I feel like this one is clearly a scam meant to capitalize on the Clicks Communicator hype. This product does not actually exist and never will.

I use this brand! I am on their Jelly Star. Outdated android version (13) but I'm always behind because I don't live on my fucking phone. Well worth the $200 I spent on this pebble of a phone. I might check out this titan 2 just for a termux device

>>107848202
Dumbass, its pretty obvious when people are wearing earbuds and are on the phone. Especially if the buds are white and ESPECIALLY if you have bone conduction earbuds that wrap around your head

Ahh yes. Natures way of identifying the douche bag. Mother Earth based like that.

>you've never used any, why are you talking about them?
I literally went to school and got a degree about this very subject lmao

this does not work.
>>107849040
I'm not that anon but he's asking what the point of using bone conduction headphones is if you're just gonna plug stuff into your ears anyway, which is a rather valid question. even if the 'plug your ears' method did work (it doesn't), why not just use traditional iems at that point?

should I:
>get an mSATA drive but it would probably be some weird chinese brand like Fanxiang because nobody else makes them anymore
>get a new SSD and install it next to the old one using an ultrabay adapter
>get a new SSD and just swap it in and try to clone everything over and then extend partitions

if we were actively working towards the singularity then i’d have no qualms with these nuclear-level hardware prices but the tech’s still comparatively raw yet still shoved into damn near anything that could hold a charge. having said that i’ve been using chatgpt rather frequently since last year and its ability to automate and summarize a shit ton of data is not to be underestimated, i feel. let’s see how far it can go by 2030

>I've yet to encrypt it
I think it would be pretty cool if you could manually transfer keys via serial connection
Does it just send messages in unencrypted plain text atm? What structure are the packets, like would a receiver be able to tell the difference between two different transmitters? Could it even pick up two at once? Do you set a specific band? What about frequency hopping?

Let me guess it's just Linux with some tweaks

I installed Windows 10 IoT LTSC on a laptop that previously had Linux Mint (because I installed Mint on a new laptop) and it feels like such a downgrade. Might bite the bullet and install Windows 11, did they really patch the method of signing in with a local account by evoking command prompt?

KDE plasma looked familiar enough to me as a former windows user to be able to quickly find my way around. The switch wasn't painful at all. In fact the UI is vastly more comfortable to use than the constantly crashing slow ad riddled AI slop garbage that is the modern windows UI. Even despite the occasional krash.

Normalfags don't want to or know how to rice their krash machine to look like that.
Also normalfags don't even know that's a possibility, they think linux is just a terminal screen and are scared of white letters of a black background. You can't convince them otherwise.

Office software is the bottleneck.
You're gonna need word and excel for most anything you work with and everyone uses MS word. MS is actively going out of their way to break compatibility as much as they can, sure most any fork of OpenOffice can open their files but it will break formatting, fonts, images, formulas... Anything MS can make break.
So even if you're interested in fully switching, you're still fucked because normalfags have sold their soul to the MS jeet and will happily use their 365 copilot app till the heat death of the universe. Ask me how I know.
>>107848987
You can still get around it but now they'll break updates for you. Which may or may not be an added benefit.

GEG if you only knew how bad it is
At work I was literally put on duty of going through every optiplex and setting up windows for typical joe office worker. Due to security, local account was insisted on.
90% of time was wasted on trying to trick OOB to fuck off with the cmd tricks. We didn't have ms-cxh:localonly at the time (either was not there or just uknown,I don't remember) so had to use the older command that is now removed from latest releases. I did try to bypass OOTB with the sysprep mode and registry tricks, but then seemingly this would prevent some software from being updated (keep in mind, for both techniques I had my internet cable pulled)
Due to the boomers that ran the place, I was not allowed to use MS server WDS or anything like that, in fact they expected me to not even use scripts caues muh viruses and muh warranty, though scripts were allowed after I showed them to the higherup (he admitted he didnt understand it anyways)
After I was at least able to get in local account, I had to run a debloat script and set up a bunch of stuff like pcname, update, etc
I got through 70 units in 4 days, 8h a day, about 4 stations at the time, largely wasted on waiting for OS to debloat itself. Last time the higherups that did this apparently didn't use scripts, and therefore it would take them 2 weeks+ of manual work.
Keep in mind that I am an autist who is willing to read into random user guides on how to foce windows to do what I want. If not people who maintain altas, id not know about a decent amount of best practices. Everything is obtuse and shittly documented
The sysprep mode would allow me to cut down on time by solid 5 min per machie, but because of it refusing to install some things like the default suite of modern apps, I could not use it. I bet its possible, but do you think I got the time to research why and how this happens? LMAO

You'd have to disassemble it in order to clean.

New Year has arrived and wordclouds appeared all over the site. What are they using to extract post text content from threads? Does each wordcloud poster have their own bash script with elaborate sed commands to do this?

you could probably get by if you made a guide for adding a custom logo rather than advertising it as removing the flag

Probably not because the build process is literally like 100 different steps.

So I ordered a 4K monitor a month ago. It finally showed up in my country last week, but has since not had any updates. AliExpress allowed me to request a refund and the seller did not respond so they just gave me my money back. I have a feeling the monitor will show up eventually, so I will get a free 4K monitor.

the average person isnt very good at distinguishing small differences in taste
if you have trials like this, with normal average people that arent supertasters, the only discernible difference would be sweetness
this is the only reason why pepsi tastes "different" from coca cola

Quite a large number of top scholars & engineers have ALREADY fled the West to escape all the kike (((machinations))) here. Expect that flow to increase once "western companies [] go out of business" as you put it.
