Three 24" monitors or one huge monitor for programming?
I've been programming for over a decade, have used triple monitors in the past, and now I just use my 13" laptop monitorcopy paper and a pen is great for working out algorithms by hand when working through tougher problems

How do you stay motivated when you're trying to teach yourself something new? I'm envious of programmers but the fact trying to build my skills in the arena would involve taking myself to that with only myself and my own intellect to overcome the specific roadblocks I could encounter and that sort of thing feels unmotivating to me. You can go to a forum and ask a question, maybe, but people just flowing in and out and dropping an answer might not hit upon your issue or feel timely. I feel like I really need either someone to learn alongside with or someone actually willing to take the time to walk through what I'm fucking up on to feel like I can actually commit to personal growth.

>>107742464Well...TBQH you're not wrong. I find typing cathartic and wish I had more reasons to do it.That's why I have so many keyboards (and not just high-end mechanicals but literally any kind that I think might make for a fresh typing experience).

Do any of you use this? Is it usable in practice?
>>107742906>Is it worth separating everything intoyou're not required to seperate just because. you can very well use just 1 VM for everything if it's OK in your threat model.I think it's not inconvenience that makes QubesOS hard to use but resource overhead and no GPU acceleration except full passthrough
>>107738449>Are you capable of reading?>Are you capable of understanding and following simple instructions?>Are you capable of understanding that Qubes isn't a consoomer OS?If the answer to any of these questions is no then no it isn't usable for (You).
>>107742968>you're not required to seperate just because. you can very well use just 1 VM for everything if it's OK in your threat model.If that's the case, then you shouldn't use Qubes to begin with because it offers no extra value over Linux when it's used in such a way.
>>107743013except wrong. you still get the benefit of dom0 disaggregation and being able to clean wipe your workflow with a few simple clicks without total compromisation.not including App VMs' root being immutable as a benefit here, because despite that it making the process more convoluted, the malware persistence can happen through different ways (re-infection through an unpatched program). Still, it creates an extra step for an attacker and makes things harder / blocks some attempts.
>>107742007anon... when you run an AppVM, you are running QEMU/KVM on top of Xen. you can see it in the list of processes running in Xen.>You have to compromise XEN from dom0 (VERY UNLIKELY)why would you need to compromise the whole system? if you want to get user data, you can just compromise the AppVM where the target user's data is, or, in some cases, the template VMs.since there is communication between AppVMs and the main VM in dom0, you could also compromise that, maybe.and then there is the routed AppVM. get that and you could jump everywhere (assuming you have the correct exploits).ever heard of user-mode malware, like zeus? assuming you need to compromise everything to gain user data is retarded. it shows that you clearly have no idea about security, even if your argument is "technical".whonix is also an AppVM, btw.
Closed source software is not the same as patent protected software. Releasing a offline usable closed source binary under no license is so much more ethical then a proprietary (patent) license that threatens people with prison time and civil liability for sharing/modifying software or using it the wrong way. Also the addition of spyware sometimes and cloud tethering. Which I also oppose.But it seems TMK that Stallman may conflate offline usable closed source and patented software as if they are both as bad. but maybe some people know more about him then I do, Does he recognize the difference and what does /g/ think of the difference? I'm saying I strongly agree with Stallman big tech patent hoarding and patent trolling is harmful, and and I view the GPL3 like a voluntary contract programmers agree to participate in and hope to abolish all patents one day, but I'm not following his logic that seems to hint at closed source software being illegal as an ultimate goal. Patents should be illegal but not software with no public code.
Freedom.
>>107736639You are retarded and don't understand the point of software freedom
>>107741960>get the jab,goyim! and remember about your mask!>her body her choice! Now stay back so I can abort your children, goyim!>Pedophilia is good actually, me raping your kids won't hurt them, trust me, goyim!>Now repeat with me, I AM FREE!Right, goyim?
>>107737754my brain had a malfunction I conflated patented software and copyright software with heavy restrictions. I think all copyright should be replaced with non disclosure and public agreements. NDA for closed source among a team of developers. And the GPL3 and BSD reimagined as a public contract that activates whenever someone modifies GPL code.Honestly if it was just copyright laws preventing sharing of software I wouldn't care. What pisses me off is how ideas are protected by the state. In example Adobe held a 20 year patent on adjustment layers, or Namco patenting the loading screen mini games. Or how some licenses say you can't legally modify the software even in your home or only they can fix the hardware. Similar to right to repair laws. That is what I am against.It just seems that Stallman views it as a human right to modify other people's software, that is where I disagree. Its a voluntary agreement of people participating in GPL3 software.>>107737922 Fact check them. Grok and DeepSeek do not understand but they do have very good fact checking abilities.https://www.reddit.com/r/GROKvsMAGA/The most likely hallucinations are when Grok gives something that sounds like an answer but is a complete fabrication. DeepSeek doesn't do that much at all but Grok does from time to time. Other then source checking the best thing to do is have the same conversation with different AIs several times and look for consistency and tell them to cite the sources.
>>107742247Just like people on Mastodon fall short of understanding freedom. The concept of positive vs negative liberty.Dude on Mastodon rails against software patents, big tech cloud tethering everyone's software, and supports local offline software use. I strongly agree with him there. Then I read more of his post and he goes on about how much he loves the EU and thinks that Government should pay all FOSS devs and how a massive welfare state is salvation. That's the point I diverge on. Its positive vs negative liberty and I have taken negative liberty to its logical conclusions. Where as the people on Mastodon and Stallman are mixing both in inconsistent ways. Stallman wants total digital sovereignty as do Ibut he also wants to keep the strong centralized government to provide welfare state creature comforts.I don't think you can have a Government that represents the people and as I cited in a previous post the EU is violating civil liberties while leftist on Mastodon celebrate them . Stallman expects both total privacy where Government doesn't know who you are and a massive welfare state to care for people. That is a huge logical contradiction he has. You can't have both and you must pick one, freedom or dependency! https://desuarchive.org/g/thread/107698501/#107700202https://desuarchive.org/g/thread/107561690/#107564545>>107737922When taking negative liberty to its extreme conclusion it would be better to live in a world without GPL3 licensing if it meant that most copyright and all patents were abolished since the early 90s onward. But we'd have to do that from the start, as like I said patents already gave capitalist pigs a huge advantage that can't be undone. The timeline we're in is fucked
What is Steam's secret? Why is Steam so succesfull?
>>107741631>you're too old to have heard of the thing i'm claiming to have been around longer than the thing you've heard of!wut
>>107742127You don’t have evidence either other than “trust Valve bro” which we seen was a very bad thing.
>>107742919NTA, but the evidence is in the fact that the EU hasn't fined Valve yet for review manipulation.The EU has strict legal requirements to publishing consumer reviews of products, which require the platform not manipulate the representation of said reviews in any way, such as using a cut-off point that purposely omits poor ratings.Steam is a known entity to the EU, and has been fined before for other breaches of EU legislation.Yet not for this.
>>107731752steam was already established before consoles killed themselves off, the other publishers tried to compete but steam already had a majority of IP's willing to participate, so they won by default >>107731806hasnt stopped them from being incredibly stupid, like betting the company on a lawsuit for the rights to the half life name, the decade plus of incompetent managing strategy from 2007+, the flop of hla, complete abandonment of artifact.

