Are you ready to embrace Resolute Racoon? Release set for April 23, Beta out now.

>7.0 kernel
>GNOME 50
>New document reader, Evince replaced by Papers (built in Rust)
>New image viewer, Eye of GNOME replaced by Loupe (built in Rust)

I know at least one of you will make a certain post, and I'm betting with myself how many replies it'll take before it arrives.

In this case rust-coreutils is largely faster and smaller than GNU, and sudo-rs is much smaller from axing lots of legacy options. Sudo-rs also has **** visual feedback by default, which is surprisingly nice

The future worth building is a peer-to-peer mesh. A global interconnected network of peers who share the same space. Your house should be able to speak to the house next door without accessing another man's data center. Renting passage from a landlord who grades every hop for margin. They don't even want us communicating with each other anymore, just their ai agents. Instead, what if nodes were able to broadcast out their own content. You were able to own the hardware in behind walls and control not only what you broadcast out, but what you bring in. To go out and recieve the feeds from other nodes operating in the same. Many small sticks make strong branch.

We will make our own index system via embracing and extending the kademlia protocol. A decentralized, peer-to-peer (P2P) distributed hash table (DHT) protocol designed for lookup and storage in decentralized networks. Utilizing a unique XOR-based metric to measure "closeness" between nodes, it efficiently locates resources in only a few steps, often used by BitTorrent and Ethereum.

Great questions. First we must assess what (hardware wise) and when is joining our network. We must properly associate hardware capabilities with Energy Anchors. This allows us to on the meta layer assign tasks to mesh nodes whomst are best capable at serving out that job. For example we will need low latency nodes for notary services and combining zksnark rollups. And more

Joining means: bootstrap into the DHT, your device is assigned an Energy Anchor amount of work. When that is complete, based on the time signature and the pool of work you're in, your machine is now bound to a fixed identity in ID space.

3) All their UI decisions are bad.
They're trying to turn it into an interactive spam experience of interacting (usually painfully) with the browser itself whereas I just want it to render and GTFO. The usual enshittifying stuff. They have nothing left to do so they make it worse intentionally.

10 isn't EoL yet because of its extended security updates, which give it life until October 2028.
Running 10 22H2 with the ESU will allow you to stay on 10 and use most any modern program is currently the best way to stay on 10, while IoT LTSC 2021 gives you the five more years of updates but some programs are stubbon about wanting to be run on 22H2 instead of 21H2. Going with 2024 gives you updates until 2035 while having an 11 base which means any modern program will run on it fine.

does anyone else find it exacerbating that people push ai in coding when it basically does jack shit? maybe if you're clueless or a noob, it can describe the process for something, otherwise I find it pretty underwhelming. the essence of coding is about building layers of abstraction, ai seems to get stuck on the first two layers, it can't reason on a higher level for some reason, and if it could it’d be self aware

the fact that nobody has bankrupted adobe by making an opensource photoshop or microsoft word clone is more proof of this

I daily drive windows, but I use Linux for gayming. I built a console PC with SteamOS, I mainly do gayming on Linux, because I rely on repacks and cracks and I simply don't want to install that shit where my private data and accounts are.

I might get a Macbook soon and use it as daily driver + Linux for gayming.

How are you so retarded? If by "every distro you've tried" do you mean fucking arch and templeOS? Unless you're really fucking around with your system configuration, changing things that an update would assume remains constant for a normal user, you shouldn't have any issues. And if you do need obscure tweaks for some reason, you'd better learn how they actually work and their implications. Just use mint or Debian, don't be a massive fucking retard, and you'll be fine.

There was a /g/ thread the day I got here telling me how to disable all software updates. I haven't upgraded my windows or any software unless I had to in the last 10 years. Other than the occasional random cmd window popping up and closing before I can read it, everything is stable.
>>
>>108524766
By every distro I mean all the major ones. Ubuntu, Mint, Debian, Arch, Zorin, Pop, Bazzite etc. And no, I didn't fuck around with everything. Linux is a mess compared to Windows and I don't care what cope you're bringing to the table. You can use Linux, I won't. It's garbage.

>>108524806

>>
>>108524806
I think most people can't really tell the difference. If you're not doing something retarded like running 37 VSync buffers at low refresh rate you probably already have relatively low latency and turning Reflex on will not really do anything noticeable. Going from 21ms to 9ms is probably unnoticeable or a very minor change.

Why does my Windows XP instalation on Virtual Box perform so bad? It needed all the afternoon to install and after that it was too laggy, slow and the screen ended up freezing.
Before that I've had another instalation, this time Windows 7 and it did not allow me to do basic things like playing solitaire either. What am I doing wrong? Is it space? RAM? I want to feel the XP experience once more

VMware Workstation Pro is now free to use, you just need to sign up on broadcoms website and figure out how to use their maze of a navigation system to DL it.

there are some guis for it, but never used one. usually you have one command to create the vm's volume, then one command to run it.
