I’ve generally had good luck with hardware and things just worked under linux. But one day I upgraded a few machines on my network to 2.5G ethernet. Several already had the ports, but my little NUC NAS box didn’t, so I installed a 2.5G usb ethernet dongle. No matter what I did, I couldn’t get it to work. It would show up and NM would act like it was up and there were no errors or anything, but it just wouldn’t actually function.
Eventually, I found out that it has a built in USB data partition that contains the drivers for windows. The card was coming up as a usb disk first when the hardware was assigned and not a network card which it should have been.
I had to write a blacklist the usb modules first, which I had done before, but I had to also write a udev rule to automatically add the network card and driver on boot. It wasn’t that difficult to actually do, but I had just never had to do anything with udev rules before. Took me a good three days of troubleshooting to finally get everything to work correctly on boot.

Not really. It’ll be fine. An amp that puts out 25W per speak will blow those speakers if you turn it up to max volume on a good reciever.
yeah, just about anything these days will work… This was literally the cheapest HDMI reciever on ebay. Hell, you can probably go to Goodwill and find one.

The sound of the “Click of Death” still haunts me.
We had Jazz drives too, which just failed and caused you to lose a larger amount of data than a zip.
Refusing tendered payment immediately discharges debt…
I sent you 80 lbs of coconuts, if you can’t accept that then I don’t owe anything.

At some point, the people of Afghanistan should be able to take control of their own country. How can a vast majority of the people sit there and let a tiny percentage dictate the lives and rules for everyone? Kick the Taliban out of your country.
I grew up in Georgia, and when I was in elementary school, my mom had a friend with a couple older boys who lived in California. Every year, when they would grow out of their clothes, I would get a giant box of the coolest California clothes like Op and Quicksilver. I used to think I was so cool in school.
