Realistically, if the cube was worth $800 for the 1TB version would you be able to build a better PC mostly for gaming for $800 excluding used parts, discounted parts, and also peripherals?

>It's probably asking because you can.
pacman is not smart enough to check hardware compatibility.

>>107628195
Check out Distrobox. You can't just use pacman unless it's configured to only install into a chroot otherwise it will fuck with your system's packages.

>>107628403
Which is why he said "If your card is new enough". The reason pacman is asking is because it's basically asking you to make a decision.

Awful threads like this always seem to pop up around the same time of the night even on weekends This is observed on other boards too. Is it the Indians agains?

Here's the idea I have in mind

-When setting up computer/phone for the first time, you need internet access and digital ID + selfie to unlock. From there on you need a selfie to unlock your phone/computer every time and your face must be monitored at all times to ensure there is no identity fraud.
-Secure Boot with hard coded unchangeable keys ensuring only operating systems with compliant AI surveillance suite are allowed to run. This AI surveillance suite will monitor your screen contents in live time constantly and send screensots + snapshot of your face to authorities if it detects anything bad.
-ISPs will be required to verify your digital ID before allowing you internet access, and must store all your unencrypted traffic associated with your digital ID. VPNs will have similar requirements or will be outright banned or regulated to require licensing and special permission to run in niche approved use cases (still monitored though).

>He's going to add a borrow checker as an afterthought?
To be fair, he crated Hare because he's a C programmer who wanted C but with modern language features. He didn't prioritize memory safety while developing Hare, as the motivations for the language rested elsewhere. I agree that adding borrow checking to the language at a late stage is probably a mistake, but considering the direction of the industry, he pretty much has to make his language memory safe in order for people to want to use it for anything that is not just a hobby project.

Biggest issue I've had with it is training, if you're running in gear 2 there seems to be a bunch of shit that doesn't work as expected, I use micron 16gbit rev b, the kit is good for >4800mt/s, but I can't really use it at those speeds because if the cas latency is higher than 21 or trcd/trp above 23, it just doesn't post above 4400 period, if the timings are tighter than that it posts easily at higher speeds, this kit isn't that great so I have to keep the cas high for stability, or run >1.55v, which is rather annoying.

could be caused by bios retardation .but the bios is "mature" since its a z690 board, so idk, on my former am4 system never had any problems like that.

>>107628533
>if you're running in gear 2 there seems to be a bunch of shit that doesn't work as expected
yeah probably, if you're in gear 2 then that's different
i've never bothered to try gear 2, i run 4x8 micron rev E at 4266 16-20-16 in gear 1
wouldn't surprise me if that mode is half baked
>could be caused by bios retardation
gigabyte board? allegedly those are still trash for DDR4 on LGA1700
>on my former am4 system never had any problems like that
keep in mind that even if you're running insanely high speeds on AM4 the CPU can't actually push that many bits through the infinity fabric
you're limited to ~60 GB/s because of the 1900 FCLK bottleneck, which puts less stress on both the sticks and the IMC
same thing on AM5 where you're limited to <70 GB/s and you can run some timings unrealistically low because of that bottleneck

asrock board, got it very cheap so I can't really complain.

was on an apu back then, so i was running 2300 fclk. in 1:1 mode, It could do 2466(4933mt/s) but required bit too much soc voltage for daily.

so if a gl owie gets my drive he wont be able to boot on another mobo? my distro signs its kernel, but it uses the microsoft k eys.

yet another thread of a (((rando))) badgering you to use the lastest thing

>>107628039
that depends. if you're syncing your microsoft keys to their azure cloud, then the glowies can subpoena (or use their backdoor access) to azure to retrieve your keys. though even if you aren't syncing, if you're using bitlocker, bitlocker might have a backdoor built into its algorithm/functionality that the glowies can use, but this hasn't been proven yet, and the problem is that it's not auditable to the public.

veracrypt is open source and has been publicly audited. doesn't mean it's perfect, and it's not FIPS compliant to use if you're a glowie yourself.

if your threat surface are glowies, they will get your drive unlocked, even it comes to physical coercion. but veracrypt OR bitlocker will protect you against most other attack vectors. don't make enemies with glowies is the best advice there is. and don't do anything stupid that would put you in such a position. be a normie, abide by the law, and you'll be fine. whenever your threat surface is glowies, you've already lost. glows have infinite resources at their disposal and can do anything to you which will break you.

