You're in a windows thread bud, we don't think like troonix cultists.

I just recently fresh installed W11 Pro and I would like to "downgrade" to W11 Home. Does anyone have any idea on how do I proceed to do that? I've already tried registry edit

>>107825920
why would you downgrade, you should even UPGRADE to enterprise

Honestly 13 inch is pretty for your eyes.

19-21 inch is good enough for a single person, 27-32 for 2-3 i guess

I say that while having both type, and i can guarantee you that watching a movie on a smaller screen that flicker will give you headache meanwhile you are pain/eye strain free on an OLED ...

>>107825939
CRT motion is dependent on the phosphor persistence TV
You can find consumer CRT TVs with 1ms persistence and also ones with 5ms persistence(roughly 200fps equivalent motion)

Most PC CRT monitors from late 90s were 1ms(to combat burnin)

Flicker was worse in lower refresh rates depending on how short the persistence was, so it was a trade-off between better motion and less flicker. But the public at large never was in the know about these things back then.

>>107826003
>and i can guarantee you that watching a movie on a smaller screen that flicker will give you headache
Nah, never was a problem
I watched movies on a 50hz PAL 20 inch CRT when I was a kid
When we used to see those blacks bars we used to say ''it's kino time''

Most people watched at a reasonable difference
But many TV sets had slower phosphors(for example many NTSC tvs had 4ms phosphor and PAL TVs had 5ms phosphor) so the flicker wasn't that bad on those

What I was getting at was there was a time when TV shows were filmed with standard 13-20 inch 4:3 CRTs in mind
That was a simple comfy experience which is now dead and unfortunately never coming back for those of us who have fond memories of those days

Those days were over when you could no longer read the text on Dead Rising on CRTs because they made the text too small

No but it is true that old games made use of the limitations to create effects that look cool on those screens but like like ass on LCD/OLED/etc or actually any high resolution CRT, e.g. Believable gradients via dithering, "alpha channel" via intermittent grid masking and many others.

>usecase
AMD X3D and standard iGPU (7700X for example) cant handle anything more than basic output for trouble shooting

Intel UHD 770 on 14th gen craps the bed on 4k videos

So you need a dedicated GPU if you just want to see 4k video or high fidelity 2k movies

There's tons of rumors that the prices are going to get crypto-hype levels of retarded plus a lot of people going 1000 series -> 3000 series -> 5000 series.
The amd cards are all like 100 bucks cheaper for the same or maarginally better raw computing power, but worse in every other regard, so people are still buying Nvidia unless they are broke.

unavailability rule?

>>107824286

that's mainly a data center/generative ai gpu, the same one that nvdia puts in gdx spark. that image seems to be from nvdia, so that last graph is probably a combination of all markets, whereas i'm, guessing the first one specifically refers to consumer grade hardware.

I bought a T14s off BestBuy and tried to reinstall windows and found out I need an AstraZeneca work email to access the computer and install windows as I cannot do a offline install.
Any solutions other than a refund or trying to get it unlisted with microsoft autopilot?

>>107825560
Get hired at AstraZeneca maybe.

>>107825173
if you care about these things, get a t14

>>107825712
probably will even though I wanted to go as small as possible

and if I drop the touch screen I am not if the intel or amd model would be better (i5-1145G7 vs AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U)

>>107826018
gen 4 or below: amd, at least that's what I heard
gen 5 or above could be different
I think the t14 is 3 cm wider than the x13, but it has a full-size keyboard, while the x13 has a smaller one. If you want to go small, why do you need an ethernet port anyway? at home/work you have a docking station and otherwise you can still use an adapter

Pulseaudio was better than using only ALSA. But ever since pipewire was released I don't see any reason to stick to pulseaudio, other than if you are using a 5 year old stable distro, without it in the repos.

Pipewire has it's own protocol, and supports both pulseaudio and jack sources. One feature I feature I can't live without is the way you can just connect audio inputs and outputs with programs like qjackctl.

Who cares about a fucking init system, like come on. I just use the easiest linux distro (Fedora) to watch anime, make stuff, do my job and run my gaymes inside a linux vm. I couldn't care less if Fedora used systemd, SysVinit, s6 etc.
>insert the erotic games 2ch post dot jpeg

>>107825214
i remember pulseaudio having issues. pipewire for me has had none.

also linux had issues liek fuckin crazy before systemd. anti systemd posters are the arch linux fatso meme. i dont want to spend tens of hours a week configuring my distro i just want the shit to work

neets don't like it when things actually work and don't need manual tinkering because now they're lost and don't know what to do

>>107817360
It works but it does too much. If systemd was just an init system + service manager, I'd probably use it. It's admittedly pretty good at that. But overall systemd is a big suite of software haphazardly thrown together in the same git repo for questionable reasons. Lots of components should really be totally separate programs and not tightly within the systemd monolith (inb4 someone says it has a gazillion binaries so of course it's modular).

You can be all cynical and bitter you want but no mutt I live in a country where our antitrust laws haven't yet been effictively erased by decades of anti-consumer lobbying, public outcry often results in tangible outcomes not just aggresive refusal from my government like in the US

I'd pay for a streaming service if it could bring me the same quality as what I'm torrenting, which is high bitrate high resolution shows. I don't particularly enjoy having to seed shit to inflate my ratio so I don't get kicked out of platform.

Back in 1994 I saw one of these sons of bitches in a national TV studio where I was doing an internship. It was a huge deal for me as this was in bumfuck Eastern Europe a little while after my country kicked out the commie retards. Everyone and everything was poor as fuck so seeing one of these made my eyes water and made me feel like we're all gonna make it. The experience was surreal. The IT guys let me see a couple of demos, seeing IRIX do its thing live was the experience that single-handedly absolutely cemented my life's trajectory in dealing with IT, programming, sysadmin stuff. Fuck I'm old. Fuck I miss IRIX. Too bad the only thing truly close to what IRIX was back then is MacOS.

>>107824686
what am I looking at here?

>>107824719
A Silicon Graphics Indigo. They were true beasts in their time. They ran IRIX which was a SysV UNIX variant. They specialised in graphics and pioneered many technologies like IRIS GL which later became OpenGL. They were immensely expensive, which is why the experience was so surreal to me.

>>107824686
>Too bad the only thing truly close to what IRIX was back then is MacOS.
Have you ever looked at Haiku? I've always thought it seemed quite similar. macOS doesn't really have much in common with IRIX aside from being a commercial Unix(-like).

>>107825731
I think they’re quite similar both functional, being proprietary Unix that is tightly coupled and suited for the hardware it runs in, but also philosophically with aesthetic coherence and the uses it’s made for. They’re both great at 3D art, scientific visualisation, development, media production etc. at least that’s my reasoning. That said irix was way more open and definitely assumed experienced admins instead of dumdum influencers and niggers which is why I think it’s a shame Mac is the only premium Unix available.

theres a distro you should try called LFN. its more along your experience and ability.

>>107825515
Honestly kubuntu and ubuntu are not bad.

Kubuntu has snaps but they arent installed by default in discover at least in the normal install of kubuntu and you can easily just use flathub with one click.

Dont know about xubuntu or the other flavors but even so the ubuntu app store on the official ubuntu flavor is not that bad. It loads quite quickly and the app store is fast compared to guhnome shit software store.

Snaps arent that bad firefox loads reasonably well on ubuntu 25.10 basically like a flatpak.

Worst distro is probably fedora or arch I dont even think they have an option for nvidia drivers and the codecs are hard to install and shouldnt even be a thing to begin with.

>>107821773
try turning off the compositor, deb+xfce is the best.
