I bought an off-lease laptop as usual (got a 32GB laptop for less than the price of RAM). It came with Windows 11, but I'd rather have Linux on the more powerful laptop and Windows on my previous one. S… ★ 1 Listening to old technical conferences can be amusing. I've just discovered that not so long ago, when a large ISP in Poland started requiring TLS for SMTP, it was controversial. Many professionals at the conference protested against the b… My first PC: total disk space 40MB My current PC: update to Intel graphics driver 940MB ★ 1
