>>107746760The options listed on the login screen are :COSMICgnome classic gnome classic on waylandgnome classic on xorgUbuntu Ubuntu on wayland Ubuntu on xorgI just tried every one and only cosmic works. The others show a full black screen with lines of code for a few seconds and then just go back to the login screen. I even tested them both with dynamic mode and discrete GPU only mode set in the bios. should I just go back to windows lol
>>107747109Ok, look in /var/log for an X error log, or check journalctl.
>>107747386I just fresh reinstalled popOS because I think I broke something. Unrelated to resolution. The trackpad stopped working. But now after the fresh install everything is back to normal and functioning I just still can't set it to the desired resolution. Honestly I think im just gonna settle for 1920x1200. Fuck it

>>107747508well, you can always use it like that for now and work on it later when you feel like it. X server provides decent error logs to work out why it's not starting. You have nvidia drivers installed?
there’s no way people are already nostalgic for touch screen phones.https://www.reddit.com/r/FrutigerAero/comments/1q246sx/2000s_to_2010s_nostalgia/
>>107747071Yeah, I have a hard time getting the point of that video, unless it's advanced memeing. I suppose it could be the general UI look and feel.

people on tech twitter are all spamming you have to use agents and claude 4.5i feel like an old man writing code by hand, am i missing something? granted i haven’t seen them shipping shit but fomo feels.

>>107746274I got AI fomo but I sated it with a fdm printermaybe I'll learn SAT solvers too sometime, i feel those ar basically AI when combined with formally spec'd programming languages but without random trash results
those """"people""""" were paid by sam altman to start discourse because twitter discourse is the new marketingeven me typing this comment is free fucking advertisement god I hate world dont worry OP every one of those tweets was meticulously crafted to generate as much insecurity and FOMO as possible. dont pay any mind to it.
>>107746274opus 4.5 is pretty good, especially with thinking turned on. before trying the fancy stuff you can try to talk to it through the chat interface and ask it to write or modify functions for you (paste the whole file or relevant section in)

Linux still doesn't have a good and well rounded DE
>>107748133The only thing the editor Emacs doesn't have is a good editor.

>>107748157you can run a terminal inside of emacs and run vim inside of that terminal
heh
>>107747954Feels like indian now is China in the 80s and 90s. Western countries see them as a massive cheap workforce to exploit and then a couple decades later they start growing extremely fast. Only a matter of time until indians becomes too expensive to use, but we'll have bigger problems by then.
>>107747977AI shitAI garbage
>>107746567No.
>>107747954Wypipo got lazy.
Fucking trash operating system rebooted again while I was making this thread and lost everything I had written. I am so beyond mad dealing with this trash tinkertranny OS. If I had installed Linux I would of been done long ago but noooooo... This piece of trash had me blocked from using the laptop I bought because it wanted to use my Microsoft account without any other option. It wanted my fucking Microsoft password and it withhold my fucking laptop for ransom until I gave it the fucking Microsoft password to my account. I will post this now before it reboots again but I am not done.
>>107747095>would ofstopped reading
>>107747294XP and up had telemetry built into them. It's called the Consumer Experience Improvement Program (CEIP) and was OFF by default. It never nagged you to turn it on either.A number of those Windows Updates just added more telemetry capture scenarios to CEIP in Windows 7 (and maybe 8). What is truly concerning are the Windows Updates that added the Diagnostics Tracking Service to 7 & 8 (10 has it built-in), which I've never found any good documentation on what this service does
>>107747598>onceif only
>>107748189Is there a problem with ShutUp10 I should know about?
>>107748214Non that anon, but...The changes these types of programs make are sometimes reverted back to their defaults after a Windows Update installs. ShutUp10 started putting notices in the program about this early on.
Qualcomm's most advanced ARM chips now rival the performance of the Apple M5. Why hasn't Qualcomm opted to open source the drivers, enabling the creation of robust ARM Linux laptops? Do they have deal with Microsoft?
>>107741844>india using apple productsno one tell him
>>107741844odd that we have multiple schizos with the same misconception that indians use apple products, but you're definitely not that other guy based on not using his favorite word.

