I live in Ohio. I'm 30 years old.

Why are American people so fucking stupid? Nuclear energy is a good thing. Daily reminder:

>Chernobyl has only had 19 proven related deaths
>Fukushima had a 20 foot wall of water
>solar power releases direct radiation off and has killed more people than nuclear
>windmills kill animals, need backup power and have killed people
>hydroelectric is fucking stupid
>coal.....explains itself with millions of deaths

Explain to me what is bad about gen 5 reactors again, I'm drawing a complete blank....

Is this line on my hdd platter normal?

it was making a clicking noise as the head moves back and forth between its 2 extreme positions, so i opened it and found this.

Did my head crash?

What do I install to fix this? Or will I have to replace the head?

It doesn't matter. You opened it and it's not contaminated. Even if you fix the crashing head it's still fucked.
Get a new HDD and restore data from backup.

Alright, /g/. This shit puzzles me. I updated my LG G3 to Marshmallow and suddenly a portion of the screen stops responding to touch. I then downgrade thinking it could be a bug with the new OS and the same shit happens on older OS. Is it a hardware issue then? There are no cracks or damages to the screen.

French lurker here, I keked hard reading the news this morning:

https://blogs.mediapart.fr/jean-pierre-favier/blog/250416/richard-stallman-pionnier-des-logiciels-libres-la-nuit-debout

For those of you who aren't part of the French speaking master-race:

The autist in chief has joined the bunch of other hippie retards who've been protesting and assembling for weeks to denounce muh freedom being murdered by the State and capitalism and think about how to bring about "a better world" (read "let's try communist-grade regime, what could go wrong?").
It all started when our government drafted a law to reform work regulations and make them a bit more 21st century-worthy.
Nobody's really taking them seriously apart from the media trying to push some agenda, they all look like wimpy hippies, can't seem to fucking agree on anything, each group trying to push its own SJW retardation and it's mostly cute to see them talk about police brutality for being pushed a little hard after throwing bricks at and provoking cops for hours.
They drink beer, smoke joints, burn shit and cars, and play-pretend at democracy and it's rather incredible to hear how oppressed they're supposed to be while still being allowed to do all that.
Anyway, I don't have much sympathy in general for this kind of movement but they lost all respect from me the moment they started to destroy public property and shit up public space.

And now the Great Freetard has joined them, I feel like it makes it all slide into the comedy genre.

Holy shit. They are just as bad as Microsoft. Why are LTS operating systems never stable? They had one job. One job not to fuck it up. Mark Shuttleworth is the cancer of Linux.

>how do you manage your DB so that it never gets lost or corrupted?
Backups. I'm looking for cloud solutions right now but I don't know which company to trust, regardless of 256 bit encryption, given the lack of knowledge I don't feel competent enough / have enough money to host a owncloud server.

>how do you prevent people from ever seeing your DB to begin with so they can't just download it and try to get into it as many times as they want?
No idea

>how did you come up with a good master password for your DB?
pic related + additional special characters

>what KeePass-compatible applications do you use to manage your DB?
KeePass2, Keepass2Android

>do you harden your DB with any other precautions such as a key file?
Yes, on my flash drive
