*Glares at work computer
WELL…? WE’RE WAITING.gif
Is this 100% an OS issue, or a hardware issue just being made apparent by the OS doing something weird?
Most likely an hardware issue, ZFS has seen similar types of corruption with certain drives under normal operation.
That makes sense.
While windows doing a bunch of IO is silly and probably could be more efficient, it sounds like the blame is the SSD controllers crapping out when asked to do exactly what they advertise they are supposed to do (high throughput IO).
Please hit my work computer plz plz plz
Welp, Windows 11 is going to make me quit my sysadmin job of 15+ years, after all. I already refuse to use it at home but have no options at work. Bet dollars to donuts this was some sort of vibe coder AI fuck up we’ll never be able to confirm.
Yeah I remember when Linux Update did this . . . oh wait, no I don’t.
I think I do but I’m not sure. I seem to remember some years back when a kernel version was released and due to a bug on either a driver or a filesystem, as soon as you started writing it would override the partition table or something like that
May have been this one

windows quality has seemingly took a nosedive after 7 and never recovered. glad to have left.
I thought 10 was fine too, didn’t like the new menu bullshit though. I use Arch by the way.
If windows 7 was still supported it would be my go to for the rare “I need windows” moments. Windows 11 seems sluggish to me
It would be fun if your next “I need Windows” OS was ReactOS and have less problems than using Windows.
windows 11 is just ridiculous. it’s slow even on state of the art computers, takes 6-8gb of ram just to idle on the damn desktop.
I got my father onto Linux a while ago and the first thing he commented on was how snappy the whole system was
Same thing for one of my grandparents.
God damn, after ~20 years of being off Windows reading about problem after problem on each and every update is exhausting.
How do you all (Windows users) deal with this shit?
Wait 3 weeks before applying updates and let other people be the guinea pigs. It’s usually enough time for things like this to be caught and withdrawn by MS.
I’ve never had an issue of this gravity on Windows. I use Linux and it has its issues as well. Stability is not why I use Linux lmao
You use the wrong linux then.
No, they all have their issues. That is the very definition of linux.
I usually restart my gentoo machines when I move or once every couple of years when I update them. Debian stable is pretty similar.
This Post was the final straw for me. Just spent the afternoon setting up Linux Mint Mate and it’s working well so far!
This was the push I needed to get off Windows completely. Some update broke Bluetooth connectivity. It’s penguins all the way down for me now.
