It's just a standard Windows 11 computer, so it is entirely trivial. They have a fullscreen console-like interface you can choose to launch, but it's completely unnecessary apart from controlling the TDP of the device. So, I just

For me, the Steam Deck was just too large, and the screen was truly terrible. It made games that I'm familiar with look visibly wrong with how poor the color gamut coverage was. I ended up selling it. The Steam Deck was also a bad ex

The person at the top of the thread claimed €45/month, but the configuration they're describing actually seems to be €37/month. If you want ECC RAM, that appears to be €60/month, and it also steps up to a more powerful 8

"Similar sizes" are not "the same size", obviously. I've never found any manufacturer that actually makes 10TB SSDs. Whether it is "unreasonable" or not is entirely irrelevant when they don't exist. T

100% correct. You might have 2 factor enabled, so they also need to check that and phish the 2FA code as well. That 2FA code expires quickly, so it needs to be used in real time to get a session. I'm sure there are some very basic phis

No, that button is enough. That button did not exist on older versions, so you definitely did not click it if it did not work. If you're running the version of macOS that was released over a year ago (Monterey) or running Ventura (rele

1Password works everywhere too, and it works much better than LastPass from everything I've heard and seen. 1Password also actually encrypts your entire vault, and it uses a strong, generated secret key in addition to your password,

If everyone knows the password, then it's really just 1FA at that point. If you want it to remain 2FA, then yes, you would need to have a new password.

"Erase All Contents and Settings" is the only button you need to push on a T2 (or later) Mac, and it is the factory reset button. It will unlock the device.
