What am I doing wrong here? The computer has Windows 11 on it but I don't want to use it I want it all the way off the machine.

Can this installer not overwrite the Windows OS with Debian? Edit: Just want to say thanks to all of you I'm going to experiment around with the advice you all have given and see how it works out! Absolutely love the passion and helpfulness of this community here on Lemmy for real!

On Debian's website it is saying to write the image to the USB stick I should use a bash script "# cp Debian.iso /dev/sdX

sync"

Is there another way to do this without using root access?

So I've never actually used a machine with UEFI before I've always been on older machines with BIOS.

I got a Dell Optiplex 3070 Intel core 9500T (gen 9) 2.1 GHz 16GB ram 256gb SSD but it has windows 11 on it.

I hate Windows, and I don't want any trace of it left on my machine. I'd prefer Debian but would even take Ubuntu over Windows What is the best guide for this for someone who has never messed with UEFI before?

We should be worried.

There is a post on the Monero subreddit about this AllArk (honeypot) site that is advertising an openly illegal amount of cash for in cash trades. That breaks the first rule of the monero subreddit (no illegal discussion)

now, I don't give a fuck if someone wants to break the law, it isn't my business. But in my eyes this is clearly a fucking honeypot site and what's more as far as I could find on the site and as other users in that discussion noticed as well it

-doesn't even accept Monero-

So at this point, I'm wondering why the fuck the mods would allow this elitedragon guy to post this shit like this and how it has stayed up for 4 days.

I'm wanting to run my own SimpleX chat server and set up a Monero node as well.

Can this be done on the same machine? I was considering getting a mini PC to do this so it wouldn't be too much of an issue with it being always on.

Or should I take a different approach and set up both separately on two different machines like a raspberry pi or something?

As I'm sure you can tell I don't have a lot of experience with self hosting anything but want to get into it to help strengthen the networks of these communities I care about.

Specifically for gaming and streaming in HD? Would I be able to share play games still as well or is that not happening even if I get the better Spitz router?

I want to use my MiG switch dumper to copy a game and have me and my buddy play them at the same time.

If we both play the same one online at the same time do we risk a ban?

I noticed that previous articles about it mentioned you could actually fake certificates and make it seem like two different games were playing? Does anyone know if that's still a thing?

For example used to it would show HBO Max, Netflix, etc. Now it doesn't do that and I can't figure out how to make it do it again.

Is using the router and modem my cable company provided for my internet putting my privacy at risk? And if so, I have heard of openWRT routers but it seems like there's quite a bit of a learning curve with that but even if I got one would I need a non cable company branded modem as well? Any specifically that anyone here would recommend?

I'm currently using Exodus wallet with my Trezor model T and have been having a rough time with it. If I download another wallet software and plug my trezor model T in will the same wallets come up if the wallet passwords are the same or is that not how that works?

Hey so I installed Yuzu (and many other emulators) via emu deck so the installation is taken care of I think except for the product keys and title keys I have a switch but dont want to fuck with getting the keys out of it and all that so Im trying to just download them I found a website called "theprodkeys.com" is this legit? Sorry if its been mentioned somewhere before I no longer have access to reddit anymore so I cant check the megathread listed that links to reddit.
