Oh damn, don't say it's good. You're gonna make me want to reinstall. Then I have to track down my saves from my old desktop. And then I have to figure out what mods I had installed. Then once that's finally all squared away I'll need to go to some raider camps up near Sanctuary to get...

Bode didn't want to sully their name by lowering their own prices closer to the actual value of their products, so they bought into the crap brand hanging at the supermarket checkout.

Glad I didn't jump on the P11 for GrapheneOS while it was on sale: https://discuss.grapheneos.org/d/41564-pixel-11-doesnt-meet-the-grapheneos-security-standards-and-may-be-skipped/75

Just enough to keep it parallel to its PCIe slot.

In almost the exact same place. My P7 is fine, but OS/security updates end in a year. Plus, there's a $100 store credit if buying an unlocked by 8/27. So right now a P11 is far cheaper than a P10 (P7 to P10 trade-in is only $95). Main thing holding me back is I'm really looking at moving to...

Most likely, 6-32 I'd guess, but maybe not. You should probably take some of the case screws (more than one in case those are also damaged) to the local hardware store. The screw aisle usually will have a thing you can use to check the screws and verify the size. You can try repairing the...

No new, only repainted old.

I've not, and no idea on their quality.

Not sure about quick. If you're willing to put in a little time, many community colleges offer courses. Many are Cisco-created and sponsored CCNA. Decent chance the teacher is knowledgeable (most of the ones I had were teaching as a side from their normal networking-based jobs). There should be...

The hotspot throttling Visible does irks me. AFAICT most of the MVNOs don't do this, especially for their unlimited plans. (edit: missing word.)

Same. It's nice not having the screen blast a bunch of light at my eyes, especially at night. Though there are some pages that personally don't work as well in dark mode, e.g., maps.

Not meaning to hawk too hard for them, but the US Mobile By-The-Gig plan is $35 for 20 GB shared plus $8 per additional line after the first. I'd guess other pre-paid providers are similar.

I've been using US Mobile for a bit now. No issues. I don't use much data away from WiFi, so I'm just on the basic $10/mo. plan for a single line. They offer all three major US networks (I use Verizon's through them) and you can easily switch without changing plans (though there might be a small...

What's the environment, # of clients, bandwidth to support, etc.? WAG based on your existing system, it looks to me that this is for a typical home install. I'd say most anything based around a N100/300 CPU with 2+ NICs will work fine.

So many broken joysticks...
