Thank you! Seems my request isn't popular - just don't enjoy using YouTube if I don't have to

Any chance you could post something other than YouTube links?

Don't have much personal experience with BX but they're probably fine. But once you have backups of anything you care about the worst that can happen is you need to restore those backups. If its running a service you can't do without then maybe a backup pi?

I have RPis running on SD cards for years with no issues so realistically you probably won't have any either but better to be prepared than not. And it also means that if you mess something up you can restore it to when it worked.

I've a number of 1GB + 2GB models. Admittedly none in the last 3 years but some are 8+ years going strong. I know of some others with no issues but maybe I've been lucky

Do you want reliable, or do you want cheap? You must choose 1 from that list.

If you're not planning on putting anything critical on it and you're doing backups, and you don't mind being without its use for however long it would take you to replace it if it dies, pick anything.

I've never had an SSD die on me Yet but I don't buy cheap brands though I don't buy top of the range and I usually buy at a good deal. Crucial MX has been reasonably priced in the past.

Get thicker skin. You've no problem criticizing windows, so have some humility and realise Linux is not perfect. And it's a joke. Learn to laugh at yourself

How about double tax for 20 years. The fucking audacity of "investors"

Driving fast can be enjoyable, ask a professional or even an amateur racer, but that's not what I'm saying. A legally mandated limiter is going to cost drivers money to have it installed on cars that don't have it. Governments aren't going to pay to have it retro installed. Or if they did, there are better things to prioritize first. It's also going to cause an increase in the price of new cars as well (because any reason to jack the price) though I suspect retro fitting is more expensive.

People doing 90 in a 30 or drag racing down a street, rollin coal, etc etc - totally disagree with that sort of thing, I just don't think punishing everyone else is the way to stop that issue. A fair and just legal/justice system that isn't hobbled by bullshit partisan politics and lobbying would do wonders.
