For that price you can get a decent surround sound system. Sound bars don't sound much better than the speakers built into the TV.

Commercial displays usually don't have a very good picture quality. They are intended to be used as signs and are optimized for brightness.

A good projector is definitely the way to go if you have the room for one.

Pellet printing is usually used in larger printers. You can get much higher flow rates and the pellets are cheaper than filament. That's good when your build volume is measured in cubic meters and you are using many kilograms of plastic in one print.

For 3D modeling, you can get a 3D mouse such as the SpaceMouse.

Then why have I had Duracells leak in an unopened package before the expiration date?

There are ARM CPUs for servers and cloud computing. Of course X86 CPUs are far more common, at least for now.

Is the pre amp powered over the coax? The filter may not be designed to handle power.
Nearby lightning could have fried the filter. A direct strike is not needed to cause damage.
It could just be terrible build quality. The filter could have had a bad solder joint that cracked.

There are ways to translate IPv6 to IPv4 so users can still access legacy sites.

Does your windows machine have WSL? I would just write a bash script that would DD the image to the drives. Keep in mind that you will be severely bandwidth limited by the USB interface, so it will take a long time. All of the ports on the controller share the same bandwidth. Ideally you would build a PC with lots of USB controller cards for that.

The International Space Station was transmitting slow scan TV pictures last week. You can receive them with a handheld radio and the stock antenna on the high elevation passes, but a handheld yagi antenna works much better.

I will still use it for testing things, but I will no longer use it for installing the OS on a PC I'm going to use until they get the BLOB issue sorted out.

That would be my suggestion. They only take a single slot and some are even passively cooled.
