anyone have a WiFi adapter that they can confirm works well on #Linux ?
(Linux Mint to be exact)

in case anyone wants to investigate my weird af setup lol

Is there a way to stop Windows from auto installing drivers excluding disabling the network connection?
This is not meant as a permanent setting and more so temporary since I wanna install the drivers myself

Currently split between installing Linux Mint or Fedora Cinnamon Spin

Has anyone ever tested this? I would like a Win10 ISO that already has the latest updates so I don't spent almost 2 hours installing updates
I do know their XP ISO is very good but I never tried this one

I knew that SATA SSDs are getting cheaper but this is almost ridiculously cheap.
In case you haven't been up to date with me
I plan to hook a SSD as the main storage to my raspberry pi via USB 3.0

Rather curious question
I know that (at least by official clients means) I need to log into my Google account to subscribe to channels on YouTube
My question is, can I do that without having a public profile on YouTube itself
I know that to some there may be no point as long as I don't upload anything in the first place but I personally don't even want my profile visible there as I only wanna use it for watching stuff
Don't even need the like and comment functionality

Hey'ya people
I am back again with wild ideas :3
So I currently plan to use an old SSD in my Experimental ThinkPad and use it for my RPi4 simply because I am not really actively using that ThinkPad and because I want a faster and more stable storage
Now here is the thing
I have USB 3.0 SATA cases that allow to connect any SATA drive and hook it up to USB 3.0
The thing is I have seen many people making all sorts of adapters via the GPIO of the Raspberry
My question is
Would it be worth it to get an adapter for the GPIO or is the speed similar to when I just plug in the drive via USB?
The only issue I noticed with the USB method recently is that it seems to cause lagging to the Raspberry.
Tho this may have been at fault for using a HDD instead of a SSD.
Also to make sure this is clear, the SSD is meant to take over the entire operating system of the Pi and not just be used as extended storage.

Hello everyone,
i have decided to from now on only run #Linux on my machine
I decided to go with Arch and like last time i have these interesting "missing firmware" messages poping-up
The interesting part is that there doesn't seem to be anything wrong which is why i can't really imagine there being actual missing firmware.
Can maybe someone a little more experienced in this help me out?
