Wireless Adapter for Zephyrus G16 by ASUS
I tried Netrunner but the Linux kernel didn't support the wireless. From Linux I've tried compiling a kernel for the WiFi driver alone, but the Netrunner's /etc boot scripts broke at reboot. It could not load the wireless. There were troubles involving the UEFI and "Secure Boot" BIOS situation, which could have been thought over better, as buying a $25 adapter here seems to point to a way that can work. This has all been judged for done by using a BalanaEtcher scribed 1 TB USB SSD disk, after creating/reboot from Microsoft Windows 11. In this circumstance I attempted to dive into the installed Linux, but it overwhelmed me (and my computer, due to the many reboots). Why it failed for me and why I'm putting to the test of trial use, a wireless adapter (for PC) that promises wireless detection in Linux.
-- Linux on Zephyrus G16 Update --
Again, I'm getting the $29 Panda Wireless USB Adapter, from Amazon. This particular device item has its for sale page, in which it has been stated that it is very supportive of Linux systems. We'll be putting it to the test, since alone it supports majority of Linux distributions. I'm going forward with Linux detection check, for Debian or Ubuntu. It will be through our use of the system (ASUS Zephyrus G16, AMD, RTX 4070, 32 GB, 2 TB) which we will bring perspectives and utilization of this particular device, that are interesting to hear about, especially if you have troubles involving installing Linux due to WiFi.

Virtualbox 🖱️
For those that are opting to use VirtualBox software I've found that Debian works flawlessly and gives the effect you would be seeking elsewhere, for else you don't have the money to buy this network adapter or desire to go through all the hassle of compiling a kernel just to get the MediaTek wireless running with the newer kernel's support.
The antenna is removable, so it works good with an added feature of 📶 signal.
Interview Simulation (at Cordilleras)
Stay on the trail with Zonefileyouth@ your platfrom to understand technology. Illawela has come, and yesterday I assisted Stars, Inc. behavioral group (a business) in interviewing a new employee. I got to see the 40+ job interviews I've done and bombed on into a new perspective, which I acknowledged experiencing some critical perspective/aspects for my job hunt success pulling forward. I've redone my resume to be less than 2 pages while, the skills includes *.pk NIC ccTLD active in history. My job goal is probably system administrator or the minimum wage,, my GED and computer science math are supported. Some computer science math I need to learn is octal representations, for "CIDR" or IP subnet attribution. Then there's the need for hexadecimal numeric definition - where 0-9/0-F formatted enters reproduction to meet a conversion and plain numbers understanding
What could be developing at Zonefileyouth? Could it be our time? As what we feature could be for programming, DevOps skills, are novice at best. I want to set the record straight. I originally pursued Linux Administrator, from Nuper Technology (Daniel Wood). I want to be rightly for the curve I could exact out of job success, for my resume. I don't see many systems administrator jobs asking for these particular math skills so I'm sure that moving forward with my resume can work. I'm the "grandmaster of dazzling automation". This resume is spanning no more than 13 years, and I'm taking the STARS, Inc. behavioral perspective for store away later procedure, because getting a job here has always been so powerfully difficult.
Imagine: the perception of yourself in what you sounded like, at a job interview, at your presence. This was critical because the person was new and was stumbling around a bit in the questioning. Now I can drive skill through this place and make a good living/salary for myself. To me a good living involved a gym pass and healthcare, with some time off paid for sickness, throughout all the job interview struggle. I present ways mainly here and on Monster, Indeed, and ZipRecruiter.
Come by and we will demonstrate in our content what next it took to ace/succeed that DevOps job interview, with thoughts on the side.

Hello! 🙌🏼
I recently bought a mid-level gaming laptop and am writing to respond to a comment that Reddit talks about often, and it is about a computer's electronics and screen care. I often saw many are regarding the awesome OLED screen to be something worth cleaning. I have owned this laptop since January of 2025 and along with it I got some accessories, with one of them being the clean care wipes kit. I purchased a 16 inch laptop bag -AND- a Pelican carry case to go with my ASUS laptop. I carry the Pelican case with the laptop inside it, which securely fits inside the backpack. Next, for preserving the screen I got myself a container of 60 Miracle Wipes.
"You won't believe how clean the screen becomes after using these, it really justifies their price. I got these to clean my screen and, with the included microfiber polishing cloth they are the exact way you would want to keep the screen looking new."
-- Power User Charles Thompson
Follow the instructions of this blog to consider it: with benefits that your electronics and OLED screen(s) are going to be looking brand new, fresh as the day you bought them. The metal finish of the ASUS Zephyrus G16 laptop does not give way to any transportation or weight-related screen scratches from carrying the backpack around, so far. You should use 2 wipes each time: one for the computer screen and another for the keyboard surface & exterior. I gently wipe down each key's row and the screen, following up with light-to-moderate use the using of the microfiber cloth to buffing away all the Miracle Wipes' polishing liquid. Cleaning off the laptop equipment's surfaces is a must for the every day use you put it through, and you can use our provided links to take advantage of this opportunity to preserve and feel the fresh technology effect as it was the day you bought it!

