that’s great! i’ve personally never done it, but have heard people struggling with widevine binary blob from chromeos(?) and being stuck in low resolution, etc


any recent-ish intel machine should do, i’d suggest around kaby lake or newer for the igpu’s hw decoding capabilities. beware that netflix streaming may not work so well with linux and stuff because of shitty drm.


my keyboard/mouse, face towels


kinda unrelated but check out midnight commander (mc). switch views using alt-t and change to shell with ctrl o.
ah you’re right. home->pro works but pro->home requires some hack. (iirc on registry and then slmgr commands)
actually you don’t need reinstall for switching edition since win10 (except enterprise ltsc and a few)
gotta just enter the license key and it auto changes
i have really bad short term memory, i already use photos and audio recordings a lot and keep a diary. it might be kinda useful for this purpose tbh but it does feel creepy so i don’t really want one.


yuru camp, it’s like the first anime i literally fell asleep while trying to watch


not OP but i’m curious of your channel recommendations. please share some :)


hi, young person here. stuff my ‘techie’ friends talk about are at best the latest apple iphone/macbook or LLM stuff which is quite boring. honestly there’s nothing interesting in tech these days so that’s probably why.


to me those 3 all seems like valid problems still.
obesity may be solved in a few decades but is still ongoing.

recently i’ve seen it being used for reverse engineering, seemed like a pretty good usecase.


i usually connect two machines with tailscale and use ssh forwarding
use autossh if you want auto reconnect after ssh disconnects with broken pipe


nah, even 4chan is actually heavily moderated


yep, i used to use this behind a cgnat. being a broke kid i couldn’t have another machine with exposed ports proxy things


i think you subscribe to the wrong comms. i hardly see any reddit reposts.
don’t get software from random sites and use your package manager with distro provided repo only
