It’s not a “recent switchers only” survey, and it doesn’t assume people are non-technical anymore, which I'm grateful to you to for.

Long-term switchers are still valid respondents because the study is about barriers and motivations around making the switch, not just the moment it happened. People like you can speak to what pushed you to switch, what frictions mattered, and what stuck long-term.

But I’m not going to reframe the entire survey over a wording issue.

I ain't doing no survey, but to answer your question: It was seeing Windows continue to get worse with no end in sight. Windows 7 was really the last great Windows OS. I skipped 8 and went to 10. 10 was usable, for the most part. But Microsoft kept fucking with things and you had set registry keys to fix it, and then a few updates later they would change the keys you'd need to set. The final straw was the release of 11 and how much worse it seemed then even 10. At that time I started to make a real effort to switch to Linux. I knew Microsoft was eventually going to force the switch and I didn't want to be caught with my pants down when it happened.

I had used Linux previously for random projects but never seriously as my main desktop. In the past I had used a combination of Debian and LXQT. I liked LXQT, but wanted a few more features for my main desktop and so went for Debian with KDE. My first attempt to switch did not go well. It was a stuttery mess that I had tried to troubleshoot for a few weeks before giving up and returning to Windows 10. This was likely due to a combination of Debian's old drivers and the GTX 1080 I had at the time. A few months later I tried again with KDE Neon, because I figured if any distro would give me a good experience with KDE, it would be their own. And it was great, and I still run KDE Neon now. I will say KDE 6 is perhaps not as polished as 5 was, but I still do like KDE.

If it does both, then great, but ignore 21700. Isn't exactly a 'common standard'. That'd be 26650's.

Where are you looking for information about said 'mods'? I find the manufacturer to be a reliable source.

I mean, obviously with people like Peter Thiel pushing techno fascism. America is heading into fascism and Trump is the puppet president trying to get it done. Trump would do anything for money and pussy, he is a soulless husk. An empty vessel that only craves and exists for the two. They like presidents who will act that way. One man is too stupid to be making decisions that grand.

I'm like 90% sure its Thiel pushing a decent chunk of this shit ngl. He basically oversees silicon valley and shit like Google and Facebook (which is under rule by the paypal mafia and Peter Thiel is the don of that group, which also includes Musk) which builds databases on us entirely for governments to pull and hes building Palentir. Also most of the policies signed by trump align with his ideals. We are all already being watched, its all just done by privatized companies because it only sounds bad if the government does it. Cant wait until everyone unanimously realizes otherwise lol.

Ngl a lot of his ideology makes sense and is pretty good. I think most people fucking suck and should be doing a lot more for their community and for people, striving to be at their absolute best and to maxmize charity and the wellbeing of their community. I think that requires everyone to be monitered and for some communities to be wiped. Everyone can change, but some are too stubborn to and some will just take too long.

There are too many people who simply need to be pulled from the streets and terminated, they have no chance of recovery and no amount of stupid tech bullshit can fix them. They are already visible with the naked eye to anyone with a pulse, they are black, white, brown, arab, asian and every shade inbetween.

As long as the government doesn't intervene in stopping the production of hardware, as prices rise margins also rise and create an opportunity for new producers to enter the market
It's not guaranteed because nothing is guaranteed. AI is destined to fail anyway, it's revolutionising things but margins will lower easily. These companies are basically investing for nothing but they're using freshly printed government money anyway.

These threads are made by tech inept people. I could comfortably use 4GB of RAM on any popular Linux distribution and probably would be fine with two. Plenty of people run pretty intense workloads with 8GB Macbook Airs which are usually the most powerful laptops with just 8GB of Ram. 99% of people have 16GB of RAM or more and if one of their sticks die they won't need to change to a fucking cloud because they would still have 8GB of RAM.

>modding quake 3 engine, thats a real mans job

Tell me more about touching the engine of an already existing game. I know a guy who "took over" engine of an existing game. Or should we call it "he made an engine editor where he can load game's assets and roam around with freecam." But it was confusing for me. I mean the 3d world of the game looked identical. 1:1. So, it made me question this: what gives a video game its unique look? Its assets or its engine? Hmm..

Can't compare because I started with Vulkan 2 months ago without any prior experience in any graphics API.

What I can say is that with newer versions it's a lot easier to make it sane programming instead of whatever archaic mess it used to be before. E.g. VkDeviceAddress.

I'm retarded. Why is this useful?
>>
>>107558077
There's always been a "location" setting in Teams where you can pick "home, office #1, #2 etc"

The WiFi setting will notice when you're connected to your home network and set this automatically, or in office #1. For hybrid folks, this is great. You don't have to remember to manually set it since most orgs that offer hybrid require you to inform whether you're in office or at home anyway.

You could always just manually set it to whatever you want if you're being sneaky for some reason.

Also if you don't agree this is useful, that's fine, but my point is people are acting like this is going to give your boss a real-time GPS tracker and he can see if you're working at Starbucks etc. They don't understand wtf it is so they are chimping out.
