I haven't ruled out a physical hardware issue. The OS was detecting the device. Its not a USB device, its a PS/2 device which isn't something I work with often. This was a few months ago so don't recall much of what I was tried.

I'm worried establishment Dems would skuttle the party's infrastructure before letting anti-genocide socialists take over. That being said, it is the only way forward.
I can tell you from personal experience, 8GB is not enough for a snappy experience. Maybe if you had it setup to churn through data overnight. My RTX 3060 Ti was not happy.
