you "don't have time", you have "obligations" and "responsibilities"

Reality of the matter is that you would burn everything to the ground and find a way if you truly really loved it and found purpose in it
The true crux of the whole shebang is that you realized that the mindless tech exploration gives you no real world measurable outcomes
Yea, you can rewrite firmware, optimize the kernel, spend a lot time ricing the OS, but WHAT FOR? What's the end goal of all that? Nothing but superfluous circlejerking, or worse yet "for its own sake".

If you truly want to get back I suggest to you to make a dollar amount on your labor and hours and then "hire yourself" for it. Find some project that you might like BUT that will also be profitable and will give you back your man-hours of work.
And if it doesn't work out and you don't get your moneys worth? You did a reasonable R&D exploration that costed you some time.

It is never a good idea to dismiss or push away bad feelings, try to understand them and then integrate them.

Your demonstration of your lack of understanding of how frame schedueling works, lack of proof, and belief in your magic computer tells me everything. You're raped and I accept your concession.
>>107730984
>Then buy the same monitor retard.
With Wayland, you don't have to. And you get HDR, working multi-display VRR and proper frame schedueling.
>>107731448
There is a perceptible improvement to using HDR over SDR. You're coping.
VRR allows you to have complete frames with no tearing, no buffered frames, no stuttering.
Supporting fractional scaling is objectively an improvement over not supporting it.
I don't know why you bothered replying, you just raped yourself.

I did as well, Compared to today, it was astoundingly expensive not to mention this was still the era where in the US both incoming and outgoing SMS were charged per message or purchased in bulk packs as part of a subscription. It may not have been the data plan that you would have paid per MB like during the previous era or the massive expense of the pretty-much-only-corporate-subsidized-ExpressCard mobile data ,, but it was also a considerable addition to most phone bills especially as many were moving from flip phones with little data usage at all.

I have this chunk of HLSL to select which view matrix to use when doing point light shadow maps. in old code I had this if-else structure:

    if (xDot > yDot)
    {
        if (xDot > zDot)
        {
            axis = 0;
            component = positionToLight.x;
        }
        else
        {
            axis = 2;
            component = positionToLight.z;
        }

Are C++ compile times really that bad?

I'm eager to try it when it releases but don't have many opinions on it as-is.
The concepts don't seem bad and he's realizing them so that's good.
It build fast enough and can build useful enough tooling right now it seems.
And I like a lot of the meta programming and compile time features.
Waiting to judge the syntax and featureset too hard since things are unstable.
From what I've seen I remember it mostly being alright to read, and I'll have to see with some of the features if I actually like them or not in practice.

Technology has never been this user-friendly, it's never been easier to use a computer, even idiots and third worlders can do it.
The problem is that, at the same time it's extremely hostile to users, even if you're not using Windows the Internet and all the internet-adjacent services are anti-user and anti-privacy.
When was the last time a paid program or service got better and cheaper? It doesn't, everything is switching to subscriptions, those get more expensive, ads are added where they weren't before, features get removed and so on, and it's all unilateral, you have no say as they change the terms of the sale after the fact.
The only real answer is FOSS, even if you have to make some compromises.

You couldn't even install XP on a SATA HDD without side loading drivers from an FDD or slip streaming it in the ISO.
SP3 supports most SATA controllers out of the box, but that was not the case when back when the switch from PATA to SATA happened.

This is entirely what's going on right now.
The U.S. MIC and government is scared out of their mind that a runaway ai powerhouse in the hands of a foreign government could shift the reliance on U.S. data centers. Its the same thing that happened with crypto when foreign markets started building cheap crypto mining centers in the middle of Eurasia but this has the potential to spread internationally with it's outreach. Its the same old game of pushing your products to the third world and cornering the market before the competition can get it's foot in the door. Look at all the foreign governments that desperately want to get into the american market purely for the purposes of crashing the economy. China wants to do that on an international scale with ai while America wants to strangle the foreign governments around the world for the same reason. This explains alot about whats going on in the news beyond even the ai tech front. AI well only increase the level of sophistication and complexity that these economic mechanisms are manipulated.

>>107729979
No, you are implying there is some kind of bubble when the US wants this technology to advance. A bubble implies an uncontrolled economic situation.

>>107729998

they were tolerable on 15" crt monitors, or televisions, but as someone who lived through that era, 360p youtube never looked /good/. not even close, who are you kidding? it was worse than even VHS quality bit a wide margin. we accepted it because that's just what we could get given the internet speeds and compression codecs that were available, but compared to other media even at the time it was the lowest quality you could get.

Something I am very grateful for is my thousands of hours AI genning women's faces, thousands of hours watching porn, and constant exposure to "pretty faces" through social media. I am totally desensitized to normal girl faces now, and especially "conventionally beautiful" ones. I see all the simping over any and every dime-a-dozen non-fat (sometimes fat, even) woman as the farce that it is. It's a freedom I couldn't have dreamed of when I was a young lad.

I can still be partial to a foid, but with an awareness that I am fond of a simple creature, a mere woman, who has no special claim on my affections except that I offer them freely and willingly for my own sake or for God's.

I literally used sidestore on my 16 pro max and you are so full of shit. Sidestore VPN has been broken for over a month so you have to use a different one. And you still need to be on a WiFi connection and actively go into the app to refresh or setup a shortcut to do it which is annoying as shit. The pairing file will break at some point needing you to redo it using a pc before your apps stops working. The whole thing is unstable as shit and can break any moment. It needs you to constantly pay attention or you will lose your apps. Fucking lying shill

>>107732394
What you explained is straight up user error if you refuse to watch the video I posted that shows you how to sideload and install apps in the new way. instead of arguing why don't you use the link that I provided from a video from yesterday posted by the biggest side store loading YouTube content creator? If I'm lying why is he able to install an IPA and show that certificates are not being revoked? You just sound mad for no reason and it's okay we're only here to discuss about smartphones and you're taking it so personally.

Keep spreading misinformation because I have sideloaded on iOS for so long and know it always breaks at some point because apple will shut it down every now and then. It's always been that way.

Instead of attacking me and trying to insult me why are you not capable of having an intellectual discussion? Why am I posting links with videos and proof and you're over here spewing your opinions instead of facts? Is that how you have a tech discussion with people here bro?
