I like both for different reasons. 4.7 is smarter and tends to stick to the prompt more closely. Often to an autistic degree which sometimes leads to issues with cards that aren't tightly written. 4.6 feels more flexible and creative out of the box.
But I've had a lot of success with 4.7 here as well after adjusting my older cards to cover for that.

This simple idea of having 2 USB-C ports CANNOT be done because it stops the zoomer from buying wireless ear buds(battery inside will always go to shit and unusable in ~3 years)

and you would be stuck using extremely affordable, high quality audio headphones or in ear buds(that are a bit too green for the planet in 2026)

also the 3.5mm headphone jack looks like a penis that goes inside a hole and basically why aren't you a wireless, constantly charging gay trans in 2026 right now.

The Sovereign Tech Agency (Germany) funded $562,800 (half a million) worth of development on ALPM (Arch Linux Package Management) work. That work was focused, almost entirely, on creating “Rust libraries and tools” for Arch package management which “aims to maintain compatibility with pacman”. As of this moment, the Rust ALPM has not replaced Pacman entirely. But common sense would indicate that replacement is a goal (otherwise the heavily funded development would be nonsensical).

By the way, existing Arch package management tools (such as Pacman) are licensed under the GPL. The new, Rust-based libraries and replacements are licensed under the MIT license.

Older English literature used the em dash a lot more than now but still somewhat sparingly. You can write very effective sentences with it which no other punctuation can fill in. I think pre 1990s high schoolers actually learned how to use it. Now few learn it so they never use it. I actually see people use ellipses more when an em dash was what should have been used, because public education never gets around to finer points of grammar

I did something similar and picked up at AT&T CLP99387. It's still hooked up to the Obihai, but it also connects to my cell via Bluetooth for calls and contacts.

How do I replace a screen on T60p?

I can't find a replacement screen unless I pay like 500 quid for one for some reason which I'm not gonna do obviously.

Is there a place for replacement parts in the UK that doesn't charge half a grand?

Could I use a T60 screen on a T60p?

Is it a straight forward job?
>>
>>107839390
I got one on eBay but that was years ago. Shipping would probably be horrendous. 14" or 15"?

Once you have it all, you have nothing, back when I was a kid I used to be obsessed with computers and upgrading from one shitty GPU to another shitty GPU felt massive and adding more ram unlocked new possibilities, now that I have a pretty beefy PC, I don't feel like upgrading because it runs everything I want, I literally don't care about new hardware because it doesn't offer me anything, modern games are all shitty slop not worth playing, modern windows is a bloated clusterfuck made by jeets and modern hardware is a joke, an expensive joke thanks to AI, crypto and manchildren

I got really into overclocking when I was a teenager because of this, I couldn't afford to upgrade so had to squeeze every last drop of performance out of what I had. Now I can just buy the fastest thing possible without really worrying which just results in the computing equivalent of anhedonia.

What do you mean by "ENTERPRISE status" and why does it matter?
>>
Dotnet being proprietary and single platform prevented me from having the motivation to learn it. I only did that after they released and ported core. A language isn't useful to learn or write in if computers can't execute it.
I imagine I'm not alone in this. C# has existed for a long time now but I think wider spread adoption was stunted by its closed begining. So they have a lot of catching up to do in that regard compared to other languages like Java.
Which is kind of frustrating for me personally because I really like PowerShell and wish I had learned it sooner. Although the utility of it and what I appreciate today is only related to the modern versions so it wouldn't have mattered then, it only matters to me now. But that means for like a decade I put 0 thought into their entire ecosystem of tools, languages, libraries, etc. and contributed nothing to it myself. I imagine some other people have had the same kind of experience.

Is that the highest end model? That's like 30% slower than the M4 max and I know the 395 is around the same. (The 470 is irrelevant because AMD is skipping the high end this gen, again, for whatever fucking reason.)

Also snapdragon being almost competitive is surprising, too bad it's about to be eclipsed by M5 max and will also have zero software support outside of a dysfunctional windows port
