What is the oldest piece of tech you use for personal reasons instead of practical reasons?For example, I use a manual typewriter for creating first drafts of stories. Something about it helps me be more productive at creative writing.
I use 50+ year old electronics components in some of my projects, like old 74 series logic. I have some variable capacitors that are likely pushing 70. Couple of those live in my shortwave radio.
Arenas are the new hot programming meme.Despite this, you can't implement an arena backed up by a statically allocated buffer in C and C++ without violating strict aliasing rules.
>another thread full of low IQ posts. Fuck sake. >>106869953This is wrong. You're retarded and don't know C.
>>106865259>Arenas are the new hot programming meme...For the last 30 years. I learned about these in school and I'm out of training.
>Arenas are the new hot programming meme.for retarded C++ retards
>>106868281Then? How do you actually use it? How do you use it for multiple types? How do you allocate and reclaim storage on it?So far, it's no different than declaring a static unsigned char array in C.>>106869112Maybe because the built-in solutions are often not good enough.

I've noticed this weird modern trend with games but especially with programs, where if it stops receiving updates then people abandon it.What causes this weird mindset of needing constant updates?
>>106870919I suppose that makes sense, but i'm talking about innocuous stuff, the example I use is MPC-BE, a good video player that people recommend you don't use because there's no more updates
>>106870975I suspect its cultural diffusion. Enough people work in those sectors that interact with other projects, or end up working in other sectors and bring that mindset along with them, or contribute to open source, and those ideas get passed around subconsciously and it ends up like that study with the monkeys and the ladder.Probably also has to do with the fact that many software ecosystems like Python, Java, and Node.js, are just low quality, so if you ever stop updooting then you freeze the process of it slowly become less shit over time.
>>106869100>>106869189software cannot be in a finished state so long as the dependencies it requires keep changing underneath it.Just take any linux software repo, look back to a commit snapshot dating back even 5 years and try compiling without getting errors.
>>106869100I come back if it fixes problems that I had. Same reason why I want the newest KDE there are a couple of issues that still haven't been fixed and I am hoping it will be.

What's the future of technology in the next 15 years? Privacy concerns aside, I don't want to live in a world where there are software updates for my fridge and car, will there be alternatives somehow?

Comp sci student, don't want to have to collect a thousand different notebooks alongside my x220. Is it time to get an iPad?

>>106864740>Is it time to get an iPad?I often notice that a good portion of my classmates take digital notes. They copy everything attentively, yet it makes no difference with regards to actually understanding what they've copied. This is reflected by the fact that they don't perform any better on exams. Though I suppose this could just be confounded with the possibility that they believe that copying the notes verbatim is enough for them learn something. Might be sufficient for helping them know what to do on assignments, but it's gone come exams and the final. >>106864752Personally, I find myself retaining information better when I'm studying on my own and working on a whiteboard. It's easy to just find yourself copying the textbook essentially word for word, and knowing I'll just erase everything forces me to just write what's important. I end up tossing my notes anyway. >>106864868Dollar store notebooks feel like shit to type on, and sometimes smell like ass--could just be a homeless Amerishart who wiped their ass on the notebook due to lack of toilet paper. Why the fuck do Americans cut down all these trees for, only to produce shitty paper?
>>106864740OneNoteyou don't even need a pen/tablet if you have a good enough mouse to free-hand the equations, and its built-in "ink to math" is really good at figuring out what you've scribbled and turning it into a formula you can then copy and paste into a document, or keep it in your notesand the obvious advantage of digital notes over pen and paper is that you can easily move stuff around to better organize it

These retarded esl poor browns and trannies ruined this website
Paid $375 for these. Did I get ripped off?
>>106870831Anon I hate to tell you this but you could have spent $200 for a Lenovo or Dell SFF shitbox and spent the extra $100 for a beefier GPU if you're aiming for low to mid gaming.Here's one with on older i7, 32gb RAM, 1TB SSD + 2TB HDD, and an old GT1030 for $360 https://a.co/d/3eCAZkb and if you wanted to get real creative try to get one of these bad boys 3D printed https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6900555 it will free up internal space so you can get a much longer low profile GPU in there.Anyways not trying to make you have buyer's remorse but I would definitely cancel that order if you can and try to get a little more creative about your build. No shame in having a poorfag build, I had one for ages and still did badass shit on it but don't let yourself get ripped off so early.
>>106870831>>106871271Another example would be this Dell Optiplex https://a.co/d/c6MRULB and this low profile RTX 3050 https://a.co/d/ejVSiDu though the Optiplex doesn't get the full GDDR6 speed and preformance and needs a RAM upgrade it still would be a lot beefier

>>106869276All troons in software are political saboteurs and they always try to take over projects through these antics
>>106869202Nigger.You're the reason that we don't have the multithreaded evaluator in mainline Nix.
>>106869202The silver lining to all this is that we live in a time when the most selfish and evil people are making lifestyle and fashion choices that mark them like a brand for everyone to see

This is the best linux distro>stable compared to windows 10>just werks with the latest software and drivers>best package manager on linux to date>minimal bloat, just what you want and nothing else>got a problem? use timeshift There's nothing else to use and its relatively easy to insall.Let me say this, linux is different than windows but the install is no more difficult vs windows 10's install.Just use fucking arch
>>106870695In the linux world, "stable" means all your packages are out of date, "unstable" means your packages are new.In the OC world "stable" means your PC works well, "unstable" means your PC crashes.
archinstall and archiso derivatives were the worst thing to happen to arch. 95% of the community are shitters and troons.
>>106870877>muh gated communitythere is always gentoo :^)
>>106870877Just don't use them, nobody's making youInstalling Arch is trivial using the guide
The only thing that ever made Arch cool was you had to do it yourself and you could be proud to run itNow it's a baby distro, Arch = Ubuntu baby distro for retardsit's too easy to installget a real distro that's hard and I'll give you props mintbaby
