If you buy a shitty enough screen sure. You can get LCD displays where the backlight will last 50 years though. The technology works. It can scale to arbitrary intensity and do it with good color rendition. It's only a question of cost. OLED doesn't work at any cost.

Run your tv for a few hours then touch the back of it and you’ll notice that it’s very hot. They put all the tvs very close to each other when they did the test. There must be a lot of heat around them.

My only problem is that the official repos are pretty limited and you either have to compile stuff yourself or "Trust Me Bro™"/use the AUR if you don't want to compile yourself.

Like, Firefox is an official repo, but Waterfox/et. al. forks aren't?

Incompatible packages. Retarded packages requiring different versions of python. I needed venvs at least. They are fine, uv etc just make it easier, it's basically the same thing. I guess you could do it yourself in various ways but why would I?
>>
>>107644051
None of that sounds like an issue with pip.
The complaint I have is that it doesn't recompute dependencies when installing additional packages into an existing venv. It does warn about this, though.

proprietary software is not inherently evil. There is nothing wrong with for example an indie game dev working on a game for months and then releasing it and wanting payment for it. Literally nothing wrong with that. Yes he has to keep the source code hidden and maybe even obfuscate the binary because if he didn't then people would just crack or download it for free. Yes he may need to put restriction checks in so you can only run it on one PC. Nothing here is evil, you are free to not buy it.

Imagine you called a banana farmer evil because after spending weeks and weeks harvesting his banana trees he was charging for them at the local market. Imagine telling him he should allow people to go up to his banana stand and just take as many bananas as they want without paying. Imagine trying to claim he could techincally still make money by selling the bananas for money, he would just also have to allow people to take them free of charge at the same time.

why are so many programming "help" groups like this? like, somebody will specifically opt into helping people, and then get frustrated when they dont do exactly what they expect. it constantly feels like im testing everyone's patience whenever i ask for help and its even harder trying to just learn everything myself, especially considering all the weird semantic differences in both the language itself and guides.

like i can imagine a full script in my head but i wouldnt know how to translate it into the language im currently using. and on the offchance that i *do* get the help needed, usually its just "oh just use the blah function", so its not like i just Dont Know How To Code or anything i just dont know the shit thats specific to the engine, and its not like i can just look it up in a glossary or something because the words can be totally different from language to language, like how "object" in one language can be "entity" in another, and object in *that* language refers to an object in an array or something, so theres just a huge language gap that i cant really cross without the help of others, which sucks because working with others sucks

I recently joined a C++ help group and while a bit particular about stuff, the help I got was great because they spoonfed me a bunch of C++ concepts, more each time I produced real examples of what I was trying to do.
Loved it honestly, I'll go back in a jiffy when I program in C++ again.

College is legit a scam. A couple months studying by yourself in a free library is worth more than years of shitty power point presentations and tens of thousands of dollars. It's only when you get to the top of the advanced classes which have special or difficult knowledge that it makes sense to have classes.

The part of collecting and probably selling all your shopping history to a third party.
>>
>>107641106
Stores already do that with their own apps. When you're close to the store, the prices for products magically drop, but when you enter the store, they magically raise back up. Even with shopping apps like Instacart, they set the price based on an algorithm, so you can pay a higher price than someone using the app right next to you. Once you realize that 100% of shit in this world is fake & gay, you stop caring.
