Is it running a hard drive or a SSD ? If the former I would consider upgrading to the latter.

To boot from USB you need to catch a key to press at the start of the booting up of the PC, if it's displayed (press X to...). Often it's DEL, or an F key. Or you can google your brand of PC to find out which key. There can be 2 options, one for BIOS one for booting sequence, in that case take that one and put the USB in first (have the USB drive plugged in before booting).

Further to what aesma said, I'd consider moving to 10. Should be available from the same supplier as your win7 install *ahem*.

What's chromebook? does it work like any other laptop?

Yes, I'm browsing laptops now.

Remember Linux Netbooks? Basically that but by Google and a bit more restricted. I wouldn't have one as any kind of primary device but it's fine for browsing WO while ignoring whatever junk is playing on the TV.

Pretty sure you can still update to win 10 for free

I will never use win 10 unless I have too
It's a rape of your privacy, and it has forced downloads.
I use win 7 because of those reasons, and I always turn of updates.

[Arriemoller]

This laptop that won't start has win 10, that should tell you something.

I dove deep into the closet and actually found another newer router with working wifi, but of course I can't find the password, well at least now my internet is a little bit faster.

Ah, going to McD to get something to eat, catch you later.

Just know that you can turn all that off with various 3rd party solutions. I know what you mean though.

I've had zero issues with win 10 myself, but I do have a pretty thorough knowledge of computers and windows system in general. Computers, like a car, do require constant maintenance and if you are going to manage one yourself, without a mechanic, you need the knowledge. Otherwise take you computer to the computer mechanic and he'll fix it for you. If it's old though just buy a new one, wipe the old one and sell it on ebay.

And that's the problem isn't it, the computer industry have fooled people into believing that that's normal.
A computer should need no more maintenance than a stereo. I have a receiver I have had sitting idle on a shelf for more then ten years, if I plug it in today it will work just fine, but a three year old computer refuses to work, and that's "normal".
Fuck the computer industry.

Update on the Binance card

I just got cashback from my ATM withdrawals, so apparently it doesn't register as an ATM withdrawal but rather a purchase.
That's nice to know.

First of all already one year has past away in reaching the next halving.... second people really losing there mind fast.... first question do you really need the FIAT and if you really needed it, then 50-60k was a long period and nice price to take a little to cover stuff....

But to many negativity from experienced hodlers imho

They need a shift kick in the fucking ass.

Lack of testicles  or to quote a Staten Islander they have "Tick balls"

Don't think any of us have actually sold though, in fact I've been buying (everytime I get paid), because that's what you do in dips. LFC bought all his back too I think.

What about the Range Rover?


 

So bought back same amount of corn and a range as surplus

Sweet, not? Boss style imo

I am surely not saying anything regarding whether the RangeRover is a good or bad thing.  That is an individual choice.

I was just questioning the absoluteness of somac's statement regarding "LFC buying all of his back."

You can. That's how my VR rig was done (I wanted to try VR Minecraft) but there are a few things that have never been quite right about it. It sounds like maybe he needs a fresh install so may as well jump straight to 10.

Edit: Just saw his following message about not wanting to use 10 which I totally respect.

I believe some of these slicers have Linux versions so that might be the way to go.

My Chromebook can run Linux apps but that comes with its own issues. It stopped running the Linux apps and apparently the fix is to disable and re-enable the Linux layer but that deletes all your Linux apps and data. Fortunately, I hadn't actually used it for anything yet but it's not confidence inspiring.

Too good to eat Ramen with the rest of us?

I have Slackware Linux on a PC. I installed it about 8 years ago and other than a couple of security updates for a handful of applications, it's been running fine 24/7. That's the way it's supposed to be. I've been thinking about upgrading it since a new version of Slackware came out recently but no rush.

Now, that's a bug they're going to be fixing quickly...

What's chromebook? does it work like any other laptop?

Yes, I'm browsing laptops now.

Stay away from chrome books. Limited software availability and serious compatibility issues with video conference software. Turned our kids’ Chromebooks essentially to bricks when Covid broke out, because videoconferencing turned out a big Nono on Chromebooks with zero support from Google.

Take it from this Uber pc need: not a penny to Google Chrome books anymore because of this. You’d be better off buying a cheap brick.
