@tilton I hope the encrypted fax prints out on paper and an office admin has to bust out the secret decoder ring.

Help. Please.
I have a terrifying thing happening and I don't know how to deal with it -- files on my Linux Mint install are having their contents replaced with NULs. Just... everything. Now and then it's an image here and an image there, but things are slowly being eaten. And it seems to happen to completely random things -- not just stuff I have open at any given moment, but random files buried in folders from ages ago.
I've already lost at least a dozen images from my archives and have no idea how to prevent it.
Edit: think I found it after checking for a pattern. Don't hold the power button down unless you absolutely have to, kids.

@tilton I have a few previous coworkers that post regularly there that give their take on the state of the industry and management challenges they face.
Years of posts, not just when they are looking for a job. It perplexes me.

@grumpygamer Did you get there via zipline using a rubber chicken-with-a-pulley-in-the-middle?

I don't want to be on the blockchain. I don't want to mint NFTs, I don't want to vibe code. I don't want to beg you to hit the 'subscribe' button and ring the bell. I don't want to game the algorithm for your likes or your views or your shares or to be on the first page of results or to get recommended. I don't want you to gift Nitro to my server. I don't want the thumbnails of my videos to have a red circle and question mark next to a faked expression of surprise, I don't want to pay for items that give me an advantage over other players. I don't want you to take a moment to hear about today's sponsor. I don't want to pump a meme coin, I don't want to craft prompts, I don't want to influence. I don't want you to watch me react to watching a video.
I'm seriously sick of this shit. All of it.
