More adventures in computing. So I bought this old Samsung laptop a few years ago to install Linux on. Worked out pretty well, but I don't use it much because it tends to run hot and the fan drones on...
Now this is kind of funny. Satisfied with the setup so far, I decided to move the new computer off the bench, put it where it belongs and attach my peripherals. Alright despite Integral having a ton o...

Yes, I remember XP was a great version of Windows, but can't remember the details. I have my linux looking and behaving like a Mac. I am going to start the build of a whole new program for my linux ma...

Thanks. Amazing how much this version of XP resembles Linux. Behaves a little like it too.

Ah, day 2 in the adventures of installing a custom OS. This is an unofficial version of Windows XP called, Integral. The developers have literally tweaked the hell out of it to bring it up to date, wh...

DAMN IT!!!! 🤬 Thought I'd cracked it. I got this bright idea to mount my old drive inside the new computer, then boot into Linux from a thumb drive and try to recover my files. All other attempts to r...
Nice - I've bought a couple of similar base units myself which have served me well It doesn't look like it'll be much of a struggle to swap out the PSU if it fails ... which can be an issue with the n...
No Graphic card? Or you just removed it while cleaning? No dedicated GPU, but what's built into the i5 processor is decent enough for now. Plenty of room to expand though, should I decide to upgrade i...

Just finished cleaning up what little dust there was, replacing the coin battery and renewing the thermal paste, which as I suspected was hard as a rock after sitting for all those years. I mean, look...

I think most of that IS AINo idea the ratio. Seems like a lot of just regular pics though. I just skip past it regardless.
Okay. I mostly confine my Ai to the Ai forum anyway, so no big deal. It's just that, there's a lot of things I don't personally care for here. Like all the topless and near nude shots outside of the c...

Good grief. Are there folks here that upset about Ai pics they need to be flagged like that? Has there been some study saying Ai generated pics cause cancer in laboratory animals or something? Just se...

In the cheapskate realm, I'm a fully paid, card carrying party member. I can sniff out a good deal from miles away. When I saw that listing, it set my miserly senses all a quiver. 🤣
