This would actually be a pretty decent desktop computer to use. I’ve been really impressed with the Raspberry Pi 5 which is running my Raspiblitz Bitcoin/Lightning node. It processed the entire Bitcoin blockchain in about 3 days, where my Raspberry…
This is where they want to take their propaganda operations, and these AI systems have shown themselves to be trash. And the people running them aren’t trustworthy, and are introducing all kinds of bias and misinformation into the systems they…
The last 4.x kernel is EOL, and that will probably affect people running really old hardware or software. Consequently, if you have a really old Hamvoip installation, you could still be on the 4.19 kernel as I upgraded to the…
First a side point, pay attention to this blurb YouTube puts on the video. There are plenty of scientists that don’t believe this global warming hoax or their computer models even though they claim 97% and lately 99% consensus (weather…
They’ve labeled Linux Kernel 6.11 EOL, so don’t wait too long to switch to 6.12 or other LTS kernel as there will be no official updates except for security updates from your distribution security team. Also Linux Kernel 6.12 will…
Back when Bitcoin was about $432 I started using it to pay for some Tor servers I was running overseas. As I learned about it, running a Bitcoin node on a Pi 2 and even buying a mining machine to…
When Raspberry Pis became available again after the chip shortages, I purchased a couple four core Pi Zero 2 W boards to be our Pi-Hole DNS/Unbound servers. Previously the main board was a Pi Zero 2 W that had the…
I’ve never played with these AI systems as you generally had to identify yourself to use them, and that just struck me as wrong making me think a data collection scheme. But I’ve seen examples of their output, and one…
And curiously, they seem to have fixed SDDM which has been broken on my Debian Unstable, which isn’t a big deal as it will use LightDM. But this leaves just Debian Stable on KDE 5 until the next release of…
(Headline article at bottom) Before I left AT&T they had gone full bossware on our computers tracking us completely, and for where the megacorps really want to go, see this WEF presentation on “brain transparency” regarding monitoring brain waves with…
Trends of malware and what they’re doing on regular people’s PCs. And it’s just not wise to use a Windows PC on the internet, as a great way to protect yourself is to use a LInux virtual machine which you…
This is a promising day for an open router designed to run OpenWrt. I had bought my current router because it would run OpenWrt, but I’ve been so happy with Mikrotik‘s router software and how well they update it along…
