    Yes.
     
    The Memtest and other stress test software do run. Sometimes for up to or even an hour.
     
    But as I have said, the PC does randomly and spontaneously freeze for no reason. Event Viewer does not return an error at all and just says my PC was shutdown unexpectedly when the freeze happens.

    Okay so I've now noticed the drive disconnecting in Linux as well. When I scan with badblocks, it pops up an endless amount of errors. When I check the log, it seems to be registering error locations from 1-"infinite". So it looks like there could be a bug there. Don't know. Am scanning with MiniTool Partition Wizard in Windows now.

    I will try this. I'll uninstall the driver completely, disable hotswapping and reboot. See if it disconnects.

    Near the end of Youtube videos, there are almost always large obnoxious buttons which block the rest of the video. Whose dumb idea was it to implement these? Anyone know a way to get rid of them?

    That Windoze comment was 1001% sarcasm
     
    btw I looked into Qubes-OS and it's amazing! I've been doing that kind of stuff with VMs on Mint for ages (different VMs for different things - no firewall VMs or Tor or anything fancy like that). Didn't know there was a distro dedicated to VM management like that! I suspect I will be switching over to Qubes in the coming weeks, if I find the time and if it all works well on my hardware.

    I like Windows. It has good secure private feature buttons as well as browsers giving incognito. Bitlocker encryption is also stupendous at keeping your data stable.

    I haven't coded JS in months. Just for your effort in not posting a generic request for help, I have given you 'some code' below. DON'T LOOK AT IT IF YOU HAVEN'T EVEN ATTEMPTED THE TASK. I say that for your sake. You won't learn anything that way and it won't be of any benefit to you. If you're completing this task because you need experience with loops, this is a perfect opportunity for you to learn, without looking at the answer

    I haven't tested to see if it works. I'll leave that up to you. I have intentionally made mistakes.

    create a javascript function called findMinMax. This function should take an array of numbers and return an array with two numbers which are the min and max values of the array that was passed in. Log the returned value to the console.Do NOT use the array sort method or any pre-written min and max javascript functions. You also do not need to write your own sort method to solve this problem unless you want too. It can be solved without sorting the array.
