>>107732135okay I'm going to try this, thanks. good to hear it's probably not the display itself. on the other hand, the thing that I would like to upgrade most is actually the display, because I'm still using the stock display with TN panel which looks horrible. I could get a LP125WH2-SLB3 for 100 bucks, if this is better than, say, the display of a t14 gen 1 then it's maybe worth it, otherwise I should probably just buy a more recent thinkpad (t14 gen >= 3 would be nice for 16:10 aspect ratio) and retire my good old x220 (rip goat keyboard). can someone comment on this?
Is there any ultra portable with AMD that's comparable to 8th gen i5?
>>107732274X13 G1 or G2 with 4th/5th gen ryzen mobile CPU should be pretty close.
>>107732212The X220/230 is really at that tipping point where it doesn't make a ton of sense to upgrade it unless you're married to that form factor and feature set and have very modest computing needs. The IPS panel is a significant improvement over the TN but still not comparable to modern IPS screens. There's a fair bit of ghosting and the colors aren't amazing.If a $100 panel sets you up to get another year's use out of it or longer, maybe that's worth it. If you already have the upgrade itch and the performance/heat/battery life is already bugging you, save your money and put it into something newer.X13G3 is going to be the first X series to get a 16:10 panel. If that's way out of budget, maybe limp your X220 along til prices get cheaper.It's your call ultimately.

can anyone recommend a nice soft piano? the spitfire labs one is apparently now locked behind some ass subscription. doesnt really need to be anything fancy since im still a beginner and wouldnt know what to do with the cool stuff

That fixed the bad interpolation, I guess I can work from this. Large camera movements still doesn't seem to be doable.Prompt is essentially "man is drooling and shaking like a maniac as the camera turns around 180 degrees to reveal a gigantic woman slapping her butt."

>>107731929On the off chance this is not some ragebait troll, I'll just give a brief overview of what a typical project would look like- create a system to handle databases in different work-environment departments using a single user interface. Create said database and modify for different uses in each department. R&D, accounting, what's now called "human resources", company management, etc. System accessible to multi-users simultaneously with restrictions on access according to department and company guidelines. You get the idea. I hope. Collaboration was different members of the group are responsible for working on different modules individually and the group working together on integration into a single, cohesive software suite. We used 2 systems, Prime and Digital. PrimOS and RSTS/E respectively. And, yes, I guess this could all be done with a.. .fax machine... but the project would probably still be unfinished here in 2026.
>>107732296I like minimalism, and the computer reminds me of being a kid in the 80s. Don't care if it's "retarded". XT computers are great for editing text files, and my magnetic media still works after 30+ years Keeping records of my heating oil consumption is much easier in Lotus 123 than with pencil and paper. I know because I've done it both ways.I'm perfectly aware any trashy laptop will do the same muchore easily, but that was not the point of the thread.

How to tag anime with jellyfin?
Has anyone managed to use jellyfin on a Samsung smartTV? I did try a DLNA server and the built-in browser, but both look like shit and the navigation is not ideal. It looks like I can't screencast from the android app, because that doesn't work from a different subnet (the server Is running as a rootless container). What would you guys suggest?
Is there any client or extension that will allow me to access my jellyseerr instance from my tv to request content?
>>107732210>What would you guys suggest?If you just have a Samsung TV, then you need to do something else, which is easy and takes you only a few minutes to set up. 1. Install Kodi on your PC and set up the built-in DLNA server shown here: https://kodi.wiki/view/Settings/Services/UPnP_DLNA and point Kodi to your videos folder on your PC2. Turn on you Samsung TV and look for the Kodi DLNA server. Now you can play all the videos from your PC's Kodi DLNA server on your TV.OR1. Install https://www.universalmediaserver.com/ and point it to your videos and set it up. 2. Turn on your Samsung TV and look for the Universal Media Server DLNA server and you can now play your PC's videos on your TV. You can do either of these right now with little effort. Try it now.
>>107732210You can't use Jellyfin. You're stuck on the TV. Buy an Android box or use your gay TV.
