chuggles - I’m in danger - of data loss.
I burnt the “trustworthy life-left” of a 256GiB NVMe disk in approx 6 years by writting 25 TiB onto it. :D It still works, but doesn’t hold any important data.
I however do fear the day one of the 1TiB spinning rust disks, in RAID1, die. I created the array in 2020 but the disks are nearly twice as old. (~12 years) There is stuff from WinXp era on those disks that I as a young wipper snaper once developed - irreplaceable.


Cinnamon situation currently on arch feels such that it might break at any time, and in fact has recently. :-( I have absolutely loved the simplicity of this DE, but the breakages lately are worrisome. I’m considering migrating from cinnamon to plasma, but the added cruft that comes with the Plasma DE does not impress me. There is some tension; I have contributed to KDE projects, and I prefer KDE apps over gnome/GTK.
How well does plasma wayland tolerate unresponsive apps? I need to be able to keep graphical apps in this state for possibly an hour at time, as I run them under a debugger.
