Merry Christmas!!!!! Editionprevious >>107576926links >>106889031
The thought of having a job, living where you want and paying for your own living space (as in all 3 at once) is so alien to me it may as well be science fiction. And I say this as someone employed for ten years in a formal IT role.
i just had a job interview and i know a lot of stuff because im 10 years experienced but every question they ask is some edge case shit i haven't seen before and im bad at talking through figuring those things out so i failed and im dead and i can't so im still fucked basically

I have a E540 thinkpad, did i fuck up? guys
How good are the Intel Thinkpads for things like gaming, video editing, and playing with code? Biggest game I would play on it would be ZZZ.
>>107658129They're both trash so it doesn't matter.
>>107667111Have you already looked up the minimum requirements for your game and compared that to thinkpads that would fit your budget anon?
>>107668605Yeah, a 1660 Nvidia chip is what it says but the confusing thing is are the Intel xe graphics enough or rtx A300p-4000 would be better.
i'm not a physics expert but is the improvement in airflow noticeable when looking at the thermals? mine has vents on the bottom for the air intake i think
they're just for your cat to sleep under
>>107667910Depends how shit your laptop's design is.
>>107667910It's more for the ergonomics. You might have some benefits, but nothing that major to lose sleep about.
>>107667910A 100%. I built my own many moons ago and it knocked off like 60 degrees right away.
>>107667910My chinkpad has bottom intakes and throttles under high load all the time without a stand. TIM can't do shit if there is zero airflow.
>made full offline backups of all my video games and software>canceled Spotify and went back to downloading music>forgot I already have ~6000 songs that are completely unsorted, some have low bitrates, ripped from Youtube, downloaded from Kazaa, screen recorded, etc. and need to be renamed, metadata'd, and in some cases redownloaded in higher qualityFuck. How was your detransition back to the old ways?
>>107667400It is highly depending on your specific usecase and if you want to access said files from different devices in your household.If that's the case, a local server (NAS) is the way to go. If you are basically a single household and watch your stuff on a computer with no other devices, i would go for a huge external mechanical HDD.I got me a several of pic relatedYou can turn on and off every single HDD independently from the others and it's connected via USB (No RAID in this tower).It can hold up to 10 SATA HDD's.The buttons are on the front so it's comfy to reach also if you place the tower on your desk.Even if you have a several devices you watch your content on, you can usually also add a drive via USB to your router and set the routers firmware to use this USB drive as a NAS or even as an FTP/SFTP server for out and incoming connections.That's what i have done. I have a 2TB HDD in a USB docking station functioning as a NAS server for me and my wife and i have a several friends of mine i share TV-Series with that have an account and read rights in certain folders.I'm using a FritzBox router of the brand AVM. But i think other router brands support such functions as well.
>>107668128>>107668301
>>107668301>>107668312Yes, i see how you're doing it.Don't know the Strawberry player but looks nice.I'm sure you can add genre and year also to be shown in the player's metadata list, but you already have it in the album folders name as it seems.
>>107668390it is like this for any band, genre and artist if you pirate entire discographies, you just use directories, everything is 2 clicks away
>>107668410Folderstructure wise, i have it very similar. The only difference is that i have not only the albums but also compilations demos, singles in the same artist folder lumpsummed without having separate subfolders for albums, singles and such.Since i have the tags filled in, the player can sort them this way.
Was it the biggest mistake of nvidia?Nobody bought new cards for many years, and some still use it even now.
Zoom zoom broccoli heads are too young to know Nvidia's only real fuck up. After this, was the one and only time ATI/AMD had the marketshare over Nvidia because people were so fucked off about the FX series. The one time they slipped.
>>107667798Nobody remembers how big of a turd the GeforceFX was. Nvidia even clowned on themselves over it.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-BUvTomA7M
>>107668430I miss the old tech companies so much bros. Remember the days when Nvidia would hire out a stripper?
>>107668485and yes I will take my obligitory ban, just like eveytime I post it. Never forget.
>>107665606>5060 ti 16gbkind of, it overclocks&undervolts really well from what i have read, depending on the GDDR7 ram lotto anons are getting big gains on this gpu.

Thoughts on the elitebook?
I was the first person to ever call them "pajeetbook" and that's my biggest accomplishment in life
My works supplied laptop and it's a piece of poop. The only thing I dislike more is the works supplied iPhone which is also a load of shite.
>>107660876I'm tired of looking at 1366x768 TN panels boss
just boughted one. hope it turns out nice
>>107665689Pics or it didn't happen. I mean you having a wife.
Arch Linux decided to upgrade the default NVIDIA GPU driver to version 590. This change means that Arch Linux will no longer support NVIDIA GPUs from the Pascal generation and older—this means GeForce GTX 1000 GPUs and older.
>>107666214Arch Linux didn't do shit, retard. Nvidia dropped support for both the proprietary kernel module and GPUs that don't have GSP.
>>107667831Arch Linux decided to upgrade the default NVIDIA GPU driver to version 590.Cry about it faggot
>>107666271can you even do gens on windows? I imagine windows users would be fine with integrated, not like they need anything more.
>>107667850Yeah no shit they did, Arch Linux always upgrades to the latest nvidia driver as does every other distro that isn't garbage. The latest nvidia driver is bad enough, being stuck on an old driver is completely fucked.Nvidia cards from Pascal and older generations will be unusuable on Linux until nvk makes them usable, because the 585 driver is dogshit.As is the 590 driver, but that's beside the point. It's still a tiny bit less dogshit.
>>107667850Arch linux didn't do anything wrong. If they kept the older drivers as default, then retards like (You) would just bitch that they don't support the new GPUs instead. You can 't have two default drivers.The problem here is 100% on Nvidia and if you're using a older GPU you can still install the older drivers manually.
I may go away for a few months, but I always return home. There's simply nothing that comes even close to it.
>>107666683i never even bother going away. been with it for a decade now.
>>107667507>bspwm is better thoThere are days where I agree but I just like master/stack way too much nowadays and never managed to get a working method on bspwm.
>>107666683is there a reason i would want to use this over i3 though? i tweak and test a lot, and I don't want to compile that much
>>107666683hyprland is better, dissenting opinions are cope.
>>107668421>developed by the retard that thinks 150MB of RAM for a wallpaper is acceptable design

>>107667651Because you're dumb as a rock and don't understand how either works, so I don't know what to tell you, look up how actual mutex is implemented, and realize that before a syscall is even attempted, a plain atomic load is made in some fashion, potentially several dozen times, and that's the part you can customize to fit your misdesigned pile of crap, to for example, implement try_lock if whatever you're using doesn't already have such a trivial feature.
>>107667674im well aware of how try_lock actually works, and that is exactly why i said i wasnt happy with the options the off the shelf os sync primitives givesand while you are being very angry, which i dont understand why you are, i will complement you for finally discussing the topic instead of purely seething at a feature i like that you dont likei do wonder though, please explain why you hate it so much, it cant simply be because "loading things on the fly is bad" right?
>>107667735Because you have a misdesigned pile of crap but the world is wrong and not you.
