what constitutes a "PC" in the modern day?
>>107532865>>107532884i remember those times and those terms were just used for tech illiterates because it would communicate the concept well enough. the mac was still a PC at the time
>>107532729personal computer like a computer you own and use yourself and not a work computer,server...im writing this from a pc>>107532768MBs with soldered ram are pretty common actually and soldered ram makes sense for minipcs
>>107534113>i remember those times and those terms were just used for tech illiterates because it would communicate the concept well enough. the mac was still a PC at the timeOther way around actually. Calling everything a PC was easier to the tech illiterate to sell. Anyone with a brain used PC, Mac, Amiga, Atari, etc as a platform, otherwise you'd end up buying software (or even hardware) for the wrong platform. Like imagine mail ordering something from a distributor, saying PC and getting a DOS copy of a game instead of ST.
>>107534182>Like imagine mail ordering something from a distributor, saying PC and getting a DOS copy of a game instead of ST.right, that's why the term stuck. because of tech illiterates. they're all PCs, but illiterates (in all subjects) catch on to a certain term for a certain kind of thing, so the retail industry follows. you ask for "PC" you get something for a certain kind of PC because that's what youre expecting.
>>107534122>personal computer like a computer you own and use yourself and not a work computer,server...exactly, but >What happens if you own the device, but it runs programs out of your control? Like spyware, pup's, malware or intrusive ads?Is it still a 'personal' computer then? Are you still the 'owner' or has it become a subscription?
why overpay for RAM and GPU when a PS5 is like $350 and runs games just as fine as a PC.
>>107526959I played Soma on my PC and it was really kino, despite being a bad game it was still almost too spooky for me.Also I paid 0 dollars plus tip (00 cents) for it.
>>107527095>>107531216I never paid for any software, what is the point of paying when i can get it for free?
>>107532181>>107533429>>107534611>can't afford games>won't be able to afford a gaming pc in the futureit will fix itself lol
>>107527091i really want to download from fitgirl but im getting filtered because theres like 100 files to download. im somewhat tech savvy but for some reason am unable to figure out how to install all those files for one game.

This doesn't work anymore. It's over.
>>107532824Yes but you can disable it or earn BAT coins by watching advertising
>>107530869Huh?
>>107532860Unironic question about Brave's BAT, what can you do with it? Is there any use for it?
>>107533093The original way that it was billed was that you could earn this crypto and then exchange it for money, which sounds nice. However, when you do the math, and yes, I have done the math, you would need to Interact with 30 advertisements per day every day for a month in order to earn $5. Then you would have to take that $5 to a crypto exchange which supported BAT In order to convert it to an actual legitimate crypto like Bitcoin, which incurs pay service fee. And then there's another service fee to withdraw that as cash or to deposit it onto a credit card or into a bank account.So no, at the end of the day you can't actually use it for anything because the amount of money that you would get back is so tiny and the amount of such extensive ad viewing you'd have to do to earn it in the first place is insane.

Linux music players are technology. So let me shill the most amazing one that design focused GNOMERs will know to appreciate (KDE users do not reply) (posted from KDE) the name isEuphonica (flatpak installed) [MPD client with delusions of grandeur]it's an MPD client, MPD is a cock to setup that makes no sense whatsoever to have in current year, but THIS is the besst music player client ever made on Lonisx OS +gnu/. I know because I tried all of them, Gappless, Recordbox, Amberol, Vvave(shit), Tauron(autistic and yet not that feature'full), Strawberry(just why?)...No it doesn't have all the features, but this is the best UX (excluding having to install a worthless suckless-nile music streaming server)Sayonara and especially Elisia are banned from this thread. THanks and discuss. What music player do you use?
>>107522053strawberry lets you

just switched to desktop linux, im using audacious right now but im not in love. what i really NEED is something that works with like 30000 songs and lets me have a global shortcut to skip to a random song, but then continue playing the as normal from that random song. Foobar did this but I can't figure out how to do it in audacious, best i can do is a shortcut to toggle shuffle. Any suggestions?

>>107531950No, the UNIX people were so incompetent that their own processor failed catastrophically (AT&T Hobbit).
>>107534211Except CISC processors just transform your long fancy instructions to RISC anyway with microcode
>>107534112the hardware is not open sourcethe ISA is open source, which is a purely legalfag distinction because the x86 ISA is also fully documented and nothing physically stops you from making an x86 compatible CPU except for the threat of Intel goons showing up at your door and demanding money.
You're just a seething western racist as usual of the chyna bad shills lol then you're forced to capitulate a few years later that their product does it better without the scam western pricingAnd as the cliche regarding the "risk character" goes:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8sDE4mZpUY
