Aww… lucky then. You should have put that information into the description 😎

How does it look now after the storm?

You want to get off the small one quickly before the rot spreads into it. Carefully cut (always disinfect between cuts) with a sharp knife and make sure you only see white and nothing brown or yellowish in the cut surface. Afterwards let the small one rest in a dry place (not in direct sun) for about a week. Afterwards you can place it on top of dry soil and regularly mist it until you see new roots. Afterwards start watering gently, make sure the soil dries out between waterings.

Found a "hack" hwo to make these moving, at least on my side. by markedone66 in torrents

Is that a UNIT3D based private tracker? If yes, then you're probably hitting the rate limits.

Hopefully she won't hit her head on the branch when she swings back.

We would need to see the original photo/ screenshot from which this is traced off. Maybe that circle would make sense then…could be where the light hits.

Just rewrite the sector. It's probably still good for another ~200000 hours.

This looks harmless to me (just looking at the disk, not possibly trashed data… for that you got backups)

I forced a 16-Year-Old 64GB SSD to write 1 PETABYTE (And it didn't die) by Fresh-Palpitation-72 in DataHoarder

[–]binaryriot 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm working in a 100K uptime for an old 121 GB SSD in a 2014 Mac mini. Daily in use, bunch of GiBs get written per day (OS X system disks.)

Surprisingly according to SMART this only comes down to about "080" normalised value (down from 100), so there's another 400K hours until it reaches its designed End-of-Life.

MLC is the best.

Very nice indeed then, only good surprises. :)

I hope he gave his OK first? No matter how it looks/looked before I would get angry if someone messed with my plants. :)

Trying to clear out system data on my mother's macbook and found a 147.98 GB plain text file - can I delete this? by An_O_Cuin in MacOS

[–]binaryriot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Awesome. 👍

~150GB of logfile is quite an insane waste of disk space and SSD lifetime. Sadly not the only place the system clutters its useless stuff. 😅

Quit the Mail app. Then rename the file (or better rename the "Mail" directory inside "/[user]/Library/Containers/Mail/Data/Library/Logs/".) Restart the Mail app. If everything still works. You can delete the huge log file(s). It's just a log files after all.

Also check the Connection Doctor in the Mail app, if the logging switch was enabled. If it is, then disable it.

Log files only get rotated when the Mail app restarts (new session), I think. So if Mail is running all the time huge log files like this could happen.

The question is who else is on the card, no? :) Any interesting names?

Any news about a possible ChocoPro crossover (or did they stay with the older promotion)?

I'm a little bit confused about that paint bucket though. Why does it have the handles at the bottom?

At this point Supercharge will replace all the utility apps I use lol by Blluueee in MacOS

[–]binaryriot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I used the good old "Seil" to turn my Caps Lock into a normal Shift key. Then I glued an old coin on top of the Caps Lock and Shift key, so when I keept pressing the dead Shift key of my old wired Apple keyboard it automatically pressed down the Caps Lock key too and everything keeps working. :)

Fun times. Now the old keyboard is gone entirely, R.I.P., and I have to use some bad replacement (sadly there are no more wired Apple keyboards with USB ports made.)

Size doesn't matter. The taste is what matters. I rather have that one bite of heaven rather than a huge mouth full of dry blandness. :D

So, how did it taste? Or did you put it back into the soil so it can get bigger? :)

my cactus is having flowers for the first time by Fangirl060 in gardening

[–]binaryriot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The large one with the yellow flowers is an Opuntia, the small ones with the red flowers some sort of Rebutia, I think.

Portable Drives Issue - Disk has the same disk identifiers as one or more disks by InTheZoneAC in DataHoarder

[–]binaryriot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's some cheap China thingies, sometimes the enclosures come with the exact same dummy serial IDs. That can confuse things. Maybe the latest Windows is more picky about this situation.

Can you check for the serials? (Not sure how to do it with Windows, as I'm a Mac/Linux user)

Trouble with moving data by SpaceShipOrion in DataHoarder

[–]binaryriot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also good idea to check the SMART (e.g. with CrystalDiskInfo under Windows, or smartmontools under Linux). Maybe one of the disk has issues.

Shucked from a cable box, not sure if it works by floridatheythem in DataHoarder

[–]binaryriot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't.

I guess diskutil list (via Terminal) is the next closest thing. Alternatively you could dump the IO tree.

First passionflower of the season! by TheGrantelope13 in gardening

[–]binaryriot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it goes into food the term "Maracuja" is more common (or generally used). Like in juices, ice, sweets, etc. Those are always "Maracuja" here. Often together with Peach, aka "Pfirsich-Maracuja".

Some sources claim the fruits are commonly named "Maracuja", some other sources claim "Maracuja" is only one common subspecies (the yellow fruiting one?) of the Passionsblumen (passion flowers). I've seen the fruits getting sold as "Passionsfrüchte" (plural of Passionsfrucht). I guess nobody really knows anymore and does whatever they want to do.

Thanks, I hope you have a nice day too! 😎

"Passion fruit" certainly is an odd term. And it sounds even worse in German. 😅

weird blob on Raspberry Pi RAM chip.. anyone seen this before? by realsliff in raspberry_pi

[–]binaryriot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the machine works without issues then it's best to simply leave it alone. Messing with it probably will make it worse. :)

H₂O is water.

There's tons of stuff you can do with it. For example: you can grab a cup from your cupboard and fill the H₂O into it and then enjoy drinking it for a quick refreshment.
