In a generic community like c/AskLemmy it’s pretty far down the list of options.

I haven’t done that in a long time.

Most recently I probably overclocked my original playstation portable.

That brings a whole new meaning to impostor syndrome.

I’ve got one of them miyoo minis running OnionOS on the crapper.

It goes into deep sleep and resumes my gameplay in seconds. With my toilet time the battery lasts months. I’ve finished four games in the last year split into 700 poop sessions.

Thanks for the tip!

This was a long-standing showstopper for me & Wayland. I got rid of my work computer instead, but if I get another one I’ll be sure to test this out.

Same. I bought some 70 bitcoins for 50€ when I first heard of it. Kept mining on a radeon 9770 or something at about 1BTC or 5€ per week. Electricity was included in my rent then, but I stopped because fan noise.

I lost a bunch on mtgox. Cashed out for a down payment on a house way too early (2016). I’d be rich if I had hodled.

Which is exactly why you’d want to run a CoW filesystem with redundancy.

I switched in 1997.

The internet was taking off, and it was built on Linux and un*ces. It was just a lot more fun.

Also, C-programming. M$ had just gotten protected memory in NT4.0, but a lot of applications just didn’t run on NT. It’d take another three years before protected memory hit mainstream with win2k. No novice programmer wants their computer to bluescreen every time they do a tiny little out of bounds error.

I worked at a niche factory some 20 years ago. We had a tape robot with 8 tapes at some 200GB each. It’d do a full backup of everyone’s home directories and mailboxes every week, and incremental backups nightly.

We’d keep the weekly backups on-site in a safe. Once a month I’d do a run to another plant one town over with a full backup.

I guess at most we’d need five tapes. If they still use it, and with modern tapes, it should scale nicely. Today’s LTO-tapes are 18TB. Driving five tapes half an hour would give a nice bandwidth of 50GB/s. The bottleneck would be the write speed to tape at 400MB/s.

Ramen.

Back when we met she looked me up on Facebook, where I had listed my faith. She thought it would be a deal-breaker for a minute or two until she read up on pastafarianism.

She has come to accept my faith and has even read the good book cover to cover.

My wife is atheist, but I’m pastafari.

Linus says no.

I’m sure it’s great and all, but the hassle of having a filesystem that’s not in the kernel is a no-starter for me. Maybe one of those fancy NAS-distros that are based on some *BSD.

Well, snapshots, too. I just consider them to be a special case of de-duplication.

I had an issue when I ran out of space during conversion between RAID profiles a few years back. I didn’t lose any data, but I couldn’t get the array to mount (and stay) read-write.

Been running BTRFS since 2010. Ext2/3/4 before that.

Using it for CoW, de-duplication, compression. My home file server has had a long-lived array of mis-matched devices. Started at 4x2TB, through 6x4TB and now 2x18+4TB. I just move up a size whenever a disk fails.

I don’t think there has been huge issues with incompatible ISAs on ARM. If you’d use NEON extensions, for example, you might have a C-implementation that does the same if the extensions are not available. Most people don’t handwrite such code, but those that do usually go the extra mile. ARM SoCs usually have closed source drivers that cause headaches. As well as no standardized way of booting.

I haven’t delved super-deep into RISC-V just yet, but as I understand these systems will do UEFI, solving the bootloader headache. And yes, there are optional extensions and you can even make your own. But the architecture takes height for implementing an those extensions in software. If you don’t have the gates for your fancy vector instruction, you can provide instructions to replicate the same. It’ll be slower on your hardware, but it’ll be compatible if done right.

Does it have to be arcade?

I love “papers, please”.

I’d wash his clothes, too.
