what amp do i need to power these speakers so they will be loud. i am using a sony 200watt amp right now. it sends 100 watts to each tower speaker. and they still aren't loud enough. can someone link me to a more powerful amp for home ? i also tried a rockville 1000 watt amp and that didn't work. i feel like these speakers should be getting louder at lower volumes.

If this is RMS rating then you need an amp closer to 300w per channel. At least 250w.

How come C# isn't more popular when it's basically Java but better? Is it because people distrust a language maintained by Microsoft, or does the JVM have non-obvious but crucial advantages over the CLR?

I had the unfortunate experience of seriously giving the .NET 9 or whatever NativeAOT features a try like ~8 months ago and it was just genuinely unusable. Soooooo much does not yet work.
Graal, on the other hand, generally supports most use cases; even heavy reflection and stuff, you can just let it profil firt and do most of it for you and/or just pre-define some rules like you would if you were to use an obfuscator like Proguard, ZKM, etc.

>microsoft has been suddenly fighting against "illegal" activation methods
microsoft has been retiring many outdated components and one of those components was exploited by outdated offline activation method.
did microsoft retire it only because of activation exploit? nobody knows but most likely not.
>>
>>107850957
>send the ID of the computer plus its current installed edition to MS's activation servers and gets them to add the ID to the activation server no strings attached
Yeah but I'm talking about a fresh laptop here, no prior activations. So isn't it quite obvious that microsoft could just start blocking new registrations on their servers? Up until this point I've assumed they simply don't care and wouldn't want to cause angry hordes by blocking it.
>>
>>107850988
It doesn't matter if the laptop is fresh or not, it'll activate fine all the same.
>>
>>107851013
It won't if microsoft changes their servers and decides to block unauthorized hardware ID activations.

>>107851026
I mean if you could always just use the TSforge method instead if you wanted to.

Light themes are objectively superior to dark themes, why do so many people still choose dark?
106 replies and 19 images omitted. Click here to view.
>>
Didn't your mom tell you to not read in the dark? That's essentially what you are doing with dark theme. If you are going to unnaturally stare at screens from close distance, at least attempt to do it in an environment with natural level of lighting.

Some study found said that the lack of natural light exposure is one of the potential causes nearsightedness and eye diseases, could be related to the brightness (sun light is very bright), but also the lack of infrared frequencies in led lighting.

Likely the most optimal setup health-wise would be using a 65" tv at a distance, with light theme, in a well-lit room and add some infrared heat lamps to balance out the blue light.

Helix, but I am pretty sure any text editor with syntax highlighting is capable of a similar theme. But it has to be made custom for this approach. This is due to the typical light themes that have colored text adjusts the contrast of the colors for white. When highlighting the background you need to use very light colors to contrast well with black instead. I think It works exceptionally well for LaTeX since I just want to highlight the structure of the markup. Here is another similar theme that I use for Zig.
>>
>>107850223
There is nothing natural about the light from light themes.
It's way too blue and there absolutely bit enough orange and red for your eyes to bit strain unnecessarily.
If you use f.lux or similar and force it to night time constantly then it might be better than dark theme for your eyes.
>>
>>107837209
It's the opposite you tard, brown eyes are better at handling bright light than light eyes
>>
>>107850776
Well, I would argue it's slightly more natural compared to having your retinas lasered with the same blue light when they are adapted to a brightness level of a dark cave, which makes them operate on heightened sensitivity.

The people who get roped into it dont have crazy ideas involving racism or other wrongthink and the sycophancy makes them trust the chatbot more.
