Don’t connect to internet, Shift f10 to bring up command prompt, oobe/bypassnro, wait for restart, click I don’t have internet, make local account. Did it today.

When were you a really little kid?

I used to use Cinelerra back in the day. It’s a non-linear editor like Premiere. If I could figure it out with YouTube more than a decade ago, it shouldn’t be too hard.

Just booted mine up and you’re correct about the size of Mint Mate. It’s about 14Gb. I don’t remeber what OS was 4Gb.

Also for extra security I added 2FA to my sign in. Anytime I enter a login password I need to get a code from the authenticator app on my phone.

I have a similar set up (with a 32gb built in SSD). I use it when traveling. In my experience running an OS off of an SD kills the card in about a year and it dies without warning. Make sure you don’t save anything important on there without a back up.

Love what you’ve done here and can’t wait to see more of your projects.

Mint Mate will run like fire on that little guy. Plus a full install is less than 4Gb. Using the built in SSD with full disk encryption would give you a really secure laptop, especially since the SSD is not removable.

That last cold front was a bitch. It was 12F (-11C) when I left the house today, yesterday the high was 32F (0C) and tomorrow it’s going to be 72F (22C)

Windows Server 2022 kicks 2000 in the balls, does a line of coke, and crashes.

Those are the ones I would attack too. I’d also like to send a shout out to the 5 corroded ones on the right.

Also, bitlocker is not the only disk encryption software for Windows. It’s just the built in one. If you wanted, you could use something like Veracrypt which is open source and will play nicely with all your OSes.

I find it hard to believe you’re not buying a second Raspberry pi.

There’s a Raspberry pi project you’ve been wanting to start. Sounds like now is the time.

According to Google, Stewart started smoking in 1955 and quit in 2000. Smoking doesn’t really appear to be thing in the Star Trek future.

Not if you’re in Mexico. Elotes con mayonesa is real and millions of people love it.
