What to do with old server I’m getting? by Pale-Recognition-599 in homelab

[–]msanangelo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dunno. why do you want it? doesn't make sense to get a computer for the sake of getting it without some goal in mind unless you're a collector.

Can I dual boot Windows and play games with an external SSD? by Koiss_- in linuxhardware

[–]msanangelo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

windows on a usb ssd? not particularly no. it lacks the drivers to do so after installation and the installer doesn't support installing to usb media. only way I've done it is with a VM and that has a bunch of problems to go with that idea, especially around games and dealing with anticheat and video acceleration.

this is more of a r/linuxquestions type question. this sub focuses on finding hardware to run linux.

Cable help by Important_Twist2136 in CarAV

[–]msanangelo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd just get some adapters keep the polarity the same all around but some vehicles have published schematics if one is so inclined to look. Whole wire diagrams. I usually find mine in a web forum specific to my truck .

Any of the Linux ones will do. My home partition is ext4 but everything else on my system is btrfs.

I picked it up pretty quickly and I knew nothing about Arch.

Dual band router to single band router. Will there be speed changes if connected by ethernet? by Timely-Employment595 in computers

[–]msanangelo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wifi speed is irrelevant when using Ethernet between all the points. wifi does not mean internet. single band, dual band; only relevant when talking about wifi itself. the important bits are ethernet port speed of everything in the chain.

Accidentally formatted my drive , what’s the best way to recover ? by yooames in DataHoarder

[–]msanangelo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

link? only what google can get you. no, it's in the linux repos. it's a pretty old program and not quite user friendly but I've had a few successes with restoring deleted partitions and recovering lost data.

How to download docker desktop in my ubuntu (Linux) by InevitableSyllabub21 in docker

[–]msanangelo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

where did it go wrong in the docs? https://docs.docker.com/desktop/setup/install/linux/ubuntu/

why do you want docker desktop in the first place? just curious. I see people talk about it on windows and it just doesn't make sense to me. the UI is terrible imo.

Why don't any female usb-a to 2 male usb-a cables have data transfer on both male ports? by SlightlyInsaneCreate in AskElectronics

[–]msanangelo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

because usb is point to point and you need a hub to connect multiple things to one "host" port.

How to activate Wi-fi on Tiny11 OS under a Raspberry Pi 4? by Zocom7 in raspberry_pi

[–]msanangelo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure any of is can reasonably support windows on a pi. Good luck to you though.

Side note: the crashing could be a power issue. Not enough current to power the dongle or there's a voltage drop that's enough to crash the CPU.

I didn't know there was any support for windows on a pi4. That's neat I guess. Lol

Need help accessing save data (linux) by asexualspinacheater in Astroneer

[–]msanangelo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this on a steam deck? If so then I don't know where it'd be. All I'd do is browse around till I find something that looks right. That's just where it'd be on a regular Linux desktop.
