do you mean 1TB?
it's done "in hardware", but you shouldn't trust that shit.
an analogy: in some cases software sends commands to simply "delete" encryption keys from SSDs, but there is research that shows that "hardware encrypted" data can be recovered, and keys are reused or insecure keys are used once and once again.
just run dban or

dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/your-ssd

I have an ye olde Win7 install on one of my older computers, but I haven't booted into that in like 8 years.
Linux gets everything done, I need computers for, and does it better than Windows ever did.
The only striking argument in favor of Windows these days is, that it comes pre-installed with ready-built computers.

That only applies to the lossy encoder and even then only when comparing it to the recent jpegli JPG encoder. Apparently this is some kind of 1337 tech knowledge but Webp can not only do lossless but lossless animations and outperforms PNG and GIF.

So even if it sucks against jpegli JPG, it's still 66% better for the web on average wasting tremendous amount of space with PNG/GIF.

In fact just to prove a point, I was able to compress your JPG (likely encoded with regular turbo libjpeg) to about half the filesize and even improve the quality after sending it to waifu2x. None of this was CLI btw and was done with my phone with squoosh and a website version of waifu2x.

i doubt it
but at worst just pay family or a friend to buy another

How accurate is the temperature shown on these cheapo table clocks? I'd like to buy one just to have an idea of the temp inside some rooms, the humidity would also be nice.
I'd appreciate some suggestions too if you own/know an accurate one, the cheaper the better because I need like 3-4. As long as they're within 1-2C from the real thing it would be great.

The only valid argument I see against VA is black smearing.

>>107656119
Never tried ips mini led on a monitor, but I'm a bit traumatized from that tech because I remember buying some ips tv from LG that did have local dimming but the amount of zones was so small that watching any dark scene was a fucking shitfest in terms of blooming.
I would probably only consider one if it has lots of dimming zones. With va blooming is naturally less of an issue but obviously not as good as oled
That said I'm not sure what everyone is talking about concerning shit viewing angles on VA because I'm not really noticing that on mine.

>>107656150
It's hardly valid anymore. 2 years ago 240hz VA monitors entered the market for less than $200 which have next to zero smearing left.
Lower refresh rate ones such as Samsung Odyssey series VA panels have no smearing left because their response times fall entirely within the 1/165 window

>>107655993
We're talking about VA not TN, there isn't that much shift with viewing angles. You're sitting in front of your screen, right? You not trying to game at an obtuse angle, are you? Then you'll be fine

>>107656177
MiniLED is based. My VA has uh a little over 1000 zones I think and the effect is great, there's a small amount of blooming with say text on a black screen but the monitor is tuned well enough that it isn't intrusive, it almost just looks like a blooming effect of the eye

I used to have a screen with like 8 dimming zones though and it was the worst shit ever

>>107654468
For me, I got sick of wearing out light swiches. They don't make them like they used to. So now lights turn on and off when I move around the house. Extraction fans turn off after a timeout period. Dashboard tablet displays weather forecasts, flood conditions, weather radar stuff. I ain't into signing up to cloud services, this all works offline.
Its a hobby I suppose.

In my experience, the apps and extensions that connect to the password manager cache database, in an encrypted form I suppose. While I cant make changes when its offline, it still sort of works.

>how do i learn networking?
for me it was under duress of the only IT internship i could get in my last year of uni. I wasnt a fan of networking and was stuck with it for ~5 years

There is a lot, like firewalls, routing (BGP vs OSPF, others...), tunneling, vlans, trunking, link aggregation, load balancing, ssl decryption, port filtering; there's more one could add but the list goes on

I think the best way is to either pick up some old cheap physical appliances and play with them or spin up some VMs and play with them. Pick you're poison: cisco, juniper, palo alto, fortinet, check point; they're all different and have different capabilities much like comparing two programming languages

You can even get a very basic grasp on simple consumer shit like TP-Link routers and switches (ER605 & SG108E, respectively) but its nowhere close to as in depth as you'll get from business-class manufacturers

>>107655873
I actually kind of like the glass stuff. I don't like how buttons have less useful area and so iPhones don't get five or six buttons at the bottom of the phone anymore, but the readability hits aren't as bad as I thought because I mostly know what buttons' labels say anyway, so I don't really need to read the button label if there's something gnarly underneath it.
I'm actually coming around to the opinion that Alan Dye's Liquid Glass thing is overhated. It deserves to be hated, but not _quite_ as much as it's hated.

>The arch had a problem that you need to have correct/updated certs.
Updating the certs manually is trivial, anon. The only reason this doesn't happen on slackware is that there's only one certificate from one guy who doesn't expect to get mogged because his distro is irrelevant at this point.

There's a lot of birds that can swim, you need jeet. You'd know if you went outside.

Windows is a good metaphor for microsoft. They can look in and spy on you all they want when you think about it.

Penguins eat mostly fish, sky birds eat bugs, seed, sometimes bread and slop like that.
Least retarded sky birds eat frogs which isn't a very big upgrade, birds that know how to catch fish and can fly do dive underwater by the way, enjoy your bugs and keep fearing the deep, vast ocean full of food that you never wanted anyway, bugged, söy eating jeet.

Videogame cartridges and discs from my childhood.

Years ago I lent a relative Metroid Prime, Pikmin 2, and the Zelda Collector's Edition disc. Fucker never returned them and lost them. This year I bought replacements off Ebay just to avoid having the empty boxes. Metroid Prime freezes due to a scratch but if I want to play I'll just emulate. I just really wanted the discs back in the box.

This seems like the perfect place to ask this: what does gookbench actually measure?

iOS users value smoothness, reliability, taste, over pure cheapness, feature availability. The former qualities are alien to Indians. I've been thinking a lot about the Apple/Microsoft split and why they flock to the latter, it's the same thing. They have no innate concept of a seamless, performant system that just works and is a pleasure to use therefore they don't value and buy it.
