  • We have/had a combination machine from Whirlpool which we got in 2019. It was fairly cheap, I don’t remember exactly, but somewhere €600 on a sale.

    I’ve replaced the heater element twice. The shock absorbers twice, because as I was installing a new one the threads stripped immediately. I’ve replaced the drain pump once. Now it’s been sitting unused for a month, rusting because the heater element has broken once again.

    Good thing we’ve got a shared laundry room in our apartment complex!






  • What? They absolutely massacre the sound, lowers the volume and blocks out anything but the bass. They fit terribly too.

    I have a pair of Alpine MusicSafe Pro which I got for $30 for a two day festival. They’re night and day compared to anything you can buy at the venue or at a pharmacy. They lower the volume without muffling anything, and allows you to pick how aggressively they should block the sound.

    It’s not wrong, but it feels a bit like some tech articles you’ll see which are obviously just created to fluff up a CV. I wouldn’t say avyttring here is flat out wrong, just kinda… lacking.

    But yeah, /boot holds “system boot loader files”, sure, but that’s a bit vague. It should contain your kernel and initramcpio and IIRC Grub also had its config here. That’s pretty much it. I would’ve rather said /boot contains the kernel.

    “device files” it’s so vague that it’s almost wrong IMO. At first glaze I would’ve thought that it means drivers rather than, say, “interfaces to devices”






  • This is the way. There is a GParted distro that you can boot from a USB-drive that will allow you to move the partition and expand it to take up the free space Windows left.

    You should first install GParted to familiarise yourself a little with how the GUI looks. It’s relatively simple, definitely simpler than parted, but it doesn’t hurt to have a look around before doing it live.

    It’s also good to note that everything you do in GParted needs to be applied before it’s actually done. You “cannot” accidentally delete a whole partition without actually hitting an apply button.
