Oh that’s awesome.

I use the new PE version since it’s still maintained and has had something to fix any of my problems so far.

Hiren’s boot CD

It’s a small ISO with tons of utilities on it. It’s great for recovering data if shit goes really south. I always have one handy.

Edit: toss it onto your ventoy stick

Same - I’m very curious as to what it is and how it’s used.

I hate the jargon used in some of these app descriptions.

example: “Enhance workflow with integrated collaboration and intelligent software agents to automate your processes.”

WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU DO

I wish opinions in titles would just fuck off. “This is a thing and it’s awesome”

CPU and RAM are consistently >90%. It’s mostly qbittorrent doing that by caching files I’m seeding.

Game servers are mostly stable but Plex struggles if it’s transcoding (necessary due to video file types and who I’m streaming to).

Thanks, I’ll keep that in mind.

The problem isn’t so much that there are ads. The problem is also what kind of ads they’re playing. YouTube has been known to play inappropriate ads without vetting them - think of those awful mobile game ads with a heavy sexual tone.

This stuff also seems to explicitly target videos that kids might watch.
