heat is movement of atoms and molecules.
Moving atoms don’t physically touch each other. They transfer their momentum with photons.

No need to be so hostile.
It’s frustratingly hypocritical that Linux users rightfully dunk on Microsoft for it’s AI yet defend Linux platforms despite the AI.
When it’s the default in Windows, Microsoft is evil. When it’s the default in Docker, you should know better and figure out how to install it despite the official online documentation telling you to install Docker Desktop to get Docker compose installed.

I’m surprised that you would even run that on a desktop with a GUI,
???
The install guide says you need docker compose and links to the docker compose install guide. The link provided for docker compose installs docker desktop. Docker Desktop is a program that shows your running Dockers and allows you to start and stop them.
But fuck me for being a simple man that Read the Fucking Manual and followed the directions provided.

Yes, Docker Desktop which if you follow the guide for Network Proxy Manager and other docker apps you end up installing. You’d have to already know that Docker Desktop has AI to avoid it and find a work around install.
If the default is getting Docker AI when you install popular apps in Linux, at that point it’s not different from knowing that the default is getting Copilot in Windows and then following online guides to remove it.

f its drivers, then XP was really bad. It was so bad it didn’t even support HD’s bigger than 128GB at release despite Win2k supporting the larger drives.

Then you install Docker because may Linux apps come distributed only as Docker images and find out that Docker has its own AI built in called Gordon.
Then Lemmy dogpiles me for, “What do you expect for running corporate software.”

They don’t care about forcing you to 11 other than it saves them development costs. All the ads and spyware are also in 10.

Windows 98 wasn’t bad. It was a big improvement in stability over 95. Windows ME/2000 were two completely separate products. Win 2000 was based on NT which always got better until maybe Vista. Vista itself wasn’t bad. The problem was end users not liking security. Vista made it easier than sudo to temporarily elevate security and everyone still complained. So they backed off on XP which was less secure because it didn’t enforce security elevation as much.
You also can’t list 98SE and ignore Win 8.1. 8.1 was a bandaid fix for the start menu of 8 but was still a bad.
There’s no significant difference between 10 and 11 to claim one is good and the other is bad. All the garbage in 11 was also in 10.

I replayed the PS2 version on my retroid but I think these mods need the windows version.

It depends on how old. My Xeons are e-2224G. They’re 14nm coffee lake. They are rated at 71Watts but as I said only use 15w streaming 4k.
They’re $190 on eBay with 16gb ram and 256 GB SSD.
A 16 GB Pi5 is $130 just for the motherboard. You still need storage, case and power supply.

I switched to ECC only for my home server over 10 years ago after a silent ram error corrupted some data on my raid drives. I didn’t realize there was a problem until I went to look at an old photo and it was corrupted.
“8 percent of the DIMMs saw correctable error per year”
And this was from 20 years ago when memory density was much less so the chance of an error was lower.

The North Star, Polaris, part of the little Dipper constellation, was named “Kynosoura” in ancient Greece. Kynosoura means, "The Dog’s tail.’
Star names will not last.
We know the names of great Greek and Chinese philosophers because of their work. So while the names of the stars might change, being the Einstein of your generation is a likely path to immortality.

I got an old Lenovo P330 Xeon with 64 G of ECC ram. I recently checked its power usage for another poster asking the same thing. I was shocked to see it only use 15Watts while streaming 4k hevc.
For server use, ECC is important because it’s going to be on 24/7 for years at a time.

- Comment on Windows 10 IoT LTSC 2021...'has reached end of support' warning (?!) 1 week ago:
Many programs will not allow to be installed on it
I run server and have never seen that. Could you give an example?
Also gaming on it can have many limitations.
There are no limitations. The scheduler doesn’t prioritize foreground tasks over background tasks. In my experience that makes it smoother. If you want it to multitask like desktop, it’s a registry setting.

The script is legal. Not paying for software that requires you to pay is illegal.
It’s like DeCSS code that strips drm from DVDs was legally grey but downloading movies you didn’t pay for is illegal.
- Comment on Windows 10 IoT LTSC 2021...'has reached end of support' warning (?!) 1 week ago:
Microsoft built their entire DRM software in a way that was able to be recerse engineered.
Downloading movies you haven’t paid for is also piracy even if there’s no drm. Microsoft doesn’t need to put any copy protection for it still to be piracy.
Piracy has nothing to do with copy protection.
And it’s beside the point. Using LTSC that you didn’t paid for is the same as using Windows Server that you didn’t pay for. So why not use Server which is better than LTSC?
- Comment on Windows 10 IoT LTSC 2021...'has reached end of support' warning (?!) 1 week ago:
If your pirating which for end users is the only way to get LTSC, just run Windows Server.
It’s cleaner than LTSC.

I don’t think you can blame it all the merger when MS is 3rd behind Sony and Tencent.
In game consoles Sony outsells MS 2 to 1. MS isn’t a monopoly in gaming.
