Looks like a tiny lioness :O

I got a WD Red from Amazon (Marketplace) that looked exactly like a legit one, though kinda scratched up. I was only able to tell because I tried running a SMART test and it didn't even fail, it just didn't work. I got suspicious, so I tried to register the product on Western Digital website and it lacked the necessary code on the label. I then contacted WD and confirmed it was fake, thankfully I could return it and get money back.

I've been 9 years on E and if anything I think I got stronger, because I feel more in touch with my body. I guess this just works different for everyone ._.

Verbatim Datalife HTL BD-R discs are supposedly made in a similar technology (some folk on r/datahoarder think they're exactly the same but idk). At the very least they won't have the same problem as DVDs (no organic dye) and they actually work out cheaper than half decent HDDs. I can get 25GBx50 cake for £30. I've only started burning them a year or two ago so time will tell if I lose my data :x.

None of the articles I've read about this explains how the GDID gets mapped onto the user's activity.

"Windows device carrying GDID g:6755467234350028 had visited the ngrok signup page"

So does it mean that Windows monitors your activity outwith just Microsoft services and sends all data to their servers? Is it maybe MS Edge history sync?

I hope so :(

They're doing the "civilising mission" spin on the cultural genocide of East Turkestan and Tibet.

They're trying to be ironic, but they're clearly showing same patronising attitude towards indigenous peoples.

Alcohol is a hard drug.

Because otherwise they'd be considerate of others and just wear a top, it's not really hard, basic clothes in modern times are easy to come by for everyone. I think men should cover up as well; male chests are also commonly viewed sexually, people just don't treat female or gay sexuality as seriously.

thrill seeker, mentally ill, hippy, or something else

You call men like that "perverts" or "sex pests". Women can be those things too.
