A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca
- Merkitse K18-sisältö tarpeen mukaan

I went into linux mint. I am certain, CERTAIN, that a windows 10 update probably caused a fundamental HD failure on my old computer. I have hard drives much older and more used than the one I had, yet that HD, which was the main HD I had started to fail. It gave enough life for me to back it up into a massive 14TB backup drive (I keep that one unplugged when not in use) so I didn't lose any data.
But HD failures are rare for me. I am fucking glad I was able to save the data. I need to put that drive to some old fashion electronic recycling.
How were you certain? Drives fail all the time.
