Used cars are going to get much more valuable with all the enshitified crap they keep putting in new cars.

The easiest way to get lossless music is to buy a CD and rip it. Of course you can always sail the high seas too. 🏴☠️
There is potting compound with high thermal conductivity for things that produce a lot of heat. A YubiKey hardly uses any power, so heat should not be an issue.
The main downsides of potting are that it makes repair practically impossible and it can add a lot of weight if there is a large volume to be filled.
Encasing the circuit board in epoxy. It makes it very difficult to access components without destroying it. It’s also great for water proofing and increasing the mechanical robustness.
For the price they charge, they should be made so that opening the case will destroy the contents. They could have at least potted them.
Donate to FOSS developers if you find the software useful, but don’t give a cent to big tech companies.
Modern games are not going to run well. Look for a Thinkpad with a Thunderbolt 3 port (make sure it actually has 4 PCIe lanes, some only have 2) and use an eGPU. Retro games will run fine on integrated graphics though.
It doesn’t even matter if it’s a trusted seller. Amazon puts their returned items back with the new products and they stock the items from every seller together. You can have 10 sellers with a genuine item and 1 with a counterfeit item and have a chance of getting the counterfeit item from any of them because they all share the same stock.
That works until the battery puffs up and cracks the screen. Phones don’t last long when plugged in 24/7. Also keep in mind that WiFi cameras can easily be jammed.
It used to, but it’s had the option to save an actual video for a long time now.
I would just print it, fill it out by hand and scan it. Make them do the extra work if they send a PDF that doesn’t work in your software.
That’s what happens when you don’t keep windows locked inside a virtual machine.
Most devices generate a random IPv6 address and change it frequently. Your browser fingerprint is much more useful for device tracking than your IP address anyways.
Just because each device has a globally routable IP address doesn’t mean they can be accessed from outside your LAN. You still have to add a firewall rule to open a port to the device.
Arch is about as minimal as you can get. You won’t even have a text editor if you don’t specifically install one. You won’t be able to connect to the internet to install that text editor if you don’t install the software to configure the network connection either. I made that mistake the first time I installed Arch.
It’s only decent until you need to do something the GUI doesn’t support. Then it will overwrite whatever you changed in the CLI or luci every time it boots up.
10,000 and 15,000 rpm drives were made obsolete by SSDs and were discontinued several years ago. They are slower than many modern 7,200 rpm drives.
They aren’t patching CPUs that were released 5 years ago.
They should be patching back to Ryzen 1 since those are still perfectly good CPUs. 5-7 years really isn’t that old considering how little improvement there is with each generation.
Kodi doesn’t do any transcoding. It just mounts the NFS share and plays the file.
BSD works great on my firewall, but I’m certainly not going to run it on my desktop. The hardware and software support just isn’t there yet.
