>>107685126North Holland, specifically the Amsterdam area and outlying land commonly referred to internationally as 'Holland' is actually, together with Utrecht, one of the LEAST relevant provinces of the Netherlands.South Holland and Zeeland are relevant for the enormous agricultural yields of its glass houses and the international port of Rotterdam. Twente for its university of agriculture, which is one of the top universities in the field in the world.Groningen and partly Friesland for the enormous deposits of natural gas below their soil. (Literally some of the largest in the entire world.)Brabant is relevant because of the Eindhoven university of applied tech, because of ASML, because of Philips, and because of a whole nest of high-tech companies united under the regional 'Brainport' initiative that you've probably never heard of but that are active throughout modern heavy industry, medical automation, etc. - basically a lot of fields EXCEPT for the dead-end fields that are consumer electronics and consumer software services which no longer feature much market growth or potential for innovation.

>>107690681It's not just windows. Chrome does that too, scans whole drive every single day trashing the drive and uploads log to jeet mothership.
>>107691619>Yes they would I've used every major Windows version since 3.11.You have to be over 18 to post here.>7 is snappy running from a period correct 7200 RPM HDD.No it's not. With a 7200rpm drive they will, at best, manage to boot up on a fresh new install. If you use any modern application or even just an antivirus, they will slow down to a barely useable crawl. One of the first things we used to do when servicing Windows 7 machines was to change the boot drive to an SSD, fortunately they all use at most 500GB HDDs inside so it's easy to just do an image copy to a same size SSD, then run from that and have everything be 1000x faster.Shit, I have an old Turion laptop somewhere that took ten minutes to boot Win7 from a HDD, then I swapped one of my old spares in and now it's snappy as Speedy Gonzalez, I mean as long as you don't do anything that would require CPU calculations or use more than 2GB of RAM (so basically one browser tab only).
>>107690459Windows 10 1703 was the last version that worked somewhat fine with HDDs.

>>107690415Is it just perfectionism or something? I remember seeing a pixel art game on Steam made from assets completely genned with Dalle (which was obviously worse than what we have now in terms of pixel art genning) and it was fine.
I don't want to use Debian, shit installer and old packages, all CLI system managementI don't want to use arch, shit CLI installer, breakages and unstableI don't want to use fedora, broken and needs codecs retardation out of the box is brokenI don't want to use opensuse, killing off yast for no reason something that works for 20+ years now fragmentingI don't want to use mint, cinnamon sucks, ugly blue grey guhnome theming, nemo is slower than windows 10 FM, no KDE plasma and the devs are mentally I'll and don't care about their spinsI don't want to use arch derivatives, mentally ill shit like cachyOS or endeavour OS. Idiotic forks with no futureI don't want to use kubuntu or ubuntu. Broken snaps and apt package manager integrated with snaps by default.So that's it huh, desktop Linux is dead
>>107691900It's the most progress Linux has made in 15+ years unifying the desktop and getting ever so close to the coveted mythical year of the Linux desktop.Flatpaks for Normie's are great on Linux. One click install just works on every machine exactly the same, no fragmentation.KDE is also a good project because its a clean, good looking modern desktop that's fast, and a real competitor to windows 11
>>107691888I had an Nvidia card once. Then support was dropped and I had about 3 months where nouveau couldn't use it and the proprietary driver wouldn't either. But the main thing that made me say "Never again nvidia" was that I got sick of doing DKMS builds on every kernel update.Eventually I got rid of DKMS and just started a maintenance cycle of>drop to TTY1>/etc/init.d/lightdm stop / /etc/init.d/gdm stop>package manager to update kernel (or a kernel compile if I was doing something special)>update grub>reboot into new kernel (X will not start now and that's fine)>log back into TTY1>Nvidia installer>reboot into new kernel again>doneDKMS is a fragile gacha that sometimes would automagically work and sometimes it would still fuck up in unpredictable ways.
>>107691883>how well they support flatpak and kde with wayland.>kde is the future competitor to windows 11 so any distro that is clean out of the box with flatpaks and kde discover will be good.Can I have some of what you're smoking? I'd also like to utterly detach myself from any semblance of reality, like you have.
>>107691848>They just werk. Latest version of steam with the latest mesa drivers on flatpakno they don't stop spreading lies troon, flatpak steam is a crutch for dogshit distros who can't into multilib and proper driver support.
>>107691937But it's true doe.Valve is funding KDE so VRR and HDR just werk on Wayland compositors. They are also funneling money to flatpak devs working with KDE. The future is KDE Wayland with flatpaks as a competitor to windows. Everything else is quite irrelevant. KDE is much snappier and faster than windows and it looks much cleaner. My only complaint is the themes store they have built into the desktop, its tacky.
Jesus fucking christ, You used to be able to Google and find a detailed guide to troubleshoot something tech related now you would only get an answer from the AI and the rest of the results are just reddit threads but all replies are like subjective or " i dunno lol".
>>107691571"The Internet" for most people is 4-5 websites, it's grim. >>107691607I admit, I first came here in 2006 to escape regular forums and the faggot moderators that took themselves too seriously. But there was a lot of useful information you could find, especially for electronics and cars - repairs, mods etc.There were so many times I could find manufacturer documents to reference before buying something and DIY guides for repairing, modifying, flashing firmware etc. >>107691608Never been there but good for them, it's like a time machine.

I get your frustration but there's no solution in sight. Read Brzezinski's book Between Two Ages , Americas role in the Technetronic Era.It was published in the 70s by Carters security guy who formed the Trilateral Commission.It describes how they're gonna architect these digital solutions (the internet) along with social media (yes it was planned way ahead of time like all other things) to condition the stupid goyim, with the end goal being transhumanism.So if you think this gen-AI nonsense is disturbing you ain't seen nothing yet.Within 10+ years tech will be obsolete for non-conformists who refuse to accept the BMI (brain machine interface) they'll be selling to cure/fix the next currentThang, ID2030 along with the rest of Agenda 21.
