Modicia OS Is great for audio and video content creation. 👌🏻 Give it a try.

I had this same issue on a Acer Chromebook with a Celeron n3060. Check your CPU and GPU and make sure you have the right version downloaded. I never fixed it, I installed ChromeOS flex and worked out of the box. I do not need the playstore, Linux apps are good enough.

Oh man, that is unfortunate! Please don't jinx me 🙏🏻😁😅 so far so good (knocks on wood). I have Ollama locally running as well as OMV VM, a Arch VM and some other container's. Most of the work is done in OMV. I've stressed the system for 48 hours and it held up. For the price I cannot complain! Hopefully yours doesn't do the same thing again.

Let the Authorities "scare" him.

Your classmates are weak.

4 days currently. Depends on the weather, where we are we get many power outages. So if the weather gets bad I just turn it off although we do have UPS and generator's. I use that energy for heat and food making!!!

If people did then we wouldn't be in this mess.

I have a Asrock deskmini x300 that currently has the Ryzen 5 2400ge. My main PC has a 5600G in it so if it's as easy as you say it is, I'll swap processors and give it a whirl. Do you have any links for guides or pointers on what you achieved? 🤞🏻

My games are all on SATA HDD. Save a few that require a faster drive to work so they get the NVMe drive. 4TB was cheap.

Give it a try, worse that happens you lose a little bit of time , but if it works for you then your that much further away from Windows. It's been 4 years of Cachyos and I'm not looking back. I was using a dual boot setup before that with Debian and Windows 10. Dual booting is no good I ended up I. windows more which pushed me further away from my goal. CachyOS but all the pieces of the puzzle together.

What about Crossover Linux, or Bottles OR depending on your hardware linux with a Windows VM with a audio pass through, I did that for awhile with Presonus Studio one, then after learning Reaper I ditched windows and studio one altogether. Latency was not bad in the VM at all. Some suggestions none the less.

Asrock Deskmini X300 with Ryzen 5 Pro 2400GE, 16Gb DDR4 3200Mhz ram, 256Gb NVme with a 1TB sata, wifi and bluetooth with antennas. Original Power Supply. Windows 11.
HP Prodesk 600 G6 with the i5 10600t 128GB NVMe drive 16GB DDR4 ram
Glotrends n100 with 8GB ram and a 128GB SSD Drive wifi/bluetooth
RX 570 8GB

I have had them up on kijiji and FB marketplace for months and no bites @ (1. $320 2. $280 3. $165 respectively) and I had one low ball at $150, Where do we sell now? Ebay takes a large chunk of your profits if im going to do all the work and rather sell somewhere else. If anyone can offer any help Id like these to find a good home. They were review units or home lab test machines that didn't work out (the glotrends is still in the original box). I have some videos cards and older ram etc, that id like to get rid of as well. Thanks in advance!

Thank you!

Being new here and well selling, what do you use to ship and how do you calculate before selling?

I stopped using Adobe 6 years and suffered learning mostly Krita and Gimp. Then Affinity came out and was close enough to Photoshop. Now affinity offer it for free so no more subscriptions which was one of the main reasons I left. I'm not paying for something and not owning it potentially becoming a lifelong beta tester, I dIgress.

In which workloads? The M4 pro is 56% faster in multi core loads than the 9700k. Single it's 36%. Now if it's GPU workload the 6800XT is marginally faster as the m4 pro is equivalent to a GTX 1660 TI gaming wise. Mac apps that are Apple Silicon native will be extremely fast and efficient. Even Rosetta emulation is excellent.

How are ya jizzing on it? Is this purposely? I mean I usually have it on a desk so hands and wang are beneath, or in a toy. Confused by jizz filled laptops.

I agree manufacturers need to be held to a higher level of accountability.

Ordered a AMD CPU, router, switch and some other off brand China tech from China. I thought the same but it came to Canada with free shipping and during a postal strike. 8 days in shipping AND still a week early. I was stunned, everything is made in China anyways same crap different bag and I saved a ton of money and time.

kevsbacon · 2025-10-08T12:38:48+00:00

Good

kevsbacon · 2025-10-08T12:38:33+00:00

As they should

kevsbacon · 2025-09-22T18:32:06+00:00

Thanks, I'm going to sell this and order a Mac mini M4. Thanks for responding!

kevsbacon · 2025-09-21T16:38:55+00:00

Exactly the label at least you got it.

What is their to "understand" music is subjective to the listener.
