how to check if i have brain
damage

Can I get a job in tech? I know how to program, but I've basically been a NEET for 10 years. Before that I had a year of experience working with JS. I don't have a college degree either. Is there a chance for me?
If I apply should I offer to work for minimum wage?

So how does wintoys' set security updates for WU? I thought that security updates weren't possible on an non-enterprise system.
Let's say that if I was a business but don't want an enterprise Windows and settled for Pro, I can strip out stuff with NTlite, disable Store and use wintoys to set security updates, I would have a near identical system to iot ltsc?

unfortunately the way to fix FC3 is to use 1709 or windows 7

You could always just set the exe's compatibility mode to Windows 7 while giving it admin privliage if it doesn't have it.

Battle Network was ahead of its time, but computer viruses aren't really anthropomorphized sentient beings, and "cyberspace" isn't actually real.

However if you were looking for the closest thing to a PET in the real world, imo that would be a Flipper Zero.

If you are just talking about making a PET that has some function and looks like a PET for shits and giggles, sure go make one with a rasberry pi.

Fake people with AI generated content you can follow for whatever fucking reason they think anyone would do that.
As much as I love MMBN, the idea of talking with an AI character sounds like the cringest thing ever.
Even if you could battle with them and interact with the web and real life, it is still something that would obviously would become a privacy nightmare.

>Battle Network was ahead of its time,
Well, more like the grasped the cyberpunk imaginarium and were extremely successful on making it anime. I wished they would have had the balls to make it more mature since they had load of opportunity with the world they build, but it ended up being too much like Medabots.

>>107690359
>Why has no one actually made this into a PET yet?
You're not allowed to have nice things, notice that? If you have nice thing, you may compete with the people who make bad things.

I personally use Brave search engine but I’m not really happy with it. Every search engine sucks, so even using all of them with searXNG won’t help…

He is absolutely correct. Where I work, we don't hire people that are not "AI-fluent" anymore.

Luckily it's Rust and not Python otherwise refactoring the small system that grew is impossible.

>>107696647
Somehow, this is an even less coherent answer than I had expected.

I'm trying to build kokkos and kokkoskernels libraries from source but it is impossible. it feels like those retards really want us to use package managers instead of properly setting up their projects.

Here's your project setup, bro: https://www.sumatrapdfreader.org/docs/Build-system
1) Install Go
2) Edit Lua
3) Generate Visual Studio solution
4) Compile with Visual Studio

I'm new to this but I like learning so go easy on me.

I've been autistically obsessed with low power consumption lately. I have two ARM Docker hosts in my rack (Radxa Rock 5C and Pi 5), one of my local VLAN and one for my DMZ VLAN. Together they sip around 5-6W idle.

They work great but I was looking into x86. After a lot of experimenting I built a N100 host (ASRock N100DC-ITX) that hits C8 on idle and hits around 4W. To achieve that I had to disable the onboard Realtek and use a PCIe Intel I226, otherwise it's stuck at C0.

The issue is, I wonder if I should keep my DMZ VLAN physically separate through a separate NIC. I got a 2-port I226 but the switch in it (ASM1182e) breaks C-states, only allowing the CPU to go into C3, using around 8-10W idle, which kind of defeats the purpose.

Should I go ahead and use the double ported NIC in exchange for slightly higher power usage to separate the VLANs physically, or should I just stay with the single NIC + trunk? Speaking from a security standpoint.

Containers have much lower overhead.

Wow... I would say you're trying AND succeeding. Just look how cool that taskbar looks! Yeah, I understand that IceWM is somewhat limited and that can annoy some people. Personally, I've never looked for themes that are exact 1:1 replicas, I'm not as demanding as others haha. I'm perfectly fine with trying to make it as faithful as possible to the original design within the inherent limitations and drawbacks of the WM. Going back to the example of the known Luna theme I mentioned in my post, it doesn't take more than a couple of seconds to find obvious differences and design issues. Nevertheless, I think it's a fairly accurate copy given the circumstances, which is already more than enough. I would love to contribute in that regard and make something as good as your pic, but as we saw, my skill in creating themes with so many elements leaves a lot to be desired. Good to know some people are trying to do it.

Very cool train.

>>107696713
Holy shit you’re working on that too? Keep us updated. I miss XP so much man.

>>107696975
I think that TRAIN has the feel of being a signal that my setup is now complete and final. Through organic sequence of events here it fell into place immediately after I discovered how I wanted my theme file to be edited and when I saw that TRAIN crossing my screen it looked like a final hole in a puzzle getting its piece inserted.

TRAINS hold a lot of significance for me, too, especially STEAM ones.

If you already changed the password you should be fine. Make sure you chose a long password with numbers, symbols, upper and lower case letters so no one can brute force it. If you want extra protection you can also configure the router to work with a whitelist system. But that can end up being kind of annoying because every time you want to connect from a new device you need to add the device mac address in the router settings.

>The are at least dozens different approaches to make C safe. And they all work.
Objectively not true. The first thing to even come close is Fil-C and that's still a mem

>>107693762
Borrow checker doesn't check all the memory bugs. Like the name indicates, it's just for borrows, for references.
For example data races are prevented by Send/Sync traits and normal generic bounds, no borrows involved.

>>107691745
>So why aren't they counting memory leaks as a memory bug?
For the same reason Java doesn't count them as memory bugs. They do not lead to undefined behavior.
