storage: ZFS RAID2 array of three hundred free icloud accounts
I bet somebody's been bored and/or psychotic enough to have done that, booted a Linux machine from it, and played DOOM on it.

MODERATORS
I had planned to do some productive work tomorrow, but this is calling to me. I must be strong...
Go on! You know you want to!
Now that we have decided you are going to do it. Share the results of whatever comes out it.
I'm sure I saw something like that a while ago, but it was mostly a joke project. Can't remember its name or anything though.
For a more exciting FS, there is: https://github.com/yarrick/pingfs
There was a brief fascination with gmail-as-a-drive when it came out and offered people 1GB of storage. I remember someone wrote a driver that cut your data up and stored it as email attachments.
Back when I was on reddit, I remember finding some obscure subreddits that only had one approved poster and every post was filled to the brim with nothing but hexadecimal.
In theory, any website that allows you to post things could be used as a storage drive...

The joy of FUSE is that anyone can make a file system pretty easily.
You just gotta love the "do not hallucinate" part of that prompt, which is like taking a person tripping balls on LSD, and telling them "now hear this, I want you to only tell me facts, and I do not want you to hallucinate!"
Good luck with THAT.
Clanker equivalent of telling an angry spouse to stop overreacting.

I've been unable to replicate this issue.
I have the exact same build except my network card is an official Playstation 2 network adapter. Try replacing the LLM.

I've got the same setup but I found the issue wasn't the hardware but a driver conflict with my Nintendo Gameboy Printer. I was able to rollback and get it working fine.
The president called. They want you to be their technical advisor
Where did you roll back toΒΏ
To 1989.
That's odd, Debian should run on that without issues.
Probably the LLM cosplaying as an ethernet card. Everything else should work fine with Debian.
Idk, I just tried it on a similar set up (I don't have networking per se, just two pigeons with flash drives).
Works perfectly.
Maybe check the stability of gerbils in the PSU.

Must be a bug on Debian side. That's all common hardware, so you can just rely on someone else to report it and you'll be back up in a day or 2.
Debian is the universal operating system, and I'm sure OP's computer exists in some universe. File a bug.

Don't let your dreams be dreams
they obviously didn't RTFM, specifically section 6.4. Loading Missing Firmware
but actually I'm not sure where to find the TNT drivers for Linux anymore... https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/riva-drivers/ has them for OS/2 and BeOS but no Linux π€
edit: ok so https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/details/21931/ has it for i386 Linux, OP can probably just ask their ethernet LLM to port it to rv128
ZFS RAID2
I assume they mesnt RAID-Z2 but I'd like to think they actually meant a ZFS array built on top of an obselete RAID 2 of cloud accounts lol
Definitely meant the second one because it's way funnier
yes, the problem is you did not sacrifice a live goat while mercury is in retrograde and github is down, as is custom for digital magic and necromancy.

Giving the error so much attention is collapsing its wave function. Try ignoring it for a few days and see if it doesn't sort itself out.
wait does risc-v firmware for the crusoe actually exist? that sounds fun
The Riva line were absolute bangers tbh. Mad props to the driver developers who were always playing catch-up on the hardware (mad props to the hardware designers implied) but always delivered the goods. I honestly hope they're rich AF.
The TNT cards doesnt have SLI right? Change to some voodoos and you should be golden.

I'm sure this is funny.
Recompile the kernel with CONFIG_WTF=y and Bob's your uncle.
Skill issue, obviously.
I legit have a transmeta Crusoe. But its stock π I need to find a good IDE to SATA adapter to replace the dead HD in it and get it to boot.
Forgot the power supply.
Idling 2005 Saturn Ion on a salvage title.
yeah no mmu
You forgot sudo.
Missing potato?!
Apple sauce is not a universal replacement for eggs! ... huh? Oh, force of habit. Also, the requirements clearly state Apollo-era core rope memory.
