See if that helps get you in the right direction.

Its a shame that the rest of the S26 line is missing out on the privacy screen feature.

Are you saying you leave the car running while fueling the car?

If so, that’s a easy way to meet Jesus early.

The manufacturer’s website is hard to use. (Keeps switching between English and German)

Looks like a cool phone we need more Linux phones.

I agree with the Ubuntu based suggestions but if you’re ok waiting towards the end of this month 26.04 LTS is about to come out. That should provide a better long term experience.

If it needs to be now the older 24.04 LTS version is fine.

Oh I wasn’t suggesting it as a fix. Just saying what you’re describing was kinda possible in the 90s. Like others mentioned your provider may have a DVR solution capable of it, but I’ve never seen one. Sorry if I caused any confusion.

It was possible to setup your VCR to record at specific times. The fancy ones could even change the channel for it.

Unlikely but you may find a unicorn.

If you’re sticking with the old games then there’s a chance.

The Intel ARC graphics has potential. https://www.notebookcheck.net/These-are-the-slowest-and-fastest-Intel-Arc-8-laptops-money-can-buy-after-testing-over-35-different-models.984956.0.html

Anything under 16GB of ram is likely a waste of money. (But with the ram shortage anything new might be unreasonably expensive or sold out)

Your best bet would be the used market and using a line of credit to pay off the computer. Could you afford more over an extended period?

Its harder to make that change (reliably) to your app than it is to publish a arm64 package.

Its also expensive in terms of cpu cycle waste.

Could put the latest available OSX on it and sell it for $300. People buy old apple stuff like vintage clothes.

Fair, just like using gameplay changing mods achievements should be locked out for this.

I’d love to watch it try to get the never die achievement in dark souls 2.

Looks like you’re referring to the laptop version of these parts.

The 1650 was a weird chip for an gone era. But I’d expect it to work, marginally less performance to the 1060.

If you have a thunderbolt port you could look into using an Intel b580 in an egpu case if shopping for another system is out of the question. (Bad market currently)

I used to be a part of an anticheat dev team and we discovered that this was a common problem back in the Windows XP era.

We added a routine to check the memory addresses used after a crash and notified the user if we suspected hardware failure.

At the time we suspected unstable overclocks because the metrics showed us the computers affected were typically overclocked as well.

I understand that. It’s just that this entire argument doesn’t qualify. The OS has no out of spec influence over the modem due to its design. Its entirely self-contained component with its own firmware and driver stack. The OS is at the mercy of the modem’s firmware and that firmware prevents this exact scenario described.

Steam makes OS unique modifications to the game, trying to share the same game drive between them causes an update war and corruption.

I’ve tried it a few times, never goes well long term. Generally, I partition the drive and only use windows for problematic games like pubg.

Also, if you enjoy workshop features in games with a native Linux version like Left4Dead 2 or Garry’s mod. I would recommend you force the windows version by selecting proton in the compatibility section under properties for that game. Some workshop mods don’t play nice on Linux and its like playing whack-a-mole solving it.

Most Linux malware comes from community repos and fake GitHub style projects.

The default package repositories in all the major distributions are safe. Some examples to be worried about are pip packages and the AUR if you’re using Arch.

My first programming language was qbasic as well. Fond memories of that.

Vet third party sources, just like you would have on windows.

Something I want to tag on for anyone pondering this.

Steam on Linux will be unstable if you try to use your NTFS drive for games. As the support of the filesystem isn’t consistent.

That’s a bit of a huge stretch.

People can load custom operating systems on their computer all they want without turning their wifi and Bluetooth adapter into a two way software defined radio.

You got me curious, looks like it became a standard in 2021. Pretty old for a performance laptop but I’d imagine that it took awhile for the manufacturers to catch up. Thanks
