It sounds like it was just not needles but subdermal transfusions of some kind. They likely didn’t clean the equipment properly as the citation was operation without a medical license. :/
@thendrix So it has crazy written all over it.
@skyblond WD drives are reliable. There's nothing wrong with a Blue.

@AmpBenzScientist oh, thanks for the information! Overheating is definitely one of the problems. And I don't know why Intel specifically chose the Kingston nv2 ssd as the oem drive, considering the overprice of this nuc.
I checked samsung, but it's too expensive for the use. I have two samsung 980pro in my laptop, I'd say that's the top level of a nvme drive. It's fast, stable, I'm super happy with it. But for my nuc, I don't have too many heavy load on io, and I already exceed my budget, so I chose the wd sn580, slower than the top line, but still a good drive for daily drive.

WTF why did it take multiple years to shut it down?
The agency launched an investigation into VIP Beauty Salon and Spa in Albuquerque after multiple women tested positive for HIV, which was linked back to them receiving vampire facials at the establishment.
Additionally, the CDC determined that up to 59 spa attendees may have been exposed to HIV, with 20 of them receiving vampire facials.
@thendrix Spas and salons had a similar problem with Hep C from manicures and pedicures. HIV isn't a beast like Hep C when it comes to exposure. Needle stick injuries are a good example.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6241928/
Needle Stick Injuries from a confirmed HIV Positive subject resulted in infection in %0.2 to %0.5 of cases.
There are less than one hundred test subjects in this weird group. A few subjects have tested positive for HIV. The CDC reports around 0.2726 per 100 subjects in that region.
It's statistically unlikely that all of the infections were a result of the weird facial even if they were all given HIV infected blood and there were more than a few exposures.
The occurrence of HIV in the population is within the range of the aforementioned needle stick injuries. So it would seem that they opted for extra credit. Was it the blood facials or the nine high risk activities?
This just in. Health Officials discover those noises were e-mails.

"To sustain this level of blind support for #Israel, the U.S. must erode its own #democracy. And that is what we see happening on U.S. campuses now." https://www.commondreams.org/news/emory-protests-arrests?utm_source=Common+Dreams&utm_campaign=460a87f4f5-Week+in+Review%3A+Sat.+4%2F27%2F24+w%2F+fundraiser&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_-32ccf17a11-%5BLIST_EMAIL_ID%5D
@BruceMirken So the Universities that are recruiting grounds for foreign intelligence agencies and operations have a problem with protestors.
It's probably a problem they helped to create. The real crime is that these indoctrination centers get to retain ownership of their test subjects through loans. It creates an atmosphere where the enslaved can be called upon to create distractions and they are disposable.
I've got no love for Emory. With that being said, I attended a University in the same League. One plays by their rules and does what they say or they will face the consequences.
That's all I see here. Someone defied a direct suggestion and they are facing consequences that don't raise suspicion. They knew what they were a part of and they are facing consequences for speaking out.
Universities are against Free Speech unless it's what they suggest. They are hypocrites with influence that appears to rival some levels of government.
It's always an injustice when someone with morals is shitcanned by a University. Events similar to this happen all of the time. Watch the credibility of the University increase in the public eye following this event. They know what they are doing.
It's not my intention to ramble, I just hoped to provide some context. As a disclaimer: I'm not affiliated with the University or those involved.

This will be my last time trying to comfort a Kingston drive during clonezilla copy.

The Kingston drive dropped again during copying a file. I immediately ordered a SN580 2TB ssd.
I'm done with this shit.
@skyblond This is an excerpt of a Tom's Hardware review on the line of drives.
"The Kingston NV2 is simply not a drive we can recommend in most cases because the range of hardware it can have makes it too risky for the buyer. You could get the great SM2269XT or the mediocre SM2267XT controller. You could get BiCS5 TLC or much slower QLC. None of these will have DRAM and it’s probably unfair to call this a PCIe 4.0 drive on top of all that.
In testing, the drive also ran hot even when idle and it draws a decent amount of power, making it less than ideal for many machines, including laptops. Its saving grace is its amazing price, which does make it perhaps good for something other than a primary drive."
I did suspect that it was the Memory Controller. I've bought four SSDs with three having Phison MCs and the other having a Silicon Motion MC.
I'd recommend checking the performance of the MC of a drive before buying it. The three SSDs with Phison MCs were bottlenecked by the MCs and not the flash. I got a random, no name Chinese SSD after the first four disappointments and it outperformed them with ease.
I would recommend a Samsung as I've seen them perform and I've never witnessed one die. I also question the thermal solution on the Kingston being a sticker.

Reverse-Engineering a Disposable Vape (Arm Cortex-M0)
So I recently got the chance to install LineageOS on a device. The performance is good and I don't have to deal with as much spyware as OEM.
I've been installing it for the past day. I've yet to make a successful call or text but it's still better than the standard experience.
LineageOS is the best Android experience I've had since Gingerbread or Lollipop.

it's 3AM. I can't sleep, and I'm thinking why. I don't know which is the root cause. I'm thinking because I can't sleep? Or I can't sleep because I'm thinking? Or maybe both?
Anyway, I think my current job offers a perfect opportunity to let me escape reality. Remote work, meet with different people from different place and they are so nice. I mean, the job opportunity itself is very, emm, I don't know how say, but it's a rare opportunity to me.
After getting a job, I can feel both my mental health and my life getting better. Although I spent a little bit too much in the first month, I got a decent monocular and dip my toe into digiscoping and bird watching, I got a Intel nuc as my first linux not running as a vm, today I figured out how to watch anime on it, a decent progress towards daily drive machine. Feels like I'm packing myself up and I'm about to start a new life, a life after almost two years of self doubting and frustration without getting any mental issues (at least not diagnosed). But this is the typical timing when you're too happy that you didn't mentally prepare for a bad thing.
although I try my best to escape from any family arguments, but I still need to live in a house, and I don't have one. So as you guessed, my parents again become the most contributions to my mental issues. I'm trying to make myself not care about them, so my mental health can be better, but it's petty hard to do. I mean, you live with someone every day and try not to care? I definitely can't.

Writing at here, I actually don't what to say. Based on what I'm writing, the rational part of me has already run out of battery and died peacefully. I bet myself will be super embarrassing after wake up and find this piece of text. But f*ck it, it's for tomorrow me to worry.
Sometimes (especially now) I wonder, am I really don't have any issue with my mental health? Or is it just not get diagnosed? I don't know. I haven't figured out my medical insurance yet, so probably I won't worry about it in the next 6 months. Time will tell.
And... For now, I really need some sleep.

Good news from Voyager 1.
NASA teams were able to move code that was on a section of corrupted memory in one of the spacecraft's computers. Now it's sending back usable engineering data for the first time since November 2023.
@thor I didn't know it was a common thing.

They say you'll have more success with women as you get older. I'd like to file a complaint about that...
