FOSS programmers work for free. Why?
>>107698680Thanks again boss. What's on the docket this week?
>>107698632Wait really? I was told they're paid as much as 4chan janitors.
back in late 2020 I was miserable that GIMP couldn't outline, gloss and bevel text like 90s commercial software. Now I can do all of that effortlessly without breaking a sweat
>>107698632A lot of FOSS programming is done by paid corporate employees.
>>107698632FOSS is like handcrafts that's easy to distribute. I bet there's some hobbyist brewers and carpenters who'd love to share their work for the joy and utility their craft provides for their local community.
What exactly is the point of libreboot?
I'm a little confused about it.I thought Libreboot was deblobbed coreboot, but it isn't.That's canoeboot, which is a fork of Libreboot.So what is the point of libreboot?
>>107695906free as in freedom BIOSit also lets me use any wifi card I like in my laptop
>>107698186>>107698200>its realweb.archive.org/web/20211010235840/https://vimuser.org/littleleah.html
>>107700281It's actually free as in beer, and your wifi cards are free as in not free in any sense of the word>>107700352Why did I look
>>107700352Dude what needs to happen in someone's life to have them obliterate their junk like this? I did my fair share of gooning but I'd never think about domething like this.

>>107691413Yeah. And the homo above you in particular has a keyboard case that has slabs made out of different metals that you slot in and can swap out, for whatever reason. It's some of the most mindbogglingly retarded shit to obsess over.
>>107699563Happens to me with meme switches
>>107700164>Fuck Cherry switchesI used to be like that too, lol. Heck, the majority of people are like that, growing up with Cherry, then suddenly hating them, moving on to clones, and now going back to Cherry
>>107700390Which keyboard is that?>>107700435It's a meme. My Gateron Smoothies are infinitely smoother and more reliable to type on. The Cherry switches rattle so damn much it screws up with my touch typing feedback. I keep feeling like I'm pressing some other key because they all RATTLE.
>>107700516>It's a memeSure, anon, sure. It’s your keyboard, so do whatever you want with it. I’m just saying the majority of high-end people are using cherry for a reasonI used to be just like you

When is the AI bubble going to pop? This is taking too long.
>>107696032I think that's been the case pretty much since the beginning. There was a grace period at the very beginning when it was cool for a normie to draw something without any talent or write a blog post in two minutes. But people quickly realized that it was pointless and that it was actually full of errors and ugly. Literally no normie uses the AI tools available right now; they're only used by tech industries to sell shit sloppa. And the entire industry is artificially kept afloat by microsoft and google.
When investor appetite falls enough that free cash stops flowing into AI labeled startups. For this to happen the people funding the bubble (Enterprise boomers who think ChatGPT is God, Wall Street Finance bro retards, Oil Sheiks, Retail chasing FOMO, Korean pension funds) needs to stop buying equity and credit of AI startups. Once AI startups cannot service their debt, the data centers don't get paid, the data center debt doesn't get paid, forced sales are triggered, nvidia doesn't get paid, oracle can't service their debt, microsoft scales back investment out of caution, same for google, meta defaults on its AI venture debt, panic selling of equity begins, AI related debt is marked to near zero and becomes impossible to refinance, AI startup stakes marked down to zero, their debt becomes worthless, banks mark down their stakes, they are forced to sell, funds get margin called and are forced to sell, Elon buys XAI from his sandnigger investors for cents on the dollar, Altman moves to Israel to give Ted talks, the FED starts quantitative easing. And then we move on to the next grift.

