How do I replace a screen on T60p?I can't find a replacement screen unless I pay like 500 quid for one for some reason which I'm not gonna do obviously.Is there a place for replacement parts in the UK that doesn't charge half a grand?Could I use a T60 screen on a T60p?Is it a straight forward job?
>>107839390I got one on eBay but that was years ago. Shipping would probably be horrendous. 14" or 15"?T60 screen will swap in just fine.
>>107836819no one huh
>>107836819Buy a new battery.
>>10783944315" I think but that's off the top of my head there is a T60 I can get I just didnt want to wast money on an incompatible part I'll probs get it because my thinkpad is just lying around getting dusty since I sat on it and broke the screen lo.
people are starting to forget that Windows actually was good a long time ago, it has been 13 long years
>>107820326>13 years since Windows was goodLook, I like 98 as much as the next guy but you have to admit that XP is simply better.
>>107820326For it's time. Good for it's time. Wouldn't be good now days though.

>>107838991Yahoo died in 2000, though? Google ate it's lunch, the only reason people used Yahoo (before G-mail) at that point was e-mail and YIM/instant messenger if they weren't on AIM/AOL's.That and: >>107839405

>>107836442Once you have it all, you have nothing, back when I was a kid I used to be obsessed with computers and upgrading from one shitty GPU to another shitty GPU felt massive and adding more ram unlocked new possibilities, now that I have a pretty beefy PC, I don't feel like upgrading because it runs everything I want, I literally don't care about new hardware because it doesn't offer me anything, modern games are all shitty slop not worth playing, modern windows is a bloated clusterfuck made by jeets and modern hardware is a joke, an expensive joke thanks to AI, crypto and manchildren
>>107837899I got really into overclocking when I was a teenager because of this, I couldn't afford to upgrade so had to squeeze every last drop of performance out of what I had. Now I can just buy the fastest thing possible without really worrying which just results in the computing equivalent of anhedonia.
I hung wire in a tree to make an attenna today, and it brought me more sense of accomplishment than the last 7 years of corporate work
>>107839080Can confirm, setting up a mountain radio the other weekend made me feel like a rocket scientist
>>107836442>it has served me so faithfully>suddenly feel intense sense of loss>realise i had excised the soul from my pc completelyRight, many people don't realize just how important your monitor really is.Make sure to get a nice monitor, frens, cause it's the thing you're constantly gonna be looking at, probs for years.

WTF? I CAN'T LOG IN TO MY GMAIL AND STEAM ACCOUNT NOW!
start using directory opus
>>107833276Well I can spray gold paint on a turd and it'll still look like a turd. So if it was possible to make it look non ugly, why aren't there any non ugly screenshots?
>>107838701because its all user preference retard, there are dozens of theme examples to start building around on their forums https://resource.dopus.com/c/themes/24I like the Neko one, picrel but I still use my own (im not posting screenshots)
>>107838762Cool
i think its unpopular because they're so shit at marketing itif you have never used it and you see some screenshots you just think "so what? 50 bucks for this?"this shit has a manual thats like 1000 pages and a billion scripts on the forum its the most autistic thing everthen you try to go back to explore and you realize how awful it is and you cannot live without opus
>>107839455It's one of those niche products that markets itself. Those who need / like it will have it already.

How is your hack going this week, anon?
>>107766771
>>107836411Pop over to >>>/diy/ham and read up on the FAQ and library there, link in the OP txt. The FAQ originated on /cyb/ nearly 10 years ago.
>>107837680Is it too expensive to start? And what types of fun stuff can you make with that?
In true cyberpunk mood I am heavily depressed. DO you take any medication, anon?
How come C# isn't more popular when it's basically Java but better? Is it because people distrust a language maintained by Microsoft, or does the JVM have non-obvious but crucial advantages over the CLR?
>>107838989What do you mean by "ENTERPRISE status" and why does it matter?
Dotnet being proprietary and single platform prevented me from having the motivation to learn it. I only did that after they released and ported core. A language isn't useful to learn or write in if computers can't execute it.I imagine I'm not alone in this. C# has existed for a long time now but I think wider spread adoption was stunted by its closed begining. So they have a lot of catching up to do in that regard compared to other languages like Java.Which is kind of frustrating for me personally because I really like PowerShell and wish I had learned it sooner. Although the utility of it and what I appreciate today is only related to the modern versions so it wouldn't have mattered then, it only matters to me now. But that means for like a decade I put 0 thought into their entire ecosystem of tools, languages, libraries, etc. and contributed nothing to it myself. I imagine some other people have had the same kind of experience.
>>107839022>What do you mean by "ENTERPRISE status"Big corp backing.>and why does it matter?Less risk of a rug pull. Bean counter approved.
>>107834381The only times I see C# being used is in video games because of Unity

