PDF is just a container format for Postscript. Open up a PDF file in your favorite text editor, and you'll see that it's full of Postscript with bits and bobs of binary data in between.

Just further proof that all this AI hype is just aimed at CEOs. That's why they all try to cram AI agents into the form of an """employee""" and measure their efficiency in "number of hours it is able to work autonomously during a work day" instead of actually using useful metrics.

How easy is that to use? My parents use youtube a lot on the TV. While I already have a mini PC set up connected to the TV they still refuse to use it. I guess they don't like using mouse and keyboard.
I have a Samsung TV so that means I would need to get an Amazon Firestick to use it. I don't mind setting it up but if it's too complicated for a 60 year old boomer to use then I might not even bother.

>>107693065
Yeah on-device solutions exist, I was hoping that there's a way to do it on the network level.

I think it's quite similar to the default YouTube ad, and they can also queue videos from their phones like in the first party app.

would you still recommend it if i plan to install more up to date nvidia drivers than what 13 stable comes with? i know people tend to have opinions on stuff like backports

>>107694403
>how big of a problem is snaps really?
Not a huge problem desu. It's just hard to recommend Ubuntu when Linux Mint is similar in many ways but doesn't pull this kind of shit. It's not about Ubuntu being super terrible, it's about there being a better alternative.

>>107694581
Not that anon, but in my experience installing stuff from backports works fine. It's running a frankendebian, not backports, that requires more experience and willingness to debug.

>>107694341
Ew, I'd rather gurgle NEET girl spit who hasn't brushed her teeth in ages.

i like the idea of using Mint for some reason, but it's just too much jank for me (Cinnamon, that is).
no idea of how you guys put up with it

If you are a meow user, do you turn on meow-normal-mode by default in special buffers (help-mode, package-list-mode, info-mode)?? Though I understand its purpose I dislike the default meow-motion-mode.

Sick. The use of radio targets to link to other posts is an interesting choice, why not CUSTOM_ID property? Btw, the links at the top ("Refresh", "Catalog", and "Board List") are empty links. "Web" works.

>>107694926
>Btw, the links at the top ("Refresh", "Catalog", and "Board List") are empty links. "Web" works.
You're right.
They didn't used to be empty.
They used to be normal org links, but now they're buttons created by help:insert-text-button.

(defun 4g--insert-refresh-button ()
  (insert-text-button
   "Refresh"
   'help-echo "Refresh this buffer"
   'follow-link t
   'action (lambda (_) (4g-refresh))))

(defun 4g--insert-boardlist-button ()
  (insert-text-button
   "Board List"

If you're using OpenBSD as a server OS like it's intended you will probably only need 0-2 things from ports which can be easily chrooted.

Discord is free (for now) and up and running with a few clicks unironically.
It is the perfect solution to this for everybody.
Except for you, of course...

Oh and btw. ther will be zero backlash because 99,999% of people are content.

Rust is more suitable for low level bare metal stuff than for high level C++ usecases(GUI, video games, enterprise software)
What microcontrollers/SoC can you even compile Zig to? Does it have any HALs? How is the freestanding zig support?

>>107695274
Rust really isn’t, you should check it out yourself. Low level, critical hot-paths are way better in Zig. Honestly, the two are like peanut butter and jelly, milk and honey. Experiment with it yourself. I think it’s the future. C/C++ -> Zig/Rust

>(they solely believe that you will get magic internet aids after connecting old windows to the internet)
It's not magic, and the real world size and location of botnets based on winXP is well documented. The large stack of exploits are actively engaged autonomously in bulk. And it is actively sought for exploit.
Botnets made of win10 are on teh rise, too.

>>107692966
>installers are typically distributed directly by the software producer.
Yes, and the software producer could modify the files FOR YOU without modifying them for anyone else or leaving any trace. With a package manager like Arch's, the new files are available for everyone to see, and the developer has no control over your mirrors to coordinate targeted distribution.

>>107695209
your imaginary scenario implies the software producer compiles special packages and sends them to individual users

>>107695084
