Do any of you use this? Is it usable in practice?
Anyone else on the simplex server for qubes?
>>107738449>Is it usable in practice?I like the concept., buuuuuut...Last time I checked, it doesn't have sound, which makes this distro not suitable for gaming, video nor music. Has this changed?Probably good for making a turnkey system your grandma can use to browse the web and use email without breaking it.
>>107745270Pulseaudio is used as a server client model with dom0 being the server and the vms as the clientsThey do have a pipewire plug-in but it might not be default
>>107745270>Last time I checked, it doesn't have sound, which makes this distro not suitable for gaming, video nor music. Has this changed?you can configure PCI passthrough to gaym on Qubes. if you have another GPU you pass that to your gaming VM and you should get video out as well as HDMI audio (I think, not 100% sure).
>>107738449It's not really usable unless you're carrying a workstation in your pocket. VMs are expensive.>>107745283I hope you're wrong and sound runs in its own VM, not dom0.
Nobody's going to learn the bash terminal unless they are some basement dweller who lives on their PC. Even people who use their PC for work aren't going to fuck around with stuff like that. The terminal went away in the early 1990s on Windows and Mac because it's trash and linux hasn't evolved with them.
>>107746222>echo '\e[01;30;41m'this is not a proper way to change colors and you know itno one is going to memorize a bunch of random numbers and type this crap out when they could just do Write-Host -ForegroundColor Red "INITIATING ICBM LAUNCH TOWARDS MUMBAI"
echo '\e[01;30;41m'
>>107735080I don't mind using the terminal, i just don't want to use it for the most basic shit (Bluetooth)
>>107744591I think it was designed by the sort of devs who think code should be self documenting and you shouldn't need to read the manual to find out what a command does if you don't already know. Meanwhile UNIX commands were designed by the sort of devs who know they'll be typing commands frequently and therefore should make the most common ones 2-4 letters.
>>107746794Even years ago on Debian I was able to do all normal Bluetooth tasks plus use my PC as a Bluetooth headset to take phone calls, all from the tray icon and GUI windows it pops up.
>>107747298I was going to call this bullshit but i realized i haven't installed blueman and upon doing so my headphones can connect to it fine which is odd considering it could not before. Oh well.

Have you ever considered the possibility that some day normal consumer won't be able to afford a computer anymore?With GPU and RAM price increases, this nightmare scenario seems likely.Wireless Internet connections might also get so full of traffic that one day fast Internet will be a luxury as well.1. Give people cheap tech so they get dependent on it.2. When they're addicted, start ramping up the price + scarcity3. WinMe? I'm already learning ways to survive without technology. In a few years you might have to live without tech.
>>107739312A $500 mac mini is significantly more capable than 90% of people need. Same with $750 macbook air m4.

>>107739312Wealth flows upward period. that's the natural state of capitalism. everything over time gets consolidated into the hands of a very few.You will own nothing because the fuckers at the top of the pyramid have everything
>>107739312Holy shit! This actually blows my mind unironically. Corporations merely allow us to exist. We're already in fucking communism. I don't own my own appartment. I don't own my car. It's just fucking loan companies. Communism won. We just don't realize were living in communism. The elite party is just the top few investment firms or whatever.
Do you think Apple's going to stop selling computers? Their whole deal is consumer hardware, they're not like say Microsoft that mainly deals in software and corpo services and has no first party computers.As the price of slopvidia GPUs and regular consumer RAM skyrockets, a Macbook becomes a better and better choice. Especially as the quality of Windows craters. Apple is going to hoover up all the people who used to use Windows PC. If you're a game dev it's time to learn Metal.

>>107740527I use my quest 3 to jerk off to VR/AR porn about once a week. That is its sole purpose.
>>107740527>Why did VR fail?Not all CEOs can become visionaries. Visionaries (like Jobs) will push for something no one gets until they deliver and then everybody gets it, in other words they're the first to get it. Dullards like Brin, Cook and Zuck try to do some shit they've seen in a scifi movie thinking "it's the inevitable future" and they're the last to get why it doesn't work. What there is to get is why the fuck would I want to wear some heavy overpriced goggles with no use case that only show me floating rectangle virtual screens when I already have screens?So the key difference is the ability to understand before it happens why something would work or not.
>>107742052There's nothing stupider than a large organisation.
>>107747624Jobs was never a visionary, he just dangled some shiny keys in just the right way.Windows and Android is what actually changed the world.
>>107747660No, you just don't get it.

How is RedoxOS coming along? It'd be nice to have a usable microkernel operating system.
>>107743317>They had an interesting idea about "everything is a URL" It followed pretty naturally from the network transparency features of most microkernels before it. Have they really abandoned the idea?>So after 10 years it is still not as advanced or usable as Linux was after 4 years.Not the same thing, Linux was slotted into the existing GNU ecosystem that had been worked on for a decade already, whereas Redox is effectively starting from scratch (bar rustc) and has much more complicated modern hardware to deal with.
>>107744937>Monolithic kernels are brain damage because it means they have no loadable drivers or modules.Ah, you're a retard. Thanks for telling me upfront, now I can ignore the rest of your drivel.
>>107746959That's how Unix on the PDP-11 worked. If you wanted to load drivers, you had to recompile and relink the kernel. The kernel was called /unix, then /vmunix when they added virtual memory. There were no kernel modules or loadable drivers.
>>107747122And it has absolutely nothing to do with the concept of a monokernel (running stuff in the same address space), or with the API by which its services are accessed. If it's a static blob at boottime or individual modules that can be loaded in doesn't matter (except maybe for the sake of optimizations).
>>107740569It's going along. I wish they properly committed to the "everything is a URI" thing though, it was a pretty cool idea.>>107741408seL4 begs to differ.
This thread is dedicated to KurobaEX-dev, which operates as a deliberately specialized digital interface, architected to facilitate the structured navigation, interactive engagement, and cognitive consumption of web-hosted content originating from the online platform formally designated as 4chan on a multifunctional, sensor-equipped, cellular-connected handheld computing device.

>>107745847This is true but sometimes you don't want to do that. Sometimes you make a post, in a fast thread for example, which has not much meaning and is irrelevant. You know as you post it that you wont go back to it to check for yous or enter a discussion. But your preferred settings bookmark everything by default. So, instead of having to seep through your post history and bookmarks to delete all your shitposts/spam you just do it on the spot. By unmarking the post. Thus you keep lists clean with stuff you actually want to follow up on later and avoid them getting too full beforehand. Capiche?
I want bookmarks and history separated like in Kuroba.
>>107746239You can disable showing bookmarks in the left-hand pane so it only shows history, then go to the dedicated bookmarks page to see just the bookmarks.
>>107746305If it were the other way it would be good.This way is an extra click for the bookmarks.

>>107744959>>107744671Okay, me again. I went ahead and created /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-hid-nintendo with "blacklist hid_nintendo"rebooted, manually loaded xpadplugged controller in, it attempted to handshake with nintendo, failed, and connected as hid-generic, then immediately fell back to xbox 360.So, it's working now. The solution was blacklisting hid_nintendo since that seems to be how it's trying to connect.

Apparently if someone requests their house to be blurred on Google streetview they delete ALL the historical streetview imagery for that street. There used to be streetviews of my childhood home going back to 2007 but now it's all gone. It's my own fault for not archiving it.
you can slap a passive aggressive note to that said house that is blurred why did you make google delete history. They dont even know they doxed themselves and gotten 10 times more attention kek
