What's so special about Arch? Why does it get memed on so hard? People say it has bleeding edge packages but why is that so important? Is it better for gaming or something? What makes it different from Mint?
pacman
>>107714276>Malware Centralname 5
>>1077146695 compromised packages
>>107709901the lts kernel exists for a reason retard
>>107709764with the archinstall script, it's just as easy if not more easy to install than many distros. gone are the days where it's "challenging" to set up. if you want it even installs a DE that works immediately. the appeal of arch to me is that i don't want a bunch of stuff installed, a lot of which i don't even know what it does. i want to install something when i need it. i want control over my computer and i don't want hidden stuff or restricted customization.
our FUARKING adblocking hero, Peter Lowereminder to thank this man for making the web a better place, without people like him and gorhill for ublock origin we would be lost
>>107713364Bless him.
Someone else would make up something similar. Right now there is little competition since it's pointless to try and reinvent the wheel. That's not to say a wheel couldn't be invented if there was none.
Brave shills been real quiet on this board ever since this drama happened
>>107713389They have been quiet ever since most countries were blacklisted from their fake money payouts

Does anyone know anything about Comcast's repeat infringer policy specifically? I've gotten some DMCA notices lately and can't be fucked to get a seedbox/VPN until I have no other choice.As far as I can tell, the following are true:>Although nor foolproof, you're significantly, significantly less likely to get a notice if you stop seeding immediately after the download>I've only gotten notices from Paramount, other companies either don't send them or don't do so very quickly>Comcast has a nine-tier system, and you only trigger a new tier after getting multiple DMCA notices in a calendar month>Tiers 1 to 3 or 4 are just emails>After that, you start getting popups and might have to call Comcast to get them to go away>Tiers 7-8 shut your internet off for 8-24 hours or until you call them and promise to stop>Tier 9 gets you a 180-day ban from Xfinity servicesI have these questions1. Can the tier system activate only once a month at the end of the month (the only time I got a tier upgrade/warning email was one time at 10 AM near the end of the month), or can it go up multiple tiers in a single month if you keep racking them up?2. Do tiers go down if you've stopped torrenting or haven't gotten caught for a few months to a year, or will you go to tier four if you were at tier three and download two torrents four years later?Comment too long.

>>107715680You're really telling me you worry about this but you won't spend $5 a month on a VPN? While we're at it, you realise you can just buy an invite to IPT from IPT directly? I know it's not the Mercedez Benz of trackers but it has all you need and as long as you keep your computer on and seed torrents, the economy is easy since almost everything is freeleech. Right now it's not $20 anymore but $10 only.They don't pay me to shill this, I'm just trying to help you https://www.iptorrents.com/signup.phpI figure it's pointless to refer you to /ptg/ and since you seem a little hesitant to put any effort into torrenting so maybe $10 for a lifetime solution would be something you'd be willing to consider.
It's been a few years since its birth, and many people in tech have made similar decisions, mostly because they struggle to find other options. Over the years they have seen this combination of two different worlds nurtured, and regret, anger, relief, and many emotions ensuedIs it worth it, /g/?

>Taught my whole life the first computer was build by Alan Turing>First computer was actually build by Konrad Zuse in 1941 GermanyWhy do they still teach that Turring made the first programmable Binary computer?
>>107714218Nope, Google says it was Russia. It's a known fact that Germans lacked rocket technology, which is why everyone was desperate to acquire their rocket scientists after WW2.

>>107711429Questions like "what was the first X" or "who was the first to do Y" rarely have a satisfying clear cut answer. Was the Wright Flyer the first aeroplane? Only if you discount earlier work on the grounds that those flights weren't sufficiently "sustained" or "controlled".

It's good for organizing projects & finalizing/formalizing notes you've written down. Pen & Paper + "Second Brain" App of one's choice is GOATed.
>>107711357But then I might as well use said project management app to track my notes
>>107707598>Why the fuck is Obsidian so popular?It isn't. The company has been shilling this for yers, easily recognized for using the logo plus some inane text. I am surprised the mods have not ejected them years ago, this is blatant advertising.
>>107715066Not really sure what your use case is, but having all the project related info in the project management system is fine. If the only thing you take notes on is projects why not keep it there?You can have TWO systems, one for your notes and one for project related items. Obsidian is very Cope tier for: To-do, project management, notes with drawings.Its good at notes, and if you wanted to make your notes a searchable database for SQL enjoyers who cannot get enough of it at work.
What's the best 2025 laptop
>>107715271I mean it’s been decades that Mac owned the music production segment of computing. It absolutely will be you best bet by far, I’ll be honest I don’t even know all the Apple eco system or what it cost but I know the 30 or so people I know who makes music have Mac’s.
Just check any top10 of whatever you need to use it
>>107715574thanx will definitely be investing in an m4 max this tax season
>>107715271Well, you can use whatever you want. I know some musicians witn windows laptops and I run windows on my desktop computer. Working with audio is better on macos due to how audio drivers work. But overall it's pretty similar.
>>107715622Np I wouldn’t jump on a m4 til you know exactly how much better the m5 is. Apple goes nuts sometimes and actually makes massive jumps that make their previous products a dead cope. Plan accordingly to apples development cycles.
Alright well since firefox is doubling down on implementing ai in their browser and theyre completely ignoring their user base professing how they dont want it. Which is the better fork of firefox to flee to? Im considering waterfox or librewolf since both are likely not to implement the new aislop bloat. Recently heard about this floorp browser too but its new to me and idk anything about it. Plus the name sounds gay as fuck which is the only reason im suspicious of it, the name alone already sounds like its begging to be abandoned but thats just my surface level take
is it possible to disable url bar autofocus when opening new tab in firefox?
I'm giving ungoogled chromium a try, seems decent so far and much more performant on my shitty Windows 10 IoT laptop I use when I'm away from home. Ladybird better not be a fucking bust I swear to God.
>>107702902I've tried it, they still spy on me and show me recommendations on jewtube based on what I type or what pages I visit.I bet they will even show me a video of 'firefox alternatives' on jewtube after I've visited this thread.
Librewolf + Startpage is an AI free experience.
librewolf just doesnt function on the modern internet, its not its fault, but regular things like youtube wont load right

I made this wallpaper 10 years ago while blackout drunk and I don't ever recall sharing it online (probably did multiple times on this board, but that period is a blur, lol) and just found it in a folder. I don't even remember what program I used, I just remember fine-tuning the shit out of that concentric gradient.

Anybody else experience random freezes on Void Linux? It will freeze and mouse and keyboard will not work and I have to reboot with power button. The caps lock light flashes which I think indicates kernel panic.I installed Void many times and this seems to be a recurring issue. Installed it on Thinkpad X220.
Assume my computer is airgapped and has a faraday cage around it. Can the government spooks still get into it?
>>107712449yes.this is RoboBee, a tiny robot insect that is available to the public.now extrapolate what the spooks have thats far superior, that can fly into your home undetected and video you while you work on your PC, it can get passwords, everything.you cant stay home forever. once you leave the spooks can break in armed with passwords, take whats on your computer and you'll never know.sleep well
>>107712449yeah they can raid your mom's basement
>>107712463But that's wrong you faggot. No one ever "got into" his systems. He personally blew them up, and that only after the nigger he was entertaining did typical nigger shit wif day sail foam.
>>107712449Is it plugged in to an AC outlet? If yes then yes
>>107712449Yes. They can extract data through HDD light blinks. Many other ways around it too.
