The CPU in this has no pins, is just contacts on the chip. The pins are in the motherboard, like the new 7000 series Ryzen.

I’d run XFCE themed with Chicago95 in this everyday.

You’d be surprised to know that a 500GB hard drive can be theoretically copied in 1 year with a 16kb/s transfer.

Imagine my mixed emotions when I’ve been doing ‘ls -la’ since I remember and watch someone do ‘ls -al’.

Dell enterprise series of desktops (Optiplex and Precision) are upgradeable with off the shelf parts. The CPU, RAM, SSD, GPU, Network cards, etc. The same way a regular motherboard from any manufacturer does.

For example an Intel Core 8th gen system would POST with any 8th Gen CPU, any type of DDR4 ram and would boot from any disk. You cannot upgrade an 8th gen to a 12th or 14th gen from any brand, the only proprietary properties of these systems are the case or motherboard form factor and the power connectors.

Do you have a spare set up where you can boot up from that same SSD? Literally any laptop would work plug and play and that would rule out the possibility of it being the motherboard on the OP.

Conpwter repair & Insalltion 9s!

I don’t get it, is python dying?

I feel that way with Stock iOS, how ironic…

And also Xiaomi phones. Indeed ironic

I mean OpenWRT runs and actively releases new software for those late 90s hardware.

Vanilla beans are 4908

Edit2: I learned about GSI roms and DSU Sideloading is a thing https://github.com/VegaBobo/DSU-Sideloader

Yeah unfortunately that Custom ROM scene is dying out, I see that plenty of older phones are still supported (e.g. Galaxy Note 3, Samsung S5, kind of all Xiaomis) but newer phones are just a handful of models which its bootloader can be unlocked, and then some of these have support for Magisk and TWRP but sadly no custom ROMs.

Edit: still the ability to root these and unbloat them is better than nothing.

But that’s two keys! End or Home is a single press.

I hate it, basically I have to force myself when I boot into windows to physically disconnect the RJ45 from the back, so it doesn’t replace the boot entries thru an update.

Also for whoever is curious, there’s 100G QSFP28 which has breakdown cables to 4x 25G SFP28, I’m not a networks guy but I think at that point it’s not Ethernet anymore but InfiniBand.

Yeah they would need a breakout cable. And there’s no way in hell they can have a link of 40G via SFP+ to a 10G appliance.

Not if they use GNU nano or that shitty windows notepad.

Hey I do that too!! There’s a skill for moving from 1st to Reverse with the left hand while the right looks for the cup holder with the coffee in hand.
