I’ve done this with Debian before, and it works fine. Linux usually mounts the root filesystem based on its UUID, so it doesn’t matter if changing the motherboard caused a change from /dev/sda to /dev/sdb .
If you use the proprietary Nvidia driver, make sure to update it to a version that supports the new video card. If you use the open source Nvidia driver, you should be fine even if it’s old, because it will at least support starting up in an unaccelerated mode.
Trump isn’t the politician I most loathe. He’s just the only politician that I’ve ever feared might kill or imprison me purely for who I am.
The article is from December, so the interviewer couldn’t have asked about their CEO’s recent betrayal: https://insights.priva.cat/p/does-proton-still-stand-for-anything
Of these 3, the Pixel 9. It can run both GrapheneOS and CalyxOS.
The Pixel 8a can also run both, but it only costs $400. CalyxOS will support both phones until 2031.
No, I would rate-limit them. OP is getting a non-rate-limited block. If OP has an ISP problem where they can’t access the site, this VPN may be their only option.
I think catloaf’s idea is good, but no tech company accepts RMA requests by paper mail.
I don’t use VPNs, but plenty of sites using datadome.co will arbitrarily block me at my residential ISP. datadome.co will first ask you to complete a captcha, and upon your success, you are immediately blocked with no recourse. Here’s a typical screenshot: (not mine)
The “contact support” link opens a contact form that goes to a black hole. I’ve filled out dozens, and never gotten a response.
That’s no excuse. An RMA form is something that all their customers are entitled to use. If anyone finds their IP address blocked, even a VPN IP address, then their warranty claim has effectively been blocked for an invalid reason.
The company has failed their warranty obligations.
I agree with this. In the US you can only be compelled to answer questions if you are given immunity, which will almost never happen.

Wrong link? I couldn’t find the article.
I must disagree. For example, the Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act entitles you to use aftermarket parts in your product without invalidating your warranty, as long as the aftermarket parts don’t cause damage. I agree with the spirit of this law, and I believe software should be considered a “part” in this context.
The key has to be stored somewhere to be able to use it. This is full disk encryption, so every single sector that is read or written (except some boot and kernel stuff, presumably) needs to go through that encryption key. You could maybe store it in a cryptographic coprocessor that uses SRAM for the key and key schedule, but those are very uncommon now that AES-NI is popular. And I don’t think AES-NI has any special registers that could help here.
I assume they think the Windows login password will keep them safe. I don’t know. But many corporate computers (several I’ve been forced to use) do use Bitlocker without a password.
Yes, assuming it’s durably sealed and tamper-proof. If you have enough physical access, though, you can remove the DRAM and put it in another machine to scrape it. This adds time, but it has been done before. One experiment dipped the DRAM in liquid nitrogen for an hour, and found 0.13% decay.
A “cold boot” attack. These have been around for a while.
The degredation is not a huge barrier. Spraying inverted canned air can cool the DRAM enough to preserve it for a little while, even long enough to switch it to a new motherboard. Whenever the motherboard is powered, the DRAM is being refreshed, so won’t degrade. A few bits lost is no fatal flaw, since most cold boot attack algorithms search for long key schedules, not just the key.
Bitlocker is extra vulberable because it stores the key in the TPM and requires no password to boot. An attacker can extract the key even if the computer is off when they get it.
I love that these have borders around the buttons. I wish more interfaces would do that. It used to be standard.
Does this version include the Anthropocene Extinction pack? If not, I’ll continue hoping it gets canceled.
Yeah, try pressing Alt+[PrintScreen, F] to invoke the OOM killer. It kills the memory-hoggingest process, usually the web browser.
Fedora documentation says this sysrq functionality may be disabled by default. You can enable it once by typing at a terminal: echo 1 | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq or permanently with echo 'kernel.sysrq = 1' | sudo tee /etc/sysctl.d/90-sysrq.conf
If it turns out that memory overconsumption is the problem, you can sometimes fix this lag by disabling swap. 16GB is easily enough RAM to do all normal desktop things.
Yeah, that. My preferences go: chicken > steak > pork > beans == lentils == hamburger > impossible meat > lab-grown meat > mechanically separated meat > starvation > insect meat
If also taking into account environmental concerns, test tube protein sinks further while beans and lentils rise to the top.
