@bardmoss @[email protected] @[email protected] I don't want to force her into daylight. I just want to get at least some sleep at night ๐Ÿ˜…

@chickenf622 The problem is that she keeps us up at night and I fall asleep during my work day. She's been here two weeks now.

Help, I think my cat is a vampire

Luna came to us because her previous owner passed away. She didn't eat at all before a trip to the vet, but she is generally healthy.

She hides all day every day until sunset. That's the only time she will eat. She even approaches us for cuddles and playtime, but only at night. All night. We really can't sleep. At sunrise, she disappears in fear as if she forgot who we are.

Any tips on getting her used to daylight? ๐Ÿ˜ช

Is there anything that could help me memorise the argument order of the ln command?

I'll take anything from little helper phrases over shell extensions to replacements written in Rust. I only use the command occasionally, but I need a fool-proof solution. Do you have any tricks to get it right?

@pavel @techsupport @aliceif It wasn't lying. Turns out the drive was fine, actually! It seems like the problem was caused by a dusty M.2 slot.

@BananaTrifleViolin You are a genius. It's been ten days now and the drive has been working flawlessly.

โ˜๐Ÿป Clean your M.2 slots, everyone.

PNY's own "SSD Toolbox" reports 100% SSD Life (whatever that means) and no available firmware updates. I can also "optimizate" my SSD here, which is funny.

@aliceif @techsupport It's just always the same entry saying something like "command completed successfully"

@BananaTrifleViolin Good idea. The M.2 slot was left unpopulated for years before I added this drive. It's possible that some dust got in there causing a connection issue.

I re-seated it and wiggled it around a bit to ensure any dust between the contacts got out of the way. It's being properly recognised now, but we'll see for how long.

@aliceif @techsupport I have never seen SMART report an actual problem in a useful way, and also not this time. The drive claims it's fine.

Nevermind, Linux also doesn't like it now. I guess it's faulty. *sigh*

I don't think it's fake. I got it from a local shop which I usually trust.

Has anyone ever had this issue with NVMe SSDs?

"A device which does not exist was specified."

Is this a hardware defect? The drive (PNY CS3140 1TB) is only about 5 weeks old. It seems to fix itself after a couple of reboots, but it's very annoying. Linux doesn't seem to have any issues with it yet.

Update: Solved by re-seating the drive in the slot: https://ma.fellr.net/users/fell/statuses/113883457441026891

@absGeekNZ This sounds like it would absolutely work from a psychological perspective, but my wife would probably kill me.

Can I charge a 19V laptop from multiple USB ports?

My laptop's charger is rated at 19V 2.1A. I was wondering if it would be possible to build an adapter which would allow me to charge it from a power bank, even if just slowly or via multiple USB ports.

I know you can buy adapters which utilise USB power delivery, but most outlets and powerbanks don't have PD yet.

Is this the right place for private servers?

I'm looking for a community like /r/wowservers to find other fellow "pirates" who like the original classic experience of WoW.

#ADHD Tip: Break your browser to stay focused while working

Browsers are really a problem because they offer everything in one application. Productive work, distracting social media and entertainment of all sorts. It's hell!

So, if you are having trouble focusing, try breaking your browser by renaming firefox.exe or chrome.exe so that you can't use it anymore. If you need specific information, print it out or write it down.

It's not for everyone, but it helped me a lot.
