Had Logitech G305 - developed doubleclicking in a year
Switched to CoolerMaster MM712 - scroll wheel started scrolling in random directions in a year, on top of shitty wireless connectivity.
And the funniest thing is that I used $5 store brand mice before and all of them lasted me much longer than that without issues.
Is there a single reliable brand of wireless mice that work and I won't have to pay through the roof to get?

I am regularly amazed that we pretend folders are the right way to organise files. They’re entirely arbitrary. Every competent file system ignores them to its best ability. Why can’t I have a file in two folders? Why does one have to be a “reference”? Why can’t I filter for files that exist in 3 folders with X extension?

We’ve been played for absolute fools.

all “search” algos are on a variation of a b-tree index, so hierarchical filesystems were a way to make it simpler when you had limited compute

main issue is that if you wanna move away from it you need to start filling indexes with other shit to allow people to quick search for files, and that goes against the unix philosophy and its pretty much bloatware

Export the ReadEra Backup. Open with a computer, extract with Winrar or something. There is a JSON document, library.json. If you have the same collection on your computer and you organize the latter, you can write some scripts to make the same changes to library.json and import it back to ReadEra

How do people become seriously good with tech? Did they get exposure from a young age? Mentorship from someone who actually wanted to teach them?
Like the people that figure out how to decompile games or repack old games for new operating systems. People who build software/hardware that can interface with old consoles, shit like that?

I've always loved games and computers but I grew up in a religious, anti science household. I finished community college pre-stem courses and I code in C++, but I can't help feel like a retard compared to real technical knowledge

Why aren't you downloading all the software/tools for anything you could ever want to do offline on your OS since 2010?

Download sites for obscure tools and utilities go down every year, accelerated since the last 5. Software support cycles are the fire in which we burn.

It's a good idea to use a VPN.

OVH has unlimited bandwidth VPS, you can set it up with wireguard on it. That will allow for port forwarding.

At the very least you should require encryption in the qbit client. But if you communicate with UDP trackers, that's unencrypted as far as I know.

You have 0 (ZERO) seconds to explain why you use Windows.
There is literally no excuse
>b-b-but muh games
GNU/Linux has a great selection of games, if you spend the majority of your time gaming, you are a child.
>b-b-but muh video/photo editing
There are excellent FOSS alternatives available. I know you're going to defend your proprietary garbage like goyshop because it has a few extra features, maybe if you cared enough you'd implement those features into the FOSS alternatives instead of giving up your freedom for the sake of convenience.
>b-b-b-but MUH JOB
If your job forces you to use software that doesn't respect your freedom, start looking for a different job.
