You could use it for Windows 98/XP retro gaming if you add a graphics gard, but for anything else it's far too inefficient to be useful

If the controller port is connected to the same +5V rail as the CPU, wouldn't the NES crash if it only got 4.6V or less?

If only the BlueRetro is affected, maybe something behaves like a resistor in series with it, for example a broken solder joint in the adapter or at the connector on the NES

That's exactly why I asked for reputable sources - if an ancap think tank and an online "museum" are enough for you, I'm going to risk breaking Beehaw's rule on civility and call you a useful idiot at best - but considering nobody in this thread has agreed with you so far, your usefulness is not proven.

If your comment isn't disinformation, then surely you are able to provide reputable sources on what makes the Ukrainian government illegitimate and when it has kidnapped its own civilians and forced them to fight.

Otherwise, your baseless claims do not deserve further consideration - what has been stated without evidence can be dismissed without arguments.

Is tone policing more important than removing disinformation?

I think early CD-ROM drives with proprietary interfaces were basically never bootable unless there were controller cards with option ROMs and I've never seen one.

These drives were from the early 90s, so that wouldn't have been the reason why Windows 2000 could use a boot floppy - maybe some computers had SCSI drives connected to controllers that only supported booting from hard drives

Ich meine, ich hätte mal gelesen, dass das in den USA teilweise eine Methode ist, um Regelungen zu politischen Spenden zu umgehen - es ist erst mal nicht verboten, wenn eine Firma palettenweise Bücher kauft

Older OSes did that, but modern ones usually just do the equivalent of format /q in DOS (write new filesystem metadata only, don't check for bad sectors)
