Guys, find a Linux variant you can trust and use as you learn it and run a Win 7 instance in a vm with GPU passthrough for games. Then you can step up to something like Qubes and the Win 7 VM is portable.

Nix runs on arm. Check this https://postmarketos.org/

Added: forgot to say only use the passthrough on a secondary gpu if your concerned about the security of the vm to the host.

Sense of guilt disclosure. I have to confess I do have to use Win10 for some things because reasons, but I'm very sensitive to this topic. A true FOSS OS for mobile is long overdue, but the real issue there is closed source drivers for hardware components. In general, the producers won't release OS drivers or disclose all the specs that would enable OS driver development, so you're left with a phone where the camera works but (insert glitch), WiFi works but (insert different glitch), and so on.

With all the biometrical shit that's going to fall upon our heads, a mobile OS that teams with the owner is going to become a necessity sooner than I'd like. In other parts of the world, it already is.

Solution: switch to linux

I haven't worked on a a Mac since the mid 90's but afaik Macs are now on a Linux kernel so there should be a workaround

It's a Unix of some sort, but it's not linux.

Kinda.
<wiseass mode on>
It's a BSD port, the kernel is "XNU" (hence the marketing name OS X), mainly based on BSD and some journaling file system i don't recall by name atm.
Apple came up with this as a solution for the switch from motorola to intel cpu's, to keep the older hardware supported (until OSX 10.4) as well as emulate a runtime environment for their (old) native binary format. Can't recall its name as well, similar to "union" or something like that. They offered an emulator for this until 10.7 or .8  but as an optional install. Look up "Mach" and "Darwin" for more info on the net.
The Unix part was degraded from release to release, which is basically only the shell (terminal running BASH) and IOS (not iOS) nowadays, while apple was following most every unix standard, which was quite comfortable if you came from a unix background (as me) and got your hands on MacOS X. The last version i used was 10.8 or .9 and i was already missing a lot of unix support in it. However, it was quote comfortable (and dangerous) to open a terminal window, type "sudo su -" and hit enter to gain root on OSX, until "sudo" functionality was replaced, i think also in 10.9.
<wiseass mode off>

I really liked OSX, the stability, ease of use and all, as well as the unix powerhorse below the hood. They incrementally fucked that up, but when you come from  DOS/Unix background, this was the perfect desktop OS.

So one would guess Free BSD tools would work as they were back ported yes?

It's not even 1% of the economic value.

As economic value they took coinmarketcap. Comparing coins coimarketcap with revenue of a market is totally pointless. It dont give you any useful data.

$7k holding is absolutely critical. If it breaks, prepare for maximum rectal and testicular discomfort.

Hey, Earl!!!
I'm currently re-watching Season 2, it's about the 10th iteration now and i still lmfao.
So sad that they didn't continue after S04. I am still hoping.

If you get them to compile, which is quite a mess.
Most of the GNU stuff is available as backport, however. You can try other source packages, but i can tell you that i didn't have much luck with that.

It's a Unix of some sort, but it's not linux.

OSX is derived from FreeBSD, it has no roots in Linux at all.
Though cups and few other goodies are contributed by Apple for all BSDs and Linux.

Yeah, I don't bother with apple so my memory is scetchy at the best of times and I'm not surprised I though it was linux when it was unix.

But my point that the kernel is BSD accessible so the tools exist.

I wouldn't waste one second of my time supporting an Apple product.

Well I guess I did by pointing out where to find the tools.

When Win7 becomes unusable

time to get after it Jimbo

The Lightning Network will soon be able to support larger Bitcoin payments.

Blockstream announced today that it is closer to solving one of the biggest problems facing the Lightning Network, Bitcoin’s scaling solution. A better way of sending large payments across the network is coming soon.

Atomic Multi-Path Payments (AMP) over Lightning were first proposed by Lightning Labs co-founder Conner Fromknecht and its Head of Engineering, Olaoluwa Osuntokun, in 2018.

But it wasn’t until May this year that a new routing proposal was merged into the Lightning spec, providing a fix to Bitcoin’s long-standing payment problems, including AMP.

Sending payments over the AMP protocol would improve the privacy of Lighting Network intermediaries and provide fee savings, as well as other benefits.

How about the KVM switch and the second PC? Have i missed your reply?
You could just switch over to the win10 box, have internet and all on it, while transferring files via ethernet to the win7 box.
Another way would be running the win7 box headless using a remote desktop client on the win10 to even spare the KVM switch.

I don't think it can get more painless than this. How's it doing currently?

EDIT: Dude, do i miss my old job. FML 
But then, what am i missing other than food for my restless mind and the additional dollars?
Could be worse, actually...

Space is tight in that part of the shop, I already have to move things around for different operations, really don't want a second box out there.

I fear this is my solution for the time being...till I learn more and build up a whole new drive system

As an added side benefit, I think this will allow me to run 64 bit out there, Mach3's parallel port driver has never worked on 64 bit anything...

Its funny as I have not applied a m$ "Security patch" since SP1 was released (only added sp1 as its a dependency to later libraries) and run so few services that none of them have ever been effected with redmonds backdoors. i even had SMB disabled from day one except for when i had to use it and then only enabled it during that period. decades of watching M$ open backdoors disguised as bugs has taught me how to harden a winblows system to quite a degree. I finally was forced to win 7 for directx 11 (10.1 was hackable into xp) but there is no way I'll allow them to force 10 anywhere near me. Its better just to build an independent gaming system and use a switch box and isolate the network while using it.

Grab a copy of process hacker and rip 3/4 of all that shit out, and don't be surprised when you install a M$ update that it re-enables all those unrelated backdoors you had just closed.

And don't forget to disable all those telnet remote drivers M$ hides from you.

coinmarketcap? You're talking about market cap I guess. No, I don't think so, if you look at 2012 for example, the market cap was between 50M and 100M$, so 57M$ can't represent 6% of that value.

Looks good (other than the price, but hey...)

[JayJuanGee]

There is a strong resistance at 6.4k, but a one closer around 7k, look like this one holds and I am not sure anymore we head to 6.5k... the move is really slow right now and 7.1k is probably a decent price to buy.
Decided to buy 0.31 BTC today with a target around 8k for mid January max. There is another rally expected because the charts and the RSI look really similar to Mach-April 2018!

Best of luck!  

Your post comes off as a bit more ambiguous than it needs to be because you seem to be misusing the term "resistance" when you really mean "support."

When we are talking difficulty in going down, we are referring to support.  When we are referring to difficulty in going up, we are referring to resistance.

Hopefully you can clarify what you mean here, but it seems to me that you just used the wrong word (i.e. resistance when you meant to describe the concept of support).
