With tech jobs becoming ever more scarce as AI keeps replacing human workers, is trades the better option now?
>>107696310I already get up every hour to drink water and take a piss. I don't see stretching alone making a chair comfortable.
>>107695290>is trades the better optionFor vast majority of people, yes.>universitiesThats only good if you got high IQ and high ambition. Otherwise its just a waste of money. Trade skills pay living wage quite easily and your expertise develops with more time that it become very valuable
Asians and Indians with student visas where the university can charge the maximum amount. foreign nationals is where they make all their money, especially from China and India, hence why half the student body is foreign. It's a fucking grift.
>>107695290Always do the opposite of what the jewish-owned media tells you to.>>107695878This is true as well.

>>107693007you seem low IQ.>>107693086I'm impressed with it. I have it setup so it shares my characters thoughts while I game and right now im looting a shipwreck and she's talking about it in game. grabbed a book on using daedric magic to enhance my weapons and she made mention in her thoughts to look into it after looting this shipwreck. its pretty neat and adds a decent amount to the game and with being able to talk to the enemies and npc. mostly I enjoy how it narrates thoughts and tihngs going on in the world.

Also while I'm here, as someone who has casually used Mint since ~2013-2014 (Mint 13 was my introduction to linux) and never seriously tried anything else, what actually IS the difference between ubuntu and Mint? All this time I thought it was basically just the desktop environments, but then I realized there's xubuntu that is just ubuntu with an xfce desktop environment, which is what I used on mint. So why is mind different?
>>107696820that's linux standard behavior
>>107696820Look into readahead(2)https://man.archlinux.org/man/readahead.2.enThere are some programs that can do this. Systemd used to but they removed it because nobody uses slow storage devices anymore.https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=Readahead&direction=prev&oldid=263704
>>107696871Apparently there is this which restores the functionality that was dropped from Systemd:https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/systemd-readaheadNo idea if it works though.
Hello everybody, Linux newbie here from this thread: >>107632798So, I have been using Debian, and now it has turned into my daily driver, that is, if I do not distribution hop again.I fixed my problem of not being able to use my audio shortcuts by using these:`pactl set-sink-volume @DEFAULT_SINK@ +2%``pactl set-sink-volume @DEFAULT_SINK@ -2%``pactl set-sink-mute @DEFAULT_SINK@ toggle`So, Debian has been very good for me, and nothing has really changed. I have not had any problems. I have been able to do some light gaming by installing Sober Roblox using Flatpak + Flathub.Like last time, any tips or things I should know moving forward with having Debian as my daily driver?
Had Logitech G305 - developed doubleclicking in a yearSwitched to CoolerMaster MM712 - scroll wheel started scrolling in random directions in a year, on top of shitty wireless connectivity.And the funniest thing is that I used $5 store brand mice before and all of them lasted me much longer than that without issues.Is there a single reliable brand of wireless mice that work and I won't have to pay through the roof to get?
>>107696886Soldering iron n a 50 cent microswitch is all u need fren
>>107696955I've never soldered
>>107696955FWIW, every time a mouse has started double clicking on me I've gotten away with just taking the lid off the microswitch and squirting a bit of contact cleaner in there.

XP was the beginning of the decline. It didn't crash as much as 98, but just look at the shit they piled on the Start menu. That entire left column is testament to where their corporate brain was heading.
Is lack of curiosity and responsibility combined with AI killing tech?
>>107683186Is this shitpost from LinkedIn? It is inundated with self-glorifying, humble-bragging between corporate drones. Boilerplate glow-ups and dick sucking. Companies themselves are guilty of every single point in this man's post: they take credit for other people's work, they are easily bored with technical discussions that have no corporate buzzwords, they are overly sensitive to criticism to the point of being petty and vindictive, they try to eliminate/offshore as many positions as possible and depress compensation, and they do not fucking care about their employees. I am not a zoomer, but I have no problem with zoomers taking advantage of this shitty system that rewards grifting and nepotism. This is just late stage capitalism: you reap what you sow. Why should anyone be loyal and hardworking for a parasitic corporation? Accelerate.

New version is out. Also, why was my previous thread deleted? This is a software-based application explicitly engineered for operation within the computational and telecommunications framework of a handheld mobile device, ok? It is therefore unambiguously situated within the broader domain of contemporary technological systems, infrastructures, and applied digital sciences, and as such relevant to /g/.

