It’s broken because of anti cheat. I believe it’s possible to use the android version though.

If it can’t own my media, I’m certainly not going to pay for it.

Play around in a virtual machine so you don’t have to worry about messing anything up. Start with the basics such as navigating through directories and creating, editing, and moving files. If you break something, just restore a snapshot.

The maximum real world speed for USB 2 is around 320Mbps or 40MB/s, but that only happens if there is only one device connected to the USB controller. 30MB/s is much more typical.

Not until I can self host my own server.

You typically only have issues if you want to use a newly released card with a distro that doesn’t run a recent kernel or if you want to use GPU compute.

It should be able to run games that support ARM. That means you are pretty much limited to open source games. The CPU clock speed is fairly low, so don’t expect great performance. These systems are intended for heavily multithreaded workloads.

Keeping data centers cool is hard enough on earth. It would be completely impractical in space.

It’s probably best to try that with a live CD.

A Thinkpad T480 would meet those requirements. Stick with the i5 version with integrated graphics to avoid overheating issues.

Or fiber optic cables with gold plated connectors.

If you’re using windows, make sure you set it to show file extensions. Watch out for files with a double extension such as “mkv.exe”. That’s guaranteed to be malware. Don’t open any link, bat or com files either.

Minecraft runs natively on Linux, so it won’t take them long to figure that out.

Wow, I didn’t realize the windows tax was that high. I thought the bulk OEM licensing was significantly cheaper than the retail price.

It could be a game issue. I remember a lot of games had issues with alt-tabbing back when I used windows. It could also be a Wine issue. I had one game that started freezing when alt-tabbing after a Wine update a couple months ago. Rolling back to the previous version fixed it.

You can’t find anything on discord with a web search. You can’t even open it without logging in. Once you’re logged in, good luck finding an answer to a problem that was posted a year or two ago. That’s much worse than reddit.

It could be worse. At least they didn’t move to discord or facebook.

Single core? That must be more like 20 years old now.

Downloading bluray rips will give you the best quality. Any DRM should be removed when it’s ripped. Movies are usually 1.85:1 or 2.39:1 and will be letterboxed since that’s wider than a normal 16:9 TV. You can either crop it out, which will require re-encoding or just zoom in while watching it. A hardware video encoder will make the files larger. I would recommend using software encoding if you have the time.

The remastered version is also incompatible with the 32,000+ mods that have been made for the original version.
