Hello people I recently acquired an old(er) laptop through my workplace. I was initially planning on running a Pi-hole on it but after installing it I noticed that my router is causing issues with the Pi-hole so I gave up on that idea.
Now if I were to decide on dedicating it for piracy, would I be able to do anything that isn’t viable on a general use PC that would make it less likely for these piracy activities to have legal and/or financial ramifications on me? Or would it be no different than using the PC I use for my everyday stuff?
Compared to what options options?
PC desktop? Usually about 25% less power.
Commercial equipment? Home users are normally using older equipment that sucks a lot of power.
NUC? Laptop is probably more power.
Generally speaking the “newness” of any given hardware is the key factor in power to performance ratios (such to say a newer chip will generally be more energy efficient than and older one, per calculation performed)
