Looking up the specs of a D270, looks like the memory is upgradable.
It also looks like the Intel Atom N2600 it has (from my reading) is actually a 64-bit processor
I'd probably say you shouldn't have much trouble finding a bigger DDR3 memory stick for it for dirt cheap or free from an e-wasted notebook
Ultimately it depends if the performance loss you're finding is memory limited or CPU limited right now, but I would think that giving it 2 or 4GB + giving it 64-bit would go a long way
This all happened two weeks before I started, so I don't know the exact details. If it was set up the way I think it was, I'd say yes, the DC was in it's own VM and then a separate VM would've been used as a NAS. Of course being hardware RAID the whole host server went down when that card failed.
They probably didn't have a second DC set up due to the DEFCON 5 levels of "We can't work!"
They were ultimately planning on going to the cloud anyway from what I heard and that catastrophe just accelerated that plan ahead
I got a server from ewaste because the RAID card did fail and having SAS drives they couldn't even pull data from it with anything else. It was the domain controller and NAS so as you can imagine, very disruptive to the business. As they should they had an offsite backup of the system and so we just restored onto a gaming PC as a temporary solution until we moved them to M365 instead.
I just use software RAID on it now and so far so good for about 180 days.
Short answer: GeyserMC sidesteps that player authentication process Java players need to do
Long answer:
I've used and set up GeyserMC before. It sounds like the server you're joining has online-mode on, which requires all Java players who are joining to have a valid Java account and current authentication.
GeyserMC, being a mod to the server, entirely sidesteps this entire process. Your Bedrock cracked client requests to join and GeyserMC, being the way your client communicates with the server, just let's you in. It just sends your client the chunks, the entities, etc. and lets you interact with them, and Java players are shown an additional Player entity (being you).
GeyserMC actually has authentication a server owner can set up that does require a valid Bedrock account or valid Java account, but it seems the server(s) you're playing hasn't set this up.
My thoughts exactly seeing this post. Haven't heard that particular rhetoric here before. Typing this from my Pixel 7a running GrapheneOS
I never actually understood why retarded was used by mechanics when a car wasn't running right "The timing on this is a bit retarded" but now I know. Thank you
The question is so generic and open ended it's not a surprise. The only filter on this is "runs well on ThinkPad" and "lightweight", which are both up to interpretation
Can completely agree with the LMDE 6 recommendation
I decided on the basis of making my hardware last as long as I can, I chucked an i7-2760QM into my Latitude E6420 and 16GB DDR3 memory, shit actually runs flawlessly with LMDE. It even was able to run Windows Server 2022 in a VM while having me screen share said VM for an assignment I had.
I've had experience with the older Toughbook CF-18's and Linux (specifically Xubuntu actually), in my case mine worked out of box, but I had the digitizer option.
Could you give us the output of the lspci and lsusb commands, to see if it's being detected?
There is also Synaptic which is a graphical front-end for apt, although I would definitely class it as less user friendly than Discover and the like.
I know if I was doing some Linux challenge with no terminal it would have to be my crutch.
Edit: Arch Linux has pamac which I used more frequently than the terminal back then.
I think this is a bad take, a take that assumes one is superior for using Linux over proprietary alternatives
