I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!

Longtime obsidian user that actually uses it for serious notetaking every single day, and actually has to refer to those notes and access them efficiently so I am not just a 'productivity larper' like most people. Yes the graph view is a mega gimmick, hyperlinking notes is kind of useful.

I've done a lot of engagement with the science of learning especially through people like Justin Skycak, so that's what I base my note-taking system on. It's heavily inspired by the concept of 'incremental reading/writing' championed by remnote.

I only use three plugins, excalidraw for writing graphs for math classes and the daily notes/calender plugins so that everyday I can just click to the empty daily note template. and the anki plugin.

Everything I write gets a 'quality/urgency' property so it can be triaged later. It doesn't reach the higher levels of quality unless I convert all the information inside into anki notes. The only way that things stay in your mind is through active recall, so the only thing that matters is digesting information into an active recall system.

Somethings you learn are naturally subject to active recall, if you program everyday your mind will naturally be forced to recall the concepts and techniques you previously learned. Everything I write down is forced into anki so I will be forced to remember it for the rest of my life. Making knowledge into anki notes is the only thing that matters at all.

We don't know how much of that money was for R&D and how much to actually manufacture the hardware. Meta built a ton of bullshit software like the metaverse and sponsored the development of vr games.

>have you seen any quest usb wifi dongles? (I assume the steam adapter works for quest headsets)
The Quest doesn't have a dongle. The Steam Frame one will use 6GHz only to communicate with the built in dedicated 6GHz radio in the Frame for the PC connection, the regular wifi connection ill use 2.4Ghz and 5GHz on the Frame. The Quest can't do this and only uses one wifi band for everything. The dongle will only work for the Frame. The windows drivers were already leaked accidentally some time ago and back then they were writing a custom driver for the Realtek rtl8814b usb wifi adapter.

The real win for VR(in it's current form) is in simulation and remote control not traditional vidya or shitty social media.
Zuck and co completley missed because of two reasons, they're chasing retail consumer tech which it doesn't fit with AND coming at it from the wrong direction, it's not about people moving more into immersive digital worlds it's about tech moving more into the real world that actualy solves a problem.
VR will always be a niche non-normie tech until robots become more integrated into society then they'll be using it mostly for work not leisure.

um yeah I think its safe to assume the more advanced VR headset that runs your games locally is gonna cost atleast AS MUCH as version 1

The index had lots of custom hardware like the base stations and had good build quality
The Frame is much more cost optimized, the displays and lenses cost less to make then back then, the controllers are simpler. The additional cost comes from the CPU, RAM and UFS chip which wouldn't cost a lot if there was no bullshit market manipulation by openai

De-botnet your life. Learn something new. Serving applications to yourself, your family, and your frens feels good. Put your tech skills to good use for yourself and those close to you.

Kind of a noob here. Is Authentik a good security solution for when I want to expose a service to the internet without using VPNs or zero trust? How noob friendly is it? I checked their documentation and a lot of the terms they use to describe it doesn't make sense to me

>>107707418
Kanidm is likely a better fit if you want to delegate authentication to another service (with single sign-on as an added bonus). Piss easy to set up; single binary with no external service dependencies, can be deployed in a container also. Easiest solution of all is still just tailscale with headscale though, but if you really wanna avoid VPNs, OpenID Connect with kanidm is probably the simplest you'll get. Really recommend reading their documentation about what they do and can do for you.

Windows' file system is bad at handling lots of tiny files, which emacs relies upon heavily.

spacemacs
- slow
- uses many obsolete packages

+ documentation all in one place
+ very nice setup for clojure and lisp
+ more complete keybinding setup
+ has emulation modes in other editors like vscode

doom
- documentation very fragmented and full of annoying stubs
- custom.el doesn't work right

Ah, no it doesn't, because they weren't able to implement it in their React bullshit and nobody had the knowledge how it would work. Same goes for task bar anywhere else but at the bottom.
Also in Win10 the Task Manager didn't crash when you tried to close it, nor did it turn itself into a fork bomb.
Furthermore, in Win10 you didn't have to open the actual useful right click menu by opening a right click menu inside the right click menu.

hey /g/, friend offered to sell me her laptop, here are the specs

i7
nvidia geforce gt 630M
8 gigs of ram 2.20 ghz
1tb
windows 8

Would be used for extremely light gaming, mostly older rpgs i just want a fast functioning laptop.

its a Dell 17R-5720. Shes offering it between 100-200, is it worth buying a used laptop if i dont necessarily care about gaming too much?
