“Every person who isn’t a murderer is just a murder away from becoming a murderer. Timebomb!”
Never thought about it that way, welp, might as well get it over with.

A refurbished tiny/mini/micro PC will use more power in terms of sheer numbers, but the cost is still so small on them that it’s really not worth considering for most.
I mean, you’re in the right place then my friend, because you’re not going to subscribe to much of anything that has an international presence.
It kinda sucks when you’re in one of the ‘high price’ countries, but there’s lot of countries who wouldn’t have it at all if they had to pay our prices.
Seconding the request to share your work.
That is an amazing idea you’ve come up with that I never considered, but now I need it.
I can back this up with experience.
I’m actively running two piholes for years now. About 2/3rds of my traffic does go to the primary and some seem to ‘lock on’ to using just one, but most devices will swap between the two at their leisure.
People have tested them long term at this point. Outside of a few rare exceptions, there’s not a noticeable difference in reliability between shucked drives and ‘normal’ drives. They’re the same stock but just rebranded and have to be cheaper because they’re marketed primarily for retail as opposed to enthusiast/enterprise who are willing to pay more.
I could blame a lot of things here, but it’s just obviously been far too long since I’ve done basic math. I appreciate you fact checking me.

I feel like the primary aim is to create a minimalist art piece first and a functional device as an afterthought. If you stop thinking of it as a phone, and think of it purely as an attempt at creating a status symbol, it all kind of makes sense.
Right there with you on the UI. This would overlap in functionality with a lot of other items in my network, but I’m trying to find a reason to use it just so I can play with the UI.
Probably some kind of horrific bomb.
It looks like the big technological leap in relation to ‘How can we use superconductors to hurt things’ is to use them in making advanced EMP devices. It doesn’t seem like anyone has figured out any other obvious use cases for them that massively change or improve upon the other horrific devices that we’ve already come up with.
In regards to potential for use in war crimes, it could be a lot worse.
Just an option, there are a lot of places out there that will sell you a ‘refurbished’ phone with 1-3 year warranty. eBay even has an integrated program for it, I think they call it ‘certified refurbished’.
Super useful, it’s very similar to how magnet links for torrenting works. I know of a few less popular file sharing services that can act and search for files based on hash alone.
A lot of other areas online make use of hashes as identifiers already too. If you search for a hash of a file you’ve downloaded, just the hash and nothing else, there’s a very good chance you’ll get multiple results.
This is kind of problematic… By creating a community driven hashlist that is freely shared, you’ve also kind of created an index of CSAM content that could easily be extrapolated for people actively looking to find/share that content.
I think you may have responded to the wrong person.
The Lenovo tiny line isn’t related to Raspberry Pi/etc and I didn’t mention a Raspberry Pi. I have a server running on an M900 tiny with an i7-6700 in it and 32gb of RAM. That is the high spec config from Lenovo, but there are room for upgrades if you were willing to buy parts separately, however the value proposition starts to fall apart rapidly when buying non-standard parts and compatibility is kind of a coin flip. Even the lowest spec ones should almost always outpace a Pi though (usually by a healthy amount) while still being very small compared to a typical computer. Solid chance the tiny will also be cheaper than a Pi. Compared to laptops, they’ll usually also easily outpace those too in terms of performance in terms of money spent, but that’s obviously a lot more variable.
Very similar, but usually dramatically cheaper… Look into the Lenovo Tiny line of PCs, you can get a used model with a surprising amount of power for a lot less than you’d see in a comparable NUC and in my experience, they’re usually hardier machines.
It is a difficult problem, but there have been a lot of cracked Denuvo games, even in this article, it mentions that about half of the released Denuvo games have been cracked out of a total of 127, that’s not a small amount.
It is true though that Denuvo is complex and there’s currently only one person who has been doing them for a bit and that person is presenting as very very mentally ill and may also be on a break… it’s amazing reading, but it’s hard to tell conclusively what’s up with Empress.
Maybe not an eli5, but lots of reasons.
There’s no stable, consistently updating client that everyone agrees on, the real ‘emule’ client hasn’t been updated in over a decade. Once you get past that hurdle, the setup is also a lot more cumbersome than other file sharing options. The network also has kind of a bad reputation because there’s not a great way to see if you can trust a file until you’re finished downloading it and people definitely do take advantage of that.
