Alright anons, provided you have plenty of money in the bank, what would you do in this situation?
>contractor
>get assigned new manager
>new manager wants weekly hourly updates and schedules a daily 1on1 meeting to control what you are working on
I'm thinking about giving it a try for a week, and if I don't like the tone and expectations just refuse to go to more meetings and ask instead for clear, written directions on any tasks he wants me to complete. I feel like I'm in a PIP and I'm a contractor lol, so it doesn't make sense.

>provided you have plenty of money in the bank
I would say no and stand my ground, document everything he asks for, and prepare a solid and polite justification for the time a higher up starts asking questions.

>>107010572
The best manager types I've come across so far are the "chill but can be cold-hearted and pragmatic" types who only put pressure on the team when he himself is getting pressured from above. They will mostly leave you alone.

Bought a new psu just to test my dead mobo once. The dimension size is different from my PC case so I can't use it for backup.

I dont know what its deal was either, AMD K10 CPUs were based and it was a 25w laptop chip with 4 gigs that performed nice when it was at the full 2.3GHZ, they even put in a 7200 rpm WD black drive with on a laptop is nice, I wish I knew about business class laptops at the time because even if I spent hundreds on a core 2 ThinkPad or latitude used on ebay it would've given a longer life, I only used that piece of shit from mid 2011 to late 2013

While this flowchart may not tell you anything useful if you are running Win10 in germany it, albeit unwittingly. conveys a lot of unintended information.

1. A multi trillion dollar company with tens of thousands of employees has someone in charge of a translation process who would rather use an energy intensive AI to translate a graphic rather than assign it to any native german spaeking intern who could do the job better for a fraction of the energy.
2. The result of this process gets published in their official correspondence to customers even though someone without any knowledge of the german language can see that it is a complete failure. Telling us that no supervision has taken place.
3. The only reason we are witnessing this profound incompetence is because it deliberately was made to be published. There is no reason to assume the behind the scenes works any better.

Everytime I read something about a Fortune 500 company it reminds me why I only invest in sub 50Billion market cap corporations.

I had to set my Xbox (yes, I know) to English because Dutch was machine-translated. "Save money" (as in a deal on the Microsoft store) was translated to "Opslaan" with means to "Save a file" instead of "Besparen". They didn't even add context to whatever they automatically translated.

There's probably some server use case, but since it doesn't have Bluetooth I cannot use it as my main desktop.

maybe it depends on the player, but i don't find the setup very complicated. i'm using mpd and the configuration is essentially this

  (require 'emms-setup)
  (emms-all)
  (setq emms-player-list '(emms-player-mpd)
        emms-player-mpd-music-directory "~/Music"
        emms-source-file-default-directory "~/Music")
  (require 'emms-info-libtag)
  (add-to-list 'emms-info-functions 'emms-info-mpd)
  (emms-player-mpd-connect))

Ubuntu Just Werkz™ on my hardware. It is a 2018 machine, but it works perfectly. Great battery life, too.
My main machine does run Winhoes, though, and is also more recent.

Not everyone is a commie bastard

Are Windows fags just mentally retarded? My girlfriend is a normie who's only ever used a Macbook her entire life and when I wasn't home and asked her to unlock my PC to find and mail me a document that was on my PC she did it without any issues. I was ready to painstakingly explain every step but not really, the biggest obstacle was dictating the password over the phone.

janny status?

It is not fake news and is not new.
India is moving away from closed-source OS for a national security reason.
I mean, Snowden made it clear that every single Windows and macOS machine is backdoored. You need to be a special kind of stupid to pretend it is not an issue.

HDD /thread

I'd say get an ORICO USB4 (AKA Thunderbolt) NVMe enclosure for $20 off AliExpress and a Samsung 990 EVO Plus. 1TB of fast reliable portable storage for $100. I'm not sure how well the phone/tablet will negotiate with the enclosure down to USB2/3 though.

I have this UnionSine MD202 hooked to my ASUS router with a 2 TB 970 Evo Plus, acting as a poor man's NAS. TRIM is supported. It's based on RTL9210B. The chassis is made entirely of aluminium, which is good for heat dissipation. When I plugged it into my desktop PC, I saw read speeds of 8.6 Gb/s. (I didn't benchmark write speeds because at that time I was more about testing my USB controller rather than the NVMe enclosure).
Can't say anything about reliability though. I didn't suffer "catastrophic data loss" yet, as far as I can tell, but I don't put anything important on it. It just holds my torrented media which I can always re-download.
Depending on the devices you're going to use it with, you may want to look for a 20 Gb/s capable one, but that requires USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 which is pretty rare. And you mentioned plugging it into phones/tablets, which even in this year often come with USB 2.0 so maybe it's not worth it in your case (also in mine because my PC's USB tops out at 10 Gb/s, and the router's at 5 Gb/s)

I am not surprised whatsoever. I feel like good audio is "solved" to large degrees and making something competent isn't THAT expensive. You might not get it in $10 trash but some of the prices charged on the high-end are truly ridiculous.

It's fucking vinyl there is literally nothing you can do to make it sound better anyway. Its fucking retarded to believe you can somehow magically get better sound out of it. However you can tell if you have a shit player though and there are good cheap players. What really gets me though is these fucking faggots that buy bluetooth vinyl players. WHATS THE FUCKING POINT????

If you are, any reason you order stuff from Ali instead of ozon? Same range finder can be bought there for cheaper and with faster delivery, not to mention that ozon always sides with customers over foreign sellers.
