If you are looking for non-fiction, I've been reading Why we sleep. Lack of sleep, even only a few hours, is really really bad according to science.

Anyone here ever use Chatroulette? I feel like chatting with a random person. Well... I just tried. After a bunch of guys immediately passing on me, one guy sounded like he was reading prose, but kept the same inflection as I tried to talk with him. I had a hard time hearing, and it didn't seem like we would have a good conversation, so I ended the session. Chat42.online was a bit better. Text-only, met a couple of people, but most there want to talk dirty.

Looks like you're not using unicode then. You should really strive for unicode. Check out the /etc/locales file for lines ending with UTF-8, for example en_US.UTF-8. You can also check out following wiki page: wiki.archlinux.org...

Are you using Latin - 1 encoding instead of utf8? Is that a Linux? What is `echo $LANG` give you?

Do I understand correctly that your media is stored redundantly on both drives and one of those is your working hard drive? Are both hard drives always connected to your machine and how often do you do backups?

What's your setup for personal backups? I've just started using restic on an old HDD I found, still looking for a good (cheap) SSD to buy. I think I should use at least two hard drives for backups, maybe even do some fancy RAID... By the way, this post serves as a REMINDER TO DO YOUR BACKUPS!
