people have character. if you like someone, you like them and everything about them. you don't go around and do plastic surgery to fix that person and give them lessons on behavior. my whole point was character. chop the fender, lower the car, ls swap it, lower the roof and add a hood scoop. boom done car is better. also not the car it was before.

yeah, it’s not the car it was before because it’s a different car. all cars would look the same if they didn’t have character. they would all be about the same size, weight and have the same power and would look the same. uniform. gray. boring. npc. you can paint it bright yellow and add a spoiler. you can give it 2000hp. it’s still an npc car. just an appliance. just there to drive from point a to point b. just a concrete block of nothing.

Ive been lucky to only use Win10 (with elevated permissions) on my work PC. I still use Win8.1 (lmao) unfucked at home while parts are rolling in. The laptop will be my testbed whether I stick with Win10 or manage to unfuck 11 enough for desktop use.

Yeah, again, have a look at other laptops that have the Ryzen HX 370, they're all gonna cost much more and all of them are going to have their RAM soldered. You might argue that a mini laptop will never need that level of performance, but you could say that for any laptop on the market. Yeah, thermals will probably be a bit worse on a housing that small, but thermals in laptops suck in general.

I will say that it is true that the Pocket could use an even weaker and cheaper option, but in that case it might be worth considering the Pocket 3 that has an intel chip as it's considerably cheaper. Don't know about the reliability and other aspects of the 3 tho.

And yeah, currently it seems they offer the Pocket 4 with HX 370 /w 32GB of unified RAM and the 887-something with 16GB, but as time passes, they run out of stock on both of them so you have to wait for the next batch

perhaps a stratefy is to make a social media that can't be gamed by bots
4chan has no voting system so that lever disappears for bots

being a ceo likely means being a platform, so there is no cookie cutter corporate structure there is only one role, initiator.

hashchan curtails spammers (bots/gov/pub-priv/corpo/shadow-bank) by having posts dag'ed in the ethereum event logs. There isn't any protocol or platform fee, just gas on the chain of their choice.

for those choosing to spam illegal content to shut it down, the network topology was designed to force what would be platform and peer liabilities onto the creator, just refences, hotlinks and self pinning and manual, opt in sharing

sure no one wants to pay to post, but now they are getting force fed slop in their highly containment controlled digital gulags. clear comms, cryptographically secured distributed archive and speech=reach is well worth the price - which is, i may add several orders of magnitude less than an x subscription and you get like 10's of thousands of posts

Beef prices are absolutely infuriating and they're doing it on purpose because beef can't be effectively commercialized like pork and chicken can.

Meat prices in EU have been getting ridiculous, and recently the same seems to go for fruits and vegetables.
It's still obviously less expensive to buy raw ingredients and cook stuff yourself but I'm starting to slowly understand why people are fine with slop food. If you look at the prices from an immediate point of view, the difference doesn't look worth bothering with cooking.

How can I tell whether two devices can charge from the same charger? Like I bought one that goes into the socket, with two USB-C slots in the charger, but if I try to charge two phones, or even a headphone + phone, it doesn't charge either properly.

>https://libreboot.org/docs/install/dell9020.html#graphics-cards-and-iommu
Can someone explain the implications of having IOMMU disabled? From what I read externally, it's used in GPU passthrough, and some game anti-cheat implementations make use of it. Regarding GPU passthrough, I'm assuming I won't be able to use virtual machines?

The information as I understand it is somewhat conflicting. The article mentions IOMMU being buggy, and disabled by default, and then shows how to go about enabling it via kernel options (parameters?). I'm guessing this bug is only present on boot, and can then be enabled via the kernel. Is that correct?

I plan on using an AMD GPU with this system.

Anyone have any experience with librebooted desktops that can chime in on whether there are any issues with using a dGPU?
>>
>>107623697
>How can I tell whether two devices can charge from the same charger?
Look at the charger specifications. It will list the wattage capacity and may even state that only one port can be used if a device is pulling more than a specific current. Adding to >>107623741, there may be higher and lower power terminals as well.

I don't think I've been bitten by the Rust thing personally because the few times I made this mistake I paid attention to the unused variable/shadowed match arm/etc warnings.
>>
>>107624479
That's a nasty bug and it's caused by being too compact/concise than what expresses user intent. The rust bugs are the same class -- you should require a bit more typing to introduce a new variable (Vs matching existing ones).
>>
>>107624542
Yeah, the syntax for introducing bindings is kind of a failure in general. There's also the ref specifier that you can use in unreasonable places and that has been soft-replaced by a special coercion rule since most people didn't understand how to use it.
This post talks a bit about the design process of variable declaration and how they favored elegant theory over pragmatism: https://brson.github.io/2021/05/02/rusts-most-unrecognized-contributor/
A simple principle like "to introduce bindings in a function body you must write let/var" would probably have been better.
(But in the end I still think it's a run-of-the-mill wart like you can find in every language.)
