Spoiler alert to those of you who don't know... The guy hanging up the pay phone is about to shoot the guy in the red shirt in the head. The red shirt guy just got convicted of molesting, and I think killing the other guy's young son. He was being escorted out of the court room by several police officers when he got his real sentence. Shooter was later found not guilty by the best jury ever.

Nvidia has dropped even calling themselves a gaming company anymore. I think revenue from gaming cards is down to single digits of revenue for them. CUDA and their AI/high end graphics cards sold to bizness is what is making them money hand over fist.
AMD has finally reached semi parity with Nvidia only to find itself chasing after the business market as well. But, if you use Linux, AMD is probably the front runner as some Steam guys are releasing driver updates for AMD cards dating back before 2010.

That is probably some of it as well but Linux is having its own issues. AI is very good at poking holes--fortunately so far Linux vulnerabilites and really most of Windoze require machine access or agreeing to some really stupid opening trojan files, etc. The bigger problem for Microsoft is that developer Git credentials (probably scraped from AI work sessions) have been used to spike nastyware on that code sharing hub on key programming libraries.

I saw that in Pixy's thread this morning. Since they're doing all the work to have updates until 2028 for enterprise clients, it doesn't seem like it would cost much (relatively) to make that available to all of us sticking with 10, aside from losing leverage on getting us to join the Win 11 AI farm, which doesn't much matter at current prices. So I expect they'll do the same thing next year, and after that, I guess we'll see what memory prices do.
Maybe Win 12 will be around by then and less full of AI slop, and thus a more appealing product, too.

Buy a late model used one is my recommendation. All modern systems use ssd drives for storage and the prices on those have rocketed up along with RAM. That goes for desktops.
If you get a laptop, you may get a better deal because the memory nowadays is usually soldered onto the motherboard so makes it harder for a seller to pull the extra memory and sell it off the books.
If you aren't gaming, not as critical but the skyrocketing memory costs are hurting new computer sales and builds.

They are like this on our farm road from my mother's house to the lake. Carpets of fireflies in the trees as far as you can see in the woods as we drive by. They love them.
You can also see awesome stars and the Milky Way as no light pollution.
Grands also love driving, sitting in their father's lap, on this road or my mother's driveway. Granddaughter for some reason drives better in reverse. Grandson likes to pretend to drive my brother's tractor with a front end loader shovel thing (you can tell I don't know the name of it).
Grandson likes to fish. The older girlie, 5yrs, likes to talk to the fish caught, but doesn't want to hurt them.

If you see a demand for a password before you see the swirling circle, then it is probably a bios password. If you have internet access, you will have to use the name and brand to figure out how to get around it. One way is by using a live cd of Linux that runs off the DVD drive or a live usb. But both of those depend on the boot sequence allowing boot by DVD and/or USB stick before going to the main ssd or rust based hard drive.

Decades ago, on a family trip, we drove up the east side of the Mississippi, and it was very late and the driver, me, was very weary. We found a park where we could pull out and stop for the night. I turned off the headlights, and I thought, I must be wearier than I realized, because there were flashes all over my field of vision.
It was one of the most spectacular scenes I've ever encountered. Gazillions upon gazillions of fireflies. So many that they seemed to be flashing in unison, in coordinated patterns - and for the first time, I realized why they were called lightning bugs. It looked like strings of electricity dancing all around the field.
The creators really outdid themselves on that bug.

I have a fair number of apps and OS just like desktops are getting more memory hungry with new iterations. Old phone speaker was dying and cost to repair more than phone.
Modern Android 15 or 16 runs a lot better on 8 gb.
Same with Iphones as their OS increases burden on memory and cpu.

You have to be careful on scanners, even good ones often don't get driver updates when Windows moves up a notch but I had an issue with Windows 10 and an old Canon all in one printer. Finally found a Windows 8.1 driver on Canon's India support website and installed it to get it to work. I have a Windows 10 machine that is largely offline just for scanning documents (don't ask--medico legal issues) and photos. I'll keep it running just for that.
On old scanners and printers, I find Linux actually has better support outside of HP which sucks. Brother and Epson do pretty well on their drivers.

