I recently got a Chinese "WoWe" mini PC with a Ryzen 5 for like $150 brand new. I got it to replace a raspberry pi and serve as my home VPN server and DNS Cache (PiHole). I made a backup of its factory Windows 10 image with Clonezilla, then immediately nuked it and installed Debian. So if you wanna be extra paranoid just nuke whatever is on it and install your own operating system of choice and you should be fine. I wonder though, if I couldn't restore that image to a virtual machine and boot it up just to see what, if any shady stuff came on it. -

I've written a Substack article where I talk about the expected release date for Debian 13 (August 9th) and cover some of the upcoming changes that will either affect me personally, or that I thought noteworthy. You can read the whole thing here: https://open.substack.com/pub/gerowen/p/debian-gnulinux-13-trixie-is-just?r=54rcsd&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true It's rather long and has several images that would probably exceed the attachment limit, but I'll copy and paste the first little bit of it here: -

Too many middle managers at these big companies are the problem imo. The guys under them do all the work but these VPs or PMs fight with each other in order to move up the ladder which just messes things up. -

Microsoft lifts another long-standing Windows 11 24H2 block, allowing more people to upgrade by Taras Buria In October 2024, Microsoft released Windows 11 version 24H2 with quite a long list of known bugs and upgrade blocks. Ever since, Microsoft has been slowly patching those bugs and lifting blocks one by one. Now, the company is removing another upgrade block, letting more Windows 10 and Windows 11 users upgrade to the latest version ahead of the upcoming end of Windows 10 support. The block in question affects PCs with Easy Anti-Cheat, an anti-cheat solution embedded in many popular games, such as PUBG or Fortnite. According to the official documentation, the compatibility issue affects systems with Intel's Alder Lake+ processors and the vPro platform with Easy Anti-Cheat drivers released before April 2024. Affected systems crash to the blue screen of death (now black screen of death) with the "MEMORY_MANAGEMENT" error. However, blue screens of death do not occur if games do not use outdated drivers that are present on the device. The upgrade block was placed on September 30, 2024, and now, nearly ten months later, Microsoft has lifted it. As of July 24, 2025, affected systems can finally install Windows 11 version 24H2 via Windows Update. Note that Windows Update might still prompt you to update games that use an incompatible Easy Anti-Cheat version. Compatibility issues with Easy Anti-Cheat are only present in Windows 11 version 24H2, so if you are running older Windows 11 versions or Windows 10, there should not be any crashes, even with outdated drivers. Windows 11 version 25H2 is coming in a couple of months, but its predecessor still has several upgrade blocks in place. There are compatibility issues with Intel Smart Sound Technology drivers, hanging apps that use the camera, audio output losses on PCs with Dirac Audio, and sprotect.sys driver issues. -
