I buy Samsung SSDs when I can afford them, Kingston when money is tight. Samsung is faster, especially their NVME drives. Both have been very reliable for me.

These are used drives that have about 35K hours (4 years) of power on time.
Good quality drives to be sure, but maybe not as reliable now as they once were.

I’m starting to feel like violence is the answer to this kind of argument. I’m not there yet. But I get closer every time I see this shit.

5G means Fifth Generation, so I would think that 5.5G is simply an improved version.

Wow! I’m not religious at all. So maybe I am just being an insensitive prick about this, but I really don’t care if someone wants their remains to be on the moon and I don’t care who it offends. It’s the moon.

There is no way in hell I would stop and consider the feelings of any religious group about a planetary body that isn’t Earth.

I also think that sending human remains to the moon is a complete waste of time, money, and resources. The only way a flight like this makes any sense is as a precursor to a manned mission.

Someday in the near future I expect there to be some kind of long term living space on the moon. When that happens, at some point someone will not make it back alive. It seems perfectly reasonable to me if their remains stay there permanently.

I don’t know. Maybe that’s just me. I’m not in a position to be anything more than a single voice. The whole thing seems really kinda dumb.

We have two buildings on our property with mini split heat pumps. Both are very quiet. They can be a bit noisy indoors if you turn the fan above the medium setting. It’s basically silent on the low fan setting. Low is plenty for both heating and cooling.
