oh, believe me... I tried that approach as a professional systems administrator
invariably, some program didn't play nice, and I had to give local admin accounts.

my solution was to use the 'dropmyrights' program from the sysinternals team which de-elevated programs to run as regular user.... so things like lookout, internet exploder, and other application could run in a safer manner. users didn't really understand it and was always an issue when dealing with 3rd party software vendors who expected full admin rights all the time

It wasn't until windows vista and the modern security paradigm implemented by microsoft that software vendors started correctly writing software to run as an un-privileged user:

I don't, i would even say that automatic driver installation is annoying. I always connect to the internet after i install drivers manually, because it will download some shit version automatically.
The only other function i can think of is maybe bluetooth, but i don't use bluetooth myself.
There are features that were removed like sane image preview application.
They also made customization impossible without third party tools - Windows 9x and XP had good builtin customization (classic styles, not actual msstyles). But if someone fancied non-classic it still was much easier to customize and there were tons of fan themes on the internet to choose from.

Hyper-v breaks qemu acceleration for me (WHPX). And used to break virtualbox acceleration for me when I still used it years ago at work. I needed to install Windows vm for SQL Server and it worked fine, but then I installed WSL2 on my host and then the VM was so slow that it was unusable. So it seems it's either Hyper-V (and WSL2) or QEMU/Virtualbox. But I tried new Virtualbox recently and it seems they added some KVM acceleration, which might work differently than old acceleration, maybe now it's compatible but QEMU is definitely not compatible.

disclaimer i'm not knowledgeable on this type of thing.
would it be possible to make an AI that can find videos based on a recording, kind of like reverse image search, but instead of an image it's someone's voice or a snippet of audio. kind of like shazam, but if you had an audio file of boxxy saying "my name is boxxy" it would find all the the videos online that have boxxy saying that.
is that doable or no?

The question is not if lisp can do things other programming languages can't. The question is performance and ease of coding.
Will something be coded in a simpler way. Probably not.
Will lisp code be faster than sonething written in c? Not a chance. And this is due to the garbage collection.

Not always true. In fact, GC will usually outperform manual memory allocation if done in a "naive" way (malloc-ing and freeing every individual object).

However, a custom allocator tailored to your specific application will always outperform any other allocation strategy by definition.

Here is a fact-based summary of the story contents:

You plug in a brand-new 1TB hard drive. Windows pops up with the good news: 931GB available. You do the math, and that's 69 gigabytes that appear to have evaporated somewhere between the factory and your USB port. No warning, no receipt, no explanation. Just fewer gigabytes than you paid for, staring back at you from the taskbar. For some, the immediate fear is that they've been scammed, leading them to look for ways to test real drive capacity and spot a fake before they even copy their first file.

The part that might annoy you more than the missing space itself is that nobody is wrong here. Not the manufacturer, not your operating system, and not even the box the drive came in. The number you were promised and the number you got are, technically, the same number. So what happened here?
Your drive has every byte it promised
Your OS is just measuring them with a longer ruler

Hard drive manufacturers stick to the decimal system, the same base 10 logic we use in everyday measurements. So when they say 1TB, they mean exactly 1,000,000,000,000 bytes. One trillion, nice, clean, and no tricks there.

The confusion creeps in when your operating system gets involved. Windows measures storage capacity using the binary (base-2) system, which lines up better with how a computer's architecture actually works. The catch is, it still labels everything using the familiar decimal terms. So when Windows encounters your trillion bytes, it doesn't divide by 1,000 to get gigabytes. Rather, it divides by 1,024 because, in binary, the nearest tidy power of two to 1,000 is 1,024. Then it does that again, and again, and once more for good measure. By the end of it, your 1TB drive shows up as roughly 931GB.


https://www.makeuseof.com/author/oluwademilade-afolabi/
>>
A simple way to picture it is this: the manufacturer measured your drive in kilometers. Windows came along and measured that same distance in miles. Nothing physically changed, but the number you see did. Or if you want a slightly nerdier version: the drive maker uses a ruler where 1TB equals exactly 1,000,000,000,000 bytes. Windows uses a longer ruler, one where "1TB" stretches to 1,099,511,627,776 bytes. On that scale, your drive does not quite make it to the end, even though nothing is actually missing.