There's something really demonic about contemporary technology and im not even a luddite...
>>107700335>contemporary technologyIt never used to be this way.There was a time when you could buy something and it would work, it wouldn't require over the air updates because they shipped it before it was ready in a desperate grab for more money.The crux of the issue is the "I'm not doing anything wrong" mentality.Each iteration of removing control wasn't met with resistance. It was reward with purchase. Then reinforced with future purchase. I don't care, I don't have anything to hide... X feature doesn't impact me anyway... etc. etc.Fifty or so loops later... here we are. Some folk have notice the noose tightening and are starting to wriggle.As opposed to not standing on the swinging platform to begin with (and paying for the priviledge).
If you are against the development of AI, you are the antichrist. It's that simple.
>>107698982I never thought I'd be nostalgic for Mitt Romney. But here we are.
>>107698917Why does he always look like he has a rampant fever? He’s like a moist C3PO. Anyway, I’m not against the development of AI or even LLMs at all. What I am against is the push by corporations to cram genAI into fucking everything when it’s obviously premature to everyone. And also the hyperscalers are fucking retards, they’ve literally trained on all data they’ve managed to scrape from the internet and getting diminishing returns but are still larping like this is the road to AGI when it’s clearly just fancy autocomplete.
>>107700458>Why does he always look like he has a rampant fever? He’s like a moist C3PO.Cause he takes regular transfusions of teenage boy blood.Dude's literally trying to become an immortal vampire.
>>107698917https://www.youtube.com/shorts/0NkYxjE23JA
>>107700486All these "eternal life" billionaires (like that Bryan Johnson fellow too) look so extremely sick and weakly it's unreal. It's almost like taking a bunch of chemicals and additives and obsessing over nutrients and doing blood transfusions etc. isn't all that good for you after all. Anyway, what happened with the gay lover guy that he threw off a balcony, why was that hushed and never properly investigated?
i'm sorry, but am I not paying for 230V? why are you taking my money and giving me 217V?
>>107697992I pay for 230V and get 250-255. I guess that's where your volts went, dude.
>>107697992>but am I not paying for 230V?You're not, really, no.
>>107698553>measuring the voltage without a load
lower voltage is good for you because you pay per kWh and the lightbulb will now consume 0.054 kWh vs 0.06
>>107700089You and op are dumber than the dumbest gorilla nigger to walk the earth.Your power from the outlet goes to your house breaker panel, which is shared across your entire house, then that goes out to the power pole and over into your local power transformer, which is shared with your street or block, then that goes along some 10kv or so wires to your local substation, which is shared with your entire neighbourhood or more.Everything is under load. You can never raise voltage higher than the source, so a load in your neighbours house is all the same.There are two issues.1. Power factor overall across an entire city is fucked, which can lower measured rms voltages using a known load like this2. Reliance on cheap electronics can cause inaccurate results.If you want to measure your power at home accurately, use an oscilloscope

>>107699380Incomparable to endgame.
I bought the top pros cause I was getting the itch. Are they comfortable for medium ears? That's all I look for in iems nowadays, just how long I can wear them comfortably.
>>107700360uncomfortable for anything but larger ears, they're big like the tea pros
why do normalgroids like phones so much?it's just selfies and slop. it's so fucking retarded.
>>107698905Also>cramped and typically low quality keyboardI don't get the appeal but then I don't travel much and I work from home
>>107698802they are brain-dead cattle
>>107698802Whats even worse that this is corporates forcing you to use a smartphone app to use their services. My fucking bank doesnt allow me to log into my online account with their card reader anymore. They want me to download their stupid app and have access to my life savings at all times.Anybody can just point a gun at me and force me to transfer all my money to their bank accountNo thanks.

Notice how the only thing Rust trannies refuse to re-write is X11
>>107699819cont. I missed the answer on this:>>107699502Observe how the argument wasn't that C++ has a better type system than rust, but rather, how Rust adds more of something people don't want.
>>107689402Dependence on cargo makes it less reproducible, and, in conjunction with Mozilla's copyright policy, less free. It's a good language in a vacuum though.
>>107688773Now I'm wondering why "init freedom" types are completely disinterested in the RedoxOS init.
>>107691404Yes. You declare a function inside the struct that takes the struct type as the first argument and then you are able to call a method on an object of that type.
>>107695274Pretty much anything LLVM supports as a target. There's a full list in every changelog. The main HAL is microzig. Freestanding support is pretty good because the standard libraries don't really make any OS calls and all memory allocators are passed in at time of use.
What causes so many people to switch to windows 7?
>>107700236>>107700259>le heckin' nostalgerino>erm... SOURCE?
>>107700351Vibes then? If it was actually making some sort of comeback and it wasn't just some schizo shit you would produce something you sharty sperg
>>107699370Because Windows 11 literally doesn't workI wanted to switch to linux but I don't like the package system because it's too centralizedGentoo is probably the closest it gets to a decentralized system but it's not very user friendly
>>107699370WIN SEVEEEEEEEN
>>107700388You seem upset at the fact that people enjoy using windows 7

The GPL is legally unenforceable.
>>107697881You can't relicence freely distributed works. Retards using these "licences" don't seem to understand that they're very much permanent, there's no clause that ends the agreement.
