After reading more about badblocks and S.M.A.R.T., I'm actually a bit confused about how it's possible that a drive that severely damaged (80% of blocks are bad!) is passing its SMART test.

I'm running a long test now to see if it's just the normal test that missed it, but I'm curious if anyone has insight. It's not a high priority or anything (everything is backed up and it's not my main computer). I'm just curious how errors that egregious weren't detected.

So today Lion was kind enough to be computer support to my father ๐Ÿ’

Android15 beta 3 - Private space is missing for me. For me, there is still one tab saying "Security & privacy", and the option is not there.

When I type private space in the search bar on the home screen, I don't find it there.

When I search within settings, I don't find it there either. any help / any tips for me? thank you.
