They just needed to shift the rural workforce to a urban workforce. They choked down rural survivability and replaced them with machines, now that they got them all under their thumb they want as much biomass as possible. The current direction is colonization of the third world, they need human vectors for that.

Don't buy anything other than IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad T, X, and W/P Series if you want the Real Business Experience™
Other business laptops are welcome in /tpg/ (Dell Latitude/Precision, HP EliteBook/ZBook)

Why ThinkPad?
>Used machines are plentiful and cheap
>Utilitarian design: e.g. mix of old and new ports, stable keyboard layout
>Easy to repair, upgrade (some models) & maintain thanks to readily available service manuals, spare parts easy to obtain
>Usable in cramped quarters thanks to the TrackPoint
>Excellent Linux & *BSD support

I think you are mixing up SSDs and HDDs. And no, there's nothing to worry even if you were using an SSD. The thing to worry about SSDs is *constant writing* that amounts to terabytes per week or so.

Geany is great for developing GEGL plugins. Better then that under 5mb of RAM xnedit I've been using. xnedit is great for larping as a extreme minimalist but Geany is still very light and easy to use, and also more minimalist then xnedit is "micro" that is in the kilobytes

also I noticed the name "Enrico" in that screenshot, that name is a associated with an alt right chud who's so call to fame was being called out by Torvalds for Covid Vaccine conspiracies, he also promoted nazi WW2 revisionism in 2018. While I do not follow Enrico I know he went on Byran Grift Duke's poddcast.

A book whose pages contain a dot sequence representing bits is the ultimate archival method. Store up to 1 megabytes of uncompressed digital data in a Letter paper format if using 600 DPI, and much more for an A4. Can be printed with any printer at home. It's trivial to decode and read, even a future cavema could fo it, if given an ascii or utf8 table. A 500 page book stores around a gigabyte of data. Not bad for a post-collapse archival preservation storage medium.

Why is Linux development centered around fancy UIs and trying to look/feel like MacOS, while the actual underlying system is a mess of 1970s code and bugs? Nerds will argue for hours about which "userland" or desktop environment is better, but scream bloody murder if anyone dares suggest that the core OS should be worked on. "It's open source, if you care that much submit a commit yourself" they bellow. Linux if the literal definition of sprinkling glitter on shit.

This is retarded. They could've gotten any supercomputer, or hell, a good computer, to brute force a polynomial.

>Hey AI, prove this simple, but forgotten conjecture true or false by brute forcing polynomials to prove or disprove this conjecture

In other words, say somebody used AI to find the newest largest prime number that has 1 gazillion digits. They could've used a superpower to do it, but they didn't and asked AI to do it, and now it "proves" how AI MOGGED the entire math worth and BEATEN and RAPED every math PhD out there.

There is a genuinely good argument this is because mathematicians have a bias towards proving instead of disproving famous conjectures (“if it were that easy someone must’ve spotted it by now”) so they never looked at such simple ideas, but I think the AI guys are really more interested in humiliation than contribution to the field.

Why is that these type of posts always claim that LLM models were casually able to solve complex math problems but the person behind the post is always directly associated with the company.
Do they think people are retarded enough to believe that any random person could have just burned 1M tokens to solve this and it didn't take trillions of tokens and attempts to solve it?

I was in the room when "they" (who shall not be named) started fighting over the failure to take out RMS with Covid (which they leaked) and the VAX (which they made). This was after they failed to take him out with literal cancer.
But then someone started talking about a plant Canonical had at Mozilla and some vague long-term "plan" which I didn't give too much attention at the time. It was only years later I came to realize how long the game "they" played really was.

why does everyone hate OOP?

I'm a codelet, only been studying Python for 2 months now, and so far it's been very comfy. For a group project we even made a simple drone show with Python commands.
But everyone always taks about OOP like it's the worst thing in the world.
We're finally learning Classes and it's... not bad?
I don't get the hate. you're just defining an "object", assigning traits and creating it's own unique internal functions.

you are conflating java with oop.
java's retardation that everything must be an object is a huge reason why oop in practice is as bad as it is. java programmers, aka rajesh patel and his 300 million cousins, worship java because sun has a jeet founder, and bring that retardation everwhere they go, namely c++
