The Coldplay CEO incident? It has been on every news outlet and social.

The BTRFS users are relying on backup systems, so make sure you have extensive backups as power failures can happen at any moment, etc. For me personally, a files system that so easily corrupts files, especially when power failures occur frequently, is not what I want. I will stick with ext4, a log file system, which is more stable.

I don't think you can switch filesystems with files in place, sorry.

It did it first on my PC, then it happened again on my laptop. That is when I investigated the cause and found out BTRFS corrupts on hard shutdowns/failures. Beyond maybe a UPS battery backup that will allow you to MAYBE have some extra time to shut down properly before the battery fails, no. I would highly recommend backing up your data and reformatting to ext4.

Are you using BTRFS as your file structure? If so, this is the little dirty secret the BTRFS fans don't like to discuss. It is well documented in the BTRFS wiki, that during power-outages/power fails, even OS errors, files become corrupt under BTRFS. I finally had enough of this happening to me (lots of power outages where I live,) and switched back to ext4, never had this issue again.

Edited post to include a couple of documentaries.

It is in the body of the post.

I suppose it would have given a new meaning, or a different understanding, of the chaos in the film. Come to think of it (been a long time since I have seen the film) I can't remember if there was a slant to any one religion injected in the film. Seems like it was very vaguely worded, 'passing over to the other side,' 'angry spirits,' and the 'beast.'
