I've got an Acer Aspire from 2008 running mint on an Intel Atom and 1 GB memory (might be 2, I forget). It is slow but very usable except for video and such.

Do you have the original disc? As I recall Wine runs it just fine.

This is sort of the plot of Children of Time

If it helps the real version is still pretty cool, with basically two transmissions and switches on the shifter

Its a fairly meaningless article. Basically Japanese mathematician constructed a theorem, a few other Japanese scientists believe it, and he badmouths everyone else.

Yeah its pretty bad. I have two dell latitudes, one from about 2015 and one newish one. Opensuse on the old one, Win11 on the new one, guess which one isn't all laggy

Also the miniseries with Kenneth Branagh is pretty good. Then for counterpoint watch The Last Place on Earth

Yep I used these till the tape deck broke and phones stopped having earphone plugs

And the rest of the progress was deleting all the snapshots. Worked great after that.

Not exactly daily but the shovel I use to clean out my grill ashes was my grandfather's, hand forged and used for branding iron fires, gotta be 100 years old. Then a phonograph from 1960.

Wild guess here. Looks like the downspout and gutter are also painted matte black, perhaps they had a discount painter paint everything they saw as an external fixture.

Doesn't look like a camera to me though. Looks more like a very large electronic weather sensor.

There are probably some of us still sitting on free ESXi hosts, but as I've gotten off mine to Proxmox ive been pretty pleased so far. Leave ESXi, it was a great way to learn but Proxmox is more better.

Here is the one big trick I learned: if using the native import tool, shutdown the source VM and delete all the snapshots! Each snapshot adds an exponential slowdown due to the crappy API. If importing windows, remove the VMWare Guest Tools first. That seems to make the import process work pretty well. Linux and FreeBSD don't seem to care but Windows sure does.

Live cam from the Lady Bird Johnson wildflower center of Athena the great horned owl and her two owlets. They're gonna fledge soon, watch while ya can

 

Not finding a lot of info on using Proxmox import wizard to extract VMs from an ESXi free license host. I can add the host as storage and see the VMs but it looks like it's failing afterwards due to possibly some kind of rate limit error? But I know the free version API is either closed or not available. Any ideas? Thanks!