Here is where this story gets a little absurd. The naming confusion has, on paper at least, already been solved. Back in the late 1990s, the International Electrotechnical Commission introduced a new set of units for binary measurements in IEC 60027‑2, later consolidated in the IEC 80000‑13 standard used today. Under that system, a kilobyte stays at a clean 1,000 bytes; no confusion there. But 1,024 bytes gets a new name: a kibibyte. And from there it scales up: mebibytes, gibibytes, tebibytes. Slightly awkward names, actually, but very precise.

A gibibyte, or GiB, is the one that matters here. It is what Windows has effectively been showing you this whole time. The system measures storage in binary units (gibibytes) but labels it as gigabytes, which is where that hard drive uncertainty sneaks in. That small "i" in the middle carries about a 7% difference in meaning, and Windows just... leaves it out.
>>
>>108415712
>>108415716
this is a fucking technology board, everyone on the board already knows
if not, /g/ has truly fallen
>>
There is even a formal standard, called IEC 80000-13 (2025 edition), that explicitly defines these decimal and binary prefixes. A gigabyte is one billion bytes. A gibibyte is the binary counterpart. If Windows labeled things properly and wrote "GiB" instead of "GB," most of this confusion would disappear overnight. But it doesn't. Instead, it borrows the decimal label and applies it to a binary measurement, and has done so for long enough that most people assume the confusion is the truth.

Despite these IEC measurements having existed for more than two decades, most people have never heard of them, myself included, until a few moments ago, when I started writing this. Because they remain some of the most commonly confused tech terms, and there are no hard-and-fast rules governing which measurement a company can or should use, the standoff continues indefinitely.
The gap keeps widening with one OS already switched sides
And some manufacturers were actually sued over this
The mac storage panel.

At the kilobyte level, the difference between decimal and binary is less than 2.4%. By the time you reach terabytes, that gap has grown to about 10%. A 2TB drive shows up as roughly 1.81TB, a 5TB drive as around 4.54TB, and an 18TB drive as about 16.4TB in Windows. The nothing gets bigger every time you upgrade to a larger hard drive.
>>
Not everyone went along with this approach. When macOS X 10.6 Snow Leopard came out, Apple made a low-key but meaningful switch. It started reporting storage using the decimal system. So a 1TB drive shows up as… well, 1TB. Meanwhile, Windows still reports that same drive as 931GB. Both are technically correct. They're just speaking different dialects of the same language.

The confusion hasn't just lived in forums and comment sections either. It's made its way into courtrooms. Companies like Western Digital and Seagate have faced legal challenges over this exact issue. Both ended up settling and now include disclaimers explaining that usable capacity may differ from what's printed on the box. There's no admission of wrongdoing, but an acknowledgment that the gap between what a box says and what a computer reads is real enough to require a disclaimer.

Interestingly, there is one place in Windows where this whole decimal-versus-binary debate does not really exist: RAM. Memory has always been measured in binary because that's how it's addressed at the hardware level. So 8GB, 16GB, 32GB, those are really 8, 16, 32 gibibytes. And in this one case, the number you see lines up perfectly with reality.
Your terabyte is fine

So, now you see that the 69GB that seems to vanish every time you buy a terabyte drive isn't actually missing. It never existed in the form you expected it to. You bought a trillion bytes, you have a trillion bytes, but your operating system is showing you those bytes measured with a slightly oversized ruler it hasn't bothered to relabel in thirty years.

The storage is all there. It always was. The only thing still up for debate, oddly enough, is what we should call it.

>For some, the immediate fear is that they've been scammed, leading them to look for ways to test real drive capacity and spot a fake before they even copy their first file.
a fake would report high capacity and then fail when you try to actually store data
or just be a legit smaller disk sold as bigger and therefore report much less than 1024*1024*1024*1024 bytes rather than just modestly less

>>108413950
The acid reflux and stomach things are likely due to stress. I had it happen when I first started working.
You should try to fix it asap because in the long run it can change the surface of the esophagus and increase your chances of suffering esophagus cancer, which is one of the deadliest because detecting it on time for treatment is very rare.
High levels of cortisol in general are one of the things that is the most correlated with suffering an early death.
If you stay low stress, exercise a bit or at least walk and sleep a good amount of hours, you will be fine. Also try to sit in a correct posture.

I had a lot of thoughts on the ban on nvidia exports to China. My main thoughts are that it's dumb and at best a short term setback against China.

It's better for America to just sell nvidia chips to China and keep them on the ecosystem than kick them out and give all the domestic chipmakers there a captive market.
