What’s the proper way to measure your dict in bytes?When you size up a dict, do you care more about how wide it is (number of entries) or how deep it goes (what each one holds)?And when you need to unload the payload, do you dump it straight into a buffer, stream it somewhere else, or flush it to disk?
>>107827256thought we were having some sort of dict measuring contest here
Nigga stole that joke from 10yo StackOverflow post, btw.
>>107828593it's new to me
>>107826703>I turned my dict into a pickle, Guido!I'M PICKLED DICT!
>>107826703>MUH DICT
Why has no big brand succeeded in the e-ink tablet space?Huawei and Lenovo tried and abandoned their productsAmazon has the Kindle Scribe series but it's AmazonBoox has nice hardware and features but typical Chinese brand software longevitySuprenote is mehRemarkable is trying to be Apple too hard
>>107826750Amazon has succeeded bigly in the e ink tablet space
>>107828756Surely a reflective LCD still needs a constant supply of power supplied to it? That's the main advantage of e ink displays, and it's why they are showing up everywhere like supermarket shelf labels
>>107830644yes but it's fuck all, just look at watches and calculators
>>107826750>Why has no big brand succeeded in the e-ink tablet space?reading books is too niche of a market now. e-ink wouldve done numbers in 1995.
>>107826750if i want 7 inch, black and white display, asymmetric design, buttons, no android what do you recommend? I was thinking about old oasis, they are cheap used but it looks like they are unrepairable. Is pocketbook era my only real option brand new? there is few used eras and kobo libra on my local marketplace but prices are so high that i would be better buying something new. Running old kindle, works fine but blue light fucks with my sleep

What are some Paintdotnet-like graphics manipulation programs?I really liked Paintdotnet and the last year and a half I've been really missing it and none of the alternatives I've tried really do it for me.>GIMP>seems powerful but doing anything is asinine and feels like even the simplest things require me to do 10x more inputs and every once in a while it just won't let me do something and even after I read the documentation I might still not know why>Pinta>Really cool and almost what I want but not only does it lacks certain features or does them imo worse than paintdotnet it's also LAGGY as all hell. I'm on a middle-low end device and it runs slow whenever I zoom in or expand canvas above a certain threshold. For comparison paintdotnet runs like a dream on my 2010 low end laptop even when I'm working on something like 10k x 10k canvas with multiple layers.>Krita>Clearly made for drawing rather than image manipulation. Had some success but the situation is somewhat similar to GIMP.>VMing Windows>Runs awful.>Distroshelf>Have yet to try doing that with Windows and paintdotnet but I get a feeling it will shit the bed all the same.
>>107826495ati mean, at(1). on a unix system.
windows keeps resetting my fucking folder views for some reason so ive been thinking of switching at long last (to either mint or fedora i think) but i have a couple qualms- i do music prod stuff and use an audient id4 mkii. they provide no linux drivers so how fucked am i on that front?- i pirate all my games, multiple per week typically. can i even install them on linux? obviously the installers are executables and idk how linux handles that.ty frens
Can I make Firefox use anti-aliasing independent of my system font settings?

I just bought a galaxy tab s10 plus just for reading Manga and browsing the internet. What are some must have apps and whatnot for reading manga?

>>107827328This keyboard gets mentioned from time to time in /tpg/. Personally I want a 4" thick laptop with this as the base and the display and everything else in the lid with some bigdick hinges to support it all.
>>107827708I've been thinking about procuring a ThinkVision portable display to go with it. I just don't fully have a use-case for it. So I hold off. I prefer to save versus being overly consumerist. I don't know. I guess it's a right tech for the job approach.
>>107827328It's neat but>no numpad
>>107827945I cannot speak to that point. Although, my use of ten key on the shinobi is little. However, I would totally support Tex and procure any modular mechanical ten key unit, in the same ThinkPad style or aesthetic. I've seen a Targus and a Belkin stand-alone ten key, but it would have to match the shinobi. I might be a little consumerist if Tex released something like that.
Help would be appreciated>>107830566
If you want a tablet and also want to draw, should you get an iPad or a Samsung tablet?
>>107828973I have a tab s9 and while i would still choose it over the ipad (purely from a specs perspective), if you have unlimited budget an ipad pro is better. also ipados has way more and better drawing apps. android has krita at least so it has the most powerful of drawing apps, but the UI hasnt been optimised for android yet.

What is your favorite calculator?
>>107830650use case for use cases?
>>107830559yeah, but an fx991ms thread wouldn't be very exciting, would it?
>>107830668how is an android app in a calculator thread exciting?
>>107830654i agree. so there is no valid reason to own a TI calc.
>>107830708something useful in between all the ewaste adds some spice.
For the first time in a long time, learning/working is fun again.
>>107823943Gemini is the deal
>>107807740>that's right! you touched on a fundamental aspect of Xkek why it do that doe
>>107825892Words have meanings, retard
>>107829295Yes, and those meanings are more often than not, not static. They shift depending on culture, the context, how intelligent most people are, how wealthy most people are, etc. I'm calling you an autist because only an autistic retard (such as yourself) could ever view words so objectively and literally.
I get it to help me with stuff and to search for me quickly but sometimes it just makes things up. One time I was comparing graphics cards and it decided out of the blue that the Rx 9060 xt was a fictional card from a TV show so I couldn't buy it and would be better off getting an rtx 5060. Stuff like that really makes me take everything it says with a pinch of salt.
In 15 years the future will be us living in dense studio rooms constantly entertained by ai generated content in a headset that can fullfill your every wish. You can be cool kid in high school, a hero in a japanese anime isekai or a ww2 spy in nazi germany. If ur considering killing yourself wait at least a decade until virtual reality plus brain computer interfaces and generative AI converge into best thing humanity made. You will have heaven on earthmost of us are ugly loser incels who probably missed out on our youth. Never felt kiss of a girl or a friend that actually cares. But in a decade plus you can have friends who love you, girl who is infatuated and all ur desires granted.Im just crying realizing that heaven is only a decade away and anons don't understand this. Our god is AGI and he will create a virtual safe heaven better than any heaven human religion could think of. So plz until god descends onto this mortal realm to release us of our suffering endure it cause eternity of bliss awaits you
i bet they won't let you have a virtual hebe gf even though its legal irl in several european countries
Just another way to control the masses.
Always turn this shit off on a newly installed system. It's annoying.
>>107830406I probably should have worded that as "why does it need to allocate memory that is writable and readable". I'm not claiming to really understand any of this as I'm a nocoder retard. Is allocating memory that's readable & writable as bad as selinux claims?
>>107830457you need to ask selinux people for thatbut my personal guess is, if you have access to memory then your program can do its thing, because without memory programs can't do anything no? so that's why it's being limited
>>107830392execheap isn't about readable and writable memory, but about writable and executable memory. it should only be one of them. It opens up possibilities for (malicious) code injection. That's why the JIT is having trouble. It's generating code during runtime.
>>107830449>was discoered not long after it was deployed>quickly correctedThat kind of proves my point. There are millions of autistis out there in the world looking at the linux kernel and other OSS. If selinux actually had a backdoor like jia tan, i cant imagine that it would have remained hidden all of this time.
>>107830608A single autistic engineer noticed a minor performance anomaly during testing. Pure luck is the only thing that sabotaged a multiple year operation.

Why can't you find any good MP3 players today? I hate having to use my phone (which doesn't even have an audio jack) to listen to music.
