Are there any machines in use anymore that don't support UEFI? When did it become standard? Something like 2012?

I didn't even wait for expiration. I went ahead and moved all of mine into Cloudflare last night.

I have a zx01 or something like that from AliExpress with an N100 and 16GB. Those little machines are seriously impressive. It's running Garuda and my son has not complained once about any game he's tried to play. I don't play games, I just bought it on a whim cause it's tiny and $150 or so. I've run several systems on it without a hitch. I'm pretty certain it'll hose a Minecraft server without an issue.

I'm currently using Arch and doing the same thing. I learned more than a decade ago not to even bother with asking questions to the community at large. Bunch of self righteous dicks they are.

I currently have it running on a Zimaboard 216 which has a Celeron N3450 processor. Runs perfectly fine. Also have an instance running in proxmox with 2 cores and 1GB. Runs perfectly fine. I don't know what the documented requires are but I can say from experience, it doesn't need much.

Can you not learn by extrapolation?

Watch the video if you want greater detail.

This guy makes some of the best Linux content on the Internet. This walk through is spot on and if you're having trouble with the written guide, watch the video and you can do it along with him in several different scenarios. I can't say enough good things about his content.

pfSense on a ZimaBoard 216 works astonishingly well and it's easy to setup and manage. Toss in a Mikrotik CSS610 and you have a vlan ready setup in under an hour.

If you don't like the ZimaBoard, you can go with any of the Topton style router PCs from AliExpress for a couple hundred and have a 2.5Gb router running in proxmox with docker in a separate VM.

I have two copper lights and hate carrying them both. My daily is a Convoy T3 Ti. I like the patina and the look of a copper light but I hate the smell and copper is a soft metal so drops really show up. The Ti has been through hell and shows almost no signs of wear.

I'm thinking about getting into tinfoil hat manufacturing cause they're about to sell out.
