that was probably the issue. drm support in browsers is usually disabled by default on linux, but enabled on windows.
the odd cases where one still didn’t work on linux, a simple useragent addon in firefox to flip it to windows has usually worked.
but then, even when it is working, linux clients often still get a lesser product as the streaming sites like to reserve higher quality video to clients with os-level drm, restricting linux to 720p or even 480p.
and the gerrymandered to hell and back republican state assembly will surely expand public transportation throughout the state to give the elderly who shouldn’t be driving an alternative method of getting around… right?
right?!?!
yeah… didn’t think so.
i know the difference. this was active, in-use memory. the half-dozen dell items uninstalled and their many, many processes, used that much.
I don’t have any more drives to test this out
you have a drive from a budget-tier vendor. it could very easily a glitchy drive. the only way to know is to replace it with something else.
yea. it might be a good time to buy ‘older’ hardware, but ‘refurbs’ that are blessed by microsoft (gen 8+) are already higher in price than they should be.
there’s also a bunch of sellers everywhere selling the old stuff with ‘windows 11’ at stupid high prices, too. i’ve even seen sellers trying to pass off specs like 2nd-4th gens as ‘new’, calling the old chips ‘reclaimed’ or some bullshit.
reads like an old copypasta.
RARs might have been originally sourced from ‘elsewhere’, that place where the first rule is to not talk about it.
i use some of those low power soc laptops, running with lid closed (heat is basically a non-issue), for pihole, white noise, and a few other ‘little’ things. one of 'em is even running stuff in VMs (the rest are debian-based dietpi).
and all the oem bundleware. i knocked-down fresh boot idle active ram usage from 5.5gb to 3.5gb on a new dell desktop just by uninstalling anything that had ‘dell’ in the name.
the same tool that can… uh… ‘remove the waterMark’… yea, that’s it. can Also help keep your soon-to-be-abandoned windowS updated.
that a ryzen 2200g with 16gb ram, nvme, and usb-c is ‘unsupported’ is total bullshit. i just pulled one from service. meanwhile, i just ‘upgraded’ a 10th gen celeron desktop, and some even-worse gemini lake laptops, all with hdd (except one with a massive 64gb emmc chip) to 11.
(that ryzen is now rocking silverblue and looking for a new forever home)
it pretty much depends on what their distribution agreements have in them–there could be something in there that requires monthly or longer terms for subscribers. if there isn’t, there sure af will be from now on for streaming services carrying ‘cable’ channels
it’s not happening ‘after’. ytdlp is likely downloading a higher quality file than what the browser or app is receiving for streaming.
cinnamint is great. i think you may have already found what to put on the ‘main pc’.
if you’re at all interested in ‘atomic’ variants, kinoite is what is running a couple of kde desktops here.
either one meets or exceeds the requirements you posted for the game.
note that if you’re able to shop in person at microcenter, many more options are available, including their own brand of prebuilts (powerspec) and custom-builds assembled in-store.
could need a hell of a lot more, if the grifter|liar|pedo|cheater-in-chief dare veto legislation to (re)open the government.
overriding a veto takes more support in congress than just evicting the shitstain from the white house.
nah, no profits here… just more ‘contributions’ to the ‘library’
the annoying bit for me is when they edit in the re-recorded audio and it’s not quite in sync with the video, or has odd inflection or loudness changes from one line to the next–obviously taken from different takes.
it was… is PA still around?
