There's a lot of FOSS nerds here who get disgusted at you if you suggest someone use a web browser that isn't Firefox. But if you hung around on the Linux/FOSS subreddits, you'd get the exact same thing...

Generally it's best to update if there's a major issue with your CPU that is fixed. It wasn't that long ago that the 7000-series CPUs had issues with motherboards being configured to over-volt one of the pins and melt the CPU from the inside (the updates have since rectified this).

I think they're referring to the use of a Windows 7 key to get a Windows 10/11 upgrade?

I actually considered this (I have a 7950X) but I recall someone on Gentoo's forums saying you shouldn't use them all even on the best liquid cooler. The heat from that would be a major issue.

Oh wow, I have the same CPU and GPU setup (different brand on the latter tho).

In any case, you picked great for Linux.

You can technically generate deadmau5 by requesting it to make a mau5head.

The original is great and the remix kicks ass. Nice to see some demoscene appreciation here.

System76 also sell full-AMD builds. Friend of mine got the Pangolin which has an AMD CPU with integrated graphics. No it's not gonna thrash through everything but it works for him.

I had to help a friend install the VMware kernel modules, since VMware is weird and VirtualBox sucks for virtualising Windows. I had to guide him through it step by step, making sure his commands were exact.

He's only started using the terminal properly. Hell no, I'm not going to recommend Arch to him.

Been missing Polandball since leaving the other site.

I'll sometimes buy CDs off Amazon, but even that is happening less and less.

Yeah. ChatGPT does the same thing. I presume if you haven't used the share options you're good, but still. Big oof on Google's part.
