Rufus default options: Remove requirements for 4GB RAM, Secure Boot, and TPM 2.0 Remove requirement for an online Microsoft account

Wait, are you telling me that if I want a linked-cloneable Win11 VM, I need to create a Win10 VM and then upgrade it to Win11? That sounds silly. Can't I just use Rufus to achieve the same goal?

Of course it is silly. But also silly (IMO) is that Rufus […]

setup /product server being run on a Windows 10 system

Windows 11 upgrade done. Local account. No TPM.

Do you or somebody you know have a Windows 10 that isn't fit for a Windows 11 upgrade? (e.g. no TPM)

1. Get a Windows 11 25H2 ISO
2. Run `setup /product server`



Enjoy your Windows 11 with no coerced Microsoft Account, TPM features, etc.

One constant annoyance with bringing pins to expos is people starting a multi player game, playing a ball or two and then walking away. The next player gets a seemingly endless game, which they'll probably abandon too. Quick power cycles don't do favors for the […]

And now for something completely different - the 3D maze screensaver from Windows 95, ported to a few modern platforms, including macOS (by me)

It's also playable! But I gotta admit I’m no good at 3D mazes! […]

Paging @foone to the courtesy phone. Keyboards, and fonts from old DOS games.

2/4 Digit 3 in1 PCI PCI-E PC Analyzer Analysis Diagnostic USB Card POST Card | eBay 3 in1 PC Diagnostic Card. 3 in 1 Mini PCI / Mini PCI-E / LPC 2-Digit PC analyzer for notebook. 1 x Mini PCI / Mini PCI-E / LPC 2-Digit PC Analyzer. 1 x PC PCI Diagnostic Card. Raspberry Pi. 2 PC Diagnostic Card.

@foone you'd appreciate this- there are actually expansion cards that do both PCI and ISA on the same board: https://www.ebay.com/itm/162880368874 Also, check out that board using a parallel port and USB for power- that feels kinda cursed. #weirdhardware #pci #isa

Ultramarine Linux homescreen on my Pixelbook (2017) screen, successfully installed!

Here's something the fedi will enjoy... I got #linux running on my old chromebook!

This is my first plunge into running/tinkering with Linux, and I was a bit scared (especially flashing custom firmware to run Coreboot) but the process proved easier than […]

@christinelove @spookysquid @mcc One of the streamers I watch was just playing Öoo https://store.steampowered.com/app/2721890/oo/ and it's absolutely the kind of game you'd like- charming, simple controls, and a self-tutorializing game loop that teaches you everything you need to know right as […]

@artandtechnic Just picked up a Sony DVD recorder from a thrift store- how does this fit into the VHS capture process? I've got a capture card, VCR, and a TBC already. Thanks

Assembly code between iOS 4.0 and 4.0.1. It's basically the same except one instruction points to a different address.

A lookup table tweaked between 4.0 and 4.0.1.

hey wanna see something kinda interesting? this was the entire fix to the iPhone Antennagate in 2010. 20 bytes.

@christinelove Congrats on the book launch!

@XOrgDevConf Hi, if I missed any of the talks, how can I catch up on them? Thanks

@pancakescon @hacks4pancakes Thanks for another amazing conference!

I seriously wonder why Microsoft thinks anyone wants these Copilot buttons everywhere in Windows www.theverge.com/news/782194/...

Stone Tools Exploring retro productivity software from the 8/16-bit era. No games, just work.

@Thorsted Have you seen this new blog yet? https://stonetools.ghost.io/ "Exploring retro productivity software from the 8/16-bit era. No games, just work." (h/t @misty )

@misty If I want to get one of the supported drivers for redumper, do I actually need to match the exact firmware version, or will any drive with the model number work? (usually the full drive label isn't on display with the firmware version, so it's tricky)

The Salesloft homepage says "Put your wins on repeat", and features the scrolling logos of several dozen customers, including IBM, Blackbaud, Citrix, Stripe, 3M, Shopify, Lexmark, SAP Concur and others.

New, from me:

The recent mass-theft of authentication tokens from Salesloft, whose AI chatbot is used by a broad swath of corporate America to convert customer interaction into Salesforce leads, has left many companies racing to invalidate the stolen […]

The Qingping Air Monitor Light showed up. For AU$114 shipped it seems very good, a more polished product than I was expecting.

It needs Wi-Fi if you want to change any settings - […]

Last week trump announced plans to "review" 8 Smithsonian museums. Today he doubled down, very explicit about the intent to revise history to reflect the ethno-nationalist fantasy of US history.

You can do something about that! We are backing up the digital archives of those museums on sciop […]

A photographer friend of mine had one of her sd memory cards die after a photo shoot. She’s tried Easeus and it can recover about 1300 of 1600 files, but she’s asking if there are other tools/tricks anyone knows from the forensics community that might be able to get the rest. I have a feeling […]
