  • Those who've switched to Linux in the last year, how is it going?

  • Finally got a chance to try out the drive in a different PC and the errors were not happening. Good news for the drive but bad news for the rest of the laptop and me narrowing it down.

  • Thanks for the help. If it's the hardware then it's the hardware. I will try a few more things like booting from the drive in a different PC, but I may have to spend some money.

  • Checked the logs in Windows, you're right! A corrected hardware error has occurred from PCI Express Root Port. I reseated the drive with no change.

    I should mention that this laptop has always had issues with what I assumed to be thermal throttling. It would play games fine for 10-15 minutes before becoming a slideshow. I eventually stopped trying.

    I have set that option and I am currently downloading a GPU benchmark. Is that an appropriate test? What should I be looking for in dmesg?

  • Installed Linux Mint on my old personal laptop (Dell XPS 9560) and unfortunately ran into some issues that made me switch back to Windows. I really want to make it work

    It seems to have revealed either a hardware bug or failing hardware in the NVMe drive.

    First problem was log spam that filled up the partition:

    Some forum posts I found (example) suggested that this was a hardware bug and I could set pcie_aspm=off in grub to work around it. This stopped the log spam and everything seemed to be working fine.

    Later while I was doing some programming, everything froze for a while. When it came back, the partition was set to readonly. It wouldn't boot on restart and loaded up busybox instead. I was able to set it to writable, but it happened again soon after.

    I decided to switch back to Windows where there doesn't seem to be any issues.

    I really want to make it work. If it's failing hardware then I have no choice but to replace the drive, but if it's just a bug then I want to find a fix without buying new hardware. That would kind of defeat the point for me and I don't want to spend the money.

    I would appreciate any help. I booted into Mint again to grab the logs and I really want to keep using it.

  • I have a distressing memory about this from a party I went to a couple of years ago. It was mostly people in their mid 20s. One of the people I talked to was a 27 year old girl who was really into indie games. I handed her my phone with my Steam library and we chatted for 20 minutes about the games we'd been playing as she scrolled through it.

    Later in the night I found her standing slumped over in the hallway. I didn't recognize what was happening and I got very worried. I asked "excuse me, excuse me, are you okay??"

    Still folded over, she cocked her head up to look at me. The expression on her face was somewhere between dazed and starry-eyed. She said "YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL", reached her arms up and tried to grab my face. I ducked out of the way and left.

    Someone told me that she got like that at every party.

    The memory is seared into my brain. I still think about it and worry about her. I've seen fent folding in unhoused people before, but seeing it happen to someone I never would have expected really got to me.

There's this big mountain, see, a mile high, at the end of the universe, and once every thousand years there's this little bird-"-"What little bird?" said Aziraphale suspiciously.-"This little bird I'm talking about. And every thousand years-"-"The same bird every thousand years?"-Crowley hesitated. "Yeah," he said.-"Bloody ancient bird, then."-"Okay. And every thousand years this bird flies-"-"-limps-"-"-flies all the way to this mountain and sharpens its beak-"-"Hold on. You can't do that. Between here and the end of the universe there's loads of-" The angel waved a hand expansively, if a little unsteadily. "Loads of buggerall, dear boy."-"But it gets there anyway," Crowley persevered.-"How?"-"It doesn't matter!"-"It could use a space ship," said the angel.Crowley subsided a bit. "Yeah," he said. "If you like. Anyway, this bird-"-"Only it is the end of the universe we're talking about," said Aziraphale. "So it'd have to be one of those space ships where your descendants are the ones who get out at the other end. You have to tell your descendants, you say, When you get to the Mountain, you've got to-" He hesitated. "What have they got to do?"-"Sharpen its beak on the mountain," said Crowley. "And then it flies back-"-"-in the space ship-"-"And after a thousand years it goes and does it all again," said Crowley quickly.There was a moment of drunken silence.-"Seems a lot of effort just to sharpen a beak," mused Aziraphale.-"Listen," said Crowley urgently, "the point is that when the bird has worn the mountain down to nothing, right, then-"Aziraphale opened his mouth. Crowley just knew he was going to make some point about the relative hardness of birds' beaks and granite mountains, and plunged on quickly.-"-then you still won't have finished watching The Sound of Music."Aziraphale froze.-"And you'll enjoy it," Crowley said relentlessly. "You really will."-"My dear boy-"-"You won't have a choice."-"Listen-"-"Heaven has no taste."-"Now-"-"And not one single sushi restaurant."A look of pain crossed the angel's suddenly very serious face.

  • Not to mention that breathing 100% O2 at pressure can be deadly by itself.

    100% O2 at sea level means you are breathing about 1 bar of oxygen, usually called 1 partial pressure of oxygen (PPO2). The commercial machine in the OP supports 1.5-3 atm of pressure, assuming that I saw the right info. 100% O2 at 3 atm would mean breathing about 3 PPO2, which is more than enough to cause problems.

    You said it needs to safely support 6 atms of pressure, do you mean for the safety margin? You could safely breath air (21% O2) at 6 bars, it would be about 1.25 PPO2. Breathing 100% O2 at 6 bars would be about 6 PPO2, absolute insanity.

    Divers expose themselves to a maximum of 1.4 PPO2 because it starts to become toxic at 1.6 and above.

    When diving, there is a balancing act between nitrogen and oxygen that starts with your air mixture. More oxygen and less nitrogen lowers your risk of decompression sickness (caused by nitrogen) and allows you to stay deeper for longer, but it lowers your maximum operating depth (MOD) because of oxygen toxicity.

    A common "nitrox" mixture is 32% O2, which has a MOD of 111 ft. Going deeper risks having seizures underwater which are obviously extremely dangerous. We put the O2 mixture and maximum PPO2 into our dive computers and never exceed any of the thresholds it gives us.

    That said, things like cold, physical exertion, etc. bring the threshold down to that 1.6 bar number. You are exposed to those things while scuba diving but not in a hyperbaric chamber, so the threshold is probably higher in a hyperbaric chamber.

    I wouldn't ever think about "hyperbaric oxygen therapy" outside of a hospital, the risks are too high.

  • I could see an ultra rich scuba diver buying a hyperbaric chamber for their yacht. Decompression sickness is deadly and this is the only treatment. Hyperbaric chambers aren't common, there might not be one in an entire country. We get warnings about their availability when traveling. If you're diving off your yacht in a remote location, this could save your life.

    That said, there's a step set up. Maybe they're shore diving at home and decided to splurge on something crazy and unnecessary.
