  • a lot of amazon sellers simply mark working pulls as “refubrished” when all they did was reformat or if you are lucky did a zero fill and check that the sectors weren’t bad.

    I don’t trust reburbs that aren’t manufacturer refurbished on any site because its a huge difference in the testing and checking being done.

    I do sometimes buy used drives, but I know what I am getting there vs “refurbished” - and there is usually a pricing difference which is why so many are dishonestly calling used drives refurbs.

    you want to look at the sellers warranty policies. if if they actually have one besides amazons, the seller is confident in their own items longevity







  • Well for starters alternatives to github would need to stop shitting the bed. I and my team left for gitlab at one point, then gitlab had that whole fiasco where they violated everyones rights and litteraly broke the law while their ideot cfo mouthed off in public posts at the company devs who questioned the move. Then after that they tried to remove “inactive” projects till a whistleblower leaked it and that blew up in their face.

    Bitbucket ignored major issues with its platform for more tha 6 years including the most popularly demanded feature basic fucking search functionality.

    The list goes on and we tried many things before being basically forced to ho back to github. But right now unless you can self host githubs the best of what’s available. If you self host I recommend gitea or gogs over shitlab who has proven they can’t be trusted.
