  • You can kinda make a word as long as you want like in German, the one I mentioned I know have just been in official use.

    To give an example. A dog house in Danish is combined by “hund” and “hus” and becomes “hundehus” (the e in the middle is “gluing” the words together. Sometimes needed). If you have some roof for a dog house, a so called dog house roof, then the word becomes “hundehustag” (“tag” being roof). If you are talking about a shingle made for a dog house roof, then it becomes a “hundehustagplade” (funnily enough “tagplade” means shingle and is thus itself a combined word of “tag” (roof) and “plade” (plate)).

    You can kinda keep on stacking nouns like this ad infitium in order to narrow down the exact type of shingle you’re talking about.




  • WD Red Pro are as quiet as Plus when not seeking. The seeking behaviour is something I barely notice when sitting 2 meters away from 10 spinning platters in my office. I can wholeheartedly recommend them as a size upgrade from Plus.

    No problems either, but that’s just an anecdote. Worth remembering though is that review are negatively skewed since positive experiences rarely turn into a review.





  • There’s been lots of great movies lately, they’ve just drowned in the massive marketing budgets of copy pasta bullshit sequels.

    What I do instead is mostly rely on specific directors that I know produce high quality content like Guy Ritchie, Wes Anderson, and Christopher Nolan (especially work done together with his brother, Jonathan Nolan, but IIRC Jonathan mostly focused on series like Westworld and Fallout after Interstellar).

    Another thing to look for is A24 movies. They’re quite unique and usually pushes the limits with story telling. Their older stuff, while great, might though not be everyone’s cup of tea but it seems like they’re trying to mellow it a bit out lately to cater to a larger audience.