Wayland sisters, I don't feel so good...

>>107741996The "you can't criticize Wayland because it's a protocol" cope is getting old. If there isn't a protocol supported by a strong majority of compositors that provides a given feature, the feature should be considered unsupported. If X11 had theoretical provisions for some feature in the protocol, but that feature wasn't actually available in X.org, we'd consider it unsupported too. Anything else would be dishonest.>>107742077It's pure security theater, you're not meaningfully more protected. There's a ton of ways to exfiltrate data, like reading your home directory or using LD_PRELOAD tricks. Wayland's "security" is simultaneously too lax and too strict. Too lax because it doesn't provide meaningful protection; too strict because security is merely an excuse for designing things that Wayland devs don't like out of the protocol. Configurable access control is a thing that exists, so there's no need to have a gimped protocol to achieve security.
>>107742943>The "you can't criticize Wayland because it's a protocol" cope is getting old.

Anything else would be dishonest.But the majority of the things labelled "Not Supported" here actually are supported in the majority of compositors, it's not theoretical. There's no loss of functionality in any real implementation, but because it's not required as part of the protocol they're claiming it's unsupported. It's very dishonest.

you already know that for years now, big tech has been paying shills to shit-talk Linux and other FOSS projectsand with all the AI progress, most of the shilling is not done manually any more, it is mostly automated botsso why not fight fire with fire?why don't we set up something that scans internet for relevant discussions and automatically makes posts that promote Linux and digital freedom?
