RedShift1 commented on Windows 11 Update KB5063878 Causing SSD Failures   old.reddit.com/r/msp/comm... · Posted by u/binwiederhier

I've seen lots of SSDs die suddenly (no longer visible on the bus), so I would assume that is what is happening based on the words people are using. I've yet to see an SSD fail to read only mode like they're supposed to... and there's rarely any warning, just working or dead (although I did have a couple that went from working to terribly slow while doing a large reallocation, and we replaced those rather than find out what would happen over a longer term)

That said, people use words with a different meaning all the time, and data corruption could fit as a failure.

Failing to read-only is only an Intel thing, I've not seen any other SSD do that...

Is it actually killing the SSD (SSD can no longer be used) or just corrupting the data on the SSD? It's hard to make out from all the comments and news articles.

The client costs money too, opportunity cost.

Which, unfortunately, cannot be measured :( so no KPIs. Darn!

Its all fun and games until you cut quality over and over so much your customers just leave. Ask Chrysler or GE. I mean they must have saved, what, billions across decades? And for free!

Well... um... not free actually, because those companies have been run into the ground, dragged through hell, revived, and then damned again.

On linux, you are likely missing the db drivers for Qt for other database types.

Just seeking a clarification on how this would be done:

One would use gemini-cli (or claude-cli),

- and give a natural language prompt to gemini (or claude) on what processing needs to be done,

- with the correct paths to FFmpeg and the media file,

- and g-cli (or c-cli) would take it from there.

Is this correct?

Yes. It works amazingly well for ffmpeg.

I'd also include Regex in the list of dark arts incantations.

I'm ok with regex, but the ffmpeg manpage, it scares me...

I installed it and the only choice I got for selecting a database was SQLite

Unfortunately the only database it supports is SQLite, I really wanted to hook this up directly to a database or REST API. Going back and forth between exporting files and importing them into LabPlot is just too much work...

Similar reason why there is a big price difference between DVDs and Blu-rays, and why DVDs still exist in the first place.

They still make new DVD's?

On those forums, it's not just that there'd be no follow up; in my experience there'd typically be someone with a username marked as a "Community MVP" who would paste long walls of generic troubleshooting text for 2 or 3 replies insisting that the user go through a long list of steps that usually seem not to resolve anything (or indeed introduce additional variables and problems), often including completely irrelevant suggestions that seem to indicate the user's report was not actually read in its entirety to begin with.
