I did a small research (pics included) and I've noticed there's something strange happening with recent WD hard drives. For instance let's take a look at this 4TB WD Purple (WD43PURZ), the datasheet says it's CMR but if you look at the graph it behaves like SMR and TRIM is supported.https://files.catbox.moe/xdudsc.jpgSame applies to 4TB WD Blue/Red Plus models, all these have 256MB cache and 181 buffer zones (like WD Red EFAX) instead of typical 61 like normal CMR WD drive. https://files.catbox.moe/htn2k3.jpgLook at these 4TB drives - they all look like this SMR WD Red EFAX drive.https://files.catbox.moe/cz46vl.jpgAnd 6TB WD drives are also identical to this EFAX drive.https://files.catbox.moe/nd55ho.jpgSo WD is lying again like they did when they released their first SMR Red. Avoid all 4-6TB models, unless it's enterprise class (Gold, Black, Ultrastar).Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>106459760So just buy toshiba N300 (nas), X300 (performance), MG11 (enterprise) and im fine? These lines were always CMR.. hope they did not sneaked some SMR or semi SMR shit into them>Toshiba does not maintain an exhaustive public CMR list, but models not listed under SMR (e.g., N300 series) are confirmed CMR. Enterprise lines like MG series are typically CMR unless specified otherwise.
>>106470419all my hdds that died it always happened the heads started clicking and it was over. I think no smart test or surface test would detect the heads will off themselves in next few months
>>106473368stress testing a drive before copying all my shit is good enough for me. bathtub curve and all that
Just in case let me show you a difference between a pseudo-CMR (modern Purple) and a real CMR (older Red). See these dips in the upper graph? This is a sign of a 2nd layer translator activity which is used in SMR drives, it's static, but still exposes itself during small block writes. The lower graph looks much smoother.>>106473323Not sure about toshibas and the fact that the NAS/survelliance category which is designed for performance contains both SMR/CMR (even if they point that out unline WD) is rather concerning. But the MG ones are rock solid, if I'm not mistaken some of them are based on native Hitachi drives (not HGST). Also it's funny to see 512mb cache in some MG drives because in real life it's no different from 8mb cache, it doesn't improve access time or small block write speed.Another thing that bothers me is that It's just becoming impossible to find a 4-6TB 5400rpm CMR HDD, but oddly there are still decent 1-2TB and 8TB variants and nothing good in between. Back then there were great choices such as WD30-60EFRX, WD30-60PURZ, but for some reason they decided to stop producing such drives and intruduced a new disk family called Venice (that infamous first SMR Red was based on it), Instead of learning their lesson after getting caught they decided to double down and introduce a new type of advanced SMR hybrid which has special buffer zones that emulate a CMR behavior, a hidden 2nd lvl translator with a static module instead of just making a classic CMR drive. That's why these new 4-6TB WD Red Plus/Purple drives have 256mb cache (Purple even has TRIM), these are not CMR despite what the datasheet says.

Should I learn Rust if I'm normal?
>>106473881i thought that was a nogger but it's a different shape
I think a slight touch of the 'tism will help at appreciating the finer points of programming.That said, everyone will benefit from learning it and using it in a small project, if only to learn why their way of doing things sucks.

Is micro lag part of the acceptable visual quality in console or pc or emulation gaming now? My nes never micro lag once, my snes never micro lag once, my nds never micro lag once. Ps2 never micro lag once. Switch microlag, ps4 lag, xbox lag etc
>>106473011Except they do, like Gex Deep Cover Gecko, first hub world, near the waterfall with the army level.All Tomb Raider games, especially tomb raider 3 and 4.Future Cop LAPD, framedrops in every level.Ace Combat 2 + 3, Theme Park World, Driver, Tony Hawks Pro Skater 2 and the worst of the bunch, James Bond: the world is not enough.You clearly never owned the physical thing.
>>106473382even the nes and snes has lots of games which miss frames. it's not about the hardware, but the software. emulators often have reduced lag frames, so i do question if anon even used any of these consoles
>>106473382Dude, i own atari 2600, and it also run buttery smooth, and by the time, drop frame isn’t even existed. Every hardware build before windows 98 also run full frame, with zero drop frames and buttery smooth. It either run in slow motion or they run normal speed, but never drop a single frame.
>>106472820Get a better PC.>consolesHaha, you're funny.
People mistake framedrops with slowdowns with frameskipping with stutters.First console I noticed actual stutters on was the 360. Before that all I had was slowdowns. Today you have Zelda Echoes of Wisdom which, I don't know how there's people out there that can tolerate. We're talking about 30 to 60 back to 30 harsh framerate fluctuations. That's noticeable by just about fucking anyone. I have played a lot of SNES, genesis, PS1, N64 games with slowdowns. Not like this shit.
Why do jeet recruiters exclusively reach out about positions not listed on an organization’s career page? Are they just trying to resume farm? Do companies use this as a technique for setting up H1B requirements? Something else to it?

