Has anybody here used elementary os? if so, what is your opinion? I plan to install a new distro and this one seems interesting.
>>107698095I always support any open source project that focuses on user experience since I believe Linux is sorely lacking in this regard. That said, I used elementary for a good while and I think they move at a glacial pace and their team has suffered some personal drama. So I don't know how much longer they can maintain their project

>>107698095I've never used anything other than Debian and Devuan so I wouldn't know
a nice project. IIRC they have their own platform library libgranite for gtk4, essentially what libadwaita is to gnome.
>>107698095>>107698929> Dev is a libtard sjw troonPretty much this is all you have to know. It's really a shame because I enjoyed EOS a long time ago. Very comfy because I don't like to rice and have no need of choice like that. I found out the Dev was a troon when the inevitable troon sperg out occurred. very sad.

My biggest hard drive a 12Tb WD JUST FAILED DURING THESe prices
>>107696139I wouldn't worry about it, these things last forever.My main drive is a Corsair Force MP600 which is about the same performance but has over 46 TB written and it's still at 95% health.
>>107698505Why do people keep mentioning SSD "health" as if it means anything? It's just TBW current / TBW rated. Effectively just a reminder.
>want to build a NAS>find out Synology now requires Synology only stuff inside>Ugreen NAS have shit software but godlike hardware>every 10tb+ drive has ballooned in priceJUSTThese drives don't even have AI or RAM inside, fuck techkikes
>>107698912If you have an old pc you can just chuck some drives in it and set up samba.
>>107698882I think there's more to it than that. SSDs have spare capacity that gets used up if parts of the SSD go bad.
I was gonna buy an HP omnibook with a snapdragon processor but I googled to see if it worked with my rollo label printer. It doesn't.
>>107690646Are you planning on using Windows on it? If so, do you want to run much software other than what it came with?Yes? Then it's crap garbage avoid like the plague.Are you going to install Linux? Are there drivers available for the hardware? Are you willing to build software from source when a precompiled binary isn't available?Then it's much more viable, and should get you more battery life per weight and amount of performance.
>>107697328Even linux support for these chips isn't great. I was interested in the qualcomm laptops, but qualcomm's lack of support for linux made me lose interest. I am so tired of arm hardware with poor vendor support.
(((they))) want us to move to ARM for the locked bootloaders
>>107690646Snapdragon has been great for me, I've been dailying mine for about 16 months now. People like >>107697328 will meme that software doesn't work because they haven't actually used one recently. Nearly everything "just werks" without any special config. The only limitations I've found involve software that's legacy and/or niche, such as an ECU tool for a 20 year old car and the firmware updater for Innoasis MP3 players.For a laptop, ARM gives you both battery life and thermals (the fans almost never spin up). In the rare occasion I need to do something ARM can't handle, such as the Innoasis firmware updater, I just use my desktop. If you need to run a lot of oddball software and it's your only computer, ARM probably isn't for you. But if you're doing fairly regular things or have other computers (like most of /g/ presumably), ARM is ideal for a mobile device.

>>107696800If you're just in it for the money, chances are you'll be better off in Norway. But CPH is a really nice city (much nicer than Oslo imo), the people are friendly, coffee and bakeries are amazing, food is top notch. Then again, as a norwegian you probably enjoy the mountains a lot, and we have none of that here.
>>107697973>If you're just in it for the money, chances are you'll be better off in Norway.It's an interesting job and a nice opportunity to work abroad (but still relatively close to home). If I just had a generic job back in Oslo, I would definitively go for it. However, my current job is something I've worked long and hard to get and I've reached the point where I have so much seniority and trust at my current company that I can pretty much decide exactly what I want to work on at any give moment. I enjoy Copenhagen a lot every time I go there, but of course all tourists enjoy going somewhere new.>Then again, as a norwegian you probably enjoy the mountains a lot, and we have none of that here.Sadly, I don't enjoy the mountains as much as I used to. Used to do it a lot more when I was younger, but it's kind of a hurdle to leave town to go to them.
Why do all of these retards use Workday, but don't have one consolidated workday account for all applicants? Making accounts for people who aren't going to read my resume anyway is ridculous, inefficient, and most of all, very indicative of their priorities.

FOSS programmers work for free. Why?
>>107698632Don't work for free just code out of passion to get what you want. I made GIMP plugins because I deeply wanted them. The only reason I heavily contributed to a digital commons is because I selfishly wanted special effects in GIMP. Every one benefited because I was selfish

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.

Research is not when you download a book and read the whole thing front to back. Research in this context is when you have a question and seek a small, self-contained answer.Use a search engine.

all “search” algos are on a variation of a b-tree index, so hierarchical filesystems were a way to make it simpler when you had limited computemain issue is that if you wanna move away from it you need to start filling indexes with other shit to allow people to quick search for files, and that goes against the unix philosophy and its pretty much bloatware

>>107695492I was like that I kept going back to windows until I used arch it has a steep learning curve but it works well with my hardware without messing around like I was on pop os or an Ubuntu based distro. You can use a script to install it so you don't have to follow all that stuff online but people apparently get angry about that, like literally just plug the usb in an type "archinstall" and then pick what you want. I was on gnome but just recently swapped to xfce because Wayland is a bit shit for Nvidia. I am still learning but all my stuff works on arch even my mic interface which usually never did and my soundcard and I can still play all my games with my mates it's pretty chill. Uses like 1 GB or less of ram on idle and use gamemode to optimise.
