SLC drives have around 100,000 write cycles. Most consumer SSDs are QLC now and those have less than 1,000 write cycles

Source needed. The amount of write cycles is dependent on the actual quality of the flash.

Also sources needed for "most SSDs are QLC now" maybe true for bottom of the barrel cheap useless SSDs.

Also, the amount of write cycle does not mean much without knowing how many flash chips you have on the SSD. A 1tb ssd can consist of 1 or 16 flash chips.

Also, if the data were encrypted, the encryption key would have been on the Computer anyway, but yes it could have been better protected.

EAS is not implemented so imap and pop3 only. But i heard they currently work on EAS and should be arriving in the near future.

For EAS there is also a paid plugin Owl i think.

A port is not secure or insecure. The thing that can lead to security risks is the service that answers that port.

Use strong authentication and encryption on those services and keep them up to date.

I hate when i have to go 4 links deep to get an explanation of what it even is.

The simple point is, no one forces you to use wires. Bluetooth has been a thing for decades.

But basically every (yes some exceptions) company that makes phones forced you to use wireless ones.

And in the case of Fairphone it is just simply hypocritical.

Wired headphones do not have the need for replaceable batteries.

If the CPU died, the PC would not have booted up so far.

A lot of IDEs would probably throw a warning about unreachable code.

The great thing about manjaro is, that when it finally bricks itself you can install a proper distro on it. https://github.com/arindas/manjarno

The 3B+ was probably the high of the raspberry pi. It is still pretty much unrivaled in terms of idle power consumption and energy efficiency (or at least i have not seen any other SBC that got below 0.5 Watts on idle) on the consumer market.

But i have trouble investing further into them.

  1. They do not post any update guides for newer Debian releases and basically only support new deployments.
  2. It looks like they are abandoning their older products. vcgencmd for example is still broken on the 3B+. Since they "fixed" it for the 4B. See https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/issues/1224

No you are mistaken with "Or $5 mire to own it". You own a license to watch for the amount of time the platforms decides to keep it up.
