Woah that’s my dream house

Well that’s good, BIOS issues are PITA. If you’re still having issues:

Sounds like some hidden windows magic, I’d format the drive from a linux live usb then install windows on the blank drive after a reboot

Maybe disconnect the power and CMOS battery for awhile too incase there’s something lurking in some onboard memory somewhere.

There’s always linux, which is personally what I’d recommend for a server (less overhead from graphical clients etc) if you have the patience to pick it up, but hopefully the above solves your problem

I think this would be more effective on the fediverse too, bots are trying to engage as wide an audience as possible, which gives us a metric to monitor activity across the fediverse.

For example, a user might post an article to the news community on their preferred instances whereas a bot will unbiasedly post it on all instances it deems fit to share with.

This isn’t perfect but it’s another metric to help weight and quantify bot activity for an automated defense system. RSS feeds and the like can specifically flag their accounts as automated to avoid misbans from the system too

Lenovo think centre pcs are great home servers, I personally run debian on mine and have zero issues with it

Two things I can think of, it’s either some remnant program from the original drive in which case just toss it or re-use it elsewhere and put your HDDs in, you don’t know what the state of the OG HDD is anyway and for read/write heavy programs like plex or storage it’s probably at a higher chance of failure

It has some kind of BIOS lock, you said you can get into the BIOS but have you tried to change anything? It might prompt you for a password In which case you might be able to reset the BIOS or will have to contact lenovo to sort it out if possible.

The worst BIOS password bypass Ive done is to actually fry the chip storing the password, there is so many things wrong with doing this but it MAY be possible as a last resort so please exhaust all other options before attempting this

Let’s all engage in some jolly gender-affirming cooperation!

They’re useless because the capital powers that be actively try to misinform the public on preferential voting (As part of a larger attack on education to keep a complicit population)

If I had a dollar every time I heard someone tell me I’m throwing away my vote for preferencing a minor party that has no hope of winning I’d probably have enough money to bribe a politician into making some decent fucking policy

I get it gals, I wouldn’t want to be around this either. Oof.

It’s well beyond that, we’re in a mass extinction event. They should be tried for crimes against humanity, these companies have known the affects of climate change for decades and have been complicit in it.

Pfft we got rid of that yonks ago, now you just have to have an AI rewrite your documentation as a million shitty tutorials that are all search-engine optimised on different websites and hope the user finds one semi-legible.

It’s a piece of piss, literally.

Watched my brother complete all MGS games under the hardest difficulty.

I think MGS4 was the hardest for him, under 5 hours, no continues, no health items, no kills or alerts on boss extreme difficulty.

He was a very angry teenager.

Good point

Smuggling is easier than you think, being stupid is a requirement for law enforcement. Especially in the USA

Just observe the system, go through a couple of times, you’ll see the cracks and should be able to figure it out from there, especially if it’s just to circumvent tariffs and not import illegal goods.

Ask yourself, is it worth the legal system to pursue this matter if it’s relatively minor?

Chances are you’ll just get a slap on the wrist, but there is ALWAYS risk when it comes to this stuff, so also ask yourself is it worth doing it in the first place?

Happy smuggling and remember borders are imaginary! :)

Im surprised the stupid fucks can still operate a computer/phone let a lone running an instance.

Sweet as, I’ll buy a dedicated box and spin up a few instances

For anyone curious to do the same thing, lenovo thinkcentre mini pcs are cheap as chips second hand and make good little homelabs

I mean yeah it’s one-shot land but I’d feel more comfortable in the Australian bush than in other territories, a lot of these creatures can be avoided with a little bit of knowledge and caution, but there’s no large predators

Most large creatures here can beat the shit out of you but they wouldn’t unless you threatened them.
