There really should be big signs warning about scams at any place that sells gift cards.

There's no way I will ever buy a phone with a folding screen. They are too fragile.

I think China has more paper rockets than any other country.

MakeMKV is the only cross platform bluray ripper that I'm aware of that will work with any disc. For DVDs, I normally use Handbrake.

That's why I was wondering if they fixed it. It's been quite a while since I've used an Nvidia card.
I've never had any screen tearing issues with AMD cards or Intel integrated GPUs.

Has the Nvidia screen tearing issue been fixed? I've had 2 computers with Nvidia GPUs (GTX 560 Ti & GTX 765M) and they both had awful screen tearing that I couldn't get rid of unless I disabled compositing.

To add it to Firefox search, open about:config and add a boolean value browser.urlbar.update2.engineAliasRefresh set to true. This will allow you to manually add search engines. Then open the search settings and click add. Set the URL to https://www.google.com/search?udm=14&q=%s, give it a name and click "Add Engine".

There are mid range CPUs with 128MB of L3 cache now. A Linux distro like Tiny Core could fit entirely in cache.

Someone got Linux to run on an Intel 4004. It does take over a week to boot though. As long as you can connect a sufficient amount of memory to a CPU, it can boot Linux. If the CPU doesn't support Linux, it can emulate a CPU that does.

I wonder how many issues rewriting everything in another language will create?

That's why you disable their account before telling them they're fired.

In Thunderbird you can move the emails to a local folder and they will be fully downloaded.

That's pretty generous to assume 10% of their users are human.

Just use yt-dlp. It's not hard to use. You just type yt-dlp, paste the video link, and press enter to download the highest quality version.

The stock software will not run in Wine. I would suggest picking hardware that's supported by Piper.

I sure could use an AI that detects and blocks things like AI generated articles and sponsored search results as long as it's open source and runs locally.

With 8GB, you could run any DE without worrying about RAM usage. 2GB DDR2 DIMMs are dirt cheap on ebay, so I would recommend maxing it out while RAM is still readily available. That CPU will still run most modern software at a reasonable speed.

That's a kernel worker for ACPI. It sounds like you may have a driver for something that is misbehaving.

I wonder what CPU it has. You should tear it down and see if you can get some custom code running.

People will just continue pirating those games then.
