You can go through the activation troubleshooter and say you replaced the motherboard, I did this with my brother's computer and used a licence from a 5 year old netbook on a modern desktop. It might've needed a Microsoft account though.

Will I see any performance increase?

Like others have said LLMs mostly use VRAM, they can use system RAM if you're running them on CPU, but that's ridiculously slow.

It will however increase the speed of your compile times, which is especially useful if you're compiling something large like the Linux kernel on a regular basis.

I'm also worried about not having ECC RAM.

If you are using it purely for LLMs, if it's going to get bit flips, it'll happen in VRAM.

If you are compiling large things for customers, I'd recommend ECC, just in case, e.g. you don't want a bricking firmware from a bit flip. But according to EDAC and my TIG stack, my server's ECC RAM has never even detected an error in the past year, if I understand EDAC properly, so it's really not important.

I jailbroke my 4th gen iPod a few months after Apple dropped support for it, I feel like that breathed a lot more life into it.

AFAIK fast startup only affects shutdown, clicking restart will always do a full reboot. Shift clicking shutdown will do a full shutdown like you said, but shift clicking restart will start recovery mode.

My understanding after reading the article is: while roaming your phone sets up a VPN type thing with your phone provider, and routes calls and data through this tunnel, so now Europol has to deal with another country if they want to track you.

Not sure if it affects that, but you can disable Alcohol ads on the Google Ad center.

You might be able to flash the retail BIOS to remove the OEM stuff, but often if it's running a specific OEM BIOS it'll block you from flashing a retail version.

If the HOA's router supports UPnP/NAT-PMP/PCP then you might be able to use that to get some ports forwarded.

Haha yeah, I sell these at work and recognised it immediately! It's literally just the inner part you solder the wires onto, without the outer casing.

I tried to find a photo, but I struggled:

I believe I've actually had this happen with actual VLC, I think I just hit pause and then play and it was fixed. So maybe pause it for half a second after your seek.

I believe the main contributor for drm_panic wants to add one eventually. Here's what it might look like:

Also it looks like the colours are configurable at compile time (with white on black default).

That's not really your code, more so you haven't setup a .gitignore to not commit not your code.
