choose one, and integrated bluetooth circuitry is shitty, their built-in amps and DACs are always shitty versus external hardware of any kind - basically, they are about convenience at the expense of quality, and then OP wants to make do with what he already has at a low expense, so a bluetooth adapter for what he already has is in order

I honestly don't get it, it quite literally looks like a circlejerk because at the end of the day, email is an inherently insecure protocol and for all purpouses ProtonMail is actually the best that someone can feasibly achieve without having to deal with the hassle of setting up an in-house mail just to have to deal with bounce-backs from other providers. This applies even after reading dig deeper's article, protonmail still seems to be the safest bet for a less tech-savy user, at the end of the day it starts to being a really tight fight between convenience and usability once you try to reach for something that is better than proton. Disroot seems to be the best one out of them, but still puts the burden of encryption on the user-side, yes I get that for more hackery users this hould be trivial, this is not friendly at all. Protonmail acts as a good-enough middleground if you don't expect to do anything criminal related to be honest.

The muslim problem is virtue signalling liberals who don't know how the world works graciously allowing muslims to migrate to Europe.

The low crime levels, high average levels of education and the very well working safety net that Europe has is because of vast investments in education and preventive measures against crime and addiction.

The two have nothing to do with each other.

How difficult would it be to learn combinatorial optimization? What material is actually good and what should I avoid? I'm looking for learning material and it's a bit overwhelming.
Honestly, I don't know that this is what I actually need to learn. The descriptions of this topic seem to fit my problem. I'm building a tool for an RPG. The tool looks at all of the items you own and calculates which combination will give you the most DPS. Brute force checking each item against all other items is too slow so it's not an acceptable hack here. GPT told me that I could use "Combinatorial optimization, a branch of Discrete optimization".
Small tangent, what is the best way to search for concepts like this when I don't know what they're called? I was using search engines (Google, DDG) but I couldn't come up with the right search keywords so it took forever.

I haven't seen any keyboard threads lately so I'm almost afraid to ask, but I'm on the market for a new mechanical keyboard and I've currently got my eyes on the Keychron V5. Working at Amazon, I've had the opportunity to "test" an open-package used one, and I really like it. It reminds me of my favorite keyboard, the Das Keyboard 4 Professional. Mainly because it feels insanely solid, and when you press the keys, you can hear the sound/vibration basically travel through the entire board, but without any rattling sounds or indication that the different parts are shifting around. I'm not really sure how to describe it, other than that it's kind of like when you slap a crisp apple with your finger, and you can hear the sound sort of "spring" through the whole apple, but in a way that you can tell the whole apple is very solid. I also love that it has the volume knob, something I've dearly missed about my Das 4 Profressional. And maybe it just speaks to the latent consoomer in me, but the frosted transparent plastic reminds me of the Nintendo 64/GameBoy color era. I can't not love that.

I'm currently using a Ducky One 2 TKL that I got because /g/ was always fawning over it. It's a great board and I don't really have any complaints, but I definitely feel like it's been somewhat of a downgrade in overall feel and build quality, despite being functional and no-nonsense. Any weird schizo rants aside, what do you guys think of Keychron boards? Are there other boards with similar or better build quality per dollar spent you'd recommend? I just want a no-nonsense board with a solid build and high-quality feel, preferably one that looks and sounds really nice.

I'm using a V5
I like the switches a lot, it's solid. I have no complaints other than the fucking USB-C port which is flimsy. The rotary encoder and the numpad are nice to have but honestly I don't use them much. It's just nice and honestly I feel like it's worth its price at least.
That said now I'm looking for a keyboard for my laptop when at home and I have no idea what to grab.

>everyone is starting to realize AI hype was overblown and stopped giving a shit
Meanwhile I'm still terrified of AI. Just because the technology isn't good enough to replace anyone at this point doesn't mean it's not going to permanently destroy the labor market. One third worlder with internet access and a GPT 4 subscription is (eventually) going to be all you need to replace an entire team of programmers. Even if you do manage to keep your job somehow it's not going to be anything like how it is today. The future is 100% high-level proompting AI that writes perfect machine code for you, in other words you won't have to do any problem solving and everything fun about your job will be automated for you.

Why have people suddenly stopped freaking out about this? It's not like anything has really changed.

There's a big OpenAI release slated for the 6th of June. Supposedly, they're going to release the GPT-4o advanced capabilities (voice, maybe image) and also GPT-5 or whatever their next generation of model is. Several reliable leakers have claimed this.

GPT-4 was released just over a year ago. Why assume the tech is going to be stuck where it is right now, forever? OpenAI started doing this first and everyone just catches up to them, but as soon as they do catch up, OpenAI reveals when they've been doing in the meantime.

The latter half of this decade is going to be unlike anything anyone's ever seen before.

Any discord group I've seen, it's all the same: in one chat many people talk about different things, people reply to one and other very very rapidly talking about completely different topics (in one "thread"). The conversation moves so fast that it's hard to pay attention. Whatever you type is very likely to be ignored as it is lost in the sea of other messages. And so the conversation moves on, but not in any order, simply for the fact that people type things.

How is this chaos enjoyable? Even on Reddit at least conversations can be easily followed and read, and searched too. I fail to see how socially inept people like this superficial nightmare.

Unless there is more shit to poke at in the webui, take out the disks and reattach them to your computer directly.
If it can't recognize them, better hope recovery tools can find the old ntfs remains. They usually can if nothing else was written over it, but you need another disk to send recovered data to because (at least what I used in the past) the program won't reserve the blocks its recovering from.
