Secure Boot is not required for Windows 11 and, depending on your install media, you may have to disable it in the BIOS to perform a bare metal OS install. The OS runs without problems and doesn't complain about anything if you have Secure Boot disabled, though.

You do have to have TPM 2.0 or later enabled for Windows 11 to run, and there may even be a registry hack to bypass that requirement. I'm not sure, I have both TPM and Secure Boot enabled.

Not really, but it was an awesome game!

There's also the "V/H/S" series of movies, there's 7 of those plus 2 spin-off movies.

Not a NAS, but I use a self-built computer with Windows 11 Pro, AMD Ryzen 5 3400G CPU, 64GB RAM, Dell PERC H710P hardware RAID controller, 8 x 6TB Hitachi Enterprise class SATA hard drives. I have the hard drives configured in a hardware RAID6 with no hot spare (I have 1 cold spare) for a total of around 32.7TB of storage space and I boot off of an NVMe drive. I've got the server built in a Fractal Design Define case, the case is sound insulated with 140mm fan mounts (the server is very quiet) and has 8 hard drive mounts, no hot swap backplane so I will have to shut down the server if I ever need to replace a hard drive. I picked up the drives and RAID card used and cheap from Amazon and eBay, the RAID card was around $75 with a good backup battery onboard. I use it as a file server, media server, DLNA server, etc., and used it to encode a lot of my Blu-ray discs when I first set up the server. I've got Hyper-V installed and have actively used it for some work-related virtualization. It's a really nice "server" with 100% uptime, and having a familiar desktop interface with the ability to run whatever software I feel like running is awesome.

Asking for someone who isn't affected by this.

They've been power managing hard drives over USB for decades, there is no reason to think that they can't still do that with the USB interface integrated directly onto the drive's PCB.

These drives probably have the USB interface soldered directly onto the PC board instead of using a USB-to-SATA adapter plugged onto the drive internally. These aren't normal 2.5" hard drives with SATA power and data connectors. You might be able to remove the drive from it's enclosure and mount it inside a computer, but you will still have to connect it to the computer with a USB cable and not a SATA cable. Western Digital Black external drives (and most likely the other WD product lines) have been this way for a while.

Agreed, if you see lots of movies at the theater then AMC Stubs A-List is the best thing going.

I sure do wish that they were offering a 7" - 8" version of this tablet. 10 years later and no Android tablet has done a good job of replacing the Nexus 7 2013.

It certainly can't compare to your McDonald's certification for deep fryer operation.

There was some earlier story about buttons in shoes wired to a Raspberry PI hidden in your underpants as a chess cheating device. Here's a link to such a device... https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fboingboing.net%2F2022%2F09...

AMC has been doing this for a while with a few of their movies in my hometown of Huntsville, AL. "Dune" has a 6:10pm showing today with "Open Subtitles".

AMC also shows non-English language movies with subtiles, they played "Titane" here with subtitles for over a week.

Definitely fixed, I have 1 file in that folder. It's tiny and has yesterday's date.

It's 16GB RAM (memory), you are thinking about primary storage and the article states that these iPads can have up to 2TB.

Why don't you email them and find out? You have enough energy to post on slashdot but are too lazy to send an email?
