I don’t use the word cringe often but your comment fits the definition.

You’re missing the entire point.

None of it is unique to the device — I have backups of everything — but I still want the photos and videos on the new phone. :-)

Interesting. I can shoot raw directly to my Android internal storage, although it isn't fast enough for 4k60 10 bit without compression.

Nothing more than slop all the way down.

It was started with the republicans filing court cases that the EPA had too much power and was getting in the way of industry. Yes the same EPA that was signed into law by *checks notes* noted woke libtard Richard Nixon.

Now for my favorite slashdot rebuttal

Correlation does not equal causation.

Data tapes from the 1960s are still readable if they were stored properly. Finding working 7 track drives are a different matter.

Without knowing precisely how Explorer is structured, it's conceivable that there may be different dynamically-linked libraries and/or execution points for running the desktop and for the file explorer, in which case just having explorer.exe running in and of itself doesn't mean that new modules have to be loaded if explorer.exe process fires up. The solution could very well be to load the libraries involved in file browsing when the desktop opens.

Just guessing here. There was a time when there was a lot more horsepower required for GUI elements than folder browsing, but this is 2025, and explorer.exe probably uses orders of a magnitude more resources now than it did in 1995, because... well, who knows really. Probably to sell more ads and load up more data to their AI.

What's changed is that in the early days flash memory was one bit per cell. Now most consumer grade stuff is multi level, so instead of a single threshold voltage that separates a 1 from a 0, there are multiple thresholds that each represent a different binary code.

SSDs sometimes have to re-read blocks with different voltage thresholds to get good data, and make use of error correction on top.

Presumably age related degradation is worse for multi-level flash.

Twitter used to do this with the verified badges, but then Elon started selling them and they became the mark of someone stupid enough to give him money for a blue tick.

It's not a bad idea in principle. A simple cryptographic certificate that government agencies can use to validate their messages. The hardest part will be the UI. Making sure it is clear and not easily spoofed.

Indeed, I've lost count of how many attempts this has been now.
