I use crush as coding agent but removed the blocked commands because I also do a lot of system administration. Love it. I use 8 USD in 7 weeks and use it quiet extensively for all sorts of things, programming, system administration, google search replacement, investments, you name it.

However since I switched to wayland/sway I also use zathura because cut & paste works. Mupdf is an X application but I still use it to search large pdfs. But there is also this plugin but I did not try hard enough to get it running: https://github.com/pwmt/zathura-pdf-mupdf. Under xorg worked cut & paste with mupdf.

Most of the time two big HDDs or SSDs in RAID 1 is sufficient.

All devices failed within 6 months on barely used systems. Find some smart data here:

<https://thomas.glanzmann.de/samsung/>

The pattern is always the same: I have them configured in a raid 1. Once a month debian does a raid check. During the raid check Debian reads all data from both devices. I get uncorrectable read errors. I no longer use Samsung SSDs and replaced them them with SSDSC2KB076T8, Micron SSDs and KC3000 Kingston NVMes. No failures since then. In 2021 I told a friend of mine about the issue. He also had a 870 EVO, issued a dd if=/dev/sdX of=/dev/null bs=8M and guess what, he got uncorrectable read errors. Due to running them in RAID 1 I caught the issue early and I had no data loss or downtime because the Linux software raid compensated for the bad hardware. However I replaced them in a hurry because I no longer trust Samsung SSDs. As you can see from the smart log they're barely used. Less than 4 months in service and 10 TB written. I also got uncorrectable read errors when evacuating data from the devices.

At some point I stopped, but I need to get back to it. I also used a headspace sleep meditation often. Now that you mentioned the pooch palace sleep story, I searched for it everywhere but did not find it. Where can I get it?
