Manjaro is a potential time bomb, delayed repos and AUR don't always interact well. EndeavourOS is the better Arch fork, especially for beginners that need a smooth introduction.

A mini PC with a USB IR receiver and whatever old remote you have to spare. It takes a bit of setup to map the remote with something like LIRC, but it works great once that's done.
The Copilot integration they recently pushed to 11 says otherwise. They're going hard on AI moving forward.

It reduces your available peers. You can't connect to other people with closed ports, one side needs to be open.
It isn't a huge deal with popular torrents, but it can cause problems with unpopular/old stuff.
It's in the testing repo right now, but I'd expect it in the main repo pretty soon. End of the week, give or take.
It's allegedly happening, but we'll see if it's any good. The Mr Robot creator is in charge of it.
I've seen SSDs hit 100TB, but those are $40k+. And more "reasonable" options like 64TB for $10k or so.
HDDs just reached 30TB, but I don't think those are widely available yet. 24TB is the biggest you can expect to see for sale.
That's probably the real reason. You can get a Uhaul for $20-30 for the day, a bus would be much higher.
Lucky so far, I think. It's been a rolling release, it probably hasn't hit your account yet.
Usenet is a lot faster than torrents, you don't need a VPN, and it's more reliable than anything but great private trackers.
It's also free in the Bitwarden app if you self-host with Vaultwarden. It's only a paid feature if you're using their hosting, and seemingly only so they can dangle it as a "premium" benefit.
