I need to transfer a CPU to a different motherboard, is this a dangerous exercise?

...

Gawd, by today's standards this kind of looks like an AI image. The only saving grace is I know it comes from the Windows 7 era...

That's why. It's 2026. Most IPv4 addrs are owned by big cloud or residential ISPs full of botnetted customers because people still execute arbitrary nonfree shitware like tards. IPv6 is basically unblockable since you can't predict what prefix the user has: 48, 56 or 64 and you'll probably take more out in collateral damage.

total miyuki marriage

but as to your question
>perhaps i am stretching the definition a bit, but ARM is RISC in nature, no?
ARM literally stands for Advanced Risc Machine and if you ever programmed in some form of arm assembly it's much closer to Risc V than some x86 code, really fun stuff, definetely risc but I wouldn't really call a locked down macOS environment Unix
>i thought ARM macs let you boot non-Apple operating systems, it's just that the driver support is basically nonexistent. i may be wrong though
you can but their boot is weird
unfortunately for everyone ever born, just targetting the ISA some computer chip implements during compilation isn't enough to have software running properly on it, since you still have to fuck around with their funky boot sequence and device trees and whatnot and reverse engineer everything
modern macs dont even use uefi anymore
apart from that you can use computers rocking qualcomm chips, i think there's even a snapdragon thinkpad that came out

>This release of FreeTube represents an incredible amount of hard work and persistence from the project and its contributors. It brings major improvements across playback, performance, and platform support, with the most significant changes detailed in the FreeTube, YouTube, and Electron sections below.

>FreeTube
>Implemented SABR playback support via the local API, restoring audio track selection in the player. Watch pages now load faster, but may show timers for pre-roll ads and SABR backoff. The displayed timer values are provided by YouTube and we have no control over them. If playback fails, it will automatically retry or reload. For more details on SABR, see #7119 https://github.com/FreeTubeApp/FreeTube/issues/7119#issuecomment-2837840256
>Updated the player to a newer version of Shaka Player with a modernization of the UI. The interface is now cleaner and closely aligned with YouTube’s look and feel.

>YouTube
>YouTube has removed its Trending page, but FreeTube’s Trending page remains available by sourcing data from the trending sections of the Gaming, Sports, and Podcasts channels.
YouTube has updated its search filters, and FreeTube has been updated to match these changes.

I was gonna recommend something similar.
If Linux can be downsized to fit on a floppy disk, then it should be possible cut down the excess fat from Windows too and make it lean and snappy again. Hell, we had full blown 3D desktops with compiz nearly 20 years ago, running on RaspberryPi-tier hardware.

I think it should cost at least $1000. Also, stop preinstalling it on laptops.

there have been source code leaks consisting of

winamp
GTA5
minecraft
Salesforce CRM
Team Fortress 2 and CS:GO
Frostbite engine and FIFA 21
Ubisoft games
Pokemon games
Windows XP (SP1), Windows Server 2003, MS-DOS, and Windows CE

so why not use AI tools like Claude and rewrite them into some other languages and make them open source

Is it a controversial opinion on /g/ to say that I preferred when TVs didn't have their own OS frontend?
I'm not saying linear TV didn't have it's problems but at least it always felt like it did what I wanted, not what it thought I wanted.
The golden middle-ground was when you connected a streaming stick to a HDMI port on your dumb-TV.

These days I only use my TV for my PS5. If I push a button on the PS5 controller, it brings the console out of sleep, powers on the TV, and switches the TV input to the PS5 input. When I am done playing I can put the PS5 in sleep mode, the TV will sit on no-input for a couple minutes and then automatically turn off as well.

I actually never have to even touch the TV remote except for the initial setup to change the picture settings.

>>108513939
I used to play Arknights on my TV hooked up to a laptop running an Android emulator, it was actually quite fun that way. Most mobile games don't even look bad on big TVs because mobile screens are basically all the same resolution as TV screens anyway, so other than the controls they're basically designing for the same spec.

My LG C1s (55&65 inches), CX and Sony A90J are ALL rooted and debloated. I can ssh and telnet into all the LGs and have removed all bloat and restricted all telemetry.

Rather I use one of my 3 Ugoos AM6B+ boxes and host my own jellyfin server. Connecting a TV to the internet is indeed cancer. AVOID!!!!

Audeze Maxwell Xbox edition come with an included Atmos license and are vast superior in sound if you want to use them with your pc or console. Much more precise and hi res.
For mobile, many smartphones come with dolby Atmos already enabled.

But anyway Atmos is a gimmick in these devices. The 60usd xbox headset supports it and it sounds mediocre at best.

Don't buy anything other than IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad T, X, and W/P Series if you want the Real Business Experience™
Other business laptops are welcome in /tpg/ (Dell Latitude/Precision, HP EliteBook/ZBook)

Why ThinkPad?
>Used machines are plentiful and cheap
>Utilitarian design: e.g. mix of old and new ports, stable keyboard layout
>Easy to repair, upgrade (some models) & maintain thanks to readily available service manuals, spare parts easy to obtain
>Usable in cramped quarters thanks to the TrackPoint
>Excellent Linux & *BSD support
