  • You can not believe them all you want. It doesn’t magically make everyone competent.

    Businesses value MONEY first, not security, not happy customers, not competent staff. MONEY.

    Which is cheaper? Get a product working enough to sell. Get a product properly developed, secured, and audited.

    Pick one. Hint: corporations choose MONEY. Every time.

    Your data is not safe, because rich pieces of shit like MONEY more than they like YOU.




  • It’s all in what flare the square has. Colorado is the nice rectangle. Kansas is the long boi with a bite out of a corner. Utah is the square with a little square hat. Idaho is the retarded Utah immitator. Wyoming is the square stuck between them all only meant for fireworks and weirdos. Uh… what else…





  • If I had to guess, they’re the excited corporations jumping on the rainbow capitalism bandwagon now that it’s June, always eager to say, “we support you (one month out of the year in an attempt to pander)!!”, and Tuvak is the actual lgbtq+ community going, “lol no”.

    Though it doesn’t strike me as too obvious, so who knows if that matches the intent.





  • BTRFS is smart enough to check for file errors in some situations under normal operations (I forget which, it’s been a while). When it finds issues, it puts it in read only to try and prevent things from going off of potentially corrupt data.

    NTFS, which is what Windows usually uses, is a very “dumb” file system. It is merely a record of what files exist where, so if data corrupts, it will only throw NTFS off if it’s in the file index it stores itself. If it’s in the middle of your file, NTFS doesn’t know and doesn’t care and will just give you the wonky data.

    Windows seemingly continuing to work is just a consequence of the “dumb” file system. It will take some critical file getting corrupted before Windows or some program will just crash. At least BTRFS is trying to tell you things are looking amiss and you should definitely back up anything important.
