what's the point of using your own servers as proxies if they're still tied to you personally?

What is the deal with programmers coping that they won't be replaced by AIs
>>107848049"oh boo hoo, somebody is being productive...i better shit on them, since i'm a do-nothing loser."
>>107847983i'm billing $50/hr on 2 of them and $100/hr on the other.
>>107850227well, it's true i have not gotten into maintenance mode with them, but, the cool thing is that the context windows are huge and they have developed automatic ways of compacting the context windows, so i've been able to go multiple days before the ai starts to lose its mind. so, i think that maintenance mode won't be as difficult as it would have been 6 months ago. eg: they're quite good when you point them at a code base and tell them to read all the files and tell you what the system does; so i think maintenance will be pretty straightforward, even with new chat sessions. and re: debugging: what's actually been cool is it's like having another programmer at my side to bounce ideas off of, when trying to figure out what might be causing a problem. eg: rubberducking. but the ai itself can oftentimes figure out what the problem is on its own.
>>107850259wow, you're working overtime on being a retard.

why is brave so popular among normies? literally every irl normalfag i know has this shit installed and they always say the exact same lines like "this browser is better because it bocks ads by default" or "this browser is more secure and private" or "brave is better because it doesn't eat your ram and is faster"where did they learn this nonsense? they all look like brainwashed ignorants
I've used it for years only recently swapped to librewolf on pc and ironfox on mobile. It just works and I'll be honest I'm such a poor fag I enable the ads so I can get my 10p a month in BAT. But I got rid of it since on phone it moved the URL bar to the bottom and you have to select edit URL instead of just clicking it and I heard the company is gonna charge for a browser and I'd prefer to use a full foss browser. Some of the out of the box settings for librewolf and ironfox are a little OTT for the average user but after some tweaks they are fine. Most normies just use chrome or even the Google app on their phone they don't even know what a browser is I told my mate to use another browser to stop ads and have more privacy and he said he just likes Google so he thinks a browser is a search engine.
>>107849597Just be glad normies are kinda healing. Before id watch normies i know use google chrome and see 75% of every website filled with ads. Such an eyesore even if its not my machine im looking at. Now that theyre using brave thats not the case, just a clean webpage with only the contents loaded and no ads bloating up the screen. Im happy for them
>>107849621Imagine making technology decisions this dumbly
>>107849613getting adguard extension on your iphone would do the same shit for safari
>>107851996Not at all. PaleMoon doesn't even have pozz to begin with (biggest strength I'd say). Supermium is a 100% clean if you run it in portable mode with the --ungoogled-supermium switch (otherwise its more or less like regular chrome). On Android you get Privacy Browser which's a 100% pozz free and designed so from the ground up.

>>107805399>but it's baffling how they refuse to make simple changes that would make everyone's lives easierthis is unironically because of izzat. If they're perceived as a "hard worker" then it's le heckin good or whatever even if it means they get less work done. Bonus: they only care about being perceived as one, so if they actually get NOTHING done but blab about it all day and send a hundred changes (that do nothing or actively break things) they're still a heckin hard working +100 izzat good boy.

What would you recommend if there are files that need to be archived?
>>107852922just put everything in one folder. it's all an illusion anyway
>>107852937You're so real. But I'm talking about organization of a normal person that use his laptop for everything; from saving family photos to legal files and studies.
>>107852942Yeah, this was pretty much the conclusion before doing this thread kek.
>>107852951>hurr durr how do strangers think i should name my foldersmake sure to ask 4chan next time you can use the bathroom too, anon
man hierfurther than that I of course bundle files together by what they are. movies, photos, documents, receipts, scripts, work projects…

>>107852385Xiaomi build quality is absolute shit, I had two phones from them and in both cases the battery expanded the back panel glue didn't hold it for shitgot an s25 and never buying chinkshit again
>>107852423Guess the "bloatware" was literal there hohohoSeems like Xiaomi was basically "passable" around the time I had one and has only gotten worse since.My mom still has sa Xiaomi phone and they put a fucking shop into the UI, I think she also had some indian app that auto-installed itself and sent her notifications. My phone was draining battery like crazy until I noticed that the Xiaomi gallery app was draining 50% of it just by endlessly running in the background, apparently when it was a bug that would make it get stuck in a loop when trying to read a corrupted file.Now that I think about it I'm probably best off never buying Xiaomi again
>drawFaggot, you don't need to "draw," and you're shit at it anyway. Just use AI now like the rest of human population

What is better: a 14" or a 16" MacBook Pro? I can't decide. It's unironically too difficult to decide. On one hand, I would prefer the larger display, on the other hand I use my laptop exclusively when I can't use my PC to do something, which means I need a laptop for use around the house and carry it outside first and foremost. I absolutely do not want to use an external monitor almost ever though.

Other than for storing videos and photos taken with your phone, is there a reason to even need more than 256GB on a phone? People with more than 256GB, what do you use your extra capacity for not including the videos and photos you take with it?
>>107848973SPBP. New Micro SD Express cards would be so good for phones, but then they couldn't charge you for bigger storage models, or get access to your data you put on the cloud

Nobody wants to use their AI spyware copilot, so now they are forcing it into the file explorer so you have to see it every day. Reports that it will scan all your files/folders as you browse.
>>107852555https://www.techrepublic.com/article/news-leaked-windows-11-feature-copilot-file-explorer/>Microsoft is testing a hidden 'Chat with Copilot' button in Windows 11 File Explorer, signaling deeper AI search and a coming Agent Launchers framework. Honestly it seems like a big nothingburger. Another useless item when you right click something. The fact that it is even hidden makes me think they are losing faith in it but doomers (Shills in disguise) are trying to boost the news of a feature that will flop as usual.
With the way windows is nosediving, I think it's safe to say you shouldn't keep any important files on it unless you make backups (assuming you still use this dumpster-fire of an OS lmao) We're reaching the point now where its ability to keep data intact is now in question.
>>107852538Jeetmond just can't stop winning
>>107852534In b4 copilot deleted random files and folders I wouldn’t trust it
>>107852906Why do they do it though? It makes them look like a desperate and failing company, and in exchange for what? Maybe they get some accidental clicks from shaking boomer hands to increase copilot KPI slightly for some middle manager's promotion chart. It's not a big deal on its own, but it's a sign of a sick company that will make bad decisions in everything.
Why did youngsters decide to ditch this website all of a sudden? It used to be THE social media website for the longest time but almost exclusively used by boomers these days.
>>107852941Maybe because the normies heavily enforced that you had to be on normiebook otherwise you were a creepy freak so it was impossible to date or get a gf without oneThat was the case around the early 2010’s anyway idk about today

>>107852949Nowadays it's the same with Snapchat and Instagram, Facebook was the hot thing when I was still a middle schooler, they totally replaced it. I'm into college now, I've entered the nerd space (educated people) and barely anyone uses Snapchat and Instagram. Everyone is on discord, we have a discord for the entire major and everything is organized for each subject for each year, important announcements are for everyone, you can just lurk no one will hold it against you. First years still use Instagram though, but they fall off like flies because the major is tough as hell, proving that only dumbasses use Instagram or Snapchat.
