I get the joke but some folks won’t get it. OP should explain the joke for those folks who missed it

Aileen Wuornos

That’s actually really clever. Triggering an anger response with an urgency to act will reduce the victim’s critical thinking and make the phishing attack more likely to succeed.

It also looks like they’ll be the right age for WW3 deployment

That’s a stretch

How do pickleball balls fit into this? They’ve got holes in them, is this something I need to look out for?

How do you have the SAS drive connected to your Mint 22 box (what exact adapter/controller)? Is it going through a real SAS HBA (LSI/Broadcom-style, IT/HBA mode), or through a RAID controller / USB-SAS bridge / “virtual” adapter?

Reason I’m asking: there are basically two connection paths:

• True HBA/passthrough: Linux gets direct SCSI access (you’ll see a /dev/sgX for the disk) and you can usually low-level reformat it back to 512-byte logical blocks (e.g., from 520/528).
• RAID/USB/translation layer: the controller hides or emulates the SCSI commands, so tools like sg_format often can’t issue the low-level format needed to switch the sector size. That might be why the disk is visible in the disks app but not in gparted.

Given the screen shots I believe it’s the later. Can someone smarter than me confirm?

USB enclosures for SAS drives are available

I’m confident this is recoverable. Can you throw the failing drive into a USB enclosure? It might be easier to reformat the drive in the OS you’re most familiar with.

And don’t feel bad about breaking things, that’s the best way to learn! I’ve been breaking things long before ChatGPT came along.

Turn off all of the switches, go into the room with the bulb, smash the bulb, then the correct answer is none of the switches control the bulb. #Science

That’s ignoring the fact that billionaires are already lobbying governments to pay less in taxes. If nothing else, a billionaire lobbying to pay more in taxes would highlight the hypocrisy of the current system and expose the existing corruption.

Can you expand on this? I don’t understand your argument

The best way a billionaire could spend their money is to lobby politicians to tax the rich.

Awww man, I thought that was corn :(

The missile probably has better range too

I sometimes eat raw pasta when I’m cooking pasta and I’m impatiently checking if it’s ready after 2 minutes

Swoosh 🤦‍♂️ thank you

This is a silly take. It’s an open source project from a non profit creating a new browser option

I agree, I choose the option that gives me the best experience. That is normally an unofficial option. For instance, I want to choose the tv shows accessible for my daughter. I want her to have access to tv shows from all over the world. There is no official service that offers that.

That explains why Trump is so hostile towards Hillary
