>>107563812because the discs rot
>>107578560disc rot is a specific manufacturing fault that only affect certain batches of certain discs. it's not something guaranteed to happen to any disc
>>107565527Are you fucking serious? Hdds as long as they dont turn they last a life time. I have dozens of old hdds dating from 10-15 years before, even older. As long as you don't keep them hooked up they just stay cold and stable
>>107579320hdd's are great for just an occasional backup update. i keep my roommate's machine backed up on a 500GB drive that's so old it has a molex connector next to the sata one

Is this the right thread to ask for microphone advice?I recently got picrel, but I'm finding the desk stand to be way too short. I'm thinking of getting a taller adjustable desk stand like a Rode DS2, or maybe a mic arm, but I don't want something too big and bulky.
FUCK
>>107579333Anyway... nice trips. Any recommendations for an HD650? Yes I already taped it up and it still works fine...

did this after the built in cooler fans shit the bed, works alright. i did the middle zipties around the gpu as well, makes installation a bit harder but still fits in

Time to find a new backup browser>Third: Firefox will grow from a browser into a broader ecosystem of trusted software. Firefox will remain our anchor.

>>107574641They said this today on Twitter/X"We deeply respect the philosophy of Mozilla and our users: AI in Floorp should always be optional.While we prioritize providing the best customizability, any AI features added will strictly remain opt-in. We are not aiming to become a "modern AI browser." Our focus is on maintaining existing features while simply adding more choices for you."

the model they're using isn't even good
>>107565378You’re right, they’re playing fairly by the rules. EU companies just couldn’t pivot quickly enough because they’re ruled by unions that mandate six months of vacation a year and 25-hour work weeks.

What the fuck is the point of these? Who has ever used the right side modifier keys for anything since the invention of the personal computer?
protip: you can use something like autohotkey(if your keyboard doesn't supoort macros) and bind left ctrl + any number on numpad, or alt+. You can use any macros, shortcuts, etc. downside? you have to move your hand from the mouse.
how else am I going to type śńć and so on?
i don't think I've ever pressed right Shift in my life

What Thinkpad should I get if I'm basically just looking for a very cheap writing laptop? It basically just needs to be able to run windows, scrivener, and the choicescript IDE. I'd like to get something that's like $200 or lower but if I have to go higher I will. Battery life is somewhat important, internet access is not. I have a main computer elsewhere but I need a cheap laptop for the shitty apartment I'm moving into.
>>107578258You can find cheap thinkpads from 5 gen ago at ebay.
Any Thinkpad niggers here tried out the Legion series?
>>107578622NoIs your pic a 13-14 inch machine?Looks pretty nice in that case.
>>107578258T470, T490 or T14G1.Make sure it's an IPS panel and ask the seller about the battery condition.
If you're using the script version like I am, replace !((el = $('#t-msg')) with !((el = $('#t-msg, #t-task')) on line 6673.
!((el = $('#t-msg'))
!((el = $('#t-msg, #t-task'))
>>107578833it doeshttps://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/7750-4chan-x
>>107578935That's for 4chanX, not 4chan XT blind chama.
why use xt over xx already fixed
>>107579007xt has more cool features. With 4chan-xt, I can drop or paste an image into the quick reply form, and if it's a .webp or too large or something, xt will convert and resize it automatically. Unless something changed in 2025 and I missed it, x can't do that. As for the captcha, it's a trivial matter to make a small edit to the xt script, like OP did.

4 years ago a popular python cryptography library started requiring Rust.
>>107572757Mark my words, this time next year, /g/ will be espousing the glory of Rust like no tomorrow.
>>107563330>gaining organic tractionEspecially when corporate backers said years ago that they'll spread it whether people want to or not. When they started paying OSS project maintainers to use Rust -- or threatened to replace them with people who did.
>>107562658Honestly, python libraries are such a fucking joke, just write them in C or rust if you want the library to not take hours to do basic shit with how fucking slow python is...At least npm packages are made in javascript themselves.
>>107562658Good thing!
>>107574283>or threatened to replace them with people who did.source?Also I hope you aren't a cuck licenser and use AGPLv3+NIGGER so nobody can threaten you with anything.
