use case for rebooting without updating?
>>107689741>saaaarsHey mandeep, how long has the change request been in the queue for making this piece of shit actually shutdown after updating instead of restarting?
>>107689741>be LTSChad>power menu has options for shutting down and resetting without updating
>>107697919these options are available on all windows versions only with some updates you can't do this
>>107697953I've never seen it not appear. Probably cause it only gets security updates, though you'd think those would be the ones you'd wanna force.
>>107689741I always press the button on the front of my case until the screen goes black. there's literally no point in owning a computer if you can't virtually suffocate it to death.
Why isn't there a system call to tell the kernel that a certain piece of code is uninterruptible? this would eliminate race conditions once and for all
>>107693305At the hardware level there is: disable interrupts. However, you'll miss any interrupts that fire while you have them disabled. Also this doesn't take SMP into account: other threads and cores will keep doing what they're doing too.
>>107697225>bro just use core affinity for everythinguh no
>>107697257Back in 486 days I had a program that played wav files over the PC speaker by rapidly playing different tones and volumes. It disabled interrupts while doing this since it was very time sensitive or it would sound shitty. Since it was a 486 there weren't any negative rings yet so the only thing that could interrupt it was an NMI. It registered itself as a Windows 3.1 sound driver, and everything in the system would grind to a halt any time a sound played.
>>107697461Visual player?
>>107697522No, it was specifically meant to be a sound driver and I don't think it had any config utility or a name beyond it's filename. I think it just came with a drv file and a readme saying how to set it up in your system.ini.

>>107689945>newer is better actually because of an external thing called a modem which back then had no security and could get viruses just by connecting>so this means the operating system that was clearly better written than anything proceeding it was bad because of something unrelated to the actual codeReposting because mods deleted this for no reason LOL.
>>107697294> Active DesktopUnobtrusive, just don't use it> Most used applications badYes, because they pushed aside all the useful things and made the Start Menu worse so they could shill their own shitty programs. And even once users put their own things there it was still a poor use of prime screen real estate.
And I forgot to mention the braindead My Photos, My Videos, My Whatever folders that we still have today. Useless clutter by default.

>>107689945SP1 made XP usable, SP2 killed raw sockets and enshittified half open connections (which can be fixed with 3rd party patches but still). SP3 didn't feel like much of a change at all even though the changelog was massive.It took a few years for 2000 to actually get proper 3d hardware acceleration support, which back then was about the only reason for XP's existence as far as I'm concerned.Over time, though, 2000 support diminished and XP became the absolute minimal requirement.Today I daily drive POSReady 2009 and I've never been happier.
Anyone have experience with this, or Spectrum phone in general? I already use them for internet, because AT&T internet was fucking ass, but how's the phone lines? Need them for work. Also this feels a bit too good to be true. Need four phone lines (have 4 so perfect) plus fiber for 140 total? The 120 base price is only for 100 speed, an extra 20 for a life of 1000 seems tgtbt
It’s like calling a hybrid car an EV…
>>107697576You gotta be on the spectrum to get it
>>107697638nobody has answered your question because it belongs on reddit. go back.

Why don't phone cameras capture a square image? Then it wouldn't matter what orientation you shoot in and could just crop it afterwards.

>>107696795For the most part. It's running the kernel in a hypervisor, but there are still components that interface with the host OS for cross integrations of binaries/ABI and cross system file system handling/translations. V1 is more like the linuxolator on BSD and SunOS where it translates the calls more directly, like WINE and DARLING.
>>107695722It's basically still Windows, but with the kernel Linux used. It's not a GNU/Linux system, but it's not a "Linux" system either.

What are the hardware and software limits to how many physical buttons I can put on a USB device and still use them all as a single keyboard? It looks like Linux's tty keyboard and USB HID drivers limit you to 255 scancodes max. Is there any way to go higher on a different OS?

>>107690422>worstHow?
>>107697089Half of these are from years ago, the other half doesn't use the xwayland-native-scale that forces xwayland clients to render in fractions and neither of them are about how gnome-shell renders itself or its content but only about xwayland. Wayland clients get correctly rendered at the set fractional scaling and so does the shell itself.And of course none of these are about GTK (gnome shell doesn't use GTK) which used to do the nearest interger downscaling fractional scaling until they wrote a bunch of new backends that allowed them to do it correctly without breaking the API and having to wait until GTK 5 to do it. The new backends are the new opengl one and the Vulkan one which became the default.

Any version of Windows since 1995 has been more polished, production-ready and user-friendly than any Linux distro ever made. That's obvious to anybody who has installed both of them on the same machine.Are Linux users just lying about their distros being a better experience than a Windows installation?
>>107622384Linux isn't even close to matching Mac OS numbers, let alone Windows. If it was ever going to get a huge boost in numbers, it would be now, with the massive shill campaign on YouTube with giants like PewDiePie making videos telling people to switch to Linux while others make videos about how terrible W11 is. The mass exodus never happened. Never going to happen.
I just switched to Linux after decades on Windows. I took the time to learn the nuances and difficulties people run into as new Linux users. Windows is absolute dogshit. If you think Windows is better you either don't actually think or are paid to do so.

They basically believed that the after life was a world nearly the same as the real world, but it was a world of black and white, of shadows and shades. So when the white devil with their lightning sticks and fire water rolls up with a machine that shows them the spirit world, of course they would freak the fuck out. As soon as the colored photography tech tree was unlocked, they stopped being spooked by it.
