>>106871098Soldered RAM is good though. It's basically a must for high speeds due to signal integrity constraints.Considering integrated graphics and people wanting to do things like inference on their laptops, memory bandwidth is quite crucial, so it makes sense to just buy the maxed out version of the motherboard and go from there.
>>106870484Looks similar to my work laptop, which is a 15 inch thing. I hope it's not intel, because mine has a bunch of firmware and hardware bugs, and throttles constantly.
Hey. I'm extremely poor and need a laptop. Which model is the best for running Linux and doing C programming? Not going to do any kind of gaming or high end computational stuff. Need it good enough for it to at least be able to play youtube videos.
>>106872481i7 1260p. I'm gonna lower the power limits a littlie anyway so that shouldn't happen, the thing will mostly be CPU encoding animu anyway so I might even disable the T550 unless I feel like some emulated PS Double or something.

I put btrfs on the data ssd in my mini pc home server so I can snapshot + borg backup to external hdd (ext4) easily. Being able to detect bitrot is nice. Single data and duplicate metadata + system so at least metadata errors can be healed.Eventually I'd like to build a NAS with at least 2 mechanical drives running ZFS which should be the main protected ground truth data pool but for now btrfs on a single ssd is probably better than nothing.
>>106868703
>>106871789even on a single drive btrfs can protect you from mistakes (snapshots) and tell you about corrupted files (so you can restore them from a backup rather than letting them propagate to backups).you can also easily convert it to a raid1 later on by just adding another drive to that btrfs volume and running a balance on it. btrfs has the most flexible raid out of anything out there, there's no planning or commitment required, it will adapt to whatever you need the moment you need it

How do websites store billion of accounts in a database, won't they cost a lot of storage?

>>106871283>she's rolling her own authstill a red flag. you are getting hacked.use firebase.
>>106870928Of course not, but he's making a good point. Let's say for example it's 200 characters per account, enough for basics, that's still just 400GB which fits on any computer these days. With a BILLION accounts which only the top 10 biggest services have.>>106872496>she's rolling her own auth>still a red flag.It's not hard, anon.>use firebase.Terrible idea, if you can't do basic auth, you can't configure firebase. As evidenced by the thousands of insecure firebase sites.
>>106870885data in a relational database is usually really compact unless you're doing something wrong. at some point once you max out your hard drive, databases have to be scaled, by storing parts of the database across many different servers.In general these kinds of situations have already been abstracted away and managed database services do it for you "so you don't have to".

I've been helping to lower programmers wages in the US to make them similar to EU wages.
The only "grown up" jobs I've ever held have been as a radioman in the navy (I'm a 10 year vet!) and more recently I landed something at one of the big MIC companies.What I've heard about "real" jobs terrifies me and even now having a job at a big company, really, I've never worked a normal job ever and have no fucking clue how I'd get by if I had to get a real job for a proper adult. The last time I had a "real job" it was washing dishes at a local cafe.
Actually,>posted in another thread "i've never fired a rocket launcher" as a joke>had to consider seriously for a moment if that's something that could impact the future of my career that's just me being stupid though, I'm childish because I've never held a real job, but at the same time, I do have to think once in a while "I know vaguely how a rocket launcher works, but not how to fire one safely myself" and how to fire one properly might enter a planning document I write one day about some piece of retarded equipment I wanna procure or modify, and that feels bad. It feels weird, and childish, and as proud of myself I am for getting by this long, it leaves me a big pang of guilt that my job is so stupid and not relatable to the real worldlike, a month or so ago, I was rigging up a duty belt and extra rigging for all the crap I have to carry in a boat, just for myself, but with the thought that maybe I could monetize that. Then I thought "Who the fuck needs a specialized tacvest for being in a boat? Even I'm only there like once a month, and only carry all of this crap because of other failures in myself and in the system that puts me there." And on top of that, I can't wear armor with an auto-inflating life vest, but that's a whole other series of problems that never come up yet seem ever-present.
I posture as a hard motherfucker but really I'm a big softieit's cliche, but it's a cliche for a reason

Didn't see a qtddtot.I bought a cheap second hand laptop (Dell XPS 15 9560 with a non-functional battery) for my cousin since his parents are fuck ups who pawned their computer for booze money. I've never opened a laptop before but I figured putting a new battery in can't be too hard. Anyway, this is what it looked like when I popped the back off.Am I right in assuming all that pinkish-grey stuff between the fans and the (I think) vents from the heatsink is dust that I can safely brush off with a toothbrush or pull away with a pair of tweezers?Right now my plan is brush away the worst of the dust then just blast the whole thing with a can of compressed air. Is there anything I should know before that? Any parts I should be careful of?Anything else worth doing before I hand the laptop over to him? There's some brown gunk that's hardened on the inside of the laptop case, maybe thermal paste? Don't know if that's worth replacing.
>>106872345Use a soft clean brush and a vacuum cleaner>inb4 static electricityIt's a meme
>>106872345Laurie has a laptop.How much pubic hair do you think she has in her laptop?
This hair doesn't look that weird, it probably pulled it in from whatever surface it was sitting on via the intakes. If you want to blast the fan with compressed air, I recommend unplugging it, and making sure you don't let it spin up too fast, go in bursts with pauses in between. I managed to use compressed air to cause the fins of a laptop fan to explode once. It was fun but you'd need to find a replacement and swap it in afterwards, otherwise it will not move any air around and cause the whole thing to throttle like crazy.Also, if the laptop has been used for years, you might want to consider replacing thermal paste. Just have some high concentration IPA and a paper towel on hand to clean the existing stuff off, make sure the new stuff spreads over the entire die to prevent it from burning up, and don't overtighten the screws to not crack it, because that would kill it entirely.
>>106872370>Use a soft clean brush and a vacuum cleanerabsolute pussy move. grab a lighter or a soldering machine and burn that shit out
Why bother when the parents will just instantly sell it for more booze money? Most functional wh*te family. India wins again saars
