PoW is indeed an interesting solution to protect against DDoS in some situation, like how Tor Onion Services does it.

Not all applications of PoW are bad.

I usually stick to 1080p medium for movies and TV shows I want to rewatch, 720p for the stuff I’ll watch once.

For movies I try to stick to a 2-5GB filesize, and TV shows between 200-400MB per episode.

Much worse then Microsoft licenses.

Having to deal with the clusterfuck that is MS Licensing for their products in the cloud, not even close.

I wasn’t using a VPN last time the download didn’t work, but it might have something to do with me using NextDNS and blocking some of their tracking stuff that way.

Unless you compare the checksum is a match from the ones from Microsoft.

Microsoft will switch off Recall by default after security backlash

please hack it the fuck out so that it gets canned asap.

There’s uBO Lite, which is an MV3 version so one step towards making adblockers less useful as Google planned.

I wish I had this to pair my bluetooth game controller on Lakka at the time, that seems way more intuitive.

Personally use Ventoy for non-Linux ISOs (ie: Windows), and everything else Linux-y I install through the netboot.xyz ISO image with Ventoy. I rarely need to update my USB stick that way, and most systems I have to deal with have access to the Internet.

You can also use a VoIP service to send and receive SMS.

That’s the kind of movie that definitely doesn’t need a sequel, as much as I liked the original…

I think it’s beehaw doing something weird, it got federated to other instances just fine

You can even use Markdown file and convert it dynamically to HTML using javascript through Markdeep by just dropping

<!-- Markdeep: --><style class="fallback">body{visibility:hidden;white-space:pre;font-family:monospace}</style><script src="markdeep.min.js"></script><script src="https://casual-effects.com/markdeep/latest/markdeep.min.js?"></script><script>window.alreadyProcessedMarkdeep||(document.body.style.visibility="visible")</script>

at the end of the markdown file. It makes it dead simple to update using a text editor later on and to host on a static website.

Win+V works decently enough for me.

At that price point not really, and there is definitely going to be some tradeoffs required between power vs consumption vs price.

Not sure where you’re shopping, but I can’t find it below $200 for 16GB of RAM.

I don’t think there’s anything on the market that checks all the boxes for a $140 budget.
