I've got an Acer Aspire from 2008 running mint on an Intel Atom and 1 GB memory (might be 2, I forget). It is slow but very usable except for video and such.

Do you have the original disc? As I recall Wine runs it just fine.

This is sort of the plot of Children of Time

Yeah its pretty bad. I have two dell latitudes, one from about 2015 and one newish one. Opensuse on the old one, Win11 on the new one, guess which one isn't all laggy

Not exactly daily but the shovel I use to clean out my grill ashes was my grandfather's, hand forged and used for branding iron fires, gotta be 100 years old. Then a phonograph from 1960.

I have zero problems with this on Lineage. ?? No spoofing either, just Lineage.

There are probably some of us still sitting on free ESXi hosts, but as I've gotten off mine to Proxmox ive been pretty pleased so far. Leave ESXi, it was a great way to learn but Proxmox is more better.

Here is the one big trick I learned: if using the native import tool, shutdown the source VM and delete all the snapshots! Each snapshot adds an exponential slowdown due to the crappy API. If importing windows, remove the VMWare Guest Tools first. That seems to make the import process work pretty well. Linux and FreeBSD don't seem to care but Windows sure does.

Its still the same as it ever was, just less traffic and they charge five bucks to list vehicles now. I still use it but responses are a lot slower.

Live cam from the Lady Bird Johnson wildflower center of Athena the great horned owl and her two owlets. They're gonna fledge soon, watch while ya can

 

Not finding a lot of info on using Proxmox import wizard to extract VMs from an ESXi free license host. I can add the host as storage and see the VMs but it looks like it's failing afterwards due to possibly some kind of rate limit error? But I know the free version API is either closed or not available. Any ideas? Thanks!
