should i buy 64gb of ram?
>>100535957yes consoom
>>100535957yeah. i have 2x32gb like those in your pic, the quality of life it brings you is worth it 32 is fine for now but it won't be in the near feature
I still have 8gb
>>100535957Shit's cheap so why not? I use mine for VMs.
>>100535957>>100539948if you're doing labs and setting up VM's its nice to have the extra memory

What do the thermal settings in the BIOS do? It can be balanced or max performance, but nothing seems to change in the OS. I still have to set the platform profile to avoid throttling.

I've been building PCs since I was like 12. Here's the process today:>assemble PC>wait 10mins for DDR5 to train (zero feedback, no POST, nothing)>something goes wrong (no idea why, because zero feedback)>want to reset CMOS to troubleshoot>have to remove fuck-huge GPU that covers 4 PCI slots just to remove the CMOS battery>there's still no CMOS reset button on 99% of motherboards ofc>want to update BIOS (just in case)>hope you have a spare CPU (I do) or your motherboard is premium and supports BIOS flashing without a CPU (of course there will be no feedback, just a black screen)Hardware used to be engineered properly, but now it seems like everyone is mimicking software "engineers" and designing things shoddily. This is why everyone is moving to Mac, btw. If it performs even half as well without these issues, who in their right mind would bother with PCs? >t. just swapped out my 7950x for a 7800x3d and despite the BIOS being updated, the memory won't train unless I insert 1 DIMM at a time, train, reboot, and insert another ad nauseum. Oh, and I forgot. nvidia screwed up PCIE power connector design, so you'll also burn your house down.
>>100519919And this is why I’m running a barebones Debian install with a WM. It’s like things actually work again.
>>100525557That’s the shitware firewall your systems admin team put on there. Carbon Black regularly pegged my CPU at 100% usage when nothing was going on. I eventually had them build me a VM with admin privileges which they thankfully forgot about.
>>100519771I don't get it, my ddr5 system posted immediately with 32gb first power up.

What's the use case for GNOME? I tried it out earlier and it was just a waste of time.Since GNOME is Red Hat's baby and as such receives funding directly from IBM I expected it to be the nec plus ultra of desktop environments on Linux but honestly I think it might be the worst.It's a buggy piece of shit. After installing task-gnome-desktop here are all the bugs I encountered within less than an hour of use:>Open in Terminal... does nothing>images are randomly opened in Shotwell or the image viewer>file properties randomly open dolphin or gnome's file property dialog>switching the theme from breeze to Adwaita crashed Gnome>logging out made the colors on my monitor all funky, which was only fixed by turning the monitor off and on again (I have NEVER seen another desktop or even Windows do this)>nothing would launch within the first 30 seconds of the session being opened, then everything would open all at once>counter-strike was automatically added to my list of programs that open automatically when I log in>couldn't launch games on Steam. After logging back into KDE ==> worked perfectly fine, so it was definitely a GNOME issue.I'll not bring up questionable decisions either, like making me do "Authorize execution" on a shortcut even though the file itself has execution permissions. Or the ridiculous amounts of padding on everything. Is GNOME designed for the near sighted?So from what I can tell, GNOME is the biggest, most developed desktop environment of all, but at the same time it's the most prone to breaking and buggiest of them all. What sense does that make?
IBM is trying to sabotage the Linux desktop
>>100537593>>Open in Terminal... does nothing>>nothing would launch within the first 30 seconds of the session being opened, then everything would open all at onceWere you running GNOME on Xorg? I had the exact same problems on a fresh Ubuntu install and it turned out to be only on Xorg.
>>100537593>ridiculous amounts of padding on everything.That, and the abysmal font rendering, has been enough to keep me away from desktop Linux for good

>>100536354Tranny porn isn't gay.
>>100531357Is it just like what Windows 10 LTSC was for the regular Windows 10 or did they mess it all up?
>>100533683macOS and Android force encrypts your device as well and unlike windows you are not able to disable it or backup your key so you could get your data back in case of a failure. but of course ms gets all the beating kek.
>>100534099ah, so i'll stay right here on windows 10 then.
>>100531528This. Also the fact that most of my computers simply can't run Windows 11 due to their CPU requirements things.

hardware is 100x better yet software is hilariously slow and bloated.

>>100539800Cool it with the antisemitism. How would your friendly hardware merchant make a profit if applications didn't generate a low baseline CPU load?
>>100524246>where did it all go wrong?When the iPhone was released.Back then people programmed against Win32 and no one cared about cross-platform compatibility. Now you have to account for all sort of retarded form factors and this in turn means most people will use a shitty framework, the vast majority of those web-based, which is an obvious clusterfuck that doesn't require any explanation.

THE TIME HAS COME /g/ for us to decide which is the masterrace phone application for groceriesCurrently I use "Grocery List with synch": https://apps.apple.com/us/app/grocery-list-with-sync/id491297400 Pretty functional and works well - click once to cross something out, click again to flag you need to buy it. But it has a few problems:>Has a tag color system coupled with a ":" separator that is not very logical, gets in the way. It tries to get you to register items in a certain way and you have to hit backspace to ignore and do your own way. Not an issue but needlessly confusing>Doesn't let you add entries with space, you have to use hyphen. Sometimes, it let's you. Again, needlessly confusing>The free version only lets you have 3 separate lists>Paid version is pretty expensiveI almost paid for it once despite all that. I didn't because it literally wiped all my entries once when they updated to a new version or something, so that made me want to find an alternative instead.What do you recommend anon?
>>100539669I just write down my list in a note like a functioning human being.

Just replace working class until everyone is out of job? Is this really the future you want? https://youtu.be/U2vq9LUbDGs
>>100524341That's not AI. That's the modern Zeitgeist where the public exists to serve the vaguely capitalist economy instead of the other way around. We could choose differently. In theory.
>>100537094You know it won't.

>>100526689>>100526980>Misses the point entirely AGAINIt's not about creating or creativity, it's about experiencing a certain thing. If all you wanted to do was create then you obviously would pick the best tool for the job (be it hiring someone, doing it yourself if you have the means, AI, etc.)Again, same example, most people who learn to play existing songs are not looking to create, they are looking to experience the feeling of playing the song. This is literally a matter of ego, and completely irreplaceable by anything external.
>>100524341Fuck it, let them take the jobs, it's the natural course for some people to render other people obsolete. Nothing you can do about it.
which way, white man?
>>100537596Neither. In the left version, extract the switch into a separate function.

Depends, if I use the same code more than once I use B, all other cases: A

Has anybody tried porting an RTX 3080 Ti driver to Windows 7? I'm not really keen on the idea of switching to Linux.
>>100539740You have two choices Run windows 7, it will keep working forever with the software you have installed right nowupdoot, if you want to keep updooting your software you need to updoot your OS
i wanna try windows 7 with my 4070 but im scared lol
>>100539740What do you still need Windows 7 for?
Can Windows 7 even run DirectX 12 games?
