First time edition!!!The last thread was ages ago and I missed seeing some cool setups! I apologize if I'm missing anything cause this is my first time posting one of these, hopefully we can share some nice setups!!
>>107699694absolutely based and comfy. is that wii homebrewed? when it is you can put any game from NES-Wii on it and play with official nintendo classic controllers like pic rel that plug into the wii remote. so you have an all-in-one set up where you're playing on a CRT with the original controller as it would have been when it came out. Oh man I'm baseding out hard
>>107716544minecraft and black ops zombies.
>>107715663oh man that's comfy. do you mind sharing what some of that stuff is between the CRTs and what they do? Looks like an oscilloscope, a UV meter, and some other things. I really like analog tech
>>107717269I initially set this stuff up for a music video I still haven't made, a lot of it is test equipment that I normally have elsewhere on my workbench. It's still sitting there for when I want to play games or burn CDs though.That's not a normal oscilloscope, it's a curve tracer. I mainly use it for matching transistors and diodes for audio circuits, oscillators, filters, etc. Other than that there is a function generator, multimeter, PSU, frequency counter.The laparoflator equipment isn't something I have a use for really, it's just medical equipment that came alongside the medical PVM just out of frame on the right. Right under that PVM is a NTSC waveform monitor and vectorscope. I am using that as part of my setup for calibrating CRTs for my video wall which has been an ongoing project for some time.
>>107714094Holy cow anon. Get the Miku Case already. Nice keyboard though >>107716544nice>>107715663nice but I hate those games>>107707497Could have wall mounted the 43" monitor

>>107717139are your speakers turned on?
>>107717139Sounds like you should probably repair upgrade with an install ISO
>>107717167They're headphones, I tried the headphone and speaker jacks (worked before) and neither works.

>The development comes a little over a year after the tech giant [Google] disclosed that its transition to Rust led to a decline in memory safety vulnerabilities from 223 in 2019 to less than 50 in 2024.>The company pointed out that Rust code requires fewer revisions, necessitating about 20% fewer revisions than their C++ counterparts, and has contributed to a decreased rollback rate, thereby improving overall development throughput.>We adopted Rust for its security and are seeing a 1000x reduction in memory safety vulnerability density compared to Android's C and C++ code. But the biggest surprise was Rust's impact on software delivery," Google's Jeff Vander Stoep said. "With Rust changes having a 4x lower rollback rate and spending 25% less time in code review, the safer path is now also the faster one >With roughly 5 million lines of Rust in the Android platform and one potential memory safety vulnerability found (and fixed pre-release), our estimated vulnerability density for Rust is 0.2 vuln per 1 million lines (MLOC).>Our historical data for C and C++ shows a density of closer to 1,000 memory safety vulnerabilities per MLOC. Our Rust code is currently tracking at a density orders of magnitude lower: a more than 1000x reduction.https://thehackernews.com/2025/11/rust-adoption-drives-android-memory.html
>>107716810but enough about C
>>107716278send the binary again if it's no trouble
>>107709408So you allocate an input_buf even when you don't need one. Interesting...
>>107717394That's not what actually happens.

We wouldn't be in this hardware pricing fiasco if babyducks didn't cling to their old hardware and instead turned it in to be crushed and melted, harvested for precious metals and remade
>>107716299>babyducksMore zoomerspeak.Just go away.
>>107716299It’s not a fiasco if you bought your hardware two years ago!
>>107716342>>107716792don't take the (obvious) bait, retardshide the thread and move on
>>107716820>it's l-le baitCope. You and I both know that the rare earth metals in your computer deserve to be in a random GPU in an AI datacenter.
What a horrendous language.
>>107716816>compares with ==>get logical result>"see it's retarded javascript bad"
>>107717316Im not even a jeet. still having audacity to do any kind of racism in a thread you outed yourself as an absolute retard is a 60iq move you can except only from timmies. you're worse than jeets at having a sense of self
>>107717343Jeets earned that hatred, so I don't know what you're on about
>>107717148This would be more accurate if the guy on the left was Pakistani.
>>107717371has one of them shitted in your mouth? you seem to have a personal kinship with them while all your day is spent on a website with virtually no indian population but a bunch of timmies dragging the quality of discussion down, ironically by complaining about other races while being as stupid as the first poster itt. you see why I said white skin is a negative turmoil of intelligence on this website lately?

There's no way around this right? assuming no trust in remote server. I access my friends nas using ssh.>>107712762>do i definitely have to make an encrypted copy on my side before sending? (im low on space)
how to setup a NAS server using a raspberry pi?
this is correct, right? So screen tearing isn't harmful in anyway to my monitor or any other part?
>>107717135yes
what is a super light docx reader? looking for something similar like Everything's is to a Windows search
>A zoomer will now educate you on how the internet use to beWhy do zoomers pretend to be nostalgic for a time they never experienced?
I saw a youtube video about a zoomer being nostalgic for Windows Vista and damn near killed myself.
>>107717338He's confusing smartphones and social media changing people's relationship with the internet with people using the internet in general, most likely because he's too young to remember a world without either of those. Also trying to sidestep the third worlder issue because he doesn't want people to call him racist.
>>107717386vista turns 20 in some months
>>107717441It wasn't a passage of time thing, actually unlike most people time passes slower for me as I age so I don't have that problem, I meant that he liked it at all. I was still reasonably young and impressionable at the time too but would never want it back.
I don't even know what's worse, if zoomers glorifying a distorted memory of internet slop or millennials pretending there's pride and honor in having used rotary phones. Both equally cringe and fagged up. kys already.
Why did it fail? It's been over 4 years in development...

>>107715599saaaar
>>107715418they thought copying GNOME and using Rust would compensate for their horrendous development team. considering the massive amount of complaints I've heard the last year or so about their hardware I'm assuming they're just not a very good company in general.
>>107717028Depends how many people they have. Creating a functional desktop environment is not a small task unless you have some turbo autistic developer.
>>107715418The absolute state of Linux makes me want to just say fuck it and buy a Mac.

This is how much they ask for a shitty 2TB SMR drive, fucking insane, I remember buying 8TB for 180 euros literally some months ago.
>>107716446people don't actually pay 7 euros a month for hard drives, right
we are never going back to cheap computer parts. Thats it. normies dont give a fuck, they have their phones for internet on the go, tablets for video slop and their $500 laptop they use once a week to send one email. If you were not poor, you wouldn't care about $1500 ram kits and $400 1TB ssds either.

If your device could use eye tracking without camera video or identifying you, how would you feel? I'd be fine with it. Seems like a cool new way to interact with users
>>107709311fuck retards who use this for UI designthey always test on people who have never used an application/computer and optimize for the first time experiencefor people who have spent a few minute using the application they dont give a fuck if usability is bad as long as the drooling retard eye tracking test disagreesgnome and mozilla devs are some of the worst offenders here
>>107716557>I always switched channels whenever there were commercials.Damn this guy's good
>>107709311>eye trackingLead by example, shill. Make sure to wear an eye tracker 24/7 so that your employer can monitor your productivity at all times.What possible reason would you have against this? It's "pretty cool" and encourages employee interaction.
>>107717218This, faggot fuck tech shit will always be used against you in the end. Everything is for the purpose of making you better goyim.
>>107709311>If your device could use eye tracking without camera video or identifying you, how would you feel?How exactly is supposed to do that?The Force?How would I feel?I'd feel; like I'm being scammed.
