Yum, microplastics!
Haha reminds me of Death Star Repairmen, classic fan film
Agreed, where I was growing up in the U.S. we had a bunch of regional parts manufacturers and Boeing contracts were always prized My dad was a union guy working at one of those factories for a while before it got bought out by a larger multinational corp. AFAIK they ended up shifting a lot of that manufacturing out of the U.S. into Mexico while downsizing the U.S. operations. That’s kind of how it goes in that industry :/
Wow that’s a useful list of things they accept for recycling. It’s a total PITA to recycle anything electronics related in my city especially stuff like computers & hard drives let alone cables. That may end up getting me inside a Staples more often than once every year or two so maybe their plan is going to work.
Yup, Swiss Army Man was pretty unhinged in the best way possible LOL. The fact that Radcliffe was in it, playing a flatulent dead guy no less, made me realize he’s game to play just about any role that gets him out of the Harry Potter typecast.
Talk to families of unjustified imprisoned people or to the people itself.
Do you actually know & speak to people in El Salvador? Pretty much everyone I know there (family/friends) are ecstatic that there are no more gang members running around unchecked. The country is safer now then it has been in years.
Nothing is perfect of course, poverty is still a major issue, but not having to deal with gang members every time you ride the bus, go out shopping, even just drive around, it’s a huge deal over there.
Sure I get what you’re saying but for most people there it’s been a positive development.
But since he just imprisoned everyone and their relatives, its only a temporary fix – unless he wants to imprison them for life.
True… to be honest I suspect those people are imprisoned for life. No one expects gang members to be let out of prison while Bukele is still running the country, that’s going to be something that gets revisited when/if he’s out of office. It’s a massive human rights issue but at least for now the majority of Salvadorans consider it a net positive.
The funny thing is that this article is about bitcoin & most Salvadorans don’t particularly care about that at all, it’s just kind of a headline that isn’t going to win/lose Bukele any support in the short term at least.
LOL it almost sounds like they did that on purpose, that light could be configured to stay on longer but someone at your office doesn’t want that.
That’s annoying… even doing a Startup Repair with the Windows 11 USB doesn’t repair it and get it starting up? Thinking on a normal install all this should have already worked, makes me wonder if Bitlocker is somehow a culprit here.
But I guess worst case is to back up your data, do a fresh install of Windows 11, restore your data/re-install applications & move on. At some point that’s going to end up being faster than troubleshooting failed cloning attempts.
That sort of looks right, did the old SSD have the same configuration? According to that partition list you also have an extra partition, maybe a Lenovo recovery/repair partition or something bitlocker related. Your old SSD probably has p1 or p2 a bootable.
Overall you don’t need to do it this way but what I’d do roughly speaking…
PS - Probably not what you want but worst case you can do a clean install of Windows 11 & then manually copy over your data (back up first!). Maybe not ideal but at least you’ll have a fresh install to work with.
What I’d do is double-check which partition is marked as bootable/active on the old SSD, then after cloning make sure the new SSD is configured the same. On a Windows 10/11 boot USB you can usually go into the command line & run diskpart to do those things, alternatively you do the same in Linux if you’re already using that instead.
I don’t think cloning disks would necessarily mark any partitions as bootable so that’s an extra step you may need to do.
Clonezilla typically works well enough when you’re doing the entire drive though I’ve never needed to tinker with bitlocker so can’t say if that changes things.
That ancient tool isn’t for SSDs. But if you want OP’s SSD to die quicker it’s a good suggestion :P
Citi Double Cash 2% for most purchases
Citi Custom Cash for specific 5% categories I can target, though in practice I usually use it for groceries
Discover Cash Back / Chase Freedom Flex for the rotating 5% categories
Personally I don’t travel enough to bother with travel rewards cards but maybe that’s an option for other people.
PS - I’ve found that Discover usually has higher discounted gift cards if you wind up using your cash back towards that, sometimes it works out better than just doing cash back against your balance.
But the benefits of sending replicas is WAY larger than possibly losing the link.
I thought that at first too but I got the impression that the replicas aren’t self operating - Basically they “sleep” the entire time their human host isn’t plugged into it. The families on earth must spend a lot of time alone without the astronauts but at least their replica allows them to visit more frequently, I guess? That also implies the space station needs to be staffed 24/7 for the most part hence why the humans are up there.
Also agree with /u/[email protected] this episode didn’t really need all the replica tech stuff, I get the feeling the writers were trying to set up some sort of body switch romance gone wrong & this is what they ended up with.
Same here, I always liked Star Trek but kind of figured it was mainly for nostalgia nowadays until Discovery came along & all this new Trek related stuff started appearing.
With Discovery the time jump stuff was a bit of a stretch but I got used to it so it wasn’t a big deal. Plus the individual episodes were done well IMO. My only gripe with the show is that it felt like they took the storyline maybe too seriously at times.
I wouldn’t mind that it kept going a few more seasons but I’m happy that they’re getting one last season & can use that to wrap things up hopefully.

Not dead, just a bit quiet. Maybe just a lot of lurkers at the moment? It’s actually the most active one in the Lemmy/Kbin fediverse.
I’m still new so for now I subbed to all the personal finance communities. From what I found (listed in order of most recent activity):
Wonder if he was ever really “missing” to begin with. Maybe the family was able to claim life insurance money, or there was some other reason he needed to disappear. Then after 30 years there was no point keeping it up so he was mysteriously found with no explanation.
