Yeah my TV will never get internet access again. Using my computer with my TV as a screen is way better.

I'm glad I deleted that Windows partition since I didn't use it anyways. And in typical Microsoft fashion they don't acknowledge there's even a problem leaving people in the dark. I'm never going back to Windows.

I have a couple of external USB drives I bought on sale I backup my NAS to once a week. It'll protect against drive failure at least. Almost got hit by ransomware a while back so I don't keep anything on there without some backup.

I've tried it. I like the idea of Tor for torrents, you don't need a VPN to torrent. But found the speeds to be really bad and the content was a fraction of the clearnet trackers. Might check it out again though it's been a while.

Yes me too. As bad as humanity seems sometimes, always good to remind yourself of the kindness from the likes of seeders in OP.

You need to bridge your network adapter so you are on the same network subnet. When you bridge the VM appears on the same network. The default is NAT which by default is a different subnet. Like you, the host are on 192.168.1.0/24 and the VM, the guest is on 192.168.122.0/24. Unless you have two network adapters(if so you could let the VM have it) unlike most people bridged is what you're looking for. VPN tunnel is usually when you are remote of your VM so unnecessary IMO.

Ok ja det kan va olika passthrough, är inte jättepåläst, det verkar rätt komplicerat. Tänkte nåt sånt här. Eller detta typ som man låter ett VM ta full kontroll över en USB-enhet men iom grafikkortet även ger bild så försvinner ju den från hosten ifall man skickar det till VMet så då måste ju något annat ta över. Verkar kräva två uppsättningar kablar kopplade till vardera GPU. Du pratar om en slags laptoplösning för en desktop?

Det blev Ollama, fick igång det förut och har provat Llama 3.1 8B, Codegemma 7b och fick precis igång Mistral Nemo Instruct du tipsade om. Var lite pilligt att få den att använda GPUn, 6700XT har inte stöd än av ROCm tydligen men funkar om man lurar den att det är ett 6800 med en miljövariabel. Då gick det genast mycket fortare mot CPUn som det var först. Ja sant med VRAMen det går åt en del, eftersom Plasma med Firefox och lite annat igång vill ha runt 3 GB. Llama 3.1 8B vill ha 7GB VRAM så har 20% ungefär kvar att använda.

Har ju bara doppat tårna precis men kul att vara igång. Skönt att inte mata nån modell i molnet längre den här vägen blir det i fortsättningen. Ska fördjupa mig lite senare när jag får mer tid över. Sparar ditt inlägg, bra info. Tack för hjälpen.

Daily mail does it as well. Cancer. But not hard to circumvent with Firefox and some extensions.

They want you to buy their new games. They also want you to be more likely to buy the old games again when they eventually do a sloppy re-release of the old games or tie it to increase the value of their subscription offerings. Basically to make more money.

Thanks for reminding me. Yeah I need to backup my ROM library of old games. Got most of them from Vimm's lair earlier this year. They had to take down a lot of the games shortly after cause threats of law suit from Nintendo, Sega among others. It's just absurd many of the games on there are not even available legally anymore.

Well there is far less malware on Linux tbf so comparison is not completely accurate. But same caution applies, try to vet and understand what you install. That part is also easier with the AUR as it's transparent in the packagebuild what it does unlike random exes with closed source. It's also a large community with many eyes on the code so unless it's a package with few users then it's gonna get caught pretty quickly.