are KOSS headphones any good? or are they influencer slop?
You need to get yourself a pair of orthodynamic headphones, too bad all the good ones are super expensive now. You used to be able to get a nice pair for $100-200. Some of the best ones are made by Yamaha and look cheapish. Also among the best of all tested, are the old Soviet orthodynamic sonar phones. They are built like a tank. I have two pair, one NIB.
>>107734191yes tested random portapros audio on right earmuff shit they were
>>107742489>are you alright luv?>I can’t start the morning with out a cup of me morning tea>its been right cozy here, I tell you luv
>>107734191I've been using the KSC75 for a bit over 2 years I think and I really like them. Super nice sound and super comfortable + no headset dent. Only thing that might deter people is that all external noise passes through like zero noise cancelling but for me it wasn't a problem. The sound can also leak out if it's super loud but that doesn't happen very often.

>>107746803Vsync adds lag.In the pre-compositor days, drawing commands were executed instantly, without any kind of delay or complex scheduling. Without compositing you got the best possible latency.
>>107736324No. Compositing ended the era where you expected a UI to have some tearing (just not on overlay/fullscreen video or games), dropped frames, or frames spent waiting for the whole window to load in; and ushered in the era of bitching about all those things. Desktop apps were not expected to be vsynced and frame perfect like games or media players.It did create a new, shittier form of UI jank especially in X11 though, since it complicated resizing and moving windows. When dragging, the window now lags 2 frame behind the mouse pointer. When resizing, either the content redraws at least a frame behind the border, or the WM just stretches the image of the window and sends it a single resize event at the end.
>>107739228I like terminal-supplied fake transparent, it shows a background image that shifts along but no other windows. I'm not going to start looking through windows to find my windows.
works on Zorin OS lol I have it on with spinnan cubez

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
>trusting google to not randomly delete things
since we have the term saarnix, i also propose that we use the term 'saarpple' now

I had a small issue I was trying to figure out. I YouYubed it and found a few guides. The jeet channels had you moding files, deleting shit, and taking up to 20 minutes. I finally a white man's channel who provided a solution that took a few clicks and 30 seconds.

Why do people bother with paid AI assistants like Grok, CoPilot, GPT, Gemini, and Claude, when this exists, it is FOSS, and it is currently beating out all the others in terms of raw reasoning power and token efficiency?Come in here and explain why you're a fucking retard still using Grok because you live your life out on twitter.
i use it as a "good enough" workhorse for standard queries to save free-tier budget for paid models . it definitely has noticeable limitations like thinking it's 2024, and somewhat commonly replying in Chinese , and not building memory on past interactions . i haven't experimented with running it locally yet though , and will soon , and i expect these issues to be mitigated with local datasets / training .
>>107746815afaik none of the commercial AI assistants provide cross-conversational memory outside of ChatGPT and CoPilot, but with CoPilot you have to manually tell it "don't forget this" or "save this to memory for later" otherwise every new conversation you start is like you're a complete stranger. All the others, DeepSeek included, have no past retention of your other conversations.I'm not sure why this is such a common limitation that only GPT and CoPilot have bypassed. My only guess is maybe user security and privacy or something like that, but I dunno.
>>107745808I don't know. I've got a free account for deepseek and it's a permanent pinned tab in my browser. I would never use the western LLMs.
>>107745808I can't locally host a 271B parameter model lad.

>>107743794Gradle is horrible. The build "DSL" is grotesque, and what people are doing with it is absolutely horrific. Maven has design faults, some of which they seem to be fixing in Maven 4, but on the whole it's nicer to deal with. Honestly, if I were to build a new java project today I'd probably use ant.
>>107738273i was hacking minecraft last year, and came to appreciate the monotony of java for how easy it was to disassemble and work things out
>>107747273what do you mean monotony?
