>there are people who still use BIOS over UEFI and turn off secure boot in the year 2025 on this board
What the fuck is your problem?

UEFI/GPT has been the standard for a decade. UEFI supports larger drives, boots faster because UEFI runs in 32/64-bit mode rather than 16-bit mode, handles initializing multiple hardware devices during boot better than BIOS/MBR, and supports modern hardware better than BIOS/MBR in general. Unless you have an ancient computer, it is almost certainly UEFI/GPT OTB.

I can't think of a reason to use BIOS/MBR if your computer supports UEFI/GPT.

I use uefi, but use the old-school text screen.

If new brings no benefit then there's no point in switching to it. Seethe.

It's definitely worth trying. There may be things that you customize that you didn't realize had been bothering you. For me it was being able to remove the "X" close button from tabs. Haven't accidentally closed a tab in five years now; almost long enough to forget I had that problem.

I bought years ago a Ducky One keyboard, cherry MX brown, I have noticed that the keycaps are quite fragile, is that a normal thing? Many of them break rather easily, I'm quite annoyed and surprised at the fragility of what I thought was a premium keyboard option.I try to put some tape to fix stuff, is this a normal thing for mechanical keyboards in general? Pictured is the H key as well that cracked like many others

My 2 cents:
Catalog search does not filter, it's just Ctrl+F
You can sort bookmarks in the bookmarks menu but not in the bookmarks swipe tab
Scrollbar is ugly and thick
Pic attachment is not I'm the reply area but it's on the opposite side of the screen
In the bookmarks tab, what's the difference between "unbookmark" and "delete"?
You can't swipe bookmarks away to unbookmark


Pls fix

So what's the deal with everyone hating on Rust?
The usual points people bring up are:

Start with C, then continue with C++, and then learn Rust. That way you will understand why Rust exists and what C++ problems it fixes.

C permanently cripples your mind. You will not be able to imagine something like a Lisp machine if you start with C because C lies to you and you will be confused about how computers work.
>>
>>107622537
You can spent lifetime learning C++ and still have a lot to learn. There is no point for that detour. C++ diverges from C by going into OOP direction while Rust goes into FP direction. Although they have some goals in common, the approach is very different and there is little gain in learning C++ before Rust.

>>107622694
If you can't do C you will have hard time with Rust. Rust builds on top of C while Lisp is a managed language that offers model of computation that is very different from how contemporary computers work.

Smartest man on Earth says so.

You can convert 4 Jupiters into pure fusion energy, and the Sun will still account for 100% of ALL energy in the solar system.

Stop spending money and human resources on making fusion energy possible.

well, where is your energy producing fusion reactor?
I'm not a Musk fan, but he's right. for how long has fusion been "50 years away" now?
also, assuming he's talking about datacenters in space: while I find that idea retarded on itself, the fact is that they could have sun synchronous orbits that can produce electricity 24/7, meanining they could have servers running all day long "for free". how is this not obvious to everyone?

>Song submission rules/guidelines
Upload the file somewhere, preferably in a lossless format, and post the link here. If you want to update your track, make a new post.
Include the song title in the post, and make it clear that your song is a submission for the album.
Optionally you may include cover art for your track, but please confirm that the image in your post is the cover art or it won't be included. You may not use your real artist name.
Songs that contain anything against YouTube's policies won't be uploaded on YT, but will still be added to the album.
By default, tracks will be normalised to -14 LUFS (integrated loudness) in the release. You may specify a lower loudness for your track.
Use of AI is banned. This includes AI generated stems, samples, and effects. "AI" includes all neural network-based models and not hard-coded automation/procedural generation. You are allowed to ask an LLM about music-related questions, but asking it to give you musical ideas (eg. generating a chord progression) is already a no-no.
