Sounds like you're just not big on bananas

I like to make banana milk with those really brown bananas. In fact, I let them age just so they are nice and sweet.

I take 1 or 2 bananas, break them in chunks and put them in a measuring cup that holds around 1L, add a bit of vanilla extract, fill with milk to cover banana chunks, blend with a stick blender until smooth, fill milk to the top, blend a bit more just to mix everything, done. Serves one (me) or two (regular) people.

Theres a difference between addicts and junkies. Junkies have my empathy but I really understand why someone wouldn't want to spend prolonged times in the same space with one.

Living in a 2 room apartment. So one living room, one bedroom, one bathroom, a kitchen, and a small hallway. About 65sqm/700sqf total. This is a major city in Europe, and I live outside the center, but not really on the outskirts either.

I mean, free usually implies a shittier version, no? So it could very well just be incomplete.

Funnily enough I heard mechanic friends say that EVs need the brake rotors replaced more often than combustion cars, because the EVs use the brakes so infrequently that the rotor just rusts so badly it needs replacing.

That's still super low cost compared to all the regular repairs a combustion engine needs, especially when you consider that combustion cars also need tire replacements, just a bit less often

You're looking at the wrong numbers. Most people won't notice the difference in transfer speeds for large files. Most people will notice boot and loading times, where the results are diminishing.

Let's take a theoretical system that has an HDD and boots in around 30 seconds.

It gets upgraded with an SSD. According to your numbers, the Boot time would be better by a factor of around 3 or maybe 4, making the Boot only take around 10 seconds. That's a difference of 20 seconds, clearly noticeable.

Now it gets upgraded to an nvme drive. The speed increases by an even greater factor of around 7 or so, but you barely notice that because the PC only boots 7 seconds or so faster, much less noticeable than the 20 second difference before, despite the drives being blazing fast in comparison.

I'm not saying nvmes are worthless or anything. Just that in day to day use for most people its not as noticeable as the HDD to SSD upgrade.