>>106473934i'm honestly astonished how these people manage to dox themselves so often
>>106473934OP here, yeah that's me. With a broomstick up my ass. You're probably wondering how i got here. Well, its a long story. It started in bootcamp cause the boomers told me to pull myself by the boostraps. So i booted my PC and some German guy came up on the screen with such a thick german accent I could feel the spit coming out of the screen. Something about Boot Loader and Mutexes. It filled me with furious raged I wanted to put a Boot to his face. It was too hard so i went into webdev and had to learn Bootstrap. Then i took a strapon and shoved it up my boot. Boot it wasn't long enough so i grabbed a broom.
How does 4chan deal with the schizo question now that the IP counter has been removed? I'm asking this genuinely because it seems like no one has a clear answer. A significant amount of engagement on this website comes from a small group of deranged maniacs constantly posting on cooldown every day. The moderators don't seem to have any issue with what is verifiably spam, so they let the schizos run rampant. If said schizos would just use a tripcode, they'd be indistinguishable from namefags, but they go out of their way to pretend they're multiple people when it's obviously one guy. To add on, interacting with these schizos and trying to have a dialogue with them is pointless. None of them are interested in establishing a motive for their insane behavior and just want to ruin 4chan for everybody. Lots of small generals have their own dedicated schizos, and in some cases (like /v/) it's impossible to comfortably discuss certain topics because the schizo will inevitably barge in and begin spamming nonsense.I can honestly say I'd be perfectly fine with 4chan being compromised by shills and bots if it meant the schizos would be dealt with. Someone paid to post here is just a useful idiot, and bots are always easy to spot. Schizos are a scourge and present a legitimate existential issue for the future of anonymous imageboards.
>>106473064Hiro doesn't care. Post quality doesn't matter, it's all about passive ad income.This is just a pet theory but I personally believe the obfuscation is to let shilling run more rampant and since most users here run adblock (or so I hope) then the best way to advertise is to spam threads and keep bumping them to fake engagement. You see this a lot with /v/ gacha threads that are often "disguised" as generic coom threads. They are the most inorganic shit but always hit bump limit thanks to gets tier posts and the like, but they are allowed to be constantly spammed despite the generals existing. And for the projecting retards: If you want to play these games and talk about it, go ahead whatever, I don't care. I'm only using them as an example. >>106473258Also this, but the problem is that there are a lot of impressionable lurkers who after reading a schizo talking to themselves over and over again might end up adopting their stance. So in a way it is sort of a lose-lose situation when it comes to increasing discussion quality.
>>106473965The point of an anonymous image board is whatever the bulk of the users want it to be. There is no cosmic law that says everyone has to behave according to your ideals. If you don't like soecific threads or posts, just don't visit them. I ignore the Apple shill threads, because I don't care about Apple products. It really is that easy.
>>106474088/v/ has always had porn threads and with the declined quality of games and general state of the internet and porn addiction etc it makes sense there'd be more of itthough I wouldn't be surprised if certain gacha companies do (indirectly) market on /v/
>>106474109Yes, you are correct, I just feel like it has gotten much worse. iirc some of them (forgot which exactly, saw screenshots in a thread) do marketing surveys for some meaningless in-game currency and they do mention 4chan in them.
>>1064730644chan has been dead for several years now.80% of thread (if not more) are initiated by bots or thirdies./g/ is a great example of it. It's 80% of chink advertisement & propaganda.

>>106473811It had very weird and convoluted licensing scheme so I stayed away from it. I heard iced is better anyway.For now egui was all I ever needed.
>>106473827Wayland code is very verbose. Win32 has a lot of 'wtf' design decisions, like how everything is a "window" even though we think of a window as a top level object, or the weird enums they use and their ambiguous behavior. But Win32 is more succinct than X or Wayland
>>106473827you have to write lots of boilerplate for wayland because its design mandates you maintaining a large state machine of the whole client state yourself since states are only delivered with events (for which every single one you need to register a listener for) and can't be queriedthere are also lots of restrictions on wayland that don't exist on any other window systemsin my library wayland uses 2x of the code to achieve the same functionality as win32/x11
I contributed a fairly non trivial code to a fairly large project which is very tricky to properly test. I said that I didn't test any of this and people are like LGTM but I doubt anyone actually tested/read deep into it/cross referenced the datasheets either. Just yesterday I found one of the values made no sense, I noticed it by pure chance.I guess we are testing in production now.

is .net trash?

>>106472222Sounds very hot in most climates.
What do you think about cyberpunk in gaming? Ever considered coding a videogame, anon?
>>106472222I am talking specially about urban usage.The videos of urban stealth camping are a small passion of mine.
>>106473851Same. Love me some fucking Steve, some of the silly shit he does is hilarious. Oh, this guy renamed his channel, I was wondering what his name was, I remember watching a few of this guys videos a while backhttps://www.youtube.com/@jarrodtoccitours/videosHe had some fancy ass stealth camper.The thing I always have issue with in stealth campers though is more of a personal taste thing for me - so many of them are open, meaning less useful and efficient space yse.Fine for the average person who hates cramped spaces, but I'd be perfectly fine with those cramped spaces if it gave me more function in said space.You bet your ass I am having a bed as close to the ceiling as I can get. I will sleep in the bed coffin!I remember seeing some guy build a neat looking bed descending mechanism to make better use of the space. The table and seats below could also become a bed as well, 2 double beds if needed. >>106473174For that you'd need to have some decent venting.Having a whole roof that could open up but prevent water breaching in could be great for those hot climates. Having some mechanism to lift the entire roof up (outside of the frame) would be especially good as you could create more vertical space in the back. Of course, much more expensive and depending on the region, you may need to pass that by your road regulators to see if it is all fine structurally for insurance, etc.Comment too long.

>>106473118Imagine needing a bootloader for your shitty, proprietary file system because you can't use EFISTUB
>>106473475i started using efi yesterday.tell me more.
>>106473475You seem confused about what ZFSBootMenu is. It's not a bootloader. It can be used in conjunction with EFISTUB or a bootloader of your choice. It's a utility that allows you to boot kernels off ZFS datasets and lets you manage snapshots. EFI itself cannot read ZFS.
>>106473969isnt it basically a mini-linux with a micro-userland and interface mimicking a bootloader?
