Define “worked” in this context. You mean their own infrastructure didn’t crash? You certainly didn’t pop down to the store and buying anything useful with Monero 😂

Which driver is currently enabled? Radeon or amdgpu?

Also, in the context of what “Allocate 0” means, that IS your graphics card, if you only have one. Data types like arrays and lists start at 0 (ex: 0,1,2,3…)

Never heard of it, but it will stop working eventually not because of QT, but due to updated distros replacing aging or insecure libraries or compilation tools that will be incompatible with this software. You would have the option of keeping it running on an older LTS release of something, but eventually that will also run out. Best to just find an alternative that is actively developed at some point.

No, “Hanging Chad”, and the idiocy to preserve norms and just concede instead of challenging the election results in Florida and other states is how GBJ got into office.

Yeah, that’ll work. Gparted should wipe the destination disk for you and set the boundaries and such. Should be super easy. You can find guides online as well.

Clonezilla is also a super easy route.

Didn’t work the first time. Won’t work the second time either because literally everyone will be ready and prepared for that, unlike last time.

Just using DD like this is not doing a bit clone of your drive. What you want to do can be done with DD on a blank disk (no filesystem), but you might as well just use gparted and make it easy on yourself. Otherwise, you need make sure the source and destination disks have the exact same geometry and such…it’s just more steps you seem to not want to take. Just take the easy route.

Because it does nothing but cost the event cities money, and leaves a bunch of dead infrastructure behind.

The only solid reason I can think carry anything on a USB stick is if you’re going to be in an area without Internet. If you’re in an IT role where you’re interacting with end-user machines all the time, then the answer would obviously be some sort of live environment to troubleshoot or fix issues. In that case, load a Ventoy partition with a few different images, and and be done with it I guess.

If you’re thinking like a Prepper or whatever, keep a copy of Wikipedia, and some survival books maybe? Maps? That’s all I can think of. If you’re going this far, better carry a backpack with portable solar panels, a large battery, and a lifejacket. None of this matters when you don’t have food and water though, so…