>Find an ancient SD card that was left unpowered for over 15 years>Still works>Still has every last bit of data on it, just like a decade and a half agoIs the whole "muh flash memory doesn't retain any data if left unpowered for a year+!" thing a retarded meme perpetuated by the spinning rust industry that we allowed ourselves to fall for? I get that it's an anecdotal sample size of one, but then again, all of my spinning rust HDDs failed after less than 10 years of use (also anecdotal, but makes me think).Kingston micro SD card btw.
Yeah same I found some SD cards last used in 2008 in a drawerTotally fine
>>107693006>"muh flash memory doesn't retain any data if left unpowered for a year+!"I'm pretty sure that if you buy a new SD card today and you leave it unpowered for like 6 months all the filles will be completely corrupted. Treasure your SD because the shit you can buy now is absolutely worthless.
>>107693006It was meme propagated by /g/
>>107693006i have never heard this. flash memory is non-volatile

Why would anyone every buy arm shit for work or personal computing? You're just fucking your future self. The ARM platform is a piece of shit that faggot engineers like
>>107693716from where? ebay fucking sucks and the only computers i buy there are overstock new shit or from retailers who actually use ebay like acer. amazon is way better for refurb shit
>>107696249The one with the broken flex cable was Bestbuy marketplace, straight from a refurbishing company.The other one with the Absolute persistence problem was bought from a legit store, equivalent of Micro Center you guys have in burgerland. Although it was refurbished by a 3rd party, not by the store itself.
Hey /g/, maybe you can help me here. What's the best gloves to prevent gamer gunk buildup? I recently changed from a 8 year old G610 keyboard to a G915 X keyboard simply due to it being easier to clean,as well as the G610 keycaps kept breaking, but mice? I don't trust myself disassembling them without breaking something. I've tried copper compression gloves but I absolutely hate the feeling of them when worn.>wash your handsI do. Maybe too much. I wash them any time I touch something slightly filthy, any time before I eat, any time I use the bathroom.
>>107692335You can also wipe the mouse
>>107693751Mousewheel. Wiping it down just cleans the outside.
>>107693896So how do you gonna use the mousewheel with a condom on the mouse?
>>107692335All I need is soapy water, a kitchen cloth and a toothpick. I clean my mouse around once a month and it's enough. The rubber that they use on mices is designed to fail because otherwise you would use one mouse for 20 years without buying new shit and that's not good when green arrow needs go up
>>107692335Invest in gamer gloves.
When is the AI bubble going to pop? This is taking too long.
>>107696032The fact that so many people think that there's a bubble about to pop means that there's actually no bubble at all, and the prices will just very slowly go down if at all.
>>107696614>Our tax dollars are being used to prop up this shit btwYou voted for it, so you shouldn't complain.

>>107686422It's worse than that. They killed off all the real stone masons and iron workers and boiler makers and etc. during a couple world wars and replaced them with factory jobs which were more geared toward specialization. Now you have a guy who can run a machine tool but there's no way he could build a part for it if it breaks.

What exactly is the point of libreboot?
>>107695983>her
>>107695906It's disappointing that Libreboot had chosen to make nonfree images, for the goal of supporting more hardware.The biggest danger to freedom is still the Intel Management Engine and it is not completely disabled on platforms with CPUs newer than Core 2. You'd have to trust Intel that the boot process doesnt do anything malicious.
>>107696255damn she doesnt pass at all on the photo on her homepage
>>107695983Absolutely retarded take. If you want classic Libreboot, then use Canoeboot. Modern Libreboot needed to evolve to include more devices. >>107696644It's a pragmatic choice. Fun fact, there is no way that devices like the X230 or T480 will ever, ever, ever, be able to run without some proprietary firmware. You people need to grow the fuck up and accept the reality of the situation on x86 CPUs.
>>107696983>It's a pragmatic choice.Exactly the same pragmatism that led to the arbitrary revision of the Debian Social Contract.>Fun fact, there is no way that devices like the X230 or T480 will ever, ever, ever, be able to run without some proprietary firmware. Which is why they don't get the FSF's RYF Certification. Why not take a look at something like the Talos II, which doesn't require any?The narrative that we simply *need* proprietary firmware is a self-fulfilling prophecy. The original PlayStation was built with hardware-backed DRM in mind from day 1, but thanks to the reverse engineering efforts by PCSX-Redux, it now has a fully libre bios replacement (which, as it so happens, has now been integrated into libreboot and canoeboot). Obviously modern configurations like those with Intel ME and AMD PSP will be much more difficult than a 90s game console, but that's all the more reason to take a hardline stance. I'm a little more hopeful about ARM devices in the medium-term than x86.
