Of course it has no power. It’s an organisation indeed to enhance the collaboration between police in different countries.

Now you get extremely vague mod logs instead 🤷

It was a marketing stunt: https://www.afaqs.com/news/social-media/yes-madams-termination-email-unveiled-as-campaign-to-address-workplace-stress-8416050

Our regular banks in Sweden do have yearly fees, does that count? (No obviously not)

Kinda hard to see in the dark with LEGO though 🤷

Why so many accounts and especially credit cards?

Does anyone want some popcorn?

Yes, always.

It’s pretty exhausting having to block everyone all the time though. That’s one small benefit with Lemmy. You can block instances.

Oh, I like it because it is fast and that all the emails are downloaded locally.

But I guess that the UI is a bit outdated especially before their quite recent makeover. Thunderbird has existed for 20 years after all.

If you haven’t tried it recently I encourage you to try it again, but I get if you don’t want to bother.

For what I know the problem was primarily with the webmail.

I used the desktop app with exchange online and wouldn’t have noticed anything unless the support team didn’t inform us.

Have you tried thunderbird? I like it a lot.

At work I haven’t bothered with using thunderbird but I might if new outlook doesn’t get good by 2029 (or whenever they retire the old outlook app)

I’m really happy that I don’t have to administer any on prem exchange servers though.

They are actually required at night. https://www.transportstyrelsen.se/sv/vagtrafik/Trafikregler/Cyklist-mopedist-motorcyklist/Trafikregler/Regler-for-cykel/

Reflectors are also required.

And yeah the rear light are allowed to flash.

I still agree that cars are way more visible.

Why are you starting a new thread. Join the existing or something instead. This has been addressed.

Of course I know what HDD means. I work in IT. I just shorted it because it’s easier to understand, write, and say. I have already proved multiple times with multiple dictionaries that “Hard drive” is the same as “Hard disk drive”.

Either way it doesn’t matter, the point was that you shouldn’t call SSDs HDDs.

You didn’t link to the actual dictionary like I did. You linked to an article.

Here is the dictionary: https://www.britannica.com/dictionary/hard-drive

Yeah I searched for the definitions not some blog posts bruh. Are those the original definitions you were talking about?

Of course “Hard drive” can refer to other things. It’s just incorrect in the same way refering to a SSD as a HDD is wrong. Wikipedia is just helpful.

you started this just because I said that calling an SSD a hard drive isnt wrong, which it isnt, but calling if HDD is because that implies a disk, thats all.

Yeah, because you are wrong mate. Just teach people the corrent terms instead. It isn’t hard. It’s literally 3 letters. People use the wrong terms all the time and that’s obviusly fine when you were a kid, but don’t spread it into the modern age.

Why are you just repeating what I said? Of course the definition of hard disk drives (and thus hard drives) predats SSDs. That’s why SSDs aren’t referred to as hard drives. Hard disk drives are called that because their disks are hard.

Please show me your “original definition” because I don’t come to the same conclusion.

“Hard drive” is just a quicker and easier way to say “hard disk drive”. I honestly don’t think I have ever heard someone actually say “hard disk drive” everyone shortens it to “hard drive”. “Hard drive” = “hard disk drive” “Hard drive” != Any non soft storage media.

You could call SSDs, “solid drives” if you like, but they for sure aren’t hard drives even if people often confuse the two.

Also I’m just curious, do you call CDs or vinyls hard disks? I mean they store data and they are technically hard disks (or discs, whichever spelling you prefer).

Merriam webster defines it in the same way and according to them that was how it was defined in 1982 when the word first came into use: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/hard drive#h1

a data-storage device consisting of a drive and one or more hard disks

The only definition I could find where hard drive means anything else is from the Cambridge dictionary “learners dictionary” https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/learner-english/hard-drive

the part inside a computer that is not removed and stores very large amounts of information

Their normal dictionary has the same definition as everybody else: https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/hard-drive

a part of a computer that reads information on a hard disk, or a separate device that can be connected to a computer in order to do this

Nah, just call an SSD an SSD (or solid-state drive if you got lots of time and like being overly verbose) or just storage device or similar synonym.

A hard disk drive is called that because it contains hard disks as opposed to earlier storage mediums which often had soft (or floppy) disks. Hard drive is just a shorter and easier way to say hard disk drive.

Hard doesn’t refer to the fact that the outer shell is hard, because of course it is.

So since SSDs don’t contain any disks, it doesn’t make a lot of sense to call them hard when they are in fact nonexistent.

Yes
