This only works for specific mechanical failures, and I'd say about 25% of the time. It works because metal shrinks when cold, and this can sort of let a drive limp along for a short period of time to get small amounts of data off.

Drive clicking is the drive arm malfunctioning, and I wouldn't expect the freezer trick to do much if it's a messed up actuator or something. You already know the drive is bad though, so why not.

RISC is only for tinkering at this point.

It's really just for tinkering at this point, or cheap build systems I guess. There's some small edge cases where the existing instruction set will beat ARM or x86, but they're very niche. Eventually it's expected to be a contender to the more optimized stuff we see in ARM chips these days.

What you're describing is data TRANSFER. Bad sector detection and management is done by the drive controller firmware.

Don't they all make that claim?

Yes.

This reads like an April Fools joke.

This pretty much opens the door for Proton on mobile I guess?

Why? Nobody even knows why he was famous anymore.

just_another_person , 7 days ago to Selfhosted in Is it practically impossible for a newcomer selfhost without using centralised services, and get DDOSed or hacked?

Firewall, Auth on all services, diligent monitoring, network segmentation (vlans are fine), and don't leave any open communications ports, and you'll be fine.

Further steps would be intrusion detecting/banning like crowdsec for whatever apps leave world accessible. Maybe think about running a BSD host and using jails.

Try switching your browser to a mobile view and see if that works. I have a hunch.

They generally don't let the patient try to swallow these without assistance for that reason. A quick gargle with Lidocaine wash to numb the Uvula and lessen gagging, and they just pop it in the back of your throat with a little grabby tool. Works well enough.

If they literally only have a handful of users, so probably don't see a need to do anything about it 🤣
