They haven’t been selling anything that cheap since the AI driven hard drive shortage. A refurbished 12TB drive is around $200 now.

Windows XP is really lightweight. As long as your CPU supports VT-x or AMD-V, the VM will run fine.

Different games use different types of DRM. If the game just uses the basic Steam DRM, you can remove it with Steamless. If it uses something else, you have to wait for someone to crack it or for a DRM free release.

CGNAT is a nasty hack to work around the shortage of IPv4 addresses. It’s not used with IPv6.

There would be nothing for one to connect to out here. There’s no WiFi except mine and no cell service unless you go outside.
I would probably desolder the antenna if I was in the city though.

Mine has never been connected to the internet.

It’s DNS over TLS.

There are a number of NPUs that plug into an m.2 slot. If those aren’t powerful enough, you can just use an eGPU.
I would rather not have to pay for an NPU that I’m probably not going to use.

The price of DDR4 has tripled over the last year. It’s still not as bad as DDR5 though.

This is one of the many reasons why you should never used cloud based cameras.

Keep your cameras and DVR on an isolated network with no internet access. Use a VPN if you need to access it remotely.

The torrent client also verifies the checksum for each chunk and automatically redownloads any corrupted chunks. With a direct download, you would have to manually verify the checksum and redownload the whole thing if it’s corrupted.

Having the buffers separate is useful because you can have two different things copied at the same time.

You could try. There are lots of open issues and the last commit was 5 years ago. It may have been abandoned.

I looked up the site on archive.org, but they don’t have any of the documentation pages archived. It looks like the documentation was just auto generated by gtk-doc, so you could clone the repo, install gtk-doc and generate the same documentation that was on the web site.

The domain registration probably expired. It’s pretty common for someone to buy up expired domains and point them to crap like that.

Thin clients are good if you don’t need much storage. They usually don’t have any way to add more except for USB.

Middle click paste is extremely useful. Why would anyone want to disable it?

The AI data centers and crypto miners should be paying much higher rates than everyone else.

You can keep the rootkits to yourself.

That can be done with Apt-Cacher NG. It’s a proxy server that caches .deb packages. It really speeds up updates if you have multiple computers that are using the same packages.

I use 100°C for ASA. The recommended bed temperature for the Sunlu filament I have is 90-110°C.
