>>107691766It did not work out of the box for me. I had to set up pipewire. Don't remember the details though, sorry.
>>107691766Install pipewire and its manager wireplumber, along with its pulseaudio/alsa/jack emulation layers.Should have working sound after that.

>Only fucking GNOME supports real fractional scaling on a 4k screen>Is also one of the worst DEsWhat is this bullshit?
>>107690422It doesn't support _real_ fractional scaling. What it does is that it renders things at an integer scaling and then downscales the window as a texture, making it blurry as shit. It's implemented like this because gnome devs are also gtk devs so they are fucking retarded and didn't implement fractional scaling in gtk (intentionally). Qt supports fractional scaling properly, including on x11 (and all other operating systems/display servers that it can run on).

>>107690422shit scales fine for me on KDE.I installed LXQT on my HTPC and had to reinstall because the scaling on a 4k TV was so shit.
Thanks Windows
>>107691454>Windows 7/8.1 would be fast and responsive running from the same driveNo they wouldn't.
>>107690459look up the issue. you'll need to disable windows defender and some other shit.
>>107691488>waah you're a poor, brown and a tranny incelCompelling argument, retard. Go ahead list them. It's all pajeetware bullshit Windows could do without, because it did. >>107691553Yes they would I've used every major Windows version since 3.11.7 is snappy running from a period correct 7200 RPM HDD.
>>107690681It's not just windows. Chrome does that too, scans whole drive every single day trashing the drive and uploads log to jeet mothership.
>>107691619>Yes they would I've used every major Windows version since 3.11.You have to be over 18 to post here.>7 is snappy running from a period correct 7200 RPM HDD.No it's not. With a 7200rpm drive they will, at best, manage to boot up on a fresh new install. If you use any modern application or even just an antivirus, they will slow down to a barely useable crawl. One of the first things we used to do when servicing Windows 7 machines was to change the boot drive to an SSD, fortunately they all use at most 500GB HDDs inside so it's easy to just do an image copy to a same size SSD, then run from that and have everything be 1000x faster.Shit, I have an old Turion laptop somewhere that took ten minutes to boot Win7 from a HDD, then I swapped one of my old spares in and now it's snappy as Speedy Gonzalez, I mean as long as you don't do anything that would require CPU calculations or use more than 2GB of RAM (so basically one browser tab only).
A few of you may have discovered today that thumbnails suddenly stopped loading in Firefox. I did.Checking the browser console, I found errors for each thumbnail in the catalog which said "A resource is blocked by OpaqueResponseBlocking, please check browser console for details."After disabling browser.opaqueResponseBlocking in about:config, those error messages turned into 403's and the images would still not load.I did a desuarchive search for Firefox and found a post in /trash/ saying "I figured it out. 4chan is now asking for referrers when requesting images from 4cdn... TL:DR; 4chan wants to know where you were before loading an image." along with a screenshot of all about:config settings with the word "referer" in them.With the help of that screenshot, I pinpointed the issue to network.http.referer.XOriginPolicy in about:config, which I had set to 2 for whatever reason, I don't know. Setting it to 0 fixed the problem.Most of you on Firefox probably won't experience this since 0 is the default setting.So, for those of you also experiencing this issue, there's the fix, and now the fix is on desuarchive for others to find.Feel free to discuss the technological/privacy ramifications of this change by 4chan, or if the /trash/ poster's analysis is correct.
>>107669497>Don't just let any faggot know where you're coming from, install referrer spoofer addonModern browsers use the strict-origin-when-cross-origin referrer policy by default, and common extensions like uBlock Origin already can and do override Referrer-Policy header values on network responses to tear out any more privileged value.This means only the origin (i.e. domain/hostname) will be sent, not the resource you were actually looking at.If that's not good enough for you, you can override to no-referrer by default and white-list certain domains that need it to allow for strict-origin-when-cross-origin.You don't need separate additional extensions.
>>107674247>can detect all of the websites you were visited beforeReferrer header only contains the one previous website you came from. It cannot see the whole chain.There is intentionally no browser API that allows for this.
Maybe one of you can help me fix my shitI'm on Firefox and the "please verify that you're human" cloudflare check doesn't work on 4chan specifically (and not in incognito either). I press verify and it keeps looping and nothing happens. I can visit other sites just fine. I've had this issue a week ago >>107611158 and >>107612219 and since then I've just been posting normally because it fixed itself out of nowhere. if this gonna keep happening I'd like an actual way to fix it
>>107691419Whitelisting is clearly necessary. How do you use that in uBlockOrigin?

Why yes I do use squiglink to EQ headphones to sound like other headphones
>>107690537everything sounds bettersurely you do use sound anon
I like my Valhalla 2 ampthat is all pswhy do akg headphones look so good on anime girls, but suck ass in real life? Makes you think.
>>107690843yeah but the only thing I ever see audiophiles talk about is music
>>107691840just use decent speakers if you want to listen to podcasts/games/movies w/e.good used speakers are free-$100 used because the shear volume of boomers getting rid of them doesn't match how many people want them. Anything super high end is still $1k+ but good quality ones are still absurdly cheapget a decent receiver/amp and basically any speaker from mirage,paradigm,energy,athena(less so), klispch,roland,mission etc. It's sort of country based so you'll have to see whats around in your country, anyways loads are from golden years of canadian speaker manufacturing or the ukhaving a decent set of speakers for games or movies is beyond kino anon i highly recommend it.

>>107691807>windows is better for cad software and gaming only- Backwards compatibility- Standardized (most the people in world use it)- The platform actual developers target not ("hackers")Mac has less reasons to use it.- Ecosystem- Music production and maybe adobe products run better on it

>>107689057AGI is as likely as teleportation, pure science fiction.
>>107689057They don't even know what AGI is, they can't agree on a definition.It's like defining what exactly 'thinking' is and emulating that in software.Nobody knows what thinking is because it all stems from consciousness and what the hell is that

>>107690033you drag them to trash
>>107688718It can't be solved easily since it can't be enforced by the OS without breaking a shit ton of software, and some snowflake is inevitably going to break convention out of laziness or ignorance.
>>107690075Fuck your backwards compatible. Go dig a hole and climb in it while the rest of the world moves on.
>>107689029You can see .dmg files as a remnant of how floppy disks worked. Back in the day you'd mount a floppy disk and either run the software from it, or drag it to your machine and then unmount it.The installers are entirely different, usually they require some extra configurations being set system wide or a specific driver to be added, if you use an installer you will not have to drag anything.
