Alpine + distrobox/KVM make a perfectly workable ultra-minimalist desktop distro. You can use an Arch, Debian, or any other distrobox for all the corner cases where musl has no compatibility. Flatpaks are available too. Of course, it’s not a distribution for newcomers, but if you’re barely competent and tech savvy enough, there’s nothing you can’t do on Alpine that you can do on Arch, Fedora, or Ubuntu.
>>108856128Based on this thread, and a recent increase of mentions here in /g/, I just gave Alpine a try in qemu. I did a "sys" install. Rebooted. Just fine. Feels snappy, fast.No man pages? To save room, i guess.It appears that, out of the box, vi is the only text editor? Do I have that correct?
>based on fucking busybox
>>108879958What's the point if everything you're going to actually run is in distrobox or flatpak?

Can we have a thread for kino feature phones?Are there any good kits out there? I wanna build something that I wouldn't mind giving to someone prone to falling off trees and into muck.

Google, Microsoft, xAI, and Meta AI have all teamed up with the Chinese government and United States government to create a new ai operation called PROJECT YAHWEH which is basically this 3 thousand dollar device that gets installed into your skull and it feeds input to your brain directly, replacing your eyes, ears, nose, and tongue. And it puts you in a virtual ai generated world that can update in real time. Kinda like the Amazing Digital circus or Matrix but you have full control over it. Once you sign up you cannot leave, you get tied to a chair out in a big tower in the mountains of Montana and hooked up to an IV and a toilet seat. Then you are transported forever to the beautiful land of your prompts forever. Hooray. Embrace the future. In order to prevent climate change, all humans will be required to integrate into the virtual paradise by 2046. Lol.
Luddite sisters... AI is mogging mathematicians again
>>108876458Trying to deflect with "humor" I see. Well I saw it.Anyway, did it help you to avoid acknowledging what I said?
>>108879316I don't see what's so hard about>I WANT COME ON YOU>IN OUT IN OUT IN OUT IN OUT>GOOD DONEI think it expresses my mathematical intent
>>108870551If you want to really go down the conspiracy rabbit hole, what if they just hired some mathematicians and got them to solve the problem and then claim the AI did it?These companies have infinity dollars. They can afford to pay a fat sum to keep people quiet.
>>108870551>>108881151To be clear, that is kinda what they did. They hired a bunch of world-famous mathematicians and even as per their allegations, let the AI generate random mishmashes of existing math techniques that the mathematicians reviewed until one of them wasn't retarded. The non-retarded mishmash was then rewritten from scratch by the mathematicians.

>>108878888you bought a samsung retard what did your expect?
>>108879803nta but I've been looking at phones lately since I need an upgrade. samsung flagships seem to have the best all around balance of hardware, cameras, performance, battery, and price. sure, some other phones might have a slightly better camera or cleaner software, but then they skimp on the chipset or have a shitty sic battery for a similar price. that's why I'm stuck. is samsung actually as bad as some people on here say, or is it just overblown?
>>108878888>>108880902When I got my new Pixel 8a last year no bloat was added dunno about Samsung

he destroyed his own lab tb h.i was very surprised when the grok 2 or 3 benchmarks came in and were somewhat competitiveno one used the model obviously because they're all slow and worse than the others, but the team seemed fairly competentthen he just couldn't keep his hands off it - tinkering with the system prompt for his pet /pol/ shit, the grokipedia nonsense, the asinine coombot, letting people on the site put other people's kids in bathing suits for fucking hours (he still denies anything bad happened so it was definitely him tell them not to roll back immediately) - grok's still relatively popular with the coomers for undressing people - it's a lawsuit waiting to happencompletely missed the boat on agent harnesses and coding - the lab turned into a jokenow he's basically hoping the cursor boys can bail him out, but they've never trained a frontier model and i don't think he'll be able to stop himself from destroying whatever they build - dude's too far gone.oh and i guess slowly poisoning the town near colossus 1 isn't a good look either
My computer was heavily infected with viruses for over a decade. I had a crypto mining virus infecting my computer for 5+ years and only realized recently. I didn't have any protection other than malwarebytes. However, none of the viruses ever stole any of my accounts. Not my credit card, not my email, ETC. I used to be really dumb and run random .exe thinking it was necessary to download a minecraft mod.So I have to wonder why someone would even want to infect my computer in the first place? I never even reinstalled my OS.
>>108879719Not an option>>108879740Doesn't Defender have some vulnerabilities compared to what you'd get from a paid option? Saw that Defender may suffice for basic normie tasks but that a paid subscription might be better if you surf the web a lot as more of a power user since it includes slightly better security, more recent updates and perhaps extra features like a VPN
Sorry anon, it was me I won't do it again. I just needed some money for a new PC.
>>108879334I say this as a Linux user and it applies to any operating system.Linux package managers usually have cascading dependencies that will leave you with a stack only servers should need and the abyss of system configuration that comes with it.Windows is incredibly inefficient by default and gets exponentially worse the more software you install.

