Flogging Molly! Took my girlfriend (now wife) to see them for the first time 23 years ago. She loved it, so I figured she was worth keeping. We’ve seen them eight times now over the years, always a great show. Thankfully Dave King made it through his head injury and coma, so the band may be back playing again this year.
IPA = Isopropyl Alcohol = Isopropanol = 2-Propanol. Yeah, there’s lots of names for the same thing.
A friend suggested using it, so we’re going to try it out this weekend for a game. While it’s a VC funded application, we figure it’ll be a few years before heavy enshittification sets in.
I just started looking at that this afternoon. May host my own on the game server I’m already running. Like that there are clients for Linux as well as Windows and Mac. My friend doing cross-play with his PS5 will probably have to link in using his phone though.
I did this, and installed the old drive into a USB adapter so I could easily pull any documents I may want to access. The Linux install will mount a NTFS drive, so worked great for that.
For the OP, while you CAN have the PC boot up to the Windows drive plugged into USB, I would not recommend doing it more than a couple times. Windows seems to hate this; I’ve had two installations of Win10 Pro eat itself and become unbootable, could not be repaired. The files were still accessible through Linux though so was able to make copies.
Infrared lasers used in lidar systems will damage phone cameras, so likely will fry surveillance cameras as well. You can buy 1550nm lasers used as illuminators for night vision systems. Probably want a Class 2 or 3.

The self-tapping screws have a hardened tip, so probably last a bit longer than standard screws. Good choice.
