>fixes your distrohopping permanently>easy and dead simple installer that just werks can even choose minimal install with no bloat if you want a clean KDE desktop>gives you a PC that just werks and plays gaymes>is better than windows 11Why aren't you using it.No need for that meme shit like arch or some other meme distro.
>>107839743>kde needs more then 16 gigs to run properlylamo
LTS is stuck on 5.27. And NO, I will not be beta testing for Canonical.
>>107839758It doesn't, but you need working RAM in a working computer. Which you don't have. The computer is too old and poorly configured. If it wasn't a broken computer, you wouldn't crash all the time.
>>107838310I like Arch though
>>107839701There's at least 16 open crashing bugs in Nautilus alone in the Gnome bug reporter.
>if you uninstall notepad on windows you cant reinstall it without the microslop (((store)))
>>107833011Most zoomers can't do beyond getting spoonfed an exe and double click on it
>>107834640no bro, you dont need to use the microsoft UWP settings app just use microsoft store!!!
>>107832064>Windows apps come form the Microsoft store.>come formWhat does come form mean? Is that an app?
>>107833375how is to doing that
>>107832064You can thoughbeit. This is why I'm certain that 99% of criticism of Windows here is bullshit, none of you even use Windows. You can install old notepad at any point easily through Settings -> System -> Optional features -> Add a feature -> "Notepad"or install the new notepad through various methods>Microsoft Store>winget in Terminal/PowerShell>Appx from rg adguard storeYou have options, unlike loonix, windows values user freedom.
people are starting to forget that Windows actually was good a long time ago, it has been 13 long years
>>107820326>Windows actually is good
>>107820326
>>107839542>you are new to operating systems?*are you* new to the English language?>so name what's wrong thenUI in literally every area of the system is worse - start menu/screen, explorer, settings, all applications bundled with windows that they updated - both how they look & feel (godawful spacing and layouts, also fuck rounded corners and circles for things in grids), as well as how they're implemented: Paint goes from needing 7MB of RAM on Win10 to 270MB on Win11; Notepad goes from 1MB to 112MB - and they shove Copilot and being logged in into everything, even fucking Notepad and Paintthen you get news of all the broken system updates that were written by AI, because there are no actual system engineers at MS anymore, just hordes of pajeetsnormally i defend windows from usual hate but holy shit is this an all-round downgrade from previous systems
Why aren't chuds making their own distros instead of clinging to the past?Isn't this what they're accusing conservatives of doing? Doing nothing as the world passes them by instead of fighting?Windows was objectively a shit concept even when it was still good
>>107820326Windows is still good if you're on the correct branch. Objectively a clean install of W10/11 IoT Enterprise LTSC just dwarfs anything linux has to offer. Piss easy offline local instalation that's done in like 4-5 simple steps, practically zero chance of hardware and software incompatibility, and very lightweight, bloatfree, and allows absolute control over the computer. Wanna block defender in gpedit? Sure. Wanna block updates in gpedit? Sure. Even allows removing packages that aren't removable in the non-IoT branch of LTSC. It's pure perfection. Home.
Why can't you find any good MP3 players today? I hate having to use my phone (which doesn't even have an audio jack) to listen to music.
I tried using my phone but within a few weeks the headphone jack was broken. Phones are too big as audio players, which you typically put into a pocket that barely fits it, putting way too much mechanical stress on the plug and jack. And screw bluetooth IEMs, not gonna put a chink shit lithium bomb in my ears and I don't want to have to charge them in the first place.Meanwhile I've been using my small and light sansa clip+ for over a decade without issues (except the volume up button being broken, but I can set the volume via settings so no big deal)
>>107840203Cool. Thanks.
Waiting for more news about this beast
>>107840637but does it sound noticeably better than a smartphone and does it have significantly more battery life than a modern smartphone ?
>>107840696dedicated single Cirrus Logic CS43131 DAC so probably sounds better than any smartphone on the market.Given it's size I'd expect it'll probably have at least 10 hours of battery life (echo mini is 15 hours). although similar sized Sony players with similar display tech from nearly 20 years ago could last up to 40.
if AI companies buying a lot of future RAM caused the prices to spike, why wont the fabs just announce that they will also increase their capacity in the future?this should cancel each other out and lower the cost of RAM right now.
>>107840435Wrong, they are a monopoly and are therefore risk averse to the point where they refuse to take the risk to increase the scale of production. Monopolies in the market make a risk averse, stagnant market and that is what we're beginning to see with semi-conductor producers. Learn to economics.
>>107840152I have an idea.We lie out of our asses, make convincing enough papers and powerpoints for investors to get them to invest in "downlaodable RAM". We sell it as the next big thing, and if we get enough money being thrown our way the price of RAM will eventually go down from people thinking you can just download it.It's fool proof! Or at least it counts on people being fools to work!
>>107840152>why wont the fabs just announce that they will also increase their capacity in the future?Because they won'tFabs know that the AI memory boom is a short term thing and won't risk overcommitting resources on itThey'll keep producing the same amount of RAM, and don't really care if it goes to consumers or datacenters
>>107840402Why would the amount of manufacturers change that?If I had a company like that, i wouldn't. If most of the people I know had one, they wouldn't either. It is just logic, not lack of diversity.Of course at some point you might have a retard doing exactly that, so I guess you are right to a degree, but I don't think that argument makes sense. It is not the problem here.

