The steps look good. It’s running Alpine. I wonder how long this takes start to helloworld.

i have just revived a system from 2013 with linux, if i turn off secure boot does this matter?

Ii had stability issues related to Wi-Fi on Ubuntu, which i could not explain, while debian was fine. Something funny in the Ubuntu releases for me.

i just installed bazzite on an A6-6400k system and it works really well. i first installed Fedora, but an amount was missing to get my 1030 running for media decoding. Yeah this system should be sent to the grave, but it’s working and doing what i need.

I also run this on my daily laptop and works very nice.

maybe get a premium refurbished pixel 7/8 from back market. i have a 7 currently and it’s fine. Battery could be better but everything else works.

im not even sure how we can get replacement parts, which (aside from price) is keeping me away.

tailscale worked some times, but seemed to depend on the location of the moon relative to the air speed of a nearby sparrow and it was really slow.

time for me to find an alternative

Is there harm if you continue to use your existing nas just for storage?

Im on flauncher, works for my needs
