Nothing I quite liked mine. Still use it as a tv/plex computer. Used it about 4 years as my main device. Going on 9 years now. Used it for notes as well. But the price/performance might not be great and the keyboard is meh and flimsy. Might get it again after my M1 mac dies.

I use QubesOS with detached boot partition on 2 duplicated USB drives with any data that rests on the SSD/HDDs being encrypted with LUKS2. Whonix gateway is proxied through a VPN qube to hide Tor IPs (can't hide communication patterns) without bridges since bridge IPs can be farmed. Sometimes Tor through I2P outproxy or vice-versa or with different anonymizing network overlays. Clients used for browsing are only opened in on-RAM ephemeral qubes with no access to permanent storage. Attack surface is quite minimum since no extra things added like USB mouse and no PV qubes (aside from sys-usb and sys-net) are used for launching HVM qubes with qemu stub domains unless very necessary and every other qube on the system gets shut down first to keep information leakage minimum. A veracrypt volume with hidden storage on a permanent qube for data storage and plausible deniability.

what's your setup like?

On the topic of privacy. What browser should I use?
I've noticed that the content of random pages, even 4chan pages, and the things I type anywhere in the web browser are being tracked. Youtube shows me recommendation based on that. It's disturbing and it wasn't like that before.
I'm using Firefox right now with strict protection and ublock. Should I switch to librewolf? I don't understand why doesn't arch have it in the default repositories.

We have 5 devs in my team including me, and I'm thinking if the codebase was better and we had a local AI trained on it, a single dev could handle everything that we do now. But if that happens won't it be better to have 5 devs doing it with even more increase in productivity? I guess there's diminishing returns at some number of devs but won't that mostly apply to large teams?

also you need to be a little smart about it and change details slightly for each account.
best bet is to save the bother and wait for a good spend and save promotion where you can stack a few and get a decent discount.

Now that the dust has settled, was RTFM (Reading the Effing Manual) a good thing? Did it ever help you out? LLMs have rendered RTFM moot and there's a new generation of "programmers" who won't RTFM, ever. Do you think they'll be worse programmers?
1 reply omitted. Click here to view.
>>
>>107684288
Reading the manual is still required if you want to understand the code your LLM generated.
>>
>>107684288
You still have to read the fucking manual if you want to properly understand something, assuming the fucking manual is good instead of being just code in English like the python docs or cpp reference.
For example the .NET docs will beat an LLM at explaining .NET concepts but I wouldn’t even think about reading the python docs, just ask Claude.

RTFM came from a time where software was generally quite well documented anyway. It stopped being relevant about a decade ago when code became features first docs optional.

>>107682024
Might as well just get a dock for the usb-c port, since that's the actual solution to the problem that framework is pretending to solve.

Any version of Windows since 1995 has been more polished, production-ready and user-friendly than any Linux distro ever made. That's obvious to anybody who has installed both of them on the same machine.

Are Linux users just lying about their distros being a better experience than a Windows installation?