Are LLMs demonic technology or are its users too dumb & gullible to become psychotic due to them?
>>107840586i do the same maladaptive daydreaming but for me its a loving caring gf
We just gotta be more willing to show our love for the people around us.
>>107840586it's technically bothit's a technology that's too useful at making people's lives miserable and its users are too dumb & gullible and become psychotic due to listening to machines made to make people's lives miserable.only your local LLM model is trustworthy and even that is going to hallucinate you into having a tulpa if you start to believe it's real .
>>107840586Damn if I was her dad I would be extremely distant and not invest in her at all either, why waste your energy on an obvious genetic failure?
>>107840586LLMs are demon tech. Using it as a replacement for social connection is about as bad as getting addicted to hard drugs.Although the bigger negative affect is the widespread usage of AI to obscure the truth and bombard people with mind-rotting garbage.And the systematic copyright infringement by multi-billion giga-corpos.That said, they can do some menial tasks for you and the only downside from that is the risk of your skills (and general intelligence) atrophying.I sometimes use LLMs to save me 5 minutes of writing a script.>>107840606there's been multiple cases of healthy people with a strong social life, with no prior history of mental health issue, going psychotic after using AI too much.It's not just the already insane who then happen to use AI to live out their insanity.

>>107835654nta and I hate the permanegative culture on this site but damn man you need a reality check in the worst way>Original ideas often fail...Right, so you admit that you didn't even need a great or imaginative idea, but you still want to outsource it? Why even post the question just ask Grok>you could have said that from the startIf you didn't even know that, how can you possibly expect to get anywhere? You have ZERO business sense>if you don't want to spoonfeed...So now you admit you want to be spoonfed, and here's the grand irony anon - you then say that anon is like a child. SPOONFEEDING IS LITERALLY FOR CHILDREN. Then you decide to continue insulting the only anon trying to help.Time for the reality check anon - there are 100 million jeets right now asking AI questions like yours, getting project ideas, and vibe-coding them all into existence. They will work harder than you, longer than you, and most probably understand the tech sector better than you (given you seem to understand almost nothing).So do yourself a favour - admit to yourself you're only pursuing this path because you're too lazy to seek out work that means leaving the comfort of your chair, lack the charisma for grifting and lack the imagination to think of anything else. Embrace that truth and take decisive action - either commit to being a better worker and get out of your comfort zone into the real world (maybe trades) OR accept your worthlessness and settle for a life of unfulfilling mediocrity as a permaNEET.but either way get the hell off this board, you don't belong here.

