Looks like you’re referring to the laptop version of these parts.
The 1650 was a weird chip for an gone era. But I’d expect it to work, marginally less performance to the 1060.
If you have a thunderbolt port you could look into using an Intel b580 in an egpu case if shopping for another system is out of the question. (Bad market currently)

I understand that. It’s just that this entire argument doesn’t qualify. The OS has no out of spec influence over the modem due to its design. Its entirely self-contained component with its own firmware and driver stack. The OS is at the mercy of the modem’s firmware and that firmware prevents this exact scenario described.
- Comment on W10 EoL and possibly switching to Linux (various tech questions) 4 weeks ago:
Steam makes OS unique modifications to the game, trying to share the same game drive between them causes an update war and corruption.
I’ve tried it a few times, never goes well long term. Generally, I partition the drive and only use windows for problematic games like pubg.
Also, if you enjoy workshop features in games with a native Linux version like Left4Dead 2 or Garry’s mod. I would recommend you force the windows version by selecting proton in the compatibility section under properties for that game. Some workshop mods don’t play nice on Linux and its like playing whack-a-mole solving it.

Something I want to tag on for anyone pondering this.
Steam on Linux will be unstable if you try to use your NTFS drive for games. As the support of the filesystem isn’t consistent.

That’s a bit of a huge stretch.
People can load custom operating systems on their computer all they want without turning their wifi and Bluetooth adapter into a two way software defined radio.

You got me curious, looks like it became a standard in 2021. Pretty old for a performance laptop but I’d imagine that it took awhile for the manufacturers to catch up. Thanks

That’s a goofy design choice.

I remember downloads having 40+ rar files so you didn’t need to restart the entire download.

- Comment on Is there any good free tutorials/courses that cover setup and administration of websites and web apps? 1 month ago:
You’re probably interested in full stack and infrastructure.
Look for resources on how to securely manage a Linux server (ssh, hardening, backups, VPS management). How to securely work with Apache and NodeJS. ( Scaling, TLS configuration, data sanitization). (Just examples of tools feel free to explore your options)
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has a great deal of freely accessible learning resources. Give this a look through.

If you’re not too concerned about value. Check around your community for estate sales. Wonder around them if you like the vibe as if you can hire them for your situation.
Generally they do a decent job organizing and protecting family photos and such.
- Comment on Not up to snuff on all the medical disection stuff. But can a 42 year old overweight heavy beer drinker donate his semi fatty liver? 1 month ago:
The medical protocol varies by region. Generally speaking, it’s considered a violation of their oath to knowingly transplant diseased organs or leave a patient with a diminished capacity to thrive. (Such as donating a lobe to a family member when you’re still alive.)
In the event of an emergency donation such as brain death. Special considerations will be taken, they may deem the liver to be suitable for transplantation after a battery of tests.

There is a constructed language that I suspect is free from sarcasm. (At least if it’s used formally)

- Comment on How can I find out what graphics card upgrade is compatible with my system? 1 month ago:
The thought just hit me if you’re playing with prime-select. It may have been using your integrated graphics instead for the window manager. Glad you got it solved either way.

- Comment on Is there a decent video compressor like compressing from like 4k to 720p? Quality not an issue. I am used to watching cams when movies come out. Just size downward. 1 month ago:
I like the Internet Friendly Media Encoder. Works on most computers and it’s got lots of useful features and presets so you don’t need to think too hard.
