Well, should every user of Photoshop or Blender be an artist? Basically, yes, disregarding outliers. 3D printers are for prototyping novel objects, so it's normal if only people interested in fabrication are using them.

The son of Jack Tramiel, Leonard, along with the Commodore retro community, have secured all 47 original trademarks. Commodore is back with modern hardware in a retro-inspired chassis, and a new Linux-based OS, Commodore OS Vision 3.0, based around the same principles that made the original Commodore appealing for enthusiasts and hobby programmers. While Commodore becoming an industry player again is very unlikely, and they're clearly leveraging nostalgia to make a buck, it's interesting to see the company necro'd from the ether. What does /g/ think about the return of Commodore?

You already nailed it OP. It's going to flop.

Hey, let's see how much money we can make off these LGR Fanboys and Greybeards by rehashing all of our old crap into some stupid raspberry pi clone with a C64 emulator.

They need to focus on making a useful minimalist OS, that would be cool. Instead they'll market the c64 again. Dross.

Those two halves of the sentence aren't really compatible with each other.

The original Commodore wasn't about being "retro". It looked like that because it was the norm back then. It was the cost efficient and logical design back then.
The original Commodore didn't use a unix insipired OS originally made for mainframes, because it was a PERSONAL COMPUTER in it's purest form. Nothing against Linux, but by design it's the polar opposite of what Commodore was.
The original Commodore didn't just use "modern" hardware either. It used unique hardware. That was particular true with the Amiga. Nobody needs another x86/ARM linux box.

OP here. I was sent a defective laptop by System76 TWICE. Keyboard double-types. Pressing a key will cause it to fire twice. The left shift key was crunchy as hell and wouldn't fire half the time. The left control key was the same. I returned the defective unit and was sent a replacement unit. The replacement unit was also defective in the exact same ways. Half the keys on the keyboard felt like there was dirt under them. Avoid System76 laptops. Their desktops are solid, however (I own one and it works great).

>two directories, one with 8000 images and one with 1000 videos
I've been using Jellyfin for months already and it works great for streaming stuff to my phone at home, however I'm concerned that the directories are getting too bloated.
I heard that Jellyfin isn't too fond of dealing with images, and that having too many files in a single directory causes issues for both the OS (Kubuntu in my case) and the apps that explore it (Dolphin and Jellyfin).

Is the issue overblown or is it something that will bite me in the ass later if I don't fix it now?
If I should fix it, would using a script and moving the files to a 3-level dir tree composed of the first six letters of each file's SHA256 hash to distribute them evenly work?. Something like
>/ab/cd/ef/filename.ext

iirc the story goes that spielberg was, as usual, a fucking hack but one with infinite jew sheckels, and because they were already doing lots of edited-in special effects but ALSO lots of practical effects the budget was fuckhuge and the props guy was a tech wonk so he proposed it and they just kinda let him do it because outright buying face plates of a bunch of supercomputers paled compared to the dinosaur puppets with custom milled aluminum skeletons

supposedly most of them got returned but they kept a few and i think they were re-used in a couple other movies. sorta like how when you go on IMFDB there's notes sometimes saying that some super cool crazy spacegun that would have been like 25 grand at the time even for the civilian model was procured by DOCTOR FIREARMS, PROPSMASTER and IS THE VERY SAME ONE THAT APPEARED IN [link]

Any Powershell pros here? Why does StartsWith think the output begins with it?

$output_02193410 = "okds"
$output_02193410 = py script.py http://4chan.org/g
if ($output_02193410 -ceq "okds") { exit }
if ($output_02193410 -like "{'post': {'id':*") { Write-Host "like match" }
if (($output_02193410.StartsWith("{'post': {'id':"))) { Write-Host "startswith match" }
startswith match
Write-host "The output: ""$output_02193410""."
The output: "Request failed with error: ('Connection aborted.', ConnectionResetError(10054, 'An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host', None, 10054, None)). Retrying after 15 seconds... Received status code 404.".

If you run stting functions on an array it will return an array of results.
For example
$x = "a", "b", "c"
$x.ToUpper()
Will return an array of uppercase letters

An array with multiple elements is considered truthy, so the if check passes.

here you go retard gpt'd it for you

you get:

startswith match
The output: "Request failed with error: ('Connection aborted.', ConnectionResetError(10054, ... 404)".
So StartsWith fires, even though the output looks like it clearly doesn’t start with that string.
What’s really happening
The key is this line:
$output_02193410 = py script.py http://4chan.org/g
PowerShell doesn’t automatically capture stdout as a string from an external command the way Bash does. Instead:
$output_02193410 receives an array of output lines (a [string[]]).

If py script.py printed multiple lines, $output_02193410 now holds multiple entries.

I honestly can't understand where all this "let's all shit on GNOME" comes from, to be honest. As a Linux user who's tried almost every DE and standalone WM and who's currently using GNOME on his main desktop PC I kinda regret not having tried it earlier: it feels snappy, coherent and very comfortable as a daily workstation. The only thing which comes close to GNOME in my experience is Cinnamon but it's uglier and lack of Wayland support is kinda bad right now.

You're not supposed to use the app grid to launch frequently used apps when using a keyboard, it's there for touch and mouse only users. Use the dash by clicking/tapping or by using its keyboard shortcuts or press the Super/Windows key and type the app's name, GNOME isn't and shouldn't be designed for baby ducks that refuse to move on from Win9x.