*) UEFI shits up the boot menu with their retarded entries. You need to fucking manually delete old entries from linux command line to clean that shit.
*) Replaces a bootloader with a shittier one. Legacy boot loader doesn't shit up the boot menu with entries.
*) It's redundant, sorry I prefer having a nice boot menu, especially if I have multiple options, for example having multiple kernel versions and a timeout.
*) Boot time doesn't matter.
**) With multiple selections you have a timeout either way.
**) You boot a system once in a fucking long time.
**) I remember times when I waited 2 mins for computer to boot. Current times are nothing in comparison.
*) Can't chain load another bootloader. Can't make an entry that will chain load windows so I have Linux and Windows from one boot menu.

It improves nothing. Adds annoying stuff. Is more complex. Adds fucking retarded partitions. Mounts a fucking efi vars. Allows for "bricking your computer" by allowing system to fuck around with firmware. I don't trust a system with updates and I DEFINITELY don't trust them with firmware updates. The firmware should be updated manually, by the conscious user that knows WHY does he want to update the firmware.
Secure Boot and TPM are anti-user features. Fortunately they are not needed even with UEFI boot. But still efi vars and firmware updates are cons for me.

>>107628039
forgot to mention there's also LUKS, but if you trust OPAL (self-encrypting drive that doesn't take a performance hit), LUKS2 supports this now (before only bitlocker did that). this was added in version 2.7 of cryptsetup in 2024.

so if you're using linux on a laptop, use LUKS2+OPAL support and you will have an encrypted device without a performnace hit.
https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/cryptsetup/v2.7/v2.7.0-ReleaseNotes

still, OPAL is closed source like bitlocker, so glowies can probably get your stuff. though, as I said before, if glowies are your threat surface, you're already fucked.

The fork from February when captcha was a bit fucky has let me post in some cases when standard kurobaex told me I was rangebanned before this recent captcha update, I wonder if any of the fixes actually did something or it was just the cointoss thing people are talking about

I've basically confirmed the range ban thing to be cookie related. I was getting it with the new update after a post or two. Only way to get posting again was to use mobile data. Never got the range ban with that. Switching back though would cause me to get the error again. My IP wasn't banned though as I can post from other browsers and devices. After enough posting and waiting on mobile, eventually I stopped getting 5 image captchas and started getting 3 image ones. Now I've switched back to my wifi and it's stopped throwing up the error. Now I've been able to post just fine. We'll see how long it lasts.

The bottom bar NEEDS to return. I can't use the search, open a thread then go back to the search results to visit a different thread anymore without needing to search again. I know every other Clover derivative app users clown on the bottom bar but the current implementation just isn't it. Plenty of us liked the feature too, me included. Pic very related, I've used the app fondly since they first replaced Google captchas.

To the other anons who're getting range ban messages try this user agent
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 10; K; wv) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Chrome/139.000 Mobile Safari/537.36

I had single row 3 image captchas at some point then usually 5 3 3, it randomly works again.

>>107628316
I've had the IP range ban appear and disappear two times with seemingly the same cloudflare check and captcha cookies, no custom agent.
First post that managed to get through after the last warning had an image attached, if it's not images doing some magical fix fuckery it looks completely random to me.

regarding pic attached, that's because victimhood sells like a hard drug. Due to evolution's setup Human brains are hardwired to label themselves as victims, its a survival strategy to speak up when you are being maltreated.

On the right:
1. a white nationalist calling themselves a victim of racial genocide and the white race is going extinct
2. a trump supporter saying their christian family values are under attack by leftist
3. the libertarian who thinks elites want him to live in a pod and eat bugs

On the left:
4. a trans non binary person calling themselves a victim of cis white heteronormative society's oppression
5. a women who in retrospect years later calls herself a victim of abuse for having consesual sex at 17 with a 22 yo bf.
6. a black guy who thinks cops are point and shoot happy out to kill him for fun

In FOSS community
7. Loudmouth Lunduke who thinks he is a victim of leftist in the FOSS community despite provoking them first.