Good. Those can be a bitch as you risk bricking the bios by reverting it. So, dunno if you are familiar with linux but you can download a live version to put on a dvd or on a usb. Shutdown the computer, then try to restart it with the live usb or the burned dvd on it. Ubuntu, Mint, or Debian are good bets. From there, with the right programs installed, you can actually edit the windows password file to reflect what you want. All free.
Hopefully, the boot order in the bios goes from usb/dvd first and then to the ssd/hard drive (which you can change the order if the bios has no password).
You may have to look on the internet for how to get into the bios--usually a two key combination right at power up. Sometimes it will be very briefly flashed on the screen before boot up.

It appears you have to use WINE or Cross Over which is the paid version (WINE is Code Weaver's development for their paid program Cross Over). If you have a cheap old computer, try WINE on it and try to install the program.
And it appears, digging around, that Uniden offers the U/Aware app for iOS/Android, which provides Bluetooth connectivity for scanning and monitoring without a PC.

I think Panda Antivirus runs updates and will run even on Windows XP SP3 as well as newer systems.
Supermium is a safe browser for old windows machines that is updated and patched for security if you must get online with the old machine. Legacy Update has all the old microsoft patches for long ago Windows systems going back to XP3 (and yes, it has service packs for them). The thing to be careful of is third parties offering drivers for old software as some of them aren't kosher. Dig around on international sites as you can sometimes find old drivers on printers, etc. abroad in places like India or Thailand (use English for most of its support websites for companies like Canon, etc.).

In the beginning, before promotion, dad went through a series of old Chevy p/u's. We would work on them every weekend for the truck to make it through the next week. - Anyway -
He bought one truck the owner said was shot. It just wouldn't run right. Dad drove it home and loosened all the tappets then readjusted them. The owner had tightened them down till they didn't clatter. Solid lifters on those old trucks; cut them some slack.

Back in the day, the drill on small-block Chevy's with hydraulic lifters was (on an idling engine) to back them off until they began to click, then tighten until the click just stopped, then tighten 5/8 of a turn further, to set the plunger in the lifter to the middle of its travel.

I have four browsers on my machine, part of it was because I use Linux at home, I could never be sure what the users on our university's courseware might see. I usually used hyperlinked syllabi to open sources on the net for a text rather than making the poor sods pay for an expensive soon to be outdated text.
Microsoft pissed me off during the 2000's, I always kept one system with Office installed (work license current) and an older paid complete version just for compatibility issues. Used Dragon Dictate for years as arthritis and loss of hand dexterity progressed until Microslop bought it and ruined that company too. Taken until now for Linux to catch up with voice dictation using Whispr.

Well you had a more fun day than I had. I got to work on a bike that was in a flood that was over the handlebars. This was hurricane Sandy from 15 years ago. The kid puts 2k into the bike in cosmetics, and then tells me about the flood. I said to the kid, are you insane? The salt water destroyed everything inside. He says no they drained the water, and then it sat for 15 years. I said oh that changes everything...are you fucking INSANE??? He says its jumping out of gear. I said no shit, its destroyed inside. He didn't listen, his rose colored glasses were the size of a Jumbotron . I took it apart, all the aluminum parts of the detent system were rotted away, the shafts were gone, the bearings were gone, the oil came out like mud. He's gonna shit when we call him. And...nobody is talking about the engine. He spent 2K putting lipstick on a pig with NOOO clue what the engine and trans looked like inside.

Probably what the owner did, not understanding he was working on solid lifters. What we did; on running engine, loosen all until they are clicking, then, in firing order tighten until silent and back off until it clicks. Dads rule.

Didn't have a fuel pump or an oil pump either.