I've attempted to install Netrunner 25 Linux but ran into obstacles. I was using the virtualization of VMWare and Virtualbox to attempt at making a GPT disk that will boot off this little disk: the Samsung Extreme 1TB SSD.
Finally at last, trying with VMWare Workstation Pro (a free software) to demonstrate I've installed Linux exclusively to a disk that can boot in the BIOS with the Secure Boot feature turned "DISABLED". I have rebooted at least 45 times now, working with the Linux kernel at 6.14.0, specifically in case not correct the modern drivers for my MediaTek Wifi.
Netrunner Linux a disaster, but I 'll fight (updated)
I went for about 4 hours of work trying to get Netrunner 25 to boot and load my wireless.
It needs a compiled Linux kernel with specifics to my wireless card, many .deb files. Maybe I'll automate a way to get this done. It took me several days to understand EFI BIOS and its relation to Grub. Its a Linux party, on my own at age 42 doing my runs against being Not able to install Netrunner 25 "Shockworm". I wanted a pro-grade OS that Netrunner looks like, so I am trying to put the disk's files on the 23GB Linux installation partition of my Extreme SSD.
I've been away for a little bit focused on getting my PC running this exotic Linux -- Netrunner Linux.
So far I am formatting the disk E:\ as "netrunner" isolated from an entire 1 TB Sandisk Extreme SSD (USB 3.0), hosted on my Windows 11 Home machine.
The goal is to partition and set Linux up on the drive using a Virtualbox, since I could not get the Mediatek Wi-Fi 7 MT7925 wireless device to connect
in the Netrunner Live USB is what I use to process other items under lsblk(1). "lshw(1)" is a monster sized file of information as well. There was need for chroot. To win with the partition settings you need to make an 8 MB file, unformatted, with boot-grub selected. You'll need a FAT32 partition, 1GB or less, for your EFI boot center motherboard communication in the boot process. You will need to find / -name *.efi and put all of the ones relating to monolithic inside the /boot/grub/EFI at this partition. You make a / boot area for your main disk, and the rest is simple.
Come back later and see it finished! I'll be back to talk about various things that interest, and other things shortly.
Managed to get USB drive recognized by Netrunner's installer disc (ISO), which had to be mounted virtually in Virtualbox
I found out there is no way to make a .efi boot file and loader from the Virtualbox USB (Sandisk Extreme 1TB). I decided I'm going to boot off the drive and load Linux another way, through the system controls I can make a local loader directory and import GRUB decision making to the BIOS area.

This latest computer system is going to be used for adapting within my career background to DevOps (instead of system administrator). Procedures from common use-case examples will aid my path so none can say I didn't know the tools. My purpose is to let others see a glimpse of what I have to go through to nail down a job using a tried/true resume (C.V.) for job seeking. If you are in technology already looking for your next role then this is the place to see. 📑🔖Limitsite.com is about advantages and choices made in the studio of resources among whatever the unexpected is. Meaning, that in that light-to-meaning this site brings out the best of what the unexpected is. I hope to contribute more so you understand what this is about.
Feel free to leave a comment and otherwise, have a nice night.

The Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 with the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor can last up to nine hours of real-world use. I got this laptop purchased and it is heading to my dorm at the Cordilleras. I spent a chunk of my SSI, about $2430, to get this laptop. What now remains is about less than $300 of accessories including the Bellroy Transit Backpack, a Kingston USB 3.2 Gen 2 1 Terabyte Thumb Drive, and a Pelican Traveler Laptop Case/Sleeve 16 Inch. I will be covering this laptop's speediness, battery life, and other features, all while having the option to play some games. It is nice that this comes so close to being a desktop replacement without shedding battery life. I am probably going to put Gentoo Linux on this machine. Let's see how fast it compiles and links the libraries.
I used to know how to make a kernel out of Linux's source code. It's good to finally be back at the PC with Windows 11 Pro and 32 GB of RAM. I was considering the Macbook Pro 14inch "M4 Pro" series with 512 GB disk and 24 GB of RAM for $1749, but decided that I like the 12 core AMD processor's efficiency on the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16. I plan to use VMWare player w/ Linux and OpenBSD, Docker, and more as we approach DevOps engineer employment in the Silicon Valley area. By having a more mobile computer experience this makes for an easier stride through the employment and living housing that I can go through with my experience. The remainder of my SSI is best spent as a rent/deposit but I can try to think of other things I want, perhaps sometime soon.
One more thing about this, is that it has newer battery technology. It allows a fast charge to 50% in 30 minutes. That, and its effective 9 hour battery life make this machine excellent for work and play. I'm going to be going to school with it too. I'll be here to talk about what I do on this machine later.
