I just leave my torrents until deluge starts crashing. If one thing is super popular I’m not gonna stop it from boosting my ratio. Most sit idle with almost no interest 95% of the time.

All auto manufacters use android or some flavor of linux. Kiyundai used Windows CE on my friends old veloster. But if they’re still using it then I’d be shocked.

You can always put them in AP only mode and get a dedicated router running your OS of choice. If your internet speeds suck then anything made in the last 10 years should be plenty. But if you’ve got a gigabit connection and lots of simultaneous connections you may need to find something that’s not bottom of the barrel.

Good news is that gigabit internet has been relatively common for 10+ years so you can find old high end devices for the same price as old shitty ones. WiFi AC routers are basically worthless at this point so finding a nice one cheap isnt an issue. And if you’re using the newer nicer google ones for WiFi then the fact it’s an old slower standard doesn’t matter.

Yes, yes they are.

I’m not qualified to explain this well. But there’s the concept of velocity of money. The higher velocity that’s supposed to mean the economy is doing good. Generally it’s between lots of people so it’s spread out. In this case it’s only between a small handful of companies, and as soon as it starts drying up then bad things can happen really quickly.

A slower CPU sucks, but swapping sucks even more. Is the ram upgradeable? You can get 16gb ddr3 sticks of ram. Idk how much EOL/the ram pocalypse has affected their pricing though.

Apple causes most of the shortages of new process nodes because they almost always buy them LONG before they’re ready. Any time TSMC has a new node they buy out their entire supply for months.

Not this year at least.

Unless the AI bubble pops it’s going to take a long time for companies to scale up production. As long as AI is still in vogue it’s going to gobble up more and more ram.

We should just outlaw realtek. The world would be a better place.

If it’s just steam you can limit your download speed. But 100Mbps is already pretty slow. Is your SSD throttling or failing? Or is the non cache write speed just really that bad?

I would have done the same right now as an adult.

You’re welcome!

Gotta watch the video to find out.

They’re lying.

They’ve been shit since they got bought out.

I’ve only bought from them twice since then, and both times have been awful.

with WSL it runs X11, I’m curious if they’ll ever port wayland to WSL. Probably a lot harder to do than X11.

Namecheap has random number only xyz domains for like a dollar so I have one of those.

You can buy usb to 12v fan adapters for like $8 on Amazon.

But for a pi you don’t need that fan to run at full speed, just the 5V of USB or that header + any sort of a heatsink on the CPU will be plenty.

This meme gets crustier and crustier every time I see it. It’s amazing after all these years people still post this.

Just configure your VM to boot the gparted iso. What virtulization software are you using? If it’s proxmox on your VM there’s the options on the side bar, then boot order. Just untick the main boot drive and only have the CD drive bootable until you’re done resizing.

When you reboot nothing is mounted because it’s off. Boot gparted and it will handle everything.

Boot a gparted iso and resize it from there. Trying to do it command line only, without installing anything is just going to be suffering.
