No i get people use more than one computer but I don't understand your point though about using wayDroid specifically vs a desktop totp manager? You can achieve the same by just having your totp seeds on one computer and manually filling the generated code on the other. Only difference is no android application needed just a standalone desktop totp manager

Was straight up asking myself this the other day and still couldn't come up with a good answer. I keep reading for 2fa or my passwords but that's not really a reason IMO. Why not just have a copy of your totp seeds (any good android totp manager should let you export) and then use a desktop manager like keepassxc, the same with your passwords. The only reason i can personally think of are games but even then which games are worth keeping on your desktop that don't already have a port? Another application that might be worth emulating could be like Shazam but not sure how good the desktop alternatives are
A hell of a deal
Huh weird I do have experience of this happening especially on used drives that are technically beyond their lives, +7 years etc, guess it depends on manufacturer and classification since you haven't personally experienced it. When I say slow down I'm referring to the read and write speed not the platter rpm even though that could happen such as with motor bearing wear. There's really multiple potential hard wear issue that could cause read and write speeds to slow down: head wear, platter degradation, etc. Although i do want to clarify that I'm not necessarily saying its dying or even if its 100% a hardware issue since fragmentation could be the cause. Not even sure if it'll be throwing out errors yet so I can't wait to see what OP updates us with.
Not op but the pic says ext4
Iirc with time mechanical drives do slow down significantly due to wear and tear so it kinda sounds its on its way out. If speed is a must maybe look at how much storage capacity you're using and switch to appropriate sized ssd/s. You can keep the mechanical drive as a cold backup.
Edit: not sure if you already done this and I usually don't recommend it if you don't have backups but benchmarking would show you the read and write speeds. Also depending on warranty status, you also have the option of doing a manufacturer replacement. Not sure what info Toshiba asks for but doesn't hurt to look into if you do decide to replace it.
That headline reads like a tongue twister
"Haha April fools"
Top of my head: like a Linksys MR7340 hydra should have enough ram and storage for openwrt for a few years iirc but only 3 Ethernet port so a switch might be needed. Think its 50 USD rn but I'll have to double check that. Another option would be like a used Linksys AC2200
Oh not at all just like having options available in case a project becomes inactive or some other problem happens. Love Veracrypt
Ooo haven't read the article yet but I'm hoping its a veracrypt alternative, hopefully they also have options to use keyfiles.
Edit: the article mentioned some customization but not at the level of veracrypt still not bad at all. It'll probably really take off after an audit but looks pretty neat. Also seems to have been around for a few years now, earliest article is around 2017, so I guess its not very popular but curious if anyone has experience using it?
Ahh didn't think about laptops with touchscreens just assumed touchpads or mice. That's fair honestly never knew that was a popular way to navigate would assume people just get tablets for that but you make a solid point.
