Just because you can use Linux doesn’t always mean you want to use Linux.

Single core workloads Intel still had the lead. But multi core (or just multi tasking) Zen 1 was a beast. By zen 2 there was hardly a reason to get Intel even for gaming, and especially at normal setups (nobody is using a top of the line GPU at 1080p). Even when you’re “just” playing a game you still have stuff running in the background, and those extra cores helped a lot.

Plus newer games are much more multi threaded than when zen first came out so those chips aged better as well.

The surveillance is mostly done on the inside of the car, not the outside. Parking sensors don’t really provide useful data for them to harvest, but that is why they cost so much to replace. If you don’t care about parking sensors you can just replace your bumper without them, the car doesn’t really care after you tell it “you didn’t ship with parking sensors”.

We use node.js with puppeteer for some of our web crawling at work. It’s pretty straightforward once you have a basic script to launch it. If you havent already I’d highly suggest installing vs code. You install node.js, then using npm (node package manager) install puppeteer and whatever other dependencies you might have. Someone out there probably has a basic js file out there that will open chrome, or just ask an LLM (I just use ChatGPT, they’re all the same shit). From there you just need to navigate to your pages, then use a queryselector and .click() to click on your elements. It’s all javascript from there.

Pro tip: write your queryselectors in your browser using the inspect element/console tab, then put it in your JS file. Nothing is worse than being 10 minutes into a crawl and you’ve got a queerselector.

You’re going to want to do a lot more reading ahead of time then. It’s not hard, but you really need to know some basics about javascript before you start.

Maybe after reading 30 pages of the manual it might make things clear. But IDK about you, but I don’t want to read through the owners manual for 10 different printers before buying one.

And a raspberry pi will do a hell of a lot better job at doing that than the printer.

Our brother printer at work is otherwise a fairly great printer. But dear god does it have the WORLDS WORST wifi connectivity. I had to put it directly under an AP at work so it wouldn’t try to connect to one on the other side of the office at 0.1Mbps and constantly dropping packets.

Sorry, this is an AppleTalk household.

Oof, in only a couple years it was worthless.

This happened with all of our work phones. It died down over time of not answering, but it still happens.

Honestly sticking with a known number is much better than trying to get something new. There’s a reason that number was available, and it’s probably because someone wanted the spam to stop.
