It most certainly won't apply to their own bots.

Yes, you definitely have to be careful with them. They do come in handy when I can't find the correct power supply or even one that will work despite having a 50 pound bin full of them.

It would be much more useful with USB PPS support for adjustable voltage and barrel plugs that can be swapped.

what happens when Little Timmy spends $9000 for Nlartbux in a mobile game’s external store?

That's why you don't put your credit card info in a phone or tablet and let kids play with it.

Play around in a virtual machine so you don't have to worry about messing anything up. Start with the basics such as navigating through directories and creating, editing, and moving files. If you break something, just restore a snapshot.

It will probably generate so many false alerts that they just start ignoring all of them.

It was dead to me after microsoft bought it.

The maximum real world speed for USB 2 is around 320Mbps or 40MB/s, but that only happens if there is only one device connected to the USB controller. 30MB/s is much more typical.

Not until I can self host my own server.

Big tech is our enemy. It doesn't matter if it's facebook or tiktok.

You typically only have issues if you want to use a newly released card with a distro that doesn't run a recent kernel or if you want to use GPU compute.

It should be able to run games that support ARM. That means you are pretty much limited to open source games. The CPU clock speed is fairly low, so don't expect great performance. These systems are intended for heavily multithreaded workloads.
