  1. I was replying to the specific condition where an infected PC is put onto the network that contains a router. Those router issues you speak of come either that way from manufacturing, from a bad firmware update or from the internet.
  2. No one can really say. Here you can drive anything you want but it has to pass inspection. I'm sure there are different rules for different things. During the summer you can see vehicles from 80 years ago being driven around. There is also a consideration toward import laws. Some vehicles are illegal to drive here only because they are illegal to import, based on emissions, safety or some other regulation. Two examples are Nissan Skyline GT-R (car from 2 Fast 2 Furious movie) and I seem to recall that Hyundai made a model of Elantra for Europe in the 2010s that got 2-3x the MPG as the US model but was banned for import.
  3. 2 computers connect to the same interface, so the possibility exists. Most (like 99.9%) of consumer routers never get updates or patched for CVEs.
  4. The Paris Agreement has always had the same complaint about it, that it was just an agreement and not binding. It was just used as a badge of honor. Many countries joined it but didn't change their operating procedures or used it as an excuse to make money from their citizens.
  5. They are not reliable as a straight adapter. It comes down to whether the computer sends the correct signals and also on the monitor. I stopped using them because I kept running into scenarios where the adapter would work on one computer but not another, or various displays not working with them. There are also situations where you can get no video during boot, in Setup, in text mode (Windows or Linux), etc. HDMI to VGA has the same issues but usually worked more than the DVI variety. They are cheap enough to try if you have a lot of hardware to use, but I wouldn't bank on it or recommend to someone with just 1 computer because the possibility exists that they could end up with something they can't use.
  6. IDK but this is os, so you could compile it for 64bit https://github.com/nobbele/bytepatcher I'm presuming it is a different project than what you posted about but with the same name.
  7. You are networked. I do not know how the usage of accounts relates to the internal policies of the router. That is something you'll have to research if you don't provide the model to us.
  8. Add "Industrial PC" to your search terms. Companies like Advantech, Logic Supply, Smartvue, etc.
  9. The router itself doesn't really have storage. It is not impossible but the malware would have to be specifically designed to be able to write to the router and outside of a TI, that isn't likely to be the case. It is certainly possible to cause problems for other computers on the same subnet. You will need to look into your router settings to see if it has an option for client isolation on WLAN. That should prevent other wireless clients from seeing each other in addition to wired clients being able to see wireless. I've seen some routers where this is enabled by default. The obvious first thing you should not do is put an infected system on a network. Clean it first, then you can connect it. Otherwise if you are asking for how you can completely isolate an infected machine on a shared network, that is another story and may not be possible with your current hardware setup. Of course, we have no idea what network hardware you are dealing with.
  10. There is probably one that runs on the server itself, but the forum doesn't have anything built into it. I'm not aware of any forums that do.
  11. This would likely be a situation that is technically possible but incredibly difficult to do. Depending on the age of the disk, the geometry and position information is stored on a chip on the disk's PCB so you would need to swap that as well. As I understand it, this type of task would require that the platters be put into the exact same position in the new drive shell as they were in the old shell and the servo would also need to be in the exact same position. Otherwise, the servo is going to be attempting to read information in the wrong location and will likely make data recovery impossible. So basically, the information on the chip already matches the servo and position information on the current disk, in order to move the chip and the platters to a different servo mechanism (aka use the servo mechanism in another physical disk) would require you to keep that positioning within the disk's tolerance. Grok indicates that the amount of tolerance for misaligned disks is +10-15% of the track width, where track width is measured in nm (nanometers) and that for a disk with a 50 nm track width, the tolerance would be +5-7.5 nm. Of course you would need some specific and highly accurate setup to accomplish this type of switchover, as well as a clean room.
  12. After a quick look, it appears that current chats are located in C:\users\user\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Teams\IndexedDB\https_teams.microsoft.com_0_indexeddb.leveldb\n.log where user = the user Teams is installed for where n = some number There is another dir in IndexedDB that has a ton of subdir that could be where old chats are located.
  13. Such boards exist but are the types that would have multiple on-board storage controllers. Where certain ports are assigned to a SATA controller and others are assigned to a RAID controller. On those types of boards, you could set the SATA controller to IDE and the RAID controller to AHCI or vice-versa.
  14. After some research it seems that PNG had been supported for some time on programs I had not used. I first encountered it in Fireworks and for years Fireworks was the only program that could manipulate it. I knew years later that once I came across programs that could support PNG that they did not have the ability to read the shape data or even the layers of a PNG created in Fireworks, and treated them as flattened. I had figured that this was just another example of some advanced features that were phased out due to lack of use.
  15. I have yet to see any board that doesn't have an IDE option. Even high end server boards still have it. That setting is not relating to the physical connection but to how IDE used to operate.
