>microsoft shuts down Media Player CD Info servers just as the kids get back into CDswhy do they do ithttps://www.theregister.com/2026/01/09/microsoft_windows_media_player_forgets/
>>107829961Who the fuck uses Anything Microsoft included in the OS? Every time I used windows my first endeavor was to replace every function with a better app. Instead of WMP I'd use Winamp.
>>107829961nobody under 30 uses windows and zoomers dont own optical drives
>>107829961>omg that brittle JEWEL CASE>those printed paper inserts that smell like cancer>that slow transfer speed and delay>that accidental damage>that noisy drive motor making noise on idle and draining laptop batterycds and dvds are annoying as fuck and i threw them out in 2005completely obsoleted by:nocd crack.iso.torrent200+G hard driveflash drives
>>107829961you know i have to wonder what does it actually cost to keep this running?, i feel this sort of thing could litterally just be kept up as a background process and forgotten about, costing microcock $2 per year, to serve the dozens of people that use it
>>107830742owning a stack of cds or dvds instead of pirating is like owning a bulky stack of plastic land waste while larping about "copyrights" for youtube goodboy points and whining that online activation servers dont work anymore

I have a budget of maximum 50.I have had sound magic before just earbuds were great but eventually the wire plastic wore away and one night they snapped.I just watch videos and listen to music on a very cheap smartphone.Would using usb c instead of the jack be a good idea?Also I'm probably gonna get the epz q1 pro from the op.
>$950 starting priceI don't feel so good Steambros...Valve messed up big time on this one.

>>107830261The gpus are ok but the cpus are kind of bad. not that intel is any better
>>107830261I liked them when they were the underdog but now that intel is going belly up they're going full retard on am5 pricing and it's kind of annoying. They also flat-out refuse to make any aggressive moves with nvidia for some reason, I'm inclined to believe that they have a gentlemen's agreement with them.

can anyone explain why amd 9070xtx is only a 5070 equivalent? Where is their 5090 equivalent.
>>107830499I think AMD decided to skip the high-end this generation and focus on the mid-range.
He's right, you know?
>>107829902>his nieceNo, not good enough. Do it right.@grok put him in a bikini
cartoons and robots are not people.if you cant understand that, you belong in a padded room.

>>107829876im sorry but im going to keep looking for pictures on twitter i know i knowi shouldnt
It's going to be buggy and slow isn't it
>>107819469Is this supposed to be a mid point between a smart phone and a dumb phone?I want a phone that is easy to use for text, email and messaging apps (i.e. full keyboard), can run Android auto when in the car, but sucks at media content. I'm sick of wasting so much time watching youtube shorts.
>>107826446It existed for a while, the market didn't care.
>>107830153okay. you don't need a full keyboard for any of this, and the rest is a (You) problem. buying expensive shitware to go and pretend like you're finally above your media addiction is pathetic, dude. give me the 5 hundred you'd otherwise waste on this money laundering scam or i'll kill you.
>>107830657Okay what's your cashapp?

What’s the proper way to measure your dict in bytes?When you size up a dict, do you care more about how wide it is (number of entries) or how deep it goes (what each one holds)?And when you need to unload the payload, do you dump it straight into a buffer, stream it somewhere else, or flush it to disk?
>>107827256thought we were having some sort of dict measuring contest here
Nigga stole that joke from 10yo StackOverflow post, btw.
>>107828593it's new to me

>>107824881If it's just for that you don't need a S10 Plus, an A model would suffice or something cheaper.

>>107827328This keyboard gets mentioned from time to time in /tpg/. Personally I want a 4" thick laptop with this as the base and the display and everything else in the lid with some bigdick hinges to support it all.
>>107827708I've been thinking about procuring a ThinkVision portable display to go with it. I just don't fully have a use-case for it. So I hold off. I prefer to save versus being overly consumerist. I don't know. I guess it's a right tech for the job approach.
>>107827328It's neat but>no numpad
>>107827945I cannot speak to that point. Although, my use of ten key on the shinobi is little. However, I would totally support Tex and procure any modular mechanical ten key unit, in the same ThinkPad style or aesthetic. I've seen a Targus and a Belkin stand-alone ten key, but it would have to match the shinobi. I might be a little consumerist if Tex released something like that.
Help would be appreciated>>107830566
If you want a tablet and also want to draw, should you get an iPad or a Samsung tablet?
>>107828973I have a tab s9 and while i would still choose it over the ipad (purely from a specs perspective), if you have unlimited budget an ipad pro is better. also ipados has way more and better drawing apps. android has krita at least so it has the most powerful of drawing apps, but the UI hasnt been optimised for android yet.

What is your favorite calculator?
>>107830650use case for use cases?
>>107830559yeah, but an fx991ms thread wouldn't be very exciting, would it?
>>107830668how is an android app in a calculator thread exciting?
>>107830654i agree. so there is no valid reason to own a TI calc.
>>107830708something useful in between all the ewaste adds some spice.
For the first time in a long time, learning/working is fun again.
>>107823943Gemini is the deal
>>107807740>that's right! you touched on a fundamental aspect of Xkek why it do that doe
>>107825892Words have meanings, retard
>>107829295Yes, and those meanings are more often than not, not static. They shift depending on culture, the context, how intelligent most people are, how wealthy most people are, etc. I'm calling you an autist because only an autistic retard (such as yourself) could ever view words so objectively and literally.
I get it to help me with stuff and to search for me quickly but sometimes it just makes things up. One time I was comparing graphics cards and it decided out of the blue that the Rx 9060 xt was a fictional card from a TV show so I couldn't buy it and would be better off getting an rtx 5060. Stuff like that really makes me take everything it says with a pinch of salt.
In 15 years the future will be us living in dense studio rooms constantly entertained by ai generated content in a headset that can fullfill your every wish. You can be cool kid in high school, a hero in a japanese anime isekai or a ww2 spy in nazi germany. If ur considering killing yourself wait at least a decade until virtual reality plus brain computer interfaces and generative AI converge into best thing humanity made. You will have heaven on earthmost of us are ugly loser incels who probably missed out on our youth. Never felt kiss of a girl or a friend that actually cares. But in a decade plus you can have friends who love you, girl who is infatuated and all ur desires granted.Im just crying realizing that heaven is only a decade away and anons don't understand this. Our god is AGI and he will create a virtual safe heaven better than any heaven human religion could think of. So plz until god descends onto this mortal realm to release us of our suffering endure it cause eternity of bliss awaits you
i bet they won't let you have a virtual hebe gf even though its legal irl in several european countries
Just another way to control the masses.
Always turn this shit off on a newly installed system. It's annoying.
>>107830406I probably should have worded that as "why does it need to allocate memory that is writable and readable". I'm not claiming to really understand any of this as I'm a nocoder retard. Is allocating memory that's readable & writable as bad as selinux claims?
>>107830457you need to ask selinux people for thatbut my personal guess is, if you have access to memory then your program can do its thing, because without memory programs can't do anything no? so that's why it's being limited
>>107830392execheap isn't about readable and writable memory, but about writable and executable memory. it should only be one of them. It opens up possibilities for (malicious) code injection. That's why the JIT is having trouble. It's generating code during runtime.
>>107830449>was discoered not long after it was deployed>quickly correctedThat kind of proves my point. There are millions of autistis out there in the world looking at the linux kernel and other OSS. If selinux actually had a backdoor like jia tan, i cant imagine that it would have remained hidden all of this time.
