This is your regular PSA to learn the “over-under method” of rolling cables!

Coiling a cable the ‘normal’ way, whether just in your hands, around your elbow, or somewhere else, imparts a 1/2 axial twist to the cable each time.
That’s the main thing that causes your extension cables to develop kinks and degrade!
If you use the over-under method, the 1/2 twist is counteracted by a -1/2 twist every second loop, so the cable is kept flat and unstressed.
This can hugely increase the lifetime of your electrical cables, to upwards of 20 years of heavy use, without kinks or twists.

If you ever deal with making bootable USBs, get Ventoy! Ventoy is a bootable USB system that you install once (via easy and working commands), and then any time you want to boot an image, you just throw the ISO file directly onto the USB FAT partition.
No repartitioning, no setting bootable flags, no dd, no UEFI detection debugging. It works on UEFI and BIOS.

You just boot to Ventoy, which displays a nice (and themeable) list of all your ISOs, and select which one you want to boot.

No more keychain of 5 bootable USBs for different OSes. No more “damn, I wrote over that installer and now I want to use it again”.

I have one USB stick, with my general data transfer partition, bootable Ventoy, and the ISOs for Mac, windows, five different linux flavours, memtest86+, rescatux, clonezilla, etc.