>>107839278There are more companies outside of FAGMAN anon. It's not over yet
I'm at the position where I am training my outsourced replacements so I am just going to make myself comfortable here
>>107839403These retards honestly believe that any work outside of FAGMAN is slave labor. The irony is if they ever did get hired to work for FAGMAN, they'd be worked like slaves and living in tents inside their heckin' epic open layout office space.
Every idea I have has been done 5 times now. It doesn't help my only ideas are types of social media, and I'm ready to just give up because no one gives a fuck.Seriously though, is there any point in trying to become successful? I could just build stuff that makes me happy and I can feel proud of, instead of caring what others think and stress myself out with users.
>>107838014>Every idea I have has been done 5 times now.That means it's a good idea, as it has succeeded several times already.>It doesn't help my only ideas are types of social mediaSocial media has the chicken/egg problem. You need new users, but nobody is joining because the place is empty.>Seriously though, is there any point in trying to become successful?The system is rigged. You can work hard to become successful, and maybe you will be. Someone else can just go to the bank, get a pile of tax free income called a "loan" and just buy success.
>>107838014Is your idea to make some big multi million user application? Well of course it's going to be done to death. Big corpos have a monopoly on that sort of thing. Return to tradition with the old internet way of doing things, just make websites for things you like and for small communities you want to cultivate. Fuck mass appeal.
>>107838549I don't try to compete with big social media, but even a niche community is a PIA to moderate. Being a janny is a huge toll on mental health and anything I build must either be zero moderation effort or have an extremely high entry barrier to post. I already have some ideas but it's just so demotivating knowing a functional site won't get me a job/secure a good future because literally nobody gives a fuck! HR karens don't care what I learned and what I'm capable of
>>107838014If you want users, you'll have to target the audience of short form content. Under 1 minute, and jumping from one video to the next, minimal permanence with nothing being memorable, but the majority love it, so that seems to be the future.But if you don't want to moderate, then it'd be best to sell the tools and services of an opportunity, rather than deal with that headache yourself, assuming then that there are enough people with a vision out there to know what to do with your software tools.Regardless, finding success alone is near impossible, and working together with someone is a must.
>>107838169>degeneracyNah you just have bad taste.
With the current state of the PC market I’m thinking of buying Apple, I know the M4 is powerful but how is MacOS? I heard Tahoe is shite but haven’t looked too deep into it.
>>107839246Is that the highest end model? That's like 30% slower than the M4 max and I know the 395 is around the same. (The 470 is irrelevant because AMD is skipping the high end this gen, again, for whatever fucking reason.)Also snapdragon being almost competitive is surprising, too bad it's about to be eclipsed by M5 max and will also have zero software support outside of a dysfunctional windows port

>>107839362This doesn't have any of the cpus announced at CES, stupid faggot.
Good morning, it's Monday again, dear friends. It's time to make sure that the global chain of supply won't break, while babysitting the 10x "coders", who will ticket their c# and java code to our networking team.

>>107839288Bad for you.>>107839292Ok pooner. It looks like a she so it's not for you.>>107839296Sadly, it's a part of the critical supply chain.
is this the protogen thread?
>>107839466Yes
they must never know the real reason ram is getting so expensive
IPS or OLED?
>>107839187That's fine, I liked plasma
>>107839192Then just get a plasma. Basically SED.
>>107821187Whatever that is cheaper as long as it's not a fucking VA panel.
>>107839200In terms of visual performance and quality to price, OLED.
>>107836107Nvidia's "G-Sync Pulsar" monitor at CES was showing off adaptive brightness & color as if it was a high end feature. So maybe it'll become more mainstream? I agree that's bizarre that it's a standard feature on phones, seen on some laptops & yet absent on desktop monitors.And while I'm complaining about the lack of feature parity. How is it my laptop can turn on it's display in half a second & yet my desktop monitor takes multiple seconds with a stupid brand splash screen before it'll display anything at power on. I know it's a small thing but the amount of times I've missed a startup message during this time window is galling.
