The cloaca?

Double checked and all of the drives are basic. I’m very confused as to what is different between the disks that readable and the ones that aren’t.

I’ve even tried multiple distros. Same scenario.

It was a good theory, but no luck. I’m perplexed on this one.

How does Joplin hold up with larger files? I’ve just been using Google docs, which I don’t like for several reasons. One of which, is that it gets really choppy when you hit 100+ pages.

With the recent Microsoft garbage, I’m giving Linux another try. I’ve been running a laptop for a while, no issues. My main rig, however can’t read all of my um…?hard drives

A live USB of Mint 21 reads 2 of 5 drives fine. The rest are recognized from GParted, but can’t access them. It looks like NTFS-3G is installed.

I’ve duck duck go’d (which apparently is just Bing) for a solution, but haven’t succeeded. Long term, I can probably pick up another drive, copy, and reformat everything to something Linux friendly. For now, I just want access.

I’m lazy and burned out. I don’t want to use the terminal- which I did try. I just want to make a few clicks and have access to all of my files.

If it matters, the drives (roughly) show up as: 500 gb, 4 TB NTFS (readable) 3, 12, 16 TB unknown (not readable)

Windows says they’re all NTFS.

Is there an easy way to easily mount my drives?

The internet with a proper ad blocker is a game changer. Take the five minutes to figure it out. You’ll save more as free time than that on your first day.

Ironically, you could also YouTube how to install Firefox, then unlock.

Everyone laughs like this is obvious, but I really struggle to do this. I’m not sure if it’s an ADHD thing, but I just can’t make myself go to bed at night. Extremely tired? Nah, I’d better wait until I hit a second wind. There’s unimportant stuff I’d rather do.

I still find that insane.

“Russia has been attacking us for 2 years. We’re going to attack back.” “No, don’t do that. That will escalate things.” “Oh cool, I guess we’ll just keep taking it.”

I’m drooling at the thought.

Looks like that storm is going to fuck up that coast

Sounds familiar… Something about Roe v Wade. Or maybe every merger on whether prices will go up if the merger is allowed.

I am curious how many people don’t have an inner monologue, but there are a few articles on the subject. Here’s one at random.>

Who would have thought that another merger would not lead to lower prices for the consumer? Break all these companies until there’s like 10.

Girls

Not correct.

I have coworkers in Texas that got hit with multi thousand dollar bills during brown outs.

Deregulating critical services never ends well for the consumer.

Hey now. I’m sure the one woman here, not promoting her OF, has an opinion.

I would say Trump…if he were an actual billionaire

I was trying to find active users since he took over. But the only numbers I can find are numbers provided by Musk, who is a well known liar.

I know Lemmy and Mastodon are niche communities, and that people put up with a lot of garbage from Big Tech, but I have to believe that a lot of users have left Twitter, or least that usage is down. I also assume bots are way up, because Musk wants his numbers to be up regardless of the source (save for people with an opposing opinion).

Hopefully Musk’s shitty little empire crumbles…soon.

It’s not necessarily even consumer demand. Truck size and the EPA standards are linked for some reason. Essentially bigger trucks are allowed to have worse mileage.

This story talks about it. There are probably but better sources, but the point remains.

I would actually argue that many truck drivers don’t want a bigger vehicle. Mid size trucks came back on the market after a long hiatus. There are even a number of compact trucks available now, like the Maverick, Santa Cruz, etc.
