I would say around 15 years ago, it was Windows XP

But it did MOST of the times…

Oh, I don’t know how it is nowadays, I have switched to Linux since many years ago…

Very often sfc /scannow will ask for an installation media, which, in a corporate environment, means sending the machine to onsite support for either “fixing” or “reimaging”. It’s basically the command you should try first if you don’t want to help someone fixing the issue. “See? There is something wrong with your installation, you should fix that before doing anything else…”

I used that trick a few times myself to get rid of poorly behaving people.

I would recommend to pay a visit to Wipeout Phantom Edition.

It’s an enhanced PC port that uses the original assets from the Playstation CD and I had a lot of fun with it on my deck a few months ago…

No, it’s Ryan Howard.

That is a good point… on average it’s around 500Mb of RAM usage, between 0.5% and 1% of CPU (it’s a 2.4Mhz four cores).

Space is 5Gb, mainly media files accumulated over two years.

So overall, not bad.

I’ve been self-hosting Matrix Synapse for more than two years to chat friends and family and it has been rock-solid and it’s on a VPS that os hosting a Nextcloud and Lemmy instance as well. It is definitely not really resource hungry for small groups of people.

If you want to try again this route, just make sure that everybody saves a backup of their keys as the messages are all encrypted and while you can authenticate a new client installation from another client that the same user is logged in, some people - like my mother - only use one, on her phone, which is understandable.

So in summary, I’m very happy with it! :)

Yep, I definitely look like him!

I remember when I did the switch in 2008 and never looked back. I had a similar experience where across a few years I have been trying different distributions and finally settled on Lubuntu. Years have passed and different machines as well. Now my main driver is a Steam Deck with his Arch based OS and a secondary pure Arch on a sd card for more specific tasks.

Linux made my life more comfortable and relaxed, without even mentioning secure. My family uses Linux now, Windows is long dead.

We are free.

I cannot see any tests…

As stated from official Valve’s page https://www.steamdeck.com/en/oled

“Use your Deck as a PC, because it is one.” So Valve did market it as a PC and it’s one of the reasons I bought one more than a year ago. And it’s really my desktop (that I bring with me to places occasionally)c

We should stop allowing priests to touch people. I think they have already touched more than enough…

There are and have been many of these around for many years now!

I’ve been using “Unexpected Keyboard” for quite a while and very happy with it!
