Warning

If a user executes the Reset this PC command (Settings -> Update & Security -> Recovery) with the Keep my files option (or the Remove Everything option) the Windows Restricted Traffic Limited Functionality Baseline settings will need to be re-applied in order to re-restrict the device. Egress traffic may occur prior to the re-application of the Restricted Traffic Limited Functionality Baseline settings. To restrict a device effectively (first time or subsequently), it is recommended to apply the Restricted Traffic Limited Functionality Baseline settings package in offline mode. During update or upgrade of Windows, egress traffic may occur.

This guide just helped me realize why I don’t use windows. The fact that you need to remove and not add is why I like Linux.

Ok. I get it now. I’ve been trying to build something cheap as a Linux gaming setup and I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m better off buying the steam deck.

Yeah, but the form factor of the steam deck makes it more appealing if I want to set It up in the living room

I also couldn’t get sddm to work from the KDE settings. I changed the sddm.conf file manually and I’m using the catpuccin theme. The Arch wiki helped (as usual).

Thank you for the write up. It’s very helpful.
I’d pick another CPU (even Intel) but I understand that you’re bound to the motherboard. I’m looking for a SFF build, what’s your PC-case?

I also pay for it and watch it on my android TV. And I completely agree with you. But for now it’s my main source of TV and I mainly follow channels I subscribe. I don’t listen to music on YT, i do follow some live music channels

I don’t think that just by having an AMD card would solve your issue. Granted that with AMD there’s hardly any setup required.

Keep replying, be civil and people will engage with you. Most of us switched to Mastodon to avoid engagement algorithms

Debian runs on most cloud servers, it’s pretty secure. The outdated packages refer mostly to apps, which is the reason why Debian is so stable. No frills and boring. Documentation is plenty on the internet and for server space it’s probably the most compatible OS.
I’m running Debian 11, kernel 6.10 on Odroid. Arch on my desktop.

This is the future we were promised, dumb machines doing work 24/7. I’d change it to Debian but you stick with whatever works best for you.
