LOL if 4gb of memory is pretty minimal I am curious to know that they think to be resource intensive.
The maximum memory I am willing to allocate to a lxc container dedicated to bookmark management (=something that I access twice a month) is 256mb


This is an ad, so the computer pictured is not fictional, but it’s the HP Mediasmart ex470 (I think this joke book was even bundled with the first units)
They used really shitty processors so it’s ewaste, maybe it can be acquired for cheap and repurposed with some mini itx board


I think it depends by the manufacturer and how they programmed the charger, I got two HP ProBook that almost exclusively got used when plugged in and after a decade they can still last over two hours, instead my Thinkpad t42 with the same usage pattern now just barely holds enough for shutting down the system


if you need to buy it, for that budget i’d choose something like an used Lenovo m910q tiny that banks and offices are throwing to the landfill because Microsoft said that everyone needs to buy a new PC. Half the price, similar power consumption (in idle, otherwise much more), much more powerful, comes with nvme and sata slots, hdmi and usb 3


1993 and they didn’t update the song for Czechoslovakia?


Italian here: one Saturday I start to get lots of downtime notifications
I don’t understand what’s happening, because they come and go, I get hundreds of them
I connect to the server, waste four hours, everything looks ok but pages don’t load? Weird?
I go to sleep without solving the problem
The morning everything looks fine, so I can go to my self hosted news reader and I discover in my feeds that the FUCKING soccer league blocked cloudflare “accidentally”
The best part of our system is that if the block isn’t disputed within a week, then the IP address is permanently banned. Can it be more stupid than that? Do they really think that pirates won’t change their ip address?
We gave the keys of our internet to two litigious copyright trolls
And this exclusively harms honest people because pirates just use a VPN. I saw pirate websites that when accessed from an Italian IP address have some legitimate content, need to access from a VPN. So the block is completely useless
you can install dockge in truenas and then all your docker data is not “locked” inside their application data


my HBA takes 20W at idle
scale, they got rid of the kvm emulator in the last release and i was devastated to see all my VM gone. The “migration” consists in you migrate the disk image to the new directory, then you make a new VM… IF you knew that BEFORE the update and took note of all the settings because the old VM menu is gone!
but also it’s clear than core is on life support
Exactly, for example I missed the note that updating truenas to the latest version disables and hides all the virtual machines (theoretically they can get migrated to the new engine but it gave me some weird error. Luckily truenas can be downgraded easily.)
Now, 3 months after the First release of the update, those virtual machines aren’t disabled and hidden anymore


And the bribe is so cheap compared to what the company would had to pay
Examples:
Boeing, just needed to donate $1 mil and let the CEO travel with an idiot to help the Qatari royal family dump their white elephant that was actually a money pit
Nvidia, just needed to book a $1 mil dinner at mar a Lago to lift their export ban and start printing billions
All the crypto bros,
And so on
It’s basically a no-brainer move, a 1000x return on investment


And this is because it works. Horny men see the minuscule thumbnail: “OMG it’s a hot woman!”, then click it, see the link in the profile, and get scammed.


Highest risk? Death was almost guaranteed in this case.


Did you read the link you posted? It says you must have Intel 8th gen or higher AND tpm 2.0
Not just tpm 2.0


It’s not possible to see the image, when I click on the fediverse button (link to https://lemmy.thewooskeys.com/post/575941) I get a xitter-style forced signup screen


It is unrealistic that parts with that age are brand new, available in that quantity. It might happens that some distributor misplaces some box and a couple computers are old new stock after a decade, but hundreds?
Also: W11 pro OEM is 120 euro and office 365 perpetual doesn’t even exist, and if they meant office 2024 home and business is 299 euro. 120+299 exceed the listing price


Ok read the documentation: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/minimum/supported/windows-11-24h2-supported-intel-processors
Where does it say that you can use a 6th gen Intel CPU if you install a tpm chip?
The tpm is definitely not used as you can install it on a supported system, then go to the bios, disable secure boot and tpm and it still works (if the automatic “ransomware” bitlocker encryption didn’t start)


Yes ok from an accounting point of view.
But from a functional point of view?
I see how my bank teller works: they connect to a terminal server
I see how my other bank works: a VM that runs AS/400 that is acting as a terminal to their mainframe
Why they’re changing computers so often? The first one can use any PC released in the past 15 years and the second one can use any released in the past 30 years
Wow that’s an awesome project! Thanks for sharing, now I can get a camera that’s inexpensive, has everything I want and doesn’t require malware to be installed on my phone/network!