I just opened an ancient 404'd link to 2chan and a Lenovo Update started in the background on my W10 Thinkpad. Also an icon flashed on my taskbar and my start menu icons disappeared. Is this the revenge of the gooks?
>>108881054Websites cannot do shit like that unless you run an extremely outdated Web Browser / OS.Or if you manually ran a script/whatever and gave it all permissions.

>>108880169They are smooth, but they are slow.
>>108878160I have only 4GB ram and GNOME froze twice in Tumbleweed, nowadays I'm using Debian with LXQt and I'm kind of back to XP childhood (albeit it also froze once). Sorry. I want to use GNOME for my gamedev but I'm a RAMlet
>>108876541That's an entirely reasonable position here, GTK2 isn't even shipped anymore with a lot of distros
No, it doesn't matter if 99% of your city voted NO on data centers, or that the officials you elect are supposed to represent you.Data centers arguably are more important than the needs of the few, primarily, the citizens. It's extremely important for the US to compete with China, and the US can't do that without having data centers everywhere. The country as a whole matters more than what citizens want.Sorry, but if you don't like data centers being built right to you, or even on top of your property, where you're being evicted from, because it's closer to a fresh water source with power lines connected directly to it, then you should move. Don't like data centers? Then move.
>>108882348Sure, go back to 1993 state of the internet, moron. If you want all the perks of today's internet, data centers are needed. Don't be a brainlet if you can.
>>108882581YOu are a lying sack of shit. We had no almost no data centers. No cloud servers. no of that shit 10 years ago and the internet was better than ever. People don't want cloud storage. They want fucking hardrive and PCs. They want you to fuck off and die.
>>108882608i want cloud storageokay not really i don't in fact i just got another 14tb hddbut i do want ai
>>108882608>>108882661also >10 years ago10 years ago was 2016 there was all that stuff 10 years agoplenty of cloud storage in 2016 lol tons of it we were more than deep into the cloud eramaybe 2006
>>108882671It's a scam. They want the computing and data centers for spying on us and running their AI algorithms. None of it benefits us. Not a single bit. Cryptomining was also a scam probably running CIA proto-AI shit back then
what did he mean by this?
>>108880245no children fucked in the assssssssss

because pc components have standardized sizes and this is unnecessary
>>108879977>>108879977yes they do, it means case can have 30cm depth or 40cm depth depending on your parts>mATX motherboard is 25cm in "depths">when GPU is installed onto that board, it can be anything from 22cm to 38cm (I'm not sure what is the longest ever recorded card?)>even some sound cards could reach at least 25cm back in the day, probably today there are none thoughso you are not gonna do anything with 40cm depth if you dont have cards that are longer than about 27cm or so, because motherboard cant go more into the wide department than 25cm which is standardmATX is infact 24.4 cm x 24.4cm
>>108879935
>>108879935Some ITX cases have a few configs you can switch between, allowing you to trade, like, CPU cooler height for GPU width (in a dual-chamber case).
Whats the point of programming? AI can build anything. I just made a spotify app and a website with ai.
>>108877865you could've gotten the same functionality by just using the spotify appyou could've cloned some open source spotify client and paired it with some open source front end and customize the layout and functionalities in a few hoursbut now you get to vibe code your own client (probably using the same open source code either directly or indirectly) that may be moderately functional but will require constant vibe maintenance to keep up until, one day, maybe it works most of the timewow amazing progress!
>>108877865>I just made a spotify app and a website with ai*you* didn't make anythingyou phoned a corporate slave robot and asked it to do do it for you for an undefined price
>>108878248>It can't program something that doesn't exist yetblatantly false. unless you're doing research on some new algorithm (you're not), most of programming is just gluing pieces that someone else made together anyways, or building your own piece to glue to the others based on pre-existing work.

I find it sad that people legitimately still use non-self-hosted search engines.But oh well, at least they do not pay for mid-tier engines like Kagi.
