Dillon, you son of a bitch you piece of shit!

This is the correct answer. Due to wear levelling, a traditional drive wipe program isn’t going to work reliably, whereas most (all?) SSDs have some sort of secure erase function.

It’s been a while since I read up on it but I think it works due to the drive encrypting everything that’s written to it, though you wouldn’t know it’s happening. When you call the secure erase function it just forgets the key and cycles in a new one, rendering everything previously written to it irrecoverable. The bonus is that it’s an incredibly quick operation.

Failing that, smash it to bits.

We were forcibly moved from Mattermost to Teams (because cost) and the lack of custom emotes is sorely felt throughout the company. I never counted, but I wouldn’t have been at all surprised if we’d had >100 of them. So many in-jokes gone forever.

Nah na na na na na. Nah na na na na na. How’s your father? Alright.

Supposably

Likewise trackballs. Took me all of a day to get used to using a thumb ball (Logitech MX Ergo), my wrist pain cleared right up and I haven’t looked back.

Yeah, they’re not great for twitch gaming, but on the flip side it’s highly amusing to watch people’s brains crash when they try to push it around like a mouse.
