It won’t officially work, but it’s not too hard to get it going. I just moved a similar box to 24H2 LTSC.
OP, you’ll probably need to run “setup.exe /product server”, or follow a recent guide. You’ll also need to do this for every major upgrade (i.e. yearly)
I agree though with the plan to use this as a test ground. I also recently upgraded a Lubuntu system to similar specs, and it runs pretty smoothly. But learning Linux takes a lot of time they don’t have.
This isn’t the first time a company has used this approach. Apple users will always pay (be charged) more. I suspect the same is true for mobile users vs desktop.
But with AI being applied, there will be a TON of variables, just like your car insurance. You probably won’t even be able to identify most of them. For instance, which ISP are you using? What time of the day are you shopping?
What else does your browser fingerprint say about you? What about when they link it to Facebook, even without your knowledge or consent? Will gay people (or women, or Mexicans, or any other group) pay more?
Kroger owns a bunch of other brands. Do you have one of them in your market, and it’s just a branding difference?
The big caveat is that the BIOS must allow it, and most released versions do not.
What is your use case? I ask because ESXi is free again, but it’s probably not a useful skill to learn these days. At least not as much as the competition.
Similarly, 2.5" mechanical drives only make sense for certain use cases. Otherwise I’d get SSDS or a 3.5" DAS.
An interesting headline, but the details muddy the waters:
In 2024, California boasted 178,500 total EV ports compared to around 120,000 estimated gas nozzles
The commission estimates that more than 162,000 chargers are Level 2, which can provide roughly 14 to 35 miles of range per hour of charging, and nearly 17,000 are considered fast chargers
More than 700,000 Level 2 chargers are installed across the state in single-family homes
For those unaware, level 2 chargers are the type you typically see in parking garages and at hotels. These are useful when you are at your destination, and the car can charge for 8 hours while you sleep/work/enjoy the attraction. They are simple and cheap, and how the vast majority of charging should be done.
Level 3 (DC Fast Chargers) are the type you usually see at truck stops and the like. They are expensive, complicated, and frequently break. These are useful when you are going to be waiting around for it to charge.
Thinkpads are extremely well documented. For how to repair/replace parts, you need the HMM. Just Google for “Thinkpad t14 Gen 1 HMM” and you should find the official PDF on their site. That will tell you, step by step, how to replace the keyboard.
As for the part itself, you can again check Lenovo’s site for all compatible parts (FRUs) and find the item number and details. While I wouldn’t recommend buying directly from them due to cost, this should give you the information needed to find it elsewhere. eBay has tons of Thinkpads being sold for parts, and many of these will be parted out. You should have no issues finding what you’re looking for.
They all have to work (at least to an extent) using only x1. It’s part of the PCIe spec.
Missing pins are actually extremely common. If your board has a slot that’s x16 (electrically x8), which is very common for a second video card, take a closer look. Half the pins in the slot aren’t connected. It has the full slot to make you feel better about it, and it provides some mounting stability, but it’s electrically the same as an x8 that’s open.
USB the protocol, or just uses a USB cable? If it’s not using the protocol, the cables are a cheap way of getting cables of a certain spec.
This can get a bit complicated with federation. This community is hosted on LW. I am accessing it via sopuli.xyz, and you via feddit.uk. All (presumably) have full bidirectional federation with each other.
When I hit send, this message will go to Sopuli’s outbox, which will then sync to LW for this community. At that point, this post will live on LW’s servers. Anyone accessing LW directly can see it, even if Sopuli were to go down. Later (probably less than a minute), LW will sync to Feddit.uk, at which point you will be able to see it.
Note that this is for text posts only. There have been some changes around images and video, both for bandwidth and liability reasons.
I think you have that backwards. Shitty and enshittified devices have to connect to a web service, because you can’t communicate with them directly behind NAT.
That said, the two are largely unrelated. You could usually setup port forwarding, and IPv6 is common. But the real reason it gets enshitified is because of profits to be had by making it a subscription service.
I post this every time someone is looking for “free speech”, and it has been completely relevant every single time.
The odds of you getting your own IPv4 address are pretty low, unless seedboxes have very different rules than I’d expect. Presumably you have a shared IP behind NAT, and they forward ports (not unlike a good VPN)
In that case, they would need the IP address, incoming port, and a very specific timestamp.
This is almost always relevant as soon as someone complains about free speech, censorship, etc:
Correct me if I’m wrong, but aren’t most of them available as containers? Why would you need any hypervisor support beyond containers?
I know it’s not the question you asked, but you can probably replace that with something more modern very easily. Check pawn shops, estate sales, auctions, thrift shops, etc. You can also try dumpster diving around colleges when people move out in May.
Given that the largest CRT ever made was 42", and you obviously have something smaller, it shouldn’t be hard to find a suitable replacement. LCDs have been the standard for about 20 years now. Plenty of old stock that people are upgrading from.
Many of them are. They are just a slightly customized browser, locked to their mobile website. If they’re being saucy, they may implement techniques to only display the site to their own browser.
To continue with this, there is currently a major court battle to identify users that posted on a piracy subreddit, and there will be more, similar cases.
OP has been very vague about what you’re trying to do, which is good - Nintendo, Adobe, Sony, etc can’t reasonably claim to be victims to get a court order. But if there are other links to them, including other posts, there could be orders to unmask in order to show intent.
Also, be sure to run extensive burn in tests before deploying for production use. I had an entire batch from GoHardDrive fail on me during that testing, so my data was never in danger.
I did this back in the days of Smoothwall, ~20 years ago. I used an old, dedicated PC, with 2 PCI NICs.
It was complicated, and took a long time to setup properly. It was loud and used a lot of power, and didn’t give me much beyond the standard $50 routers of the day (and is easily eclipsed by the standard $80 routers of today). But it ran reliably for a number of years without any interaction.
I also didn’t learn anything useful that I could ever apply to something else, so ended up just being a waste of time. 2/10, spend your time on something more useful.
