To native English speakers, yes. To non-native speakers, this is yet another bizarre rule they just have to memorize.

Micay stepped down as lead developer and foundation director. I'm not sure what role he has with the project currently, but it seems like he plans on leaving the project entirely, long term. I haven't heard of any controversy since then. They've been hard at work and actually added support for Android Auto last month.

  • SLC -> Single-Level Cell, i.e. 1 bit per cell
  • MLC -> Multi-Level Cell, i.e. 2 bits per cell
  • TLC -> Triple-Level Cell, i.e. 3 bits per cell
  • QLC -> Quad-Level Cell, i.e. 4 bits per cell

The more bits per cell you store, the more dense and therefore cheaper your flash chips can be for a give capacity. The downside is that it is slower and less reliable since you have to be able to write and read exponentially more voltage states per cell, e.g. 2 states for SLC, 4 states for MLC, 8 states for TLC, etc.

The Trine series is pretty fun. It's a 2.5d puzzle platformer game. There are some combat bits, but most of the game is puzzles. I'd recommend the second one.

He killed four of his classmates and wounded seven others. 15 years old is old enough to know how terrible the impact of his actions would be. There is certainly more that we as a society could have done to help him with his mental illness, but that does not erase his agency and make him not responsible for his crimes. He has more than earned his punishment.

Well, for one, it's network attached storage. If it's not present in the network for one reason or another, guess what, your OS doesn't boot... or it errors during boot, depending on how the kernel was compiled and what switches your bootloader sends to the kernel during boot.

Just use nofail in the fstab.

Second, this is an easy way for malware to spread, especially if it's set to run after user logon.

If your fileshare is accessible to you, it is also accessible to malware running as your user. Mounting the share via a filemanager doesn't change this.
