  • Don't even try, that guy clearly gets off on being pedantic and hates to be wrong instead of trying to learn something new. Which is funny cause he didnt even know what HDD is short for.

  • Yeah I searched for the definitions not some blog posts bruh. Are those the original definitions you were talking about?

    Encyclopedia Britannica is a blog post? The one that exists since 1768? Alright man, have fun winning arguments in your head, you are delusional.

  • I guess you didn't search hard enough?

    "In addition to referring to the disks themselves, the term hard disk is also used to refer to the whole of a computer’s internal data storage. Beginning in the early 21st century, some personal computers and laptops were produced that used solid-state drives (SSDs) that relied on flash memory chips instead of hard disks to store information."

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_Drive
    "Hard Drive may also refer to:

    Solid-state drive, a computer storage device that has no moving parts"

    https://experience.dropbox.com/resources/what-is-a-hard-drive
    "What is an SSD?
    SSDs (solid state drives) are the newer of the type of hard drive. They have become the preferred format for high-end laptops’ internal hard drives, and all smartphones and tablets also use a form of SSD."

    Back when hard drive was first used, it meant any non-volatile type of storage that was 'hard', I was literally there. When people talked about HD, they meant computer storage since HD tvs werent even a thing. Now go relax man, no need to get all fussed about this simple discussion, you started this just because I said that calling an SSD a hard drive isnt wrong, which it isnt, but calling if HDD is because that implies a disk, thats all.

  • Never said anything bout shells. The definition of hard drives predates SSDs, back then you had soft media like a floppy disk and tapes, so by it's original definition, an SSD is a hard drive. Ofc nowadays we had to accommodate for the changes and there is little reason to say just hard drive since soft media is not widely used anymore

  • After many weeks clearing H Echo to get asscandy, it finally dropped this week. Then I open my 5 mythic dungeon box....

    I swear this game is making fun of me

    This looks absolutely amazing, thanks!

    It's weird, for the past few weeks I've been trying to switch from reddit to lemmy but something wasn't quite there... I couldn't tell what but I tried all sorts of apps and even the old.reddit style lemmy. After finding this app I can finally say I feel 0 reason to go back to reddit, great work! Kinda dumb but I decided my first post had to be about it since this is the reason for me to be on lemmy now. Also, is it just me or does it adapt to ultrawide resolutions? I've never dreamed to have a better experience browsing on ultrawide but here we are!
