That’s impossible. He would be too busy telling everyone that he uses Arch to get any work done.

That uses proof of work rather than just detecting and blocking the bots.

Dual booting on separate drives is safe, especially if you unplug the windows drive while installing Linux so you can’t accidentally mix them up. Just don’t mess with the windows drive from Linux. It’s probably encrypted if you’re running windows 11 anyways.

Some MediaTek WiFi cards are not supported. I had to replace one in a laptop.

That would only help if they are still seeded when you need them. Torrents for something like individual TV episodes usually won’t have seeds for very long after the season pack gets released.

OK, let me know when I can buy a TV the size of an IMAX screen to take advantage of that resolution.

Mod Organizer 2 works great with wine and proton. Installation is a bit complicated though. The recent versions of MO2 require wine 9 or newer.

The GPU won’t have any issues encoding several video streams at the same time. That’s not really necessary though. The cameras will do the encoding for you. Just set the bitrate and framerate that you want on the camera and pass that through. Most cameras support two streams, the secondary stream is usually limited to SD though. All of my Hikvision cameras support RTSP. It’s mostly just the consumer grade crap that only works with the manufacturers cloud service so they can spy on you or restrict features whenever they want.

Don’t make the mistake I did and buy any Hikivision stuff from Amazon. They are all grey market and the firmware can’t be updated. I tried to update one of mine and now the user interface is stuck in Chinese. You have to get them from an authorized distributor.

It’s working fine here. Are you sure you didn’t get a fake version of the site?

Edit from MS-DOS still came with Windows XP and I think it was in 7 too. Did they remove it in later versions?

The only real solution is to always keep your source files. PDFs are not intended to be edited.

I just keep all of my music in an NFS share on my NAS and play it with Rhythmbox or VLC. I keep a compressed copy on the SD card in my phone to listen to when I’m not home.

I ran Damn Small Linux on it about 15 years ago. That worked pretty well and it would even run a web browser. It would probably boot Tiny Core Linux, but there wouldn’t be much RAM left to run any programs. The motherboard supports 128MB, but it’s not really worth the cost to upgrade it though.

I may see about resurrecting that computer. I’ve got an old Motorola police radio that I would like to reprogram to operate in the 2M ham band and I think that PC will run the programming software.

If you only need 2D, there is LibreCAD.

I’ve run Linux on a 166MHz Pentium with 64MB of RAM. There’s not much modern software that will run on that hardware though.

The power usage will be a bit higher, but it will also have higher performance. They can have 2.5G ethernet and a couple of NVMe SSDs. The Raspberry Pi 5 only has one lane of PCIe 2.0, so it will be very bandwidth limited if you use a PCIe switch to connect a 2.5G NIC and an SSD.

There are also a lot of mini PCs that are comparable in price to a Raspberry Pi 5 once you factor in the cost of a case, SD card, and power supply for the Pi.

Make sure you have a font installed that supports emoji such as the Noto emoji font.

The last movie I watched in a theater was Top Gun Maverick.

There haven’t been many good movies lately. It’s been 3 years since there was one good enough for me to watch in a theater. Hollywood has just been producing large volumes of low quality crap lately.

Most of the music I listen to is from the 70’s through the 90’s. I already have just about everything I want to listen to.
