Thank you for the information!

I do have Libreboot on all my computers, my T1700 MT is currently Librebooted, that’s the server I’m planning on using this card with. I wonder, since the firmware is nearly entirely open, we can possibly support it then, no?

Yeah, she’s gone lol, I mean I’m 20 and she was 29 with a 9 year old kid and that’s not really what I want in a relationship. But oh my god she was easily the most attractive girl I’ve ever talked to, both in terms of looks and personality.

The errors went away at boot, but nothing happens now, its just stuck. I just see the _ blinking that’s it. Going to try installing Arch and see if I can get it working better.

The healthiest relationships stem from natural friendships because you build up a base of stuff in common and have a lot of trust before you ever make the jump to “do you wanna go out with me?”

See, that’s where I fucked up. My dumbass texted her at 12AM and asked if she wanted to hang out the next day (She’s usually up around that time, we both goto the gym around 11PM, which is why I thought it was okay). But we had only talked around 4-5 times, each conversation we had was good, but when it comes to texting, I fail miserably there. I think I just got too excited to meet her, and was a bit too forward. I completely messed up. Well, now I know not to do that again at least, lesson learned :(

I have to be honest, this made my day

Speaking of Linux, where can I find a woman who’s into that? Defcon?

Didn’t mean it like that. The girl I just talked to came to me first. I really don’t expect every girl to come of me but you’re right regardless. I just was a bit sad.

Yes, I install Libreboot myself with a RaspberryPi and Pomona 5250 testing clip. Anything that’s already supported by Coreboot, can be supported to Libreboot. They have a list of hardware that they currently support listed here:

I actually sold Libreboot laptops previously on eBay, I used to sell the T440p a lot. Now, I’m about to setup my own website so I can start selling them for even cheaper. I also helped add Libreboot support for the Dell Optiplex 9020/7020 (Real thanks goto Mate Kukri, as I used his Optiplex port from Coreboot).

Yes, I did it for freedom. Here’s my battlestation:

You right, my bad bro

Exactly, it’s not crazy to think like that. I mean, the person who said that could be right, but still, let’s not immediately jump to conclusions by saying they have mental issues.

Well, who else in the world has been trying to a pass multibillion dollar aid package to Ukraine for the past couple months? The aid is about to get voted on this weekend.

Jobs that only do weekdays are such a blessing, I hated working rotating shift!

A bit, it’s actually not too bad. Rarely any micro stuttering on ultra settings in RDR2, I am actually planning on buying the AMD 7900XTX graphics card to put in this machine. I want to run local LLMs on it, I’m not too much of a gamer as I used to be. Anyways, this thing rocks! I love it. Eventually, I’ll plan on buying a MSI Z690-A DDR5 motherboard and install Dasharo firmware onto it.

It can play all my games at 1440p and ultra settings (RDR2, GTA V, etc.) I’ve never had a time where I’ve wanted to upgrade from it. I built most of this computer for about $450-$500, all used parts I got off eBay plus some other parts that I pulled from my other computer

Yeah that’s pretty much my setup, don’t know if it’s really strange or not lol

She looks like a 60 year old cat lady in that photo

Wondering too, since Docker has a non-root mode, is there a reason to use Podman?
