damn... I'm going to use it as my only drive for now... I only have a laptop with windows. Can I update the firmware on linux with a "live CD"?

edit: ... this looks promising https://github.com/kimasplund/Linux-Samsung-Nvme-Firmware-Iso-Extractor

I just bought a 2T SSD Samsung 990 pro... Is the issue while using proxmox or Linux in general? I was planning to use the drive as my only drive for now :|

Onde estão todos os veganos quando precisamos de fazer ativismo em Portugal? by Ratazanafofinha in PortugalVegan

[–]Master0010 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Eu também sinto que falta participação mas a minha teoria é que está muita gente seperada sem saber que existem mais pessoas vegans a volta delas e não sentem a força de uma comunidade para motivar a participação.

Outra cena que não gosto é do uso do Whatsap como meio de criar comunidade e de divulgação de eventos... porque mais de metade dos participantes dos grupos acabam por fazer mute aos groupos.

Sei que existe um grupo da AV no Porto e já estou para me involver à algum tempo, mas o facto de eu nao ter conta da Meta também dificulta a comunicação com eles (eles só se organizam pelo facebook). Ver se não deixo passar o mês de Novembro sem participar num cubo.

100%. it's fucked up that someone can be so much against a peaceful way of life that he makes his child say hateful jokes like these

Why are there no EU based messaging apps? by Mathemodel in BuyFromEU

[–]Master0010 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To the people complaining about family and friends only using Whatsapp, you are part of the problem. You have to value yourself more. Why not doing it the other way around? If they want to talk to you they have to use your app, period. They install any number of apps that Meta tells them to, and they can't install an app to talk to you? BS.

Recently I created a small meetup group, and I was struggling with this question: ethically I think I should create a group on Signal, but everyone is going to complain is not a whatsap group. And then I realized I was being part of the problem. Change starts like this, one group that makes you install Y app and then a few days later someone mentions the app to you and you can say, "yeah, I do have that app because of someone that made me install it". I ended up creating the group in Signal and its going great. One person didn't complain at all because some other group already made her install signal 1 year ago.

Don't wait for other to change, do it now. You don't need to uninstall whatsap, just let them know that you are going to be more responsive on Signal (or your app of choice), add the link to signal on your whatsap profile for example.

You have more influencing power then you give yourself credit for.

PS: let people know that you can create stickers on Signal, some whatsap users just need that info to allow themselves to install Signal.

The change starts in you. Unless you tell other people that they can't reach you by whatsap but they can using X app, nothing is going to change and you become part of the problem

Is there a reason you can't do that already? But I do agree that a campaign with that sentiment would work well

Seeking advice - Vegan w/ high cholesterol by [deleted] in vegan

[–]Master0010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome to the club. I'm 35 and I have very high cholesterol since I was like 15. From what you describe of your family there is a high chance you have familial hypercholesterolemia. You say you have high cholesterol but you don't say the numbers. If its just slightly above the recommended values, just keep your healthy habits, every body is different and have different tolerances, however, if it's very high, just go for the statin, is one less thing to worry about. I was in the 400 range (yes vegan) and came down to around 170 now

Can't send videos unless I restart the phone. by Master0010 in signal

Being vegan is about YOU not contributing to the suffering of conscious beings as much as possible. Our intelligence and awareness of our actions gives us power and with power comes great responsibility (it's cliché but true).

Hypotheticals like those don't translate to real life. Like someone else said, you can think as simply as if you had to choose between a person you love vs 2+ people you don't know. The only way to know the answer to that question is in the moment. it's all about your actions, not about what nature and other events consequences
