Can it dance dance dance and dance dance dance?

All amounts to the same thing.

That’s what I’ve been saying while you’ve been insisting that not choosing is somehow a third option. It’s not. It ends up being effectively “didn’t pull the lever”.

You seem desperate not to make the choice but the responsibility for that lack of choice still lies with you.

I haven’t chosen or refused to choose anything. I’m here to talk about your flawed interpretation of the trolley problem, nothing more.

Just as you were in a position to choose trump or Harris. So trump is as much your fault for failing to vote a viable alternative. As if you had chosen to vote him. Just because do not like either option dose not forgive you the effect of not choosing.

It seems you’re incapable of staying on topic so I am no longer interested in having a discussion with you.

You really seem to be failing to understand. And simple typos are easy to read around. I’m visually impaired so have little patience for that excuse.

It would probably help if the statement made sense to being with.

Pull or don’t pull. If you pull 1 person dies. If you don’t 5 die. There is no don’t kill.

“5 people die” is not the same as “I killed 5 people”. There is no option to kill the 5 people. They’re already dead unless you murder someone to save them.

As the guy in the signal box.

There’s no signal box nor is there verbiage in the trolley problem that implies you work for the railroad. You’re just a guy in a position to pull the lever. There’s no outside obligation to do anything at all.

Not voting leaves you with trump. Because you live in a fptp nation where 3rd parties just reduce the opposing vote.

I understand you want to crowbar the trolley problem into your metaphor about voting but I’m trying to stay on topic and discuss the problem itself.

Because the thought experiment recognises you live in a system where you have to make choices based on facts not your hopes and wishes.

No is not. It’s based on personal morality, whether an individual is willing to murder someone to save 4 others. The whole thing could be boiled down to “do the ends justify the means?”

Where you do not get to dobt murder someone.

I’ve read this like 6 times and I can’t figure out what you’re trying to to say so I can’t respond to it.

By some how inventing the dont murder somone option.

If you don’t pull the lever you haven’t murdered anyone. The person who tied them to the tracks murdered them. You were just standing there.

Just because you dont like it. Dos not mean you get to invent your own interpretations.

I’m interpreting it the way it’s written. There’s only 2 possibilities, murder one person or let 4 die by not murdering that person. “I choose not to decide” is the latter. It’s not a third option. There is no third option.

Hence why the trolly problem is equivalent to a political vote. Not voting has the same effect as not making a choice between one or 5.

There is no “not making a choice” in the trolley problem. You either don’t murder someone, or you murder someone and rationalize it. Those are the only two possible options. Creating a third option out of thin air is exactly what I was describing when I said people often misinterpret it.

I actually hate how the trolley problem is misinterpreted. It’s not a question of “will you kill one person or kill 5?”. If you pull the lever, you are murdering somebody. If you do nothing, you killed no one, whoever put them on the tracks killed them. Whether it’s morally acceptable to murder one person in order to save 5 is an interesting thought experiment but that’s all it is.

Maybe a system that regularly gives us “evil vs lesser evil but still evil” as our only options isn’t worth saving

VDI is fairly common, but it has is own set of problems

The software run inside of wine makes windows system calls, which wine translates into *nix system calls. That’s not what native means. If that software was native it wouldn’t need wine.

You know that running through a compatibility layer isn’t native whether you call it an emulator or not?

That’s not what natively means

It absolutely does, compared to 2001ish when I first started playing around with Linux. But I had issues like this on Debian, earlier this year, on a Dell of all things which should use the most basic bone-stock drivers you can find. Draugr wouldn’t even boot after install on that machine.

I buy a new house. Everything looks great, I move in, go to bed. The next morning my hot water doesn’t work. The house’s documentation doesn’t cover this, so I go online. When I ask for help on forums people tell me to RTFM and call it a skill issue. I end up finding 500 different ways of fixing the hot water, filter through the 499 that don’t apply to my particular build. When I’m done the cold water doesn’t work either. I decide I’ll fix it later and head to the front door to go to work. It won’t open. Something I did trying to fix the water broke it somehow. I give up and just use the windows instead.

I bet you’re one of those dorks who replaces the S with a dollar sign when you write “Microsoft”

Is this what whipping the llamas ass looks like?

That’s great, glad to hear it. Start doing backups too!

Hyper-v is bundled with windows now and is just as easy to use as virtualbox (slightly easier for windows guests since the drivers are bundled in the os)

If the disk is failing anything you do that reads or writes it could cause data loss. Even having it plugged in and powered potentially could. It depends on what component of it is failing.

That being said, fsck is pretty safe. It’s the equivalent of chkdsk in windows, it looks specifically at the filesystem for things that may have gotten screwy.

ddrescue/gddrescue is your best bet for recovery. It can detect bad blocks and skip them, and it has some p robust resuming capabilities if your disk locks up while.its running. I usually use it to clone entire physical disks to another disk or an image file that can be mounted. I don’t know if it can be used to grab specific files, I’ve never tried.

If it was me, I’d take the disk out and let it cool to room temperature. Then I’d ddrescue the whole thing, with resume turned on, to an image file. Then I’d run fsck. If fsck finds and recovers filesystem issues, I’d put it back in the pi, continue using it, and start doing regular backups of important files via a cron task.

If you think it’s the filesystem try running fsck. It sounds like a failing storage device to me but there’s not nearly enough information to say for sure

Literally just an opinion and people are down voting you for it
