Not even one of those points will accelerate Linux adoption to being with a decade of the snowballing level at which point it could Dethrone Windows.
You been drinking some absinthe or smoking the ganja-weed?
Or just straight up snorting Flakka

Might we considered there may be a tiny difference in scope between an OS and an app like Armory Crate.
Because they’d need to support it or hire an assload of developers to bugfix and contribute to the projects they include in their distro.
And that’s something those companies don’t like doing.
System76 is a hardware vendor specifically created to cater to the Linux sphere.
I guess they mean “how to make buggy messy often usermade Desktop distributions more popular.”
As Linux itself is insanely popular, it’s everywhere and runs everything. From the vast majority of server and network infrastructure to most phones.
Thing is, looking at some games, Horizon and Elden Ring being a prime examples, we can have both great games with great graphics.
You don’t really want better games with worse graphics, you want better games that don’t use great graphics as an excuse to bad gameplay.
This is major league bullshit tho.
On linux, where the config file for a specific program is, can vary annoyingly greatly depending on what distro you’re using and sometimes the same config file exists in several places and somehow certain parts of the configuration parameters get taken from several of those files, so if you think you’ve found what the actual config file should be and remove the duplicates, suddenly the program uses defaults or doesn’t even work at all.
They have a secondary motherboard that hosts the Slot CPUs, 4 single core P3 Xeons. I also have the Dell equivalent model but it has a bum mainboard.
With those 90’s systems, to get Windows NT to use more than 1 core, you have to get the appropriate Windows version that actually supports them.
Now you can simply upgrade from a 1 to a 32 core CPU and Windows and Linux will pick up the difference and run with it.
In the NT 3.5 and 4 days, you actually had to either do a full reinstall or swap out several parts of the Kernel to get it to work.
Downgrading took the same effort as a multicore windows Kernel ran really badly on a single core system.
As for the Sun Fires, the two models I mentioned tend to be highly available on Ebay in the 100-200 range and are very different inside than an X86 system. You can go for 400 or higher series to get even more difference, but getting a complete one of those can be a challenge.
And yes, the software used on some of these older systems was a challenge in itself, but they aren’t really special, they are pretty much like having different vendors RGB controller softwares on your system, a nuisance that you should try to get past.
For instance, the IBM 5000 series raid cards were simply LSI cards with an IBM branded firmware.
The first thing most people do is put the actual LSI firmware on them so they run decently.
Oh, I get it. But a baseline HP Proliant from that era is just an x86 system barely different from a desktop today but worse/slower/more power hungry in every respect.
For history and “how things changed”, go for something like a Sun Fire system from the mid 2000’s (280R or V240 are relatively easy and cheap to get and are actually different) or a Proliant from the mid to late 90’s (I have a functioning Compaq Proliant 7000 which is HUGE and a puzzlebox inside).
x86 computers haven’t changed much at all in the past 20 years and you need to go into the rarer models (like blade systems) to see an actual deviation from the basic PC alike form factor we’ve been using for the past 20 years and unique approaches to storage and performance.
For self hosting, just use something more recent that falls within your priceclass (usually 5-6 years old becomes highly affordable). Even a Pi is going to trounce a system that old and actually has a different form factor.
You should replace that thing with something more modern. I had a 5000p chipset system someone gave me with dual quad cores and an assload of ram.
The shitty box idled over 400W. I went as far as getting low power ram and the newest CPU it would support that also supported frequency and power scaling and it still used over 400W on idle.
This while I had a Xeon E5 box that was only a few years younger that uses more in the neighborhood of 50W on idle and utterly decimates the 5000 series box in CPU performance.
You’re probably better of fetching some old Ryzen 1800x system of ebay for higher performance and leagues lower power consumption.
As for the raid, don’t use it. Hardware raid has always been shit and in modern Linux and Windows is as good as completely depricated.
They may be able to alter what it says, but they can’t alter what it thinks.
And this is how Skynet was born.
That one Microsoft Twitter bot turned into a full blown Nazi in just one day.
I can’t even imagine how fucked up and depraved one trained on Reddit data will get.
“There’s a lot of junk in this trunk” works too.
I’ve been looking into that here and so far it’s not accepted as valid (or legal to use MDMA) and while it looks promising, me being neurodivergent has my psychiatrist and psyhcologist a bit apprehensive to experiment with it.
Every fracture, bruise and STABWOUND I’ve had as a 6ft1 230lbs dude, in my 45 years on this earth were caused by one 5ft2 woman.
That 18 year relationship left me with serious PTSD, constant anxiety I’ll get a call she killed herself, constant anxiety she may seek contact again and severely aggravated my pre-existing dislike for any sort of physical contact.
It took well over a year before I was able to even hug the woman that is now my wife.
This seems to be a genetic thing too.
In my family there’s my great gran, her two sons, the oldests daughter and me and my sister who all have that issue.
Have to say, this is not the most convoluted way of testing a simple thing I’ve seen in my years, not by a long shot.
Imho you’re wrong there.
Amazon has every incentive to write down Twitches infrastructure cost as far higher than it needs to be, to make Twitch look unprofitable.
Both to audience and shareholders. It’ll allow them to force more advertising and push up sub prices while making the main corporation revenue look better.
This while the long term plan looks to be more about getting an excuse to shut down the public facing side of Twitch and get rid of having to deal with the streamers and viewers as direct clients and renting out streaming infrastructure to other streaming sites instead.
They want to condense their streaming services to simply be simple products they can sell or rent out to other sites rather than having to deal with a load of consumers and legal liabilities that come with them.
That’s how, to this day, I have anxiety performing CPR, even for certification (which is done on a dummy) and pull out the industrial grade draino whenever a drain is even suspected of being clogged.
Watching The Thing and The Blob before you’re 10, not the best for your mental health.
Don’t fret. Discovering good music from before your own generation tends to happen in people’s 30’s and later. They start feeling detached from the “new” music, so start discovering music people from all generations loved and they will discover plenty of older music they then come to love.
Do have to say that the current gen especially is more detached from the music of their parents than Millenials and older were, because often they had internet and their own phones on which they listened to their own music, rather than growing up often hearing their parents music.
My mom was in a rock cover band that covered the 60’s-80’s and my dad was in both a brass band and orchestra, through them I got in touch with classic rock and the roots of metal pretty early on and learned my fair share of classical music.
My sisters kids have no clue about any music but what they share with their peers.
