I do that physically. The undo attempt. (Usually doesn't work)

Alright, so others went over the "easy" way to see which program is being the offender. But I feel like the average Lemmy user just skips GUI at this point.
Say hello to KDE:
KDE also does automatic fsck before mounting, which is why it may take some 2 seconds to mount a drive.
HDDs it properly spins down and unpowers as well.
Writes are asynchronous on Linux.
Unless I mount it with sync, which I wish would be default for non-system drives (which are going to be in fstab anyway). I didn't notice any difference, aside from the lack of guessing when the magic is over. 2GiB goes into black hole, now what?
- You can also... left.
Well, Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD_region_code#Computer_DVD_drives
Basically same as regions on standalone DVD players. Just a scummy thing to only allow you to play DVDs from your own region, perhaps so that you wouldn't buy them from cheaper countries, or buy them earlier than you're supposed to in your country.
If everything works correctly, then say you buy DVDs from UK, but something new just released in US, but haven't even played in cinemas in UK yet. So you buy it from US... and it shouldn't work.
VLC doesn't care about this, but still, the drive firmware might.
BluRays also have regions
By the fucking way, BluRays have some DRM with revocable keys
This is part of the AACS protection scheme: editors are able to revoke old software player host keys that have leaked on the Internet and distribute the lists on newer commercial disc releases. This is irreversible and cannot be fixed even after reflashing the drive.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Blu-ray#Revoked_Host_key/certificate
So when do you truly own something? When you pirate it. No regions, no DRM, 4k on any device powerful enough.
Except the problem seems to be the said storage device.
If it is a hardware failure, I don't see why it should be an issue. I know re-installing Windows is something PC repair shops do often, and I don't see how that's different from any other OS.
fault or failure resulting from software
Unfortunately, that's quite broad. But it could also just apply for stuff like overclocking or firmware modifications. Or even simpler stuff. I could see someone having DVDs from multiple regions, changing drive region every time until they hit the 5 changes limit, and then trying to claim it for warranty (I've had some software on Windows do that automatically...).
Should I submit it with the Linux installation intact or replace it a fresh install of Windows
Or if there's private data, overwrite it with output of /dev/urandom or /dev/zero. blkdiscard might also be your friend since it's an SSD.
I am doubtful whether they have experience working on anything other than Windows
Probably they'll just test the rest with their own drive or re-install it.
Or maybe try to ask them how to prepare the device for the warranty claim.
Welp, turns out I am just an idiot. 1279 and below disabled IPv6, and thus the ::/0 route didn't get applied either, causing a leak. What's still odd is the lower download speed that doesn't happen in another client.
As for the upload, it probably gets a better route through the VPS, giving me a faster speed, and giving me some confusion.
So my first idea with IPv6 was close, but on the other side of the connection.
Anyway, your reply helped me find this issue, as my outtake was to try fully disabling IPv6 (not the first time I tried such "solution").
I tried catbox, but that didn't embed, and our instance is too slow to host images.
Durning peak loads, I may wait up to 2 minutes to fully load lemmy.sdf.org.
Otherwise I'd avoid Imgur as I always get 403 with a VPN, and I basically always use one.
#include <stdio.h>
int main(){
step1: /*Step 1*/ printf("Be attractive\n");
/*Step 2*/ printf("Don't be unattractive\n");
/*Step 3*/ goto step1;
}
OK, first of all, I am not a programmer. (yes, I heard the "thank god") Perhaps I could make the top example simpler.
But anyway, I kind of like goto too much. I find it more intuitive to just jump around and re-use parts rather than think about how to do loops without too much nesting.
In high school, we only did Python. I really wanted to do goto in Python as well, but all I found was this April fools' goto module.
Now in college we're starting with C, and I am starting with Bad Habits^TM^.
Anyway, tagging every line was BASICally just for the joke, but it is useful to just jump to any random line.
I don't have a freezer on my dorm.
Probably because they were cheap (€2.59), and the thing seems to be mostly water, sugar and coconut oil.
Anyway...

The SWIPE plan of Slovak Telekom limited by age up to 28. Despite them having a web portal and shop, SWIPE can only be purchased and managed via a separate app for SWIPE.
Going through registration, it just loads a fucking website to do the registration.
But if that's not enough, it's Chrome-only it seems.
The support for SWIPE seems limited to an LLM chatbot that can do anything but being helpful
Furthermore, at school I got an ad for 3 months 50% off on this plan with ISIC, yet such an offer seems nowhere to be found on the internet, and I've been unable to find the code as directed.
This feels like a usual no-name brand scam, yet it's just part of Deutche Telekom group.
Above is basically same thing in Slovak
"How can I talk with a human?"
"Hello! You can talk with a human in person, through phone, or various chatting applications. If you want to contact someone through SMS or call, with our service SWIPE you'll manage it perfectly. If you have any specific question about SWIPE, feel free to ask!"

Neither. It's about using screen pixels to make vertical/horizontal lines, using aliasing as feature.
