By any chance are any of these quasi-drm-free (as in, can run after buying without using steam as the launcher)? I bought Red Alert and the original C&C on Origin when they released there, and I had a bit of buyer's remorse for needing to use the launcher. GoG has spoiled me I guess.
If you use uBlock Origin, you might try experimenting with [right click] > [block element]. Success will vary between sites, but you can clean up quite a bit of stuff this way.

This is worth trying if OP hasn't gotten it yet (looks like it's been a couple of weeks). I've had to do this, even recently, same error message at the same stage selecting the target drive. (I think the system was even of the same era, Z97.) Leaving the intended boot drive as the only internal...
Just noting my unit corroborates with various "v1" info so far:
-model "Maestro-Ebook11" per bottom label
-bios date 04/28/2020
-audio realtek ALC269 (works out of box with ubuntu/mint
-wifi realtek rtl8723du (works with ubuntu/mint/probably many after compile)
One thing i've been curious...
If I recall, mine read as alc269 according to software used in windows. And it worked out of the box with ubuntu 20.04, so I too am puzzled by the reported audio issues.
Although I did have an unusual knocking noise with either the built in mic or a mic hooked to the 3.5mm jack. Not surewhat...
A shot in the dark, but at one point i changed a bios setting for OS from Windows (default) to "intel linux". Same thing, could not get back in. Had to pull battery to reset settings and made a not to just leave that setting alone.
I had lubuntu running on this prior to regularbuntu but could...
Was able to get wifi going on ubuntu 20.04, but it requires manual build, reference: https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8723du
Of course, since no wifi driver out of the box, you will need to fetch the repo on another machine with internet and transfer it via flash drive or something. In addition...
I'm not the first to say this, probably not the first 1000 even, but it's really an anime for people that don't even like anime. Will agree with peppergomez 100%, it is in a class above what most anime is associated with.
Not some copy-paste shounen cheese or kawaii magical schoolgirl shit...
OP, this is a little off from the main focus of this thread, but be advised of handbrake's really bad default AAC encoder. For lack of a longer explanation, they tore out the good quality AAC encoder in recent builds due to some licensing and left in something awful. I noticed one day that the...
In my amateur opinion: no.
Soldering these back on is (relatively speaking) easy mode, assuming you can separate the components from the heatsink in order to have physical access to the tight spaces (also assuming it did not rip the metal connection out of the components stuck on the heatsink)...
How ... did you come to find that out? Regardless, for some reason (lack of sleep? mental degradation?) I can't stop geeking in my chair about how funny that is.
And I guess since the thread is based on privacy/security, it merits mention that the quoted practice.. is ironically probably a...
There are socket/pinout diagrams.
https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/amd/packages/socket_am4#Pin_Map
Fair warning, I don't know how accurate this is, or where that page sourced its info from.
Edit: i also don't know which way that diagram is oriented, e.g. whether that is looking at the socket or the...
It's like it was used in a submersion-cooling rig, but the builder used water instead of oils...
We'll never know, since I imagine removing that cooler is going to peel off half the components.
Once had a 1x Firewire card to make some older video backups, but pulled it when done.
Only other occupant I can think of is a wireless adapter when needed.
Seems like such overkill. 1 lane of 3rd gen, @ 4 lanes of 1st gen, where each Gen1 lane is the two Gigabit connections. Wireless is...
With the old site now gone, it's interesting to consider the legacy. Thought it was neat that not more than a couple months ago, Gordon "Freemand's Mind" lamented the loss of an old DirectX 9/10 comparison.

Make an offer if you disagree with the pricing, I may or may not take it but no harm in asking!
8GB of matching 2 x 4GB DDR3 desktop/240-pin. Ran mine at 9-9-9-24 1600 1.35V, YMMV.

To be fair, they've outsourced most aspects of development to the playerbase for years. Yeah, I'm going for the low hanging fruit, but it's delicious fruit.
matt167 If you are looking for GTA-style games, GET Sleeping Dogs at that price. I haven't bothered with other GTA-likes, but I thought SD was really, really good
I have been trying it out, have run into some hiccups but like the monetization concept.
Which as I understand it is basically a monthly distribution from the wallet the browser creates, proportionate in one way or another to the amount of time recorded as spent on a given page or site...
