What's /g/'s opinion on Mental Outlaw? I've been a fan of his for a long long time, he's the one that made me privacy conscious and made me switch to Linux. I remember once reading in one of his comment sections that he was "bullied off /g/" by some guy, is this true? Also, if you're seeing this thread Kenny, hi!

Hi guys, I don't know why I'm writing this, but I believe in the power of the Internet, and that's why I'm writing. I live in Kazakhstan and I've been fucked up by the Kazakhtelecom Internet provider because they haven't been able to make my home Internet connection properly for a month, so I can't stand it because I pay $20 a month for the Internet in my currency and the quality of the Internet It's terrible how long I've been living, and it's not just with me, but with many people, they don't want to make a good Wi-Fi and I hate it, I don't know why I wrote it, probably because I wanted to talk it out

Have you tried how the ethernet connection is? Often the problem is shit ISP wifi access point, the solution is put own router with wifi behind ISP router, disable ISP router wifi, connect to own router.
ISP router LAN porf -> own router WAN port.

You're using ADSL. No wonder your connection sucks. Switch to fiber or Starlink.

I am currently in possession of a Dell Precision 5550 my school gave me and didn't ask for back; this happened 1.5-2 years ago so I forgot I even had it. I would like to use this as a personal laptop to replace my old desktop; however, the BIOS is locked, and it is running heavily restricted Windows, making it practically just a web browser.

I have already read a fair bit about how this is difficult but all info regarding actually unlocking it doesn't work--any advice? Is there a reliable way to do this without having to do anything to the BIOS chips? I am fairly technical but currently do not have access to the required tools for soldering/chip flashing. I do not have a USB-C flashdrive, but since I can't even open BIOS boot order due to admin lock, I doubt it would work.

Laptop model: Dell Precision 5550
Bios Version: 1.22.0
BIOS Mode: UEFI
CPU: i7-10750H
GPU: Quadro T2000 (Max-Q Design)
RAM: 32GiB

Should this be unfeasible/too painful, I am thinking of buying a ThinkPad P53 as an alternative.

I can provide more specifics if need be.

>If you can buy another computer, you can buy some basic soldering equipment or a BIOS programmer.
(De)soldering SMDs on a laptop where making a single mistake would likely destroy it completely isn't a great risk to take when the laptop still has resale value. Buying a programmer and soldering gear is extra money that could just be put towards a P53 instead, which is a better laptop and is vastly more upgradable.

I was against eSIM when I heard it was being forced on people with new phones, but after using it I'm convinced physical SIM should die
>free and instant network activation
>if your phone is stolen, you can't get physically SIM swapped
>makes more phones dual SIM
>GrapheneOS will wipe it if you enter your duress password
The only benefit I can see for regular SIM is it's easier to swap between phones, which is something hardly anyone does regularly
>>
depends of your case

if you're schizo with graphene - eSIM is the answer to wipe all your shit including eSIM.

what phone are you specifically wanting to use?
if it's old enough to not have eSIM it's probably old enough that security isn't your most important thing

I am regularly amazed that we pretend folders are the right way to organise files. They’re entirely arbitrary. Every competent file system ignores them to its best ability. Why can’t I have a file in two folders? Why does one have to be a “reference”? Why can’t I filter for files that exist in 3 folders with X extension?

We’ve been played for absolute fools.

Even Windows's native image tagging is kinda meh. Like the guy above you I think something like Obsidian would be great because you could organize everything in any way you like: tags, metadata, links, or folders, or a combination thereof. My current plan is to have a sidecar/metadata file with external links to each image/video/whatever type of file in my hoard. Ideally the file manager itself would handle this, then you wouldn't even see the sidecar files.

cats and dogs are all in the same folder anyways, and the filenames start with either c or d.

The audio interface is basically a sound card, you're sending a digital signal over usb which is then converted in your audio interface to an analog signal which is sent over XLR to your speakers (or the other way around for a microphone or instrument going into your computer). Why would you want to remove the (actually useful) middleman? Do you trust the garbage built in sound chip on your motherboard? Or some tiny crap built into a bizarre xlr to usb cable?
>>
>>107685067
This is needlessly complicated when 99% of normies, including many anons here, will do fine with a simple USB microphone.
>>
>>107685341
What's complicated about it? Get an audio interface, and plug you shit into it. It's an incredibly common peripheral to have, probably the most normie peripheral out there.
>>
>>107685341
true but xlr isn't for normies, it's for sound engineers and people plugging instruments directly into amplifiers/mixers and such
