It’s running the 32bit version of Bodhi linux, but a 2009 netbook has risen from the grave.
I wonder if you could play some of the Soldak games on it? I got Drox Operative 2 running on a low spec laptop from 2011 at 60FPS.
Probably the newest games with the lowest spec requirements I can think of. Otherwise there is retro gaming.
The most annoying part of these PCs is usually the keyboard - so terribly small! I have one tucked away which I see no reason to throw away, yet I have troubles finding a use for it. I’m thinking of building some sort of enclosure to hide the body, and use it as some sort of electronic journal with a properly sized keyboard. Hmm.
Don’t need to use the keyboard if you just access it over SSH
I have fumble-fingered my password so many times aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaais a terrible password.Shhh, my real password is hunter2
hunter2 is definitely the better choice in terms of password strength
What a wonderful website for collecting people’s passwords!
If you wanted to get fancy, you could combine this with some cross-site trackers and be able to associate these passwords with facebook/google accounts that they potentially unlock. But it would also be incredibly useful for training and refining the next generation of brute force password guessing software – it would allow you to get a good sampling of various patterns usually found in passwords.
100%. They are hilarious and provided unironically by so many well known, and lesser known, security related vendors and even multiple government sites throughout the world. Just by supplying your password to one of these sites you have technically made your password less secure.
And it’s running Firefox with two tabs open 😁Careful, that may be near the maximum of its browsing capabilities! Browsers (and webpages) were different beasts 17 years ago.
My fingernails are itchy looking at those stickers…
I’m using a 2007 laptop to run a cnc plasma cutter and its can also run librecad no problem.
Lovely work. It’s great to show how these old machines can still get stuff done if you forget Windows
Ah, I’m running something on an Atom proc as well. Sort of an emergency terminal. Nice and simple.
ahh amazing! netbooks are so portable, i miss the one i used for everything in the 2010s 🥹🫶
These were ruggedized for students, and it was perfect for tossing into a backpack.
You love to see it.
Wonderful !
