Free subdomain from https://freedns.afraid.org/ free ssl cert from https://certbot.eff.org/ IP cloaking by default + TOR hidden service support and modern ircv3 features like message history and offline messages from https://github.com/ergochat/ergo
Not too much more locking down needed, and all you have to supply to a third party to set it up is an email.

Adding to this, senpai halloy kiwiirc and goguma are ircv3 supporting clients that will let you have synced usernames and chat histories across devices when used with an ircv3 server like ergo, they are cli desktop web and mobile respectively with halloy and kiwiirc both having some media embedding support.
kiwiirc as a progressive web app is probably the most normie friendly since you're hosting it yourself with your ircd you can configure all the connection details automatically so they don't have to do more than enter a nick and password.

Daily reminder to 1 - backup your shit and 2 - REPLACE YOUR FUCKING SATA CABLES

I am so mad I can heat my home on anger alone. I spent the last 2 weeks re-installing the OS, software, drivers, running hardware checks on everything I could and whatever other "fixes" I could come up with. What was the reason the constant freezing/BSOD/hanging? - A FUCKING SATA CABLE for the OS HDD.

Don't be a retard like me.

It's a jab at the retards who pretend HDDs will always fail a particular way.
Keeping backups is infinitely better than actually trying to rely on the way a particular medium fails.
When I worked in DC maintenance about half of all HDDs disappeared with symptoms being "missing /dev/sdX"
Marginal HDDs are typically caught before they are completely dead but most of them don't survive the wiping.

>>108114822
I had an S23U and didn't really care for the pen whatsoever so you're kind of asking the wrong anon, but I suppose you'd have to fork over more money for the Ultra. There's also the S23U but that only has a year of support left. If you don't care about that, it's a somewhat cheaper stylus flagship.

I will say I actually really like the curved screen for everything except using the pen, so for this I'd probably go for the S24U. You inevitably drag the pen across the curve over and over and it's really fucking jarring.

you won't find one. the internet has fundamentally changed in both the way it's used and who is using it.

back in 2018 or so (after being a 4chan user since ~2005) i got fed up with the state of 4chan after the politicisation of fucking everything around the election. i tried something awful and found that it was identical shitty fucking post quality as on 4chan. political faggots cant shut the fuck up, just replace jew or nigger with capitalist or landlord and you have the exact same fucking post.
the days when the internet was a series of tubes connecting various random websites - geocities, thousands of specialised forums and isolated little communities - are gone. it turns out that it's a lot more convenient to just lump everything together, combine that with an economic culture that seeks to optimise and you end up with the vast majority of the internet being funneled through a very small number of websites owned by an even smaller number of companies.
back in the 2000s you could come to 4chan and be exposed to viewpoints from all corners of the internet, from various communities and forums, as well as 4chan producing tons of its own OC. OC isn't celebrated anymore anywhere. not just on the internet, but even fucking movies are less and less original, AI is the crown of recycling content cheaply.

best thing you'll find is some group of oldfags reminiscing about the old times. your best bet is to hope that things today change for the better

I'm sorry but i cant justify paying 15k$ for a cutting edge pc cuz memory cost as much as a bleeding edge GPU.

Ive been into computers and building them since i was 7 in 1997 and NEVER has a cutting edge build cost more then 9k$ at most!!!

Imagine paying 15k$ for something that will be dogshit in just 3 to 5 years for less money

This. Hell most games that use ray tracing or path traving werent designed for it from the ground up.

Just a 3080 will give u the same gaming experience as a 5080 but ull sacrifice the path tracing etc which doesnt matter cuz it looks like shit on most games due to the point i just made the game wasnt desgined aesthetically around it from ground up.

It's a good language for prototyping new language features. Quite a few of the modern features that people like in newer languages all came from Haskell.
Unfortunately, they had to make it immutable, so it's largely useless for real projects.

>>108114383
Monads arent even the hard or unwieldy part
>>
>>108114407
It's not monads that are hard. The hard part is designing your program to work in an immutable way. Even if GHC optimizes this to allow mutation, it still has a bigger burden mentally than allowing mutation.
Passing a state monad around gets annoying.
Haskell is really good for anything stream based, because you tend to not do direct mutation anyway. However, even SPJ said that "the next Haskell will be strict".
Lazy evaluation with modification is the best way to program, but if you make it immutable, then it adds a lot of mental overhead.

"are in". Haskell got most of it from ML, and because of the aborted Language of the Year event, a ton of programmers only encountered ML through Haskell. https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/influences.html is a good list and has typeclasses from Haskell, plus a bunch of other features that "are in" Haskell, but are listed as coming from other languages. Haskell has a ton of features that nobody cares about and that show up in no languages because the features are actually bad for anything but generating academic papers on how your intentionally retarded language is coping with its bad ideas.

Just tested this as an alternative for Discord and have to say it's actually pretty good. Encrypted chats, voice and screen share with unlimited quality and bitrate and you can host your own server if you want. It's open source and partly compatible with Matrix (devs claim they are working on making it fully compatible). Why did nobody of you faggots mention this as a Discord alternative before? Fuck Element, Teamspeak will be my future Matrix client.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as a “Discord server” is, in fact, not a server. It’s a Discord guild. Or more accurately, a glorified chatroom running on someone else’s actual servers.
What you’re calling a “server” is not a physical machine humming heroically in your closet. It is not a rack-mounted beast blessed by blinking LEDs and cable spaghetti. It is a UI container. A themed folder with emojis. A glorified group chat with roles. Many Discord users log into these so-called “servers” every day without realizing this. Through a bizarre twist of branding, Discord decided to call guild instances “servers,” and now millions of users genuinely believe they are system administrators because they made a channel called #general and gave their friend the “Moderator” role.
There really are servers. They exist. They live in data centers. They require cooling, redundancy, and people who actually know what a load balancer is. What you are managing is not one of them. You are clicking buttons in a web app. The “server” you claim to run does not allocate resources. It does not manage memory. It does not spin disks or virtualize workloads. It stores anime memes and arguments about game balance. The only thing it distributes efficiently is notifications at 3 AM.
A real server handles infrastructure. Your Discord “server” handles e-dating drama and poorly formatted announcements.
So please, for the love of networking terminology, stop acting like you’re running a data center because you added a bot and locked #announcements. All so-called Discord “servers” are, in reality, just Discord-hosted communities with admin permissions and an inflated sense of importance.
