That’s partly due to Hungary and Poland supporting each other. One country can be handled, but two is a problem. Still, I can understand that a country would hesitate to join if there wasn’t some guarantee to block things specific to one country.

but I have a bunch of 3.5" drives and one M2 I’ll probably bring over from my current machine as well. Hence the case should support more than two 3.5" disks.

3.5" spinning disks often use quite a bit of power. If you don’t need them all the time I’d buy something to connect them easily over USB.

I usually just buy whatever is a good price vs performance. Buying an overpowered PSU has an effect on the efficiency of that PSU (often it gets worse).

Anyway, maybe one consideration might be sound. I like silent systems so for a system where you’d spend loads of time on I’d rather have it completely silent. That would require drastic changes, but maybe good to check how much noise each component makes while idle, common usage and when stressed.

Cannot easily see, but might also be good to check if your keyboard and mouse are still nice. Though unfortunately the nice keyboards often have RGB.

but there are still a few edge cases for certain higher spec hardware

Or like my experience: I upgraded my AM4 CPU to something newer. This required a BIOS/UEFI upgrade. After that getting out of suspend was unreliable. So even if the hardware seems fine it might have issues later on.

It seems to work again since a recent kernel, but as it only failed to resume in maybe 10% of the cases it’s difficult to say if the problem is gone or not.

Sometimes there’s a hidden menu. It’s usually called hotel mode and/or service mode. It’s usually easily findable on Google. That mode is also great to e.g. limit the max volume. There could be multiple modes btw. Maybe the LED setting is part of those modes?

I have a black pen that can write on plastic. I’ve used that to dim the insanely bright LED on a smoke detector. If you are careful (I wasn’t) then this method looks nicer than putting some tape on a device.

You can have Google clear things automatically so it’ll only keep things for a certain amount of months.

Without any history Google often shows pretty extreme videos, so in my experience the lack of any history is not good.

He showed us that the government sticks it’s fingers into social media in ways that are illegal

That’s what a few right wing media repeatedly claim but I haven’t seen anyone actually providing any proof. Or do you mean the recent crazy judge decision?

There’s one of these reports/overviews every day.

One of them is from a time in February to a time a July. So I’m not sure what the time frame is.

Follow one of the Ukraine MoD social channels to see the daily posts. It’s a sightly different format, figures are the same.

I know Reuters is state-affiliated media

Jeez, even the first thing you say can easily be checked. Please check if what you think is true is actually true.

Reuters partly does their own research/reporting, partly it just redistributes reports from other media.

That’s completely different than your first claim.

barbarism and cultural fetishizing of brutal mass murder

This doesn’t make any sense. Are you from Russia? How does anything in your comment make sense? It feels like random words and sentences.
