    Yes, and putting someone in jail is not restricting freedom because they can still walk around in their little jail cell...
     
    For those wondering, censorship is defined as:
    or:
     
    Just because you have other ways of communicating something doesn't mean the act of taking options away isn't censorship. By that logic, China isn't censoring anything at all. Them banning certain words on websites? That's not censorship because people can still say those words in their own homes. It's a silly argument to make that shows a lack of understanding of the word.
     
     
     
    People said the same thing about books, movies, music, and so on.

    Considering it's just two wires, probably goes to some led on the plastic making a logo glow, or something like that.

    Still no idea what you mean, i225 should show as igc0, igc1, igc2, igc3.
     
    Given how cheap this device is, they may be using the old faulty i225 chips which will cause issues.  You should specifically look for devices with i225 B3 or i226 which fixed the issues.

    That IS buying a key, download is saying you don't want physical media. What you download is the same as from the install media site.

    I'm sorry but can you uhh..
     
    Fix up your post because I'm having brain damage from reading this post over and over again to understand what language you're speaking but alas.
     
    No interfaces found means it cannot detect those ports.
     
    You're saying before installation there was interfaces available but after installation there is no interface available?
     
    Hence error no interfaces and else i can't figure out the questions you have.

    Watch in cinema or fullscreen mode - problem solved. Imo YouTube's player is by far the best of all the current streaming platforms.

    You know there are buttons to increase the size of the video or even go fullscreen? Check the buttons in the lower right hand corner of the video. You can also simply close that chat window.

    Noted.
     
      
    The installer usually needs to be on one form or another during installation or am I remembering wrong again? As you can't choose GPT or MBR during installation?
    Though if they come GPT from factory there is no reason to worry anyway.
     
    Edit (again): if the disk is in MBR, then this might help:

    They are installing Windows fresh, you don't need any of this to do that.

    No, just select the free space in the installer and it'll do what's needed on its own.

    This is what I had in my reddit saved posts for a while. It was lack of HCVI support.

    I thought it was because of the TPM version, but I haven't looked into it again yet.
     
    The i7-7700K meet the minimun requierments to run Win11. But its not suported, Why? - Microsoft Community Hub
     
    There's not even an instruction set extension difference, so it does seem like planned obsolescence.

    Lurick reacted to Godlygamer23 in How much internet speed do you actually need?   
    For the cost change alone, the fiber connection is obviously the best value, and even if you don't consume all of the bandwidth, consuming more bandwidth than either of the other options alone makes it worth the extra cost IMO.

    I would absolutely take 10 times the speed for an additional $10/mo.
     
    Just having symmetrical speeds would be a game-changer. I'm on cable and I get about 500 down, 20 up. It sounds like my ISP is finally beginning to roll out DOCSIS 4.0 in my area, and they claim their plans will finally have symmetrical speeds.

    Lurick reacted to Agall in 4x16 or 2x32   
    If we're talking about a dual channel CPU, DDR5 especially, then 2x32GB is objectively better. The only reason to run 4 DIMMs in 2024 is if you need more than 96GB of RAM (then just go with an HEDT system really) or you want the aesthetics of all 4 DIMMs. Aesthetics are a reason to do something, but I don't think a very good one especially if it potentially compromises performance/stability.

    Some company make inert blanks for aesthetics as well, where its basically dummy RAM sticks. Not that common though anymore, it seems.

    It's an either or, not a yes or no.
     
    If same price, go 2x.  Easier on memory controllers.
     
    Go 4x if your OCD runs your life.

    Lurick reacted to Donut417 in wifi faster than ethernet?   
    Doesnt work that way. Ethernet is is 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps , 1 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, 5 Gbps or 10 Gbps. Nothing in between. 4 wires are needed for at least 100 Mbps, all 8 are needed for Gigabit and above. My only guess is maybe an issue with Windows, the driver, or some other software causing an issue.
