What's the best 2025 laptop
>>107715271I mean it’s been decades that Mac owned the music production segment of computing. It absolutely will be you best bet by far, I’ll be honest I don’t even know all the Apple eco system or what it cost but I know the 30 or so people I know who makes music have Mac’s.
Just check any top10 of whatever you need to use it
>>107715574thanx will definitely be investing in an m4 max this tax season
>>107715271Well, you can use whatever you want. I know some musicians witn windows laptops and I run windows on my desktop computer. Working with audio is better on macos due to how audio drivers work. But overall it's pretty similar.
>>107715622Np I wouldn’t jump on a m4 til you know exactly how much better the m5 is. Apple goes nuts sometimes and actually makes massive jumps that make their previous products a dead cope. Plan accordingly to apples development cycles.
Alright well since firefox is doubling down on implementing ai in their browser and theyre completely ignoring their user base professing how they dont want it. Which is the better fork of firefox to flee to? Im considering waterfox or librewolf since both are likely not to implement the new aislop bloat. Recently heard about this floorp browser too but its new to me and idk anything about it. Plus the name sounds gay as fuck which is the only reason im suspicious of it, the name alone already sounds like its begging to be abandoned but thats just my surface level take
is it possible to disable url bar autofocus when opening new tab in firefox?
I'm giving ungoogled chromium a try, seems decent so far and much more performant on my shitty Windows 10 IoT laptop I use when I'm away from home. Ladybird better not be a fucking bust I swear to God.
>>107702902I've tried it, they still spy on me and show me recommendations on jewtube based on what I type or what pages I visit.I bet they will even show me a video of 'firefox alternatives' on jewtube after I've visited this thread.
Librewolf + Startpage is an AI free experience.
librewolf just doesnt function on the modern internet, its not its fault, but regular things like youtube wont load right

I made this wallpaper 10 years ago while blackout drunk and I don't ever recall sharing it online (probably did multiple times on this board, but that period is a blur, lol) and just found it in a folder. I don't even remember what program I used, I just remember fine-tuning the shit out of that concentric gradient.

Anybody else experience random freezes on Void Linux? It will freeze and mouse and keyboard will not work and I have to reboot with power button. The caps lock light flashes which I think indicates kernel panic.I installed Void many times and this seems to be a recurring issue. Installed it on Thinkpad X220.
Assume my computer is airgapped and has a faraday cage around it. Can the government spooks still get into it?
>>107712449yes.this is RoboBee, a tiny robot insect that is available to the public.now extrapolate what the spooks have thats far superior, that can fly into your home undetected and video you while you work on your PC, it can get passwords, everything.you cant stay home forever. once you leave the spooks can break in armed with passwords, take whats on your computer and you'll never know.sleep well
>>107712449yeah they can raid your mom's basement
>>107712463But that's wrong you faggot. No one ever "got into" his systems. He personally blew them up, and that only after the nigger he was entertaining did typical nigger shit wif day sail foam.

>>107715761they were on 17nm just a few months ago
were they a stroke of genius or a mistake? and how come no-one ever tried implementing rational numbers in hardware?
>>107710266>it's also extremely non trivial to implement transcendental functions like sin, tan, log, atan etc.They're not trivial whatever you're doing. Fortunately, the hardware implementation of floating point already has the table-driven solutions for you; the equivalents for fixed point math are quite complex groups of functions, and rationals aren't any better.You can do a better if you do exact real arithmetic, but that can't be hardware-accelerated as there's no guaranteed upper bound on the memory required to represent a number (and the representations are... exotic.)
>>107714235>Some languages like lisps have rationals as first-class language features and they work really well.Except the denominators tend to grow really large in any real world code, despite normalization. If you're serious about rationals, you need to start with bignum support and go from there, and that pretty much destroys any chance at getting useful hardware support; you're making arithmetic ops be things that require allocating memory.
>>107709755>how come no-one ever tried implementing rational numbers in hardware?Implementing rational arithmetic in software is an exercise for CS undergraduates, as is finding out why it doesn't work without bignums (unless you have some way to approximate, which gets you back to floating point).Actual exact real arithmetic libraries represent numbers as generators that issue the digits of the number one at a time as required. There's a few ways to handle the internal state of those things; the most common one involves infinite continued fraction series, but that has some evil edge cases where it can take a long time to decide on the next digit. (Worse, those cases tend to come up fairly often; the square root of 2 is one such case if my memory's right.) There's another approach that uses 4-tensors that's better at deciding digits, but it breaks my brain; I definitely can't explain it. None of that stuff can be done entirely in hardware.
>>107709755The idea of representing numbers with a scale factor, ex. scientific notation, goes way back and this is "just" a hardware implementation of that concept. That said, it is still very clever.
>>107711511>>107711610Because of this thread I spent the better part of the day digging into posits. Conceptually they seem very elegant and I especially like the power of 2 reciprocals and how results saturate to the minimum/maximum representable values without underflowing to 0.But holy fuck do most of the writing surrounding it read like schizo time cube cultist nonsense.

>>107710956>>107711112Actually, fuck it. Maybe you're right and a PWA is a good idea. There's a thing called Capacitor apparently which can basically wrap up your PWA in a web view and you can put it in app stores.I just came across some scrolling behaviour which is easy to achieve in a web browser, with scroll-snap, but I couldn't implement it with React Native. It's probably possible if I dig into their gestures system but fuck that.
