First result searching “how to check if android tv is infected”: https://www.tomsguide.com/news/thousands-of-android-tv-boxes-infected-with-dangerous-malware-linked-to-fraud

My threadripper 1950x is from 2017… and is the cpu powering my primary hypervisor perfectly fine. That’s not 18 years ago, that’s not even 8 years ago.

Please do not buy cheap no brand android tv boxes unless you know how to verify they are not running malware out of the box. This is a known problem and shouldn’t be recommended.

What’s more, all keyless cars still have a fob with proximity and if the fob dies, they legally have to have a way to start the car without the fob battery which is why they all have an nfc reader somewhere (usually in a cup holder) so you can put you dead fob on it and the car will start like normal.

Donating $20 directly to a creator or buying one item from their merch will more than offset a lifetime of ad revenue from just yourself if you use ad blockers for their content. The fractional pennies you are worth to them is completely eclipsed by directly supporting most of them a single time.

I’ve been using Debian for many years now. The hardest part about switching my desktop to arch (partly to try something different, partly for later kernel / tools) was not that arch is difficult, but that I need to type ‘sudo pacman -S’ instead of ‘sudo apt install’ to install new packages. It is functionally the same in my day to day use which is fantastic.

Since you are interested in practical examples, I would recommend you watch and maybe even follow along with Ben Eater’s 6502 breadboard computer series on YouTube (piped link). The kit is cheap and works great but more importantly it introduces so many core concepts about how computers actually work from a raw metal and machine code standpoint while touching on so many different aspects about computers that still apply today.

I think Epics would be a great addition, based on how I currently plan to use this.

This would be neat for a bunch of passive IoT buttons. No need for a piezo to generate power, good for a couple presses at a time, just simple stuff like that.

Very neat, excited to demo this later this weekend. Is it possible to add multiple swimlane groups that can be filtered by tags? That is, not just add a vertical swimlane but add a whole new horizontal group so it’s visually separate with the same vertical lanes, but each horizontal section automatically filters by some criteria.

KVM + LookingGlass + VirtManager should be the way to go. I don’t have a good complete tutorial on this right now though. But good place to start looking.

Or, just use Home and End like they were intended! Kids these days….

Same deal, got a full 3-2-1 backup of all my data! Easy to recover if I make a mistake but even easier to replace with higher quality newer builds of Linux isos.

Storage is cheap. There’s no reason to delete content.

This is why I always get a Costco 18" pizza for $10 every time I’m at the store. Yes, the pizza quality is not great, but neither are any of these other chains that charge 3x (or more) for less pizza of similar quality.

Honestly… in my opinion hdmi needs to die. DisplayPort is superior in every way, especially when driving from thunderbolt/usb4. We are so close to one port for everything, even if we have to continue dongle hell for a while longer.

That’s still service.

#1 will be your best bet because the motivation comes free with something you’re more passionate or engaged with such as a personal project. And, on the mirror side of that, reproduce existing programs/applets in a language of your choice. For example, an HTTP client or xxd.

Why’s that?

Yeah definitely DO NOT regularly clean the filter if your machine has one. Never ever ever experiment with different amounts of detergent to determine the correct amount to use and absolutely NEVER be mindful of the orientation of the dishes as you load them.

Get over yourself.
