I always buy new because time spent fixing a problem or recovering data with a used drive ain’t worth it to me. It may be to you. A manufacturer refurb might be ok, in fact I do buy refurb monitors sometimes, but not data storage.

LibreWolf is the answer to your troubles.
Nothing to forgive, I love hearing about cool stuff people did with their Amigas! Thanks for sharing.
Audio on the Amiga was way ahead of its time. I had a device for my A500 that you could plug in an RCA cable and sample audio. I plugged my VCR into it and recorded all the best lines from Aliens and some other movies and shared them with my friends. Game over man, game over!
And I like to fire up my Amiga emulator and play some of my old mods once in a while. They still sound good.
It is genius, but it wasn’t my idea. We stand on the shoulders of giants!
I use Cloudflare as my registrar and public DNS. And only for that. Sorry but they don’t get to peek at my network traffic.
I change my own moto tires. Want to share a neat trick I learned way late into my journey.
If you’re having trouble getting the bead to seat, wrap a ratchet strap around the circumference of the tire and tighten a bit to keep the whole tire squashed onto the rim. Doesn’t take much, just enough to maintain contact. That bead will pop on like nobody’s business after that.
I love it. I haven’t done that yet, waiting for retirement when I don’t need to use my brain anymore. Just in case. 😁
Hopefully more of the same moments!
On a scale from 2 bags of doritos to holding onto the grass in the front yard so you don’t fall off the planet, how high are you right now?
On-premises. Please, for the love of god.
It’s fun and I enjoyed my time with it, but once you understand how the zombie waves work it’s very, very easy to build a cheez defense against them, and then there’s no difficulty anymore.
As long as you don’t look up guides on how to build the cheese bases you’ll enjoy yourself.
They are making Cloud Microsoft sysadmins, as opposed to on-premises sysadmins. Which means the new crop of admins are just high tier application admins, and have no idea how to manage infrastructure, configure hardware, or actually troubleshoot problems with the application, since they don’t have access to it at that level. All of this makes businesses more and more reliant on the cloud, which is exactly what these providers want.
These companies are so short sighted. They are destroying the ability for the people who might push this software for use in a business environment to use it at home, test it out, learn it. This depletes the pool of experts and supporters that would expand their product’s use over time.
Microsoft and VMware are the worst offenders at the moment. I feel if you’re a competent on-premises Microsoft sysadmin you’ll have work for the rest of your life, because they aren’t MAKING on-premises Microsoft sysadmins anymore.

This guy thinks we can control volcanoes.
Now it’s a B(arbie) Strom!
The secret is to just not give a shit.
Dethrones? No. Not in the sense it will overtake Windows in numbers.
Grows its gamer ‘market share’? Absolutely.
Hate to say it but I agree with bilb, you might need to stick with windows. I tried Linux on a hybrid graphics laptop a few years ago and it was a disaster. I did get a handful of games to work but nothing that would actually push the graphics card. It was more trouble than it was worth.
I know it doesn’t help you, but on desktop with AMD it’s been smooth sailing .
All well and good until you lose another disk 2 days into re-striping. Which is not that uncommon because that puts a lot of load on the surviving disks! Remember, RAID is not a backup.
