, but yeah, I’m baffled they aren’t profitable

The switch is quite a bit thinner, but it’s running decade old arm silicon, so less heat to get rid of.

And you’d lose that slimness if you had to put the controls on another layer behind all the components.

They’d probably be pretty different for contempt of court, that’s usually just jail not prison

I do kinda get being cautious, don’t want to give him any grounds for appeal, but this is so blatant. He literally doxxed the prosecutor, how can they not hold him in contempt.

I’ve run an rx580 and am currently running a 7900xtx. I have very few issues. Every once in a while a few games will break when I update Mesa, but I’m on a rolling release distro, so that’d probably happen less often on something like Ubuntu. Honestly I probably have fewer issues on Linux than I did on windows.

Yeah, I nuked my windows drive about a year ago, there’s still some games I’d like to play that don’t work, but they’re few enough that I just don’t play them and don’t really mind.

No, it’s not, maybe actually listen to what people you disagree with are saying.

They’re all built on an open source base, but everything they add is proprietary

Huh, didn’t even realize Reagan was associated with the phrase

No, but I trust audits

I do agree they have a big tech feel that I don’t like, but everything I’ve seen indicates they’re trustworthy.

If you play ranked, which a lot of the people who get impacted by this don’t

Yeah, it’s insane to suggest a sound card instead of spending the time to fix it or just not release the Linux version.

Are you saying you don’t want a button that looks like a pinned tab that only lets you change between a handful of time-limited themes?

Partial good news, the FTC has an antitrust case against google, and it’s currently at trial.

Yep, glad I have my bridge blocked off from the internet, so they can’t force an update

Volvo Cars (VOLCARb.ST) said on Tuesday that it will end production of any remaining diesel models by early 2024 as it heads towards becoming an all-electric carmaker.

“In a few months from now, the last diesel-powered Volvo car will have been built, making Volvo Cars one of the first legacy car makers to take this step,” the Swedish company said in a statement.

Majority owned by China’s Geely (0175.HK), Volvo has committed to going fully electric by 2030.

While a majority of the cars Volvo sold in Europe were diesel as recently as 2019, in 2022 they made up just 8.9% of the Swedish carmaker’s sales.

In August 33% of Volvo’s sales were fully-electric or hybrid models. The company did not break out how many of the remaining 67% combustion-engine models were diesel and how many ran on petrol.

Sales of diesel models have declined rapidly in Europe since Volkswagen’s (VOWG_p.DE) emission-cheating scandal and carmakers have been gradually reducing the number of diesel models available in their model lineups. Advertisement · Scroll to continue

Diesel vehicles comprised more than 50% of Europe’s new car sales in 2015, but accounted for just over 14% of sales in July.
