>>108352479>What are you even talking about here?Sorry, I won't fall for your bait. but, since you mentioned x11, it seems like you know a bit about Linux. Any roadblocks? How did you get filtered?>[insert anything] would like a wordHey, if (You) don't like something, (You) don't have to use it. There are always alternatives, it's in the nature of free and open source software, to be forked. Don't like Systemd? Don't like Wayland? Don't like GNU? There are plenty of options, just don't play dumb.
>>108352539In all honesty, I know more about linux than you ever will. It’s great on servers, but there’s no advantage to using it over Windows for the desktop.
>>108352640Nice! And yes, I agree... it's great for servers. My homelab is running debian for back ups and selfhosting.>no advantage to using it over Windows for the desktop.I feel like if you care about privacy, Linux and BSD are the only options. The only thing I really had to give up, were Kernel Anti Cheat Games, but I didn't play much LoL anyways. All my private machines are running Linux now and I got a company issued Laptop for Work with W*ndows, 365 and proprietary client management software.Before I'd go back to Windows, I'd rather switch to an M-Series Macbook. Windows is a joke.

it's your fault Firefox crashes and you should upgrade your trash PCyou are hurting Firefox market shareplease stop
>>108338073He uses a macbook air with linux on it doesnt he? I dont think they have ECC
>>108345977Could be a correlationIDK how many times you see some retard complain about their 10 year old SSD being "chewed up" and it's always a Firefox user.Most of the complaints I see from the web being "bloated and slow" is from fucking Firefox users on old as fuck hardware.
>>108337867I can confirm. My Firefox crashed twice a day, and RawTherapee sometimes froze. I ran Memtest86+ just for fun, and after a few seconds, red [FAIL] appeared. I replaced my faulty 8 GB DDR3 RAM with a secondhand (but new, factory-sealed) 16 GB DDR3 RAM, and I haven't experienced any crashes on my Ubuntu since then.
>>108338861if blaming Intel is correct, then Apple Silicon Macs should have lower rates of memory-related fuckups. I hear they don’t have _all_ of ECC’s fuckery protection, but they have some.Do Apple Silicon Macs have fewer general memory errors?
>>108337867makes sense to me I have firefox running for 16 hours a day and I don't remember last time it crashed
these fuckers ruined everything, now they're complaining that their very forum is getting ruined by what they promoted.

Best music player app for Android?I'm done using subscriptions, I'm just going to pirate all my music like the old daysCan I get a zune HD style music app or something similar? I still have my zune, but it's like 16gb and I don't want a second device
Cx File Explorer. That's all you need.
musicoletpowerampblackplayerin that order
Former musicolet user who switched to pulsar here. I still think I like music(t)o(i)let better but the jeet dev seems to be too dumb to figure out how to get around the aggressive background process killing that happens on some phones. So I needed an alternative. Those are the only two apps I have used that are any good at all. Everything else is utter dogshit and the people who made it should be embarrassed.
>>108352129Symfonium works and it's ok, If I were to care after the devs of each crap I use I wouldn't use windows due to the jeets, Linux due to the trannies and Bichas or Mac due to the faggots. And you use a lot of trannyware yourself you complete faggot.

>>108352008thats like saying ''muh grandparents got the TV when everyone started getting TVs.. and i dont understand why''its one of those things, like washing machine, a stereo, a TV.. why would they wanna miss out on owning that?
>>108352008I paid for it after I creampied your dad
>>108352712the difference is that they had no use for it themselves. and while sure getting popular thing because it's popular thing is pretty normal, that's not enough of a reason by itself considering how expensive it was. again we weren't rich. the house i grew up in was made in the late '50s, complete with external wood fired heater for hot water. my parents drove cars from the '80s (my dad upgraded to a second hand one from '96 later, but when i left home in 2010 my mum was still using that '80s car), etc. not to sound like i'm complaining or anything, i enjoyed going with my mum to garage sales and flea markets, they're where i picked up all my early computer parts and stuff (i had a room full of old computer parts before the family computer)
>>108352815There is saying >It's better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have itComputers were pretty amazing at the time and people were sold the idea that they would replace everything
>>108352008same, I remember my parents taking money from my piggy bank to buy smokes and hocking the TV to make rent and never owning anything better than a second hand magna. But somehow they were able to afford a PC. I guess I am thankful it is the one luxury we did have because it forced me to have to wring every drop of entertainment I could out of it, and now I am a professional computer autist

Where we do go from here? I don't see how regular liquid batteries can get any better than this. How could you go faster than nearly a full charge within 5 minutes?
>>108351385>Dont be fooledkek we can't do it so nobody canwell done anon
>>108350175You've got to start with something.Milence for instance began with one charging station in late 2023 and now has over thirty operational with more added each month.
>>108351378They're also 15% more expensive. So they're more expensive, gives a ton more energy density, but with fewer recharge cycles.I can see why they're mostly in phones but not as much in EVs except high end models. Phone batteries can be cheaply replaced every 3-4 years, but for the average car buyer, it's probably something they can't afford, except richfags, so hence only high end premium models.

>>108350651>Are you sure that's OK?Yes.>How long have you had yours like that?It has been running continuously since 2017 or 2018. Initially it was the WiFi router for my parents, now it's a VPN server and torrent box.My Pi4B boards are also fanless and one of them has been in service since 2020, mostly for Kodi and Retropie.The fan is optional, it allows the board to sustain high load for long periods without thermal throttling. If you don't load the board continuously, or don't mind the throttling, or can avoid it in other ways (CPU governor, undervolting) then there's no need for a fan.
>>108351147It didn't work when I tried it.I think there's some calibration data in the controller that needs to be transferred over in order for this to work. >>108352301Better for what? I prefer big rather than many, you can partition a big disk however you need.

Firefox just announced that they are extending Windows 7 support yet again. Despite originally pledging to drop support in 2024 they have now announced yet another 6 month extension and will probably extend after that to 2027 or even match Windows 10 LTSCs support timeline. This gives Windows 7 users an unprecedented 7 years post EOL support.Despite being only 0.7% of Windows users they comprise 5% of Firefox users which are now becoming very lucrative to Mozilla as Windows 7 users are captive to Firefox as they are the only mainstream browser left in town. Despite recommending Linux upgrades it looks like RAM price increases have prevented people from buying new computers forcing them to keep using their ewaste Windows 7 computers and using Firefox.It will be very interesting to see how long the can will be kicked, will we see Windows 7 users in the 2030s?
>>108351017Right. Computers used to be for solving problems not monetizing attention.
Didn't read the thread, just search filtered "Firefox" to complain about something:How is WebGPU STILL not supported on Firefox Linux in the year of our lord 2026? It's actually insane.
>>108352073this is actually a windows 7 thread
>>108339135so you guys moan about data collection but here mozilla can achieve this thanks to it
