It should be possible. I’ve just recently created a virtual hard disk in virtual box and mapped it to a physical ssd and installed windows on it. just change the settings of the virtual machine to match the target hardware and it should be fine I think.

curl cheat.sh/command is more useful because it just spits out common examples. man is only useful if you need complete documentation or need to build a complex oneliner.

I never remember hot to extract tar files. Would you dive into the documentation for that or look up a cheatsheet?

“Installing APP does not require you to switch to it nor asking friends and family to use it. What it does is allowing them to reach out to you in a private way. By installing it you respect and support their choice of avoiding BAD_APP.”

On the sidenote: Just recommend Signal. It uses phone number as identifier, easy to grow by using phone book, has good track record when glowies have a warrant and most importantly it’s stable. It has flaws (no sms, not saving chat history) but there are no other alternatives available yet that beat signal for normies.

Seems like you’re fucked anyway then. This has to be solved politically.

That is a classical windows mentality. “gnome is cheap macos clone”. Gnome tries just to create a minimal and distraction free and polished DE. KDE tries to bulldose as many features as possible and that sacrifices stability and UX. Analogy would be similar to having a leaky water pipe in the roof. Gnome would fix the leaking pipe meanwhile KDE would give you a bucket and a few towels to clean that up in different ways.

Just using duckduckgo. I’m not happy with my search results as they heavily prioritize clickbait CEO blogs instead of showing official documentation / sources.

It’s a KINGSTON SA2000M81000G. Here is a “datasheet”.

I’ve looked up some of the inode numbers in the logs and they point to some application state data in /var so reinstalling application could bring those files back.

I’ve never touched SMART before since I’ve assumed it’s an HDD thing. Anyway. I’ve installed smartmontools. nvme ssds don’t report smart stats like for hdds so this answer suggested looking for Percentage used in stead.

<span style="color:#323232;">root@archiso ~ # smartctl -a --test=long /dev/nvme0n1 | grep "Used"
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Percentage Used:                    2%

It could be true that the firmware is not optimal but I could not find any news about that like you have for the 980. gnome software should keep firmware up to date in the background but just for good measure I ran it in live environment as well. I will probably get a new ssd at some point in the future and maybe use this old one for non critical storage in the future.

Is this your modem? …net.au/how-setup-tg-789-broadband-gateway-nbn-ft…

Can you access 10.1.1.1 and log in as described? If so can you take a screenshot over that web site after you log in so we can see what settings are available to tweak? There might be a chance your modem-router will do just fine.

Agility0971, 10 months ago

I found the manual Can you get on that web site using a laptop? https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/2b067733-5336-4698-aca9-08546e1c75f8.pngCan you log in, click on Internet, and take a screenshot (from a laptop)? Make sure to remove your public ip address form the screenshot. In your case it means remove ip addresses that does not start with 192.168.xxx.xxx
