I think China has more paper rockets than any other country.

MakeMKV is the only cross platform bluray ripper that I’m aware of that will work with any disc. For DVDs, I normally use Handbrake.

Someone got Linux to run on an Intel 4004. It does take over a week to boot though. As long as you can connect a sufficient amount of memory to a CPU, it can boot Linux. If the CPU doesn’t support Linux, it can emulate a CPU that does.

I wonder how many issues rewriting everything in another language will create?

Just use yt-dlp. It’s not hard to use. You just type yt-dlp, paste the video link, and press enter to download the highest quality version.

The stock software will not run in Wine. I would suggest picking hardware that’s supported by Piper.

That’s a kernel worker for ACPI. It sounds like you may have a driver for something that is misbehaving.

I wonder what CPU it has. You should tear it down and see if you can get some custom code running.

That battery is way too small. I prefer to have a 100WH battery. It definitely needs a couple more USB ports and an SD card reader.

That’s pretty impressive, but if they can’t figure out how to mass produce them cost effectively, then it’s pointless. Most of these battery breakthroughs never make it out of the lab.

I would stick with MBR for flash drives unless you need lots of partitions. GPT is great on PCs, but usually isn’t supported on other devices.

Because modern “journalists” only know how to copy and paste from other “news sites” and random social media posts.

Good, it serves them right for the way they treat their customers. I hope every one of their games gets leaked early.

Yes, you do have to log out for group changes to take effect.

When the hard drive got full. Luckily, hard drives keep getting bigger and bigger.

Yandex is extremely useful for finding obscure stuff that doesn’t show up on the usual torrent sites.

For 3D modeling, you can get a 3D mouse such as the SpaceMouse.

Then why have I had Duracells leak in an unopened package before the expiration date?

Is the pre amp powered over the coax? The filter may not be designed to handle power.
Nearby lightning could have fried the filter. A direct strike is not needed to cause damage.
It could just be terrible build quality. The filter could have had a bad solder joint that cracked.

Does your windows machine have WSL? I would just write a bash script that would DD the image to the drives. Keep in mind that you will be severely bandwidth limited by the USB interface, so it will take a long time. All of the ports on the controller share the same bandwidth. Ideally you would build a PC with lots of USB controller cards for that.
