easier to use and understand is better for the general person

Still gotta think of mounting tho

night walrus
# fierce moth Still gotta think of mounting tho

i mean the voltage divider it just the main voltage line split into two different lines, adding a resistor on each eith a specific resistance difference then joined back into one cable, so you could get away with just cutting the main cable, solder 2 extra lines, with resistor, solder it back to the other end of the cable you cut, wrap the 2 spliced cables individually in electrical tape and ground if possible to minimize EMI and you good

night walrus
#

idk how think the plastic is, but if you can find a piece that is either thick or not the same as the case, you can probably add the inserts without them poking out of the console

#

idk if any of that made sense, I usually need a couple minutes to be able to phrase things and I was just saying that as it came into my head

Why not get one that's just 12

When i say Ubuntu is shit. they act like Ubuntu means Debian. which is bloody stupid because thats not how it works. and why Ubuntu distros arent seperated from Debian distros is beyond me you cant find Debian distros anymore. only Ubuntu.

Only problem was that when I kept pressing f11 to choose boot device it wasn't responding

Hmm, if you put an nvme inside, it might take up a sata port and post might disable your sata-connected device (the ones with cables)

M.2 is the formfactor but you can actually still get SATA drives in the M.2 formfactor.

If it's sata m.2, you might only be able to put it in the pcie_0 slot

# wise tundra Anyone here happens to have used powerline? Curious on how it works irl. I don't...

From 2015-2018 I used powerline where I lived, it essentially uses the copper wire in the walls as a transportation medium. Your mileage will vary in terms of transfer speeds, the distance the signal needs to cover will degrade the signal gradually, if either adapter is on a circuit that's under heavy load (is a high wattage appliance also using the same circuit for power) will affect the noise floor, and therefore impact the maximum throughput

arctic hill
#

So worth a shot, if it works for you it's actually a pretty sleek solution in my opinion

They do require a dedicated socket, you can't really use them through an extension, so bare that in mind. Some do come with pass through sockets however, but they tend to be the slower speed varieties.
