Am retard that tried to install Cachy from a Live disk. During the session I removed the disk. I tried to put it back and have it finish. It did, but now when I restart, it always fails to "kernal sync". Keeps timing out then it just shows color specs on the screen.It'll only boot to try and start cachy off the disk, but it never full boots.If I take out the disk, it can't find a bootable OS on the HDD.How do I fix this?It's a really old laptop so it's not crucial. Just thought I'd breathe life into this 15 y/o PC, but I really botched that install.

do i really need a VPN to torrent? ive been doing this for over 10 years now from movies to games and its not like i got spam mailed or anything, is there really a threat to not using a vpn?
for torrenting somewhere that cares about copyright(or getting around CGNAT) just use any VPN that port forwards. If you live somewhere that doesn't care then just send it

>>108510655>In NA, ISPs can forward threatening e-mails to you from the copy right holders, and some cucked ISPs can impose penalties if you are caught too many timesIn Europe lawyers from the copyright holders are monitoring IPs from torrents and calling the responsible ISP. Your ISP will then give out your data (name+address) directly, so these lawyers can hold you responsible directly.That's the difference between EU and USA
I ddl'd a bunch of PS2 games off myrient no VPN and my internet stopped connecting days later, should I be worried. I had to switch to a pocket wifi I got for travel.
>>108512190I think they block torrenting
This year's Debian Project Leadership election has only ONE candidate and it's a Pajeeta (Sruthi Chandran):>She is inactive on the mailing lists, and her Salsa profile is private so we can't even see what her coding contributions are.>She's run for DPL 4 times before; lost each time>Her entire platform is just about diversity and bitching about cis males>She intends to formally incorporate Debian in the US, which would force Debian to introduce age verificationHer only claim to fame is organizing DebConf23, an event where a Debian developer literally fucking DIED because basic health & safety measures were not followed.A much more qualified candidate was hospitalized during the nomination window and couldn't apply in time, yet she has refused to reopen nominations.Debian is FUCKED unless the Debian developers all vote NOTA (None of the above).

Can someone identify what sort of software setup this guy is using to manage to get this volume at this quality this fast https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzJfXpOnKoUIt's 90 minutes worth of pretty good and consistent looking frames every 1-2 days, something that could do batch generation? Or even just the model he's using to get this look, is it showing any telltale signs of prompts, styles etc, I'm assuming he's genning them locally

>>108501843There may be reasons as to why we have so many alternatives to Photos out there, including re-enabling the classic Windows 7/Vista version.>>108499063Disable Tamper Protection before attempting to disable Defender Realtime Scanner in Group Policy or with registry edits. It will stay disabled forever that way. I don't remember if they tried making it harder to disable in an update, so best take care of this on a new IoT LTSC install without updating at any point before disabling Defender.

>>108510032Read a dictionary, pablo. Words have meanings.
>>108506940And dozens upon dozens of lazy devs hard-coded their colors.There are custom themes for Win11 that dark theme Win32 UI, and Microsoft could do the same. But because of those lazy devs they don't want to open up to the liability of some corposlave having issues using software from 1997 they need to use in dark mode because whoever wrote it back then didn't give a shit about respecting the Win32 API so we're stuck in the decades old Windows bodge parade. Bring your own dark theme! (warranty void if used)
If Microsoft has ANY SENSE, they build on the success of the .NET/C# team.Develop a WinForms successor that is cross platform, Windows/Mac/Linux. Exportable to the web as well kind of like Avalonia. Simple drag and drop style native UI design with the ability to tweak and refine in the code. Make this a part of the transition to native UI.This shit would do numbers and wreck the current landscape. Everyone is dead fucking tired of working on front end sloppo for even the smallest apps and internal tools. The OG WinForms was a gateway drug for getting into C# itself because it was so easy and streamlined to work with for any kind of basic app.
>>108506940Man I miss that. Wow Id forgotten.
>>108495627>>108497038>>108506922There's no tic-toc rule. Everything after 7 was shit.10 is often considered "good" simply because it's a better experience than 8/8.1, but still worse than 7 in every way other than better compatibility with modern hardware and software.I'd argue even Vista is overall better than 10 and the only reason Vista is shat on is "poor" compatibility because people were trying to run it on their ancient XP toasters. 7 was the only Windows after XP that MS improved in all sectors: compatibility, performance, features and experience. Everything else after if drops the ball in at least two of those areas.

>>108512120Yup, not as pronounced as my version, but it seems to do an okay job of it.Back in 2010-2012, when I decided to mock the Macintosh screenshots that were shared here on /g/, I don't think even KDE was adding drop shadows to their screenshots. I love that 4chan allows PNG transparency like a bro, though. It just makes images pop right out of the thread.>complicated99% of it is a single imagemagick line. Everything else is fluff I have added and tweaked over 15 years. I also enjoy the portability of the drop shadow scripting wise. ezpz

Is it a controversial opinion on /g/ to say that I preferred when TVs didn't have their own OS frontend?I'm not saying linear TV didn't have it's problems but at least it always felt like it did what I wanted, not what it thought I wanted.The golden middle-ground was when you connected a streaming stick to a HDMI port on your dumb-TV.
>>108505954Its still like that if you either don't connect it to the internet, use a launcher / ADB tweaks in Android, root Webos / Use adguard/pihole I can't speak for Samsung's TV OS but I think that can be rooted as well But yes the UIs are garbage and its because they need to show you ads and collect data to make any money on the TVs now as the hardware profit margain is razor razor thin
>>108505954Just buy an oversized monitor instead of a TV or simply don't buy a TV at all
why is everyone on /g/ - Technology a luddite?
>>108505954>Is it a controversial opinion on /g/ to say that I preferred when TVs didn't have their own OS frontend?no.
>>108505954It's not a controversial opinion I guess. Specially given that it's kinda like the epitome of rampant consumerism: What you get is shit by default, and when it gets shitty AND disfunctional because of a lack of support caused by the fact that your product gets "old" you are supposed to replace it by something else, despite the fact that it will still be able to display images just fine.Software and a screen shouldn't be in the same package, and if it's done then the execution should be perfect, which is precisely the opposite of what is going on.Personally I'm a jobless bum but when I get enough money to live on my own my idea is getting one of those non-smart comercial screens and hook it up to a PC built on an ITX case running linux configured to be a media center or something similar.
