Yes, exactly.

Not only is it insanely power hungry and will drive up electric bill, it’s storage and memory limited, and worst of all, 32-bit.

You wouldn’t be able to run much as far as modern software goes on it, and even then, not for long. You probably won’t even find a working distribution because of the age of the hardware, and the fact that large swaths of 32-bit drivers have been removed from the kernel over the years.

Just chalk it up to being E-Waste, and take it to someplace that will properly recycle it.

New voters who never cared about politics previously, and may have just started paying attention when they to college and realized everyone there does. There’s a precedent for that being the case at least heh

Okay, well they were very clear about it, and they have a pro version, so aren’t removing the customizations that exist.

Secondly, that isn’t a “phone home” bit that you hacked around, it’s literally a header that loads a GitHub badge, and that’s it. It’s part of a lot of open source projects.

Blocking the DNS of the GitHub host it’s calling back to is sufficient enough for everyone if this is a concern (it’s of no security concern, freal), and you don’t need a fork for this to be fixed. Maintaining a fork is an insane amount of work, and trusting someone who is maintaining a forked repo is WAYYYYYY more risky than just using the official repo, which has thousands of stars, and multitudes of users poking through it’s code.

I for one would never touch your forked repo without doing a full diff, and I’m not going to worry about doing that every time a release is missed by you, or a fix isn’t upstreamed…yada yada. I would just use the official repo, and block the offending GitHub domain if I found it offensive, which I don’t.

Know what I mean?

Borden answered the question, but not to any specifics of note. Trump straight made up some idiotic bullshit and said "When I was President, we had ‘the H2O’ ".

I’m sure that will be a new T-shirt for his idiotic followers.

It’s still very subjective to who is making the main CPU, but yeah. It’s meant for low power applications.

No idea who this is, but I can already tell my the fake getup that I do not care to look up whatever persona this guy thought was entertaining. Streamers are terrible.

This only works for specific mechanical failures, and I’d say about 25% of the time. It works because metal shrinks when cold, and this can sort of let a drive limp along for a short period of time to get small amounts of data off.

Drive clicking is the drive arm malfunctioning, and I wouldn’t expect the freezer trick to do much if it’s a messed up actuator or something. You already know the drive is bad though, so why not.

RISC is only for tinkering at this point.

It’s really just for tinkering at this point, or cheap build systems I guess. There’s some small edge cases where the existing instruction set will beat ARM or x86, but they’re very niche. Eventually it’s expected to be a contender to the more optimized stuff we see in ARM chips these days.

It also means that lower courts in practically any state can issue injunctions on federal policy as well, which is going to open the floodgates for crazy. They’ve pretty much just begged everyone to vote Democrat, and get the seating of SC Justices rewritten. That, or pack the court.

Lol I had no idea these guys still had jobs or content. These guys were so wrong about all of their calls back in the day, they were ridiculed for their opinions. This large guy right here stopped getting asked on the news networks because everything he says is ridiculous and reactionary. Of course he’s going to make this video lol

You just ruined my fucking day 😭

What you’re describing is data TRANSFER. Bad sector detection and management is done by the drive controller firmware.

Did you read the article? Obviously not.

The ACLU is involved to challenge one specific motion related to illegal surveillance. They are not providing the defense for a neo-nazi.

So, y’know…maybe read next time.

Affected your user and not the system as a whole, yes.

If you want to be a hyper technical dick like the other person responded, the old way to refer to the term “userspace” is basically anything that doesn’t affect the kernel, HOWEVER, it is now more commonly used to refer to specific local user settings, yes. The old reference was way before people starting writing things to be hyper-local to individual users, as things are arranged now.

It doesn’t have anything to do with the distro. With that many files, you’re torturing the hell out of your disks, and your machine’s memory. Depending on how the code is written, it depends on if this is a filesystem scan of the folders that are then imported to a local db which is looked up to go back and find the found files, or a simple approach which is to just scan the directory every time you go to open something.

I’d really think about properly organizing your files. If that’s not an option, you can dig into the settings or code and find the hard limits set (probably for a good reason) on the number of files being scanned or imported.

Well, on one-hand, fuck this asshole, who cares?

On the other hand, if this isn’t challenged, it will happen more and more, and to anyone for any reason.

Don’t they all make that claim?

It’s different because it mentions Table Tennis players. Now they just need more money to study regular Tennis, Chess and D&D players then a just BIT more for a comprehensive study. Should keep them in a job for 50 years or so.
