    caches are never really a concern to me they will regen after the fact, from your description i would worry more about db, this is dependent though in what you’re using and what you are storing. if the concern is having the same system intact then my primary concern would be backing up any config file you have. in cases of failure you mainly want to protect against data loss, if it takes time to regenerate cache/db that’s time well spent for simplicity of actively maintaining your system

    in Windows you separate each drive by a letter like C:, D:, etc, however on Linux your drives are mounted as part of your folder structure. the top level is called root which would be / you can then mount each disc as a folder under root, so for example /home could be a separate hard drive but it’s still mounted under root, note the starting slash. This means the command deletes any and all files+directories under root, this can include mounted USB, mounted network drives and anything mounted to your root. you’re basically nuking all the files you can access when you’re logged in as admin/root.




  • my recommendation if you do is to look at refresh rate, going 120hz to 240hz felt like a much bigger upgrade to me than sdr to hdr. especially if you’re playing games that depend on response times, it just feels smoother. hdr in Linux is decently there on kde but there’s still issues getting it to work everywhere like Firefox, though they still look nicer than regular sdr imo. also avoid hdmi, especially if using amd!





  • my work we had test, stage and prod. test was very unstable as every merge auto deployed, so stage was semi stable where you would push changes you verified in test. then one day they decided to remove the stage environment. we have no data in test, other teams never passed data there, so we setup a semi production environment that has data and cost 10x as much. now they want to setup a stage environment to save costs but they don’t want to call it stage because that was bad and was too expensive. so they came up with a new name and are making everyone update to push data there. honestly i can’t take watching these people be praised for their innovation and promoted to make more of these shit decisions. the world’s gone mad and the madder you are the more you’re rewarded.
