Stay away from the Thinkpad T580 with the Geforce MX150. It’s horribly throttled and can’t even run Quake 3 properly although it should actually be capable of running Doom 2016.
Might be the same with the T480.

That’s more or less what a virtual machine does. And I bet cheating programs do as well.
With a router I could imagine different client apps following different standards.
Many routers can also be controlled via Telnet, which will also use different encodings depending on your OS.
At least with e-mail clients different clients on different operating systems use different encoding by default for their passwords.
Take a string as bytes is bad with weird non-ASCII characters. Been there, been bitten in the ass by it.

At it’s simplest you just start the programs with Wine. So when you have Wine installed you can just select to run an exe file with Wine. By itself it will install them to a hidden folder where a mock-Windows-folderstructure is created and add entries to your start-menu equivalent.
Most people use helper apps that add a separate mock-Windows environment for every program. Makes it easier to manage them, especially if one program needs different settings from another to work.
Bottles is such a helper for general programs. Heroic is mostly for GOG and Epic games. Lutris generally for games. And Steam uses it’s own Wine version Proton automatically for verified games and you can trivially configure it to automatically use it for every Windows game.
Look at https://protondb.com for games and https://appdb.winehq.org/ for general programs.
And in reality they’re all just in the 2.6 branch. I still remember the transition from 2.4.
I wonder how that will play together with Distros like OpenSUSE Tumbleweed where you basically do a whole OS upgrade and are not supposed to do “just” updates.
I hope we can easily supply our own script to run.
Have you tried different browsers? You should also enter the full URL sometimes they’re a bit stupid nowadays. So http://192.168.x.x:1500/
Maybe the browsers bring their own VPN. Some process all traffic to make it more “mobile friendly”. Or they have some other kind of proxy.
Fli4l should. Back when it was new it was meant to fit on a floppy and run on 3’86 machines. It’s for running a home router.
I’m still salty about how they fucked up Thief 4.
I think they actually are unionized. At least in the UK. That’s what some of the Baldur’s Gate 3 actors said when asked about the anti AI strikes. They can’t participate because of the rules of their union.
If I recall correctly there is even a sentence in the article about the British union starting to tackle this issue.
I love Debian for servers. Super stable. No surprises. It just works. And millions of other people use it as well in case I need to look something up.
And even when I’m lazy and don’t update to the latest release oldstable will be supported for years and years.
Nah, WebOS was already Linux when Palm used it on their phones. I had one of them. I preferred the N900 and it could even run games made for WebOS.
A bash script would probably be easiest to write and pluck into cron.
Edit: Clone all repos you want into one directory and then loop with a script over all cloned dirs and issue git fetch
. Done. If you want to add a repo you clone another.
They want to get a piece of the power Disney showed.
There are tons of computers running Linux besides PCs. By far the biggest part are servers and supercomputers. Microsoft even has their own distribution for their server business. Then there are all the Android phones and devices. Android is Linux. In Germany I’ve also often seen Linux used for kiosks at government agencies.
Linux is used in TVs and set top boxes. Everything that says Tizen or WebOS is powered by Linux. I’ve also seen it used as in-flight entertainment systems. And Lunduke had an example of Linux running on a machine controlling how cows are milked, if I recall correctly.
For most systems you won’t actually know what OS is used until you see a hardware error screen. Although Microsoft has made it a little easier with mandatory updates.
Besides VMWare it always seemed the easiest for me to quickly make a Windows VM or so. Everything else usually had more configuration steps. But that’s been a while ago. There could very well have been easier tools available in the mean time. I never bothered to look.
I only ever used “permanent” virtualization once on my server. I think with Xen. But it didn’t give me any benefits for my use case so I dropped it later on. Also probably at least ten years ago.
Usually VirtualBox. It’s easy and free.
That is absolutely not a slow laptop. If it takes a long time to boot there must be something wrong. I have a similar system that takes about ten seconds to boot.
Anyways, like others said, LVM with LUKS is the simplest. It uses your hardware to quickly decrypt the drive on boot. While it is running access to your data is protected by your login manager or lock screen.
