  1. Sure, and not so casually I previously proposed (tentatively) a couple of cities in states that are around the middle of the rating by price: About: Sure, that is clearly confirmed by: https://247wallst.com/special-report/2019/06/21/hot-dog-and-hamburger-consumption-by-state-2/6/ https://247wallst.com/special-report/2019/06/21/hot-dog-and-hamburger-consumption-by-state-2/7/ We can use the formula 481/236/(197/171)=1,77 to obtain a good enough approximation of 16/9.9=1,61. And, at the light of this, we can introduce a HPCF (House Price Correction Factor) of 2 and the West Virginia vs. Virginia bottom tier makes sense as $52,166*1.61*2=167,947 $ which is a very good approximation of the $165,069 jaclaz

  2. 1) neither will work as "over provisioning" Essentially over provisioning means, "out of the total amount of space accessible by the controller, let only part of it accessible by the OS (and the rest will be used by the controller for spare sectors)", not using some of the space that the OS can see is totally irrelevant. you need specific tools (by the SSD manufacturer) or hdparm (or similar) to effectively implement an opverprovisioning space, see (examples): http://www.tech-g.com/2015/06/13/over-provisioning-ssd-in-linux/ https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/white-papers/over-provisioning-nand-based-ssds-better-endurance-whitepaper.pdf 2) check the COLOURS in the Disk Management view Black top bar: Unallocated (where you can create EITHER a primary or an extended partition) Dark Blue top bar: Primary Partition Light Blue top bar: Logical Volume inside Extended Light green frame: Extended partition Light green top bar: Free Space (inside Extended, where you can ONLY create an additional logical volume) If you prefer, in the first disk ALL space is allocated by the three primary partitions and by the extended one, but inside the extended one you made 2 volumes and there is some free space left "on the right", still within the extended partition, while in the second disk, most of the disk is allocated by 5 primary partitions (either the disk is GPT or as you say Disk Manager is mis-representing the partitions ) , but there is some unallocated space "on the right", outside any partition. Personally I don't buy that the ext4 volumes/partitions can create a fifth primary partition, there are 4 entries and no more in the MBR partition table, the filesystem used on any partition won't change this, anyway, if you believe that Disk Manager is misrepresenting the situation, you shouldn't use it. jaclaz

  3. Yes....I would agree with you but "anything" shouldn't include Windows...... Debian is my favourite of all the distros... I don't have the time to test newer ones....most of them are based on one of the better distros and that is Debian... bookie32

  4. True, just saying with computers you almost can't avoid problems that make you wanna throw it outta the window, LOL! Two really nice things about Linux; no licensing/activation and related nonsense and no random crap running in the background. Also why MS can't get simple things like Night Light right? Well it works in version 1809, but in later builds the setting that picks the times from location doesn't really work reliably, it seems to always pick fixed times as if you had the other radio button checked, even though it says it's using the other times. TBH, this is a classic blatant lie made by such companies to make user feel cozy to still be in "supported" land, but even if the software in question has a critical bug that prevents its basic function to ALWAYS work correctly, they won't do s*** about it. "Buy our latest version or f*** off!" Edit: the only difference between MS and certain other companies being that MS somehow gets away with nonsensical decisions made in newer versions of software (at least with Windows) while such decisions would be fatal for a smaller company. But who knows, maybe even the latter doesn't always apply. A lot of people have s*** for brains.

  6. You've done a lot of work. But I'm afraid the effort doesn't produce good and lasting results. The site is still broken, slow and they will change it again in a year. And this is just one forum of many. Roytam's Palemoon makes the site browsable. People won't like this, and I will keep it short. The MSFN management appears hypocritical when they complain about Microsoft and other websites, and then do similar updates. Maybe I am misjudging the proportion of content dedicated to legacy software support, because those are the only sections I visit as they are unique to this resource. I think I've made a typo while gathering the style snippets because my colors are all green. But it's so much easier to skim through with shaded Quote boxes. Could you concatenate all the fixes into one block? hxxps://i.imgur.com/XBaW5gw.png Even inserting a link now requires a special dance.