Why has no big brand succeeded in the e-ink tablet space?Huawei and Lenovo tried and abandoned their productsAmazon has the Kindle Scribe series but it's AmazonBoox has nice hardware and features but typical Chinese brand software longevitySuprenote is mehRemarkable is trying to be Apple too hard
>>107830644>Surely a reflective LCD still needs a constant supply of power supplied to it?They do, but power usage has never been the main selling point of e-ink devices, it's always been the paper like qualities. And RLCD displays are not going to be using as much power on backlighting/frontlighting as the typical backlit LCD's are.>>107831648>Why do RLCD have such low resolutions compared to coventional backlit LCD?Unless there is a technical detail causing this that I'm not aware of, this is merely about RLCD being a niche product.>What remains to be seen is how much color-particle based e-ink can be improved.I don't have much hope regarding color e-ink, to be honest. There is no indication that e-ink will ever be capable of magazine level color reproduction.
>>107838357Look at Spectra 6.Maybe it's not magazine level but it's a whole lot different from Kaleido.
>>107826750I just want cheap 7" e-ink reader.Not +$100 dollaer recycled e-waste.My backlog of novels and books is keep getting bigger.
>>107831847I thought this too when i saw the date on my ereader. Its change log is vague, only thing it says is "security and stability" or something to that effect. Features that were in beta 10 years ago are still in the beta tab, there are no perceivable changes. In fact, the only thing that has changed is that i can no longer access the sync feature or the kobo book store from the reader. Just fails it every time. So yeah, surprising to see it was updated as recently as a few months ago only to have nothing different and less features working on it. Doesn't really mean much does it? Again, my original point was that i think it's actually crazy that this ancient device is barely any worse than something i just purchased in Amazon that released this last year. Its hard to believe so little has changed performance wise.
>>107840463I don't know the exact device you purchased but for I don't think that there have been no improvements.For reflowable ebooks a decade old device is good enough and there hasn't been much need to update but for pdf and the like those small devices with limited CPU and RAM were barely usable.

what the fuck happened to youtube ads? While scrolling youtube shorts I just got an ad with an AI voice talking about a "finger massaging machine" while showing a minute of uninterrupted footage of someone fucking some kind of motorized fleshlight with various dildos
I haven't seen an ad since 2018
>AdsI forget those exist. Every time I got my parents and they're watching TV I'm horrified by how long the ad breaks are.
>adsThis sounds like a personal problem, possibly even a case of brain damage.
>>107840304I tried watching YouTube on a device I hadn't setup Ad blocker on yet and it was legitimately an unusable experience for me. I didn't know how bad it had gotten. I can't believe normies put up with that.
>>107840265>>107840304>>107840455>>107840462I generally use newpipe but sometimes I crave the unfiltered algorythmic brainrot and want to scroll youtube shorts and I don't have premium so I get ads every now and then.But yeah like I said most of the ads are unhinged. alot of AI generated stuff, and also alot of ads for AI chatbots

They can just do things on your computer.
>>107840394Honestly, I'm not suited to write code without an AI (I tried before AI was a thing). It involves some sort of bird view I can't really replicate to design something. So you already need to know where you're going before coding, then find the appropriate way of doing that among many ways and the gritty stuff like the syntax and all. It's like drawing instead of generating art. Sure it's better to do it by hand, but I can't invest years of free time to get at a level where I can do it without an AI. I better try to improve the process as much as I can with these flawed tools and see some good enough results.
>>107840482You can not substantially improve from where you are now without at least learning the basics. This is not a tool issue this is a you problem.
>>107806638It's called "efficiency", anon, ever heard of it? Hashing passwords is incredibly slow
>>107840491You got a point, I'll spare some time for the basics then. Hopefully it won't take too long to see the difference
>>107839060What is "High?" codex only lets me pick 5.2 and 5.2-codex.
talking about this guy not pic related but still relevant: https://www.youtube.com/@tokyospliffWhy are redditors so entranced by people like this? >Dude! he's disheveled because he is so friggin' CRACKED at coding broooooooo! Monk energy broski! >brooooo look at this shitty game he made! It's akshully super impressive because uhhhh...he's like Terry Davis or something! Shut the fuck up nigga. Redditors are some of the most surface level shit-eaters in existence. They see some slimy, whole-chungus programmer and think he's some kind of mystic because hollywood capeshit told them people like that are the REAL GENIUSES broooooo! If you think someone like this guy or Luke Smith is even an inkling above average intelligence you are 100% a reddit shit eaterTechnology becomes so incredibly cringe when it's use is self-fellating nonsense and show-pony trinkets to show what a special little boy you are. It's called software ENGINEERING not trinket tinkering or show and tell. No one cares about your chopped ps2 looking ahh uncslop
if someone calls programming "coding" you can just ignore their opinion
>>107839647i mean he just works on his renderer on stream no reason to call him out or bitch about it, much less artificially concern yourself with what reddit thinks about him. you use reddit? have you ever used graphics apis? pygame doesn't count. if you can show me your ogl/vulkan renderer i'll gladly accept your opinion as valid. here's mine https://github.com/changelight/oceanlight/tree/development
