Refund, duh

wait how do I update libreboot if I built it from source
pull, build, flash again? I gotta re-apply my settings?

pls help, I need a thinkpad for making simple games (rendered with pbr methods, no raytracing) and it also needs to be a tuner laptop for my car. It needs to run both linux and windows, Cost doesn't matter, I want it to be good. I'm coming from a surface laptop and I'm tired of random things like usb drivers not working :((

My thinkpad isn't charging and only works with a connected power supply. When I remove it thinkpad shuts down. What do I do?

>muh contrast
OLED has too many issues that retards avoid to talk about
>black crush
>vrr flicker with blacks
>black smearing on low brightness
>color hue shift when viewed off angles at a close distance
>shittier whites and overall brightness
i came from good ips panels and have never felt an ave feeling that people hype about oled. and i compared it side by side on a daily basis. the blacks felt like a gimmick, given all the downsides. and i didn't even mention the burn-in issue (simply because i haven't experienced it yet and led wears out with time too, just not as notably)

there's also font fringing issues, but I will blame software for this for not keeping up with the hardware development and different pixel arrangements.

OLED burn-in after 20k hours is less severe than IPS bleed-in at t=0

yesn't

I don't think Windows can ever truly die. 90% of society is dependant on it for their work. The US government will never let them kill it either

To answer your question simply: Yes, they essentially create a global symbol table, but no, they don't just dump the raw function names into it (except for C).
Most compiled languages (C++, Rust, Go, Swift, D) compile source files into Object Files (like .o or .obj). These object files contain a mini-symbol table. The Linker then combines these into one massive list to resolve connections.
Here is the breakdown of how this works and how modern languages improve upon the old C model.
1. The Universal Mechanism: "Provided" vs. "Required"
regardless of the language, almost all compiled languages generate object files that contain two specific lists:
Exports (Definitions): "I have a function named X located at memory offset 0x123."
Imports (Undefined References): "I am trying to call a function named Y, but I don't know where it is."
The Linker is a program that reads all the object files, finds the "Exports" from one file, and plugs them into the "Imports" of another.
2. The Problem: The "Flat" Namespace
In C, if you write void init() in File A and void init() in File B, the linker will crash with a "Duplicate Symbol" error. This is because C uses the raw name. The global symbol table is "flat."
How C handles it:
You have to manually prefix functions: audio_init, video_init.
You use the static keyword to tell the compiler: "Do not put this name in the global symbol table; keep it private to this file."

>>107838511
C: Uses raw names. Rely on the programmer to make names unique or hide them with static.
C++: Uses Mangling. Encodes the class name and argument types into the symbol string.
Rust/Swift: Uses Heavy Mangling. Encodes the package/crate name, module path, and a hash into the symbol string.
Go: Prefixes the Package path.

but some people want a bigger UI

Just use both mpv and mpcqt depending on the scenario. I made wrappers for both media players

~/.local/bin/mediaplayer

setsid ~/Applications/mpv-master/build/mpv  --player-operation-mode=pseudo-gui --stop-screensaver=always --volume=84   --geometry=50%:50%  --autofit=500 --autofit-smaller=360x800   --force-window --loop-playlist \
--cache=yes --cache-secs=60 --demuxer-seekable-cache=yes --demuxer-max-bytes=200M "$@" >/dev/null 2>&1 & 

~/.local/bin/mediacenter

setsid mpc-qt "$@"  >/dev/null 2>&1 &

and here is a bonus fun one for playing videos as puzzles in vlc
~/.local/bin/puzzlevid
setsid vlc --video-filter=puzzle --puzzle-rows=4 --puzzle-cols=4 --no-audio "$@" >/dev/null 2>&1 &

>>Your Intel CPU has had an entire embedded SoC in it running MINIX in it for 10 years now, I'm pretty sure AMD's PSP is the same.
>yet none of you fucking brainlets have any fucking shred of proof about it

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Management_Engine

"The Intel Management Engine always runs as long as the motherboard is receiving power, even when the computer is turned off. This issue can be mitigated with the deployment of a hardware device which is able to disconnect all connections to mains power as well as all internal forms of energy storage."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMD_Platform_Security_Processor

Critics worry it can be used as a backdoor and is a security concern.[3][4][5] AMD has denied requests to open source the code that runs on the PSP.[1]

1. INTEL‑SA‑00086 (2017) — Multiple ME/SPS/TXE RCE flaws

This is the most infamous ME vulnerability set. Intel confirmed that attackers could achieve remote code execution in ME, SPS, and TXE firmware.

Intel described these as security issues that “could potentially place impacted platforms at risk”

The advisory covered multiple privilege‑escalation and RCE‑capable bugs in ME firmware.

2. 2024–2025 ME Firmware Flaws (incomplete fixes)

Security researchers reported that recent ME firmware vulnerabilities were not fully fixed, leaving systems exposed.

Good. Yank dominance in tech needs a challenger for the consumer's sake.

Telecommunications, systems/infrastructure engineering. Because the company is severely understaffed at actual engineering positions but has output demands and plans of fucking Palantir, I do pretty much everything that is even remotely adjacent to it - from testing relatively new Intel E830 NICs to fixing a testbed stand because the interns fucked up the physical layer. Also, a fuckton of DevOps stuff, writing my own playbooks at this point.

But hey, pays above average in this shithole and I get 4 out of 5 workdays on remote now. Also I occasionally get sent to a random city on the country map to either install or fix shit on client's premise because we don't have an installation team. I am the installation team, pretty much, with a few other engineers - but because of the nature of the product it ain't that easy and we are all spread across the locations. So I pretty much have to perform the entire installation cycle by myself, from hardware in the racks to performance and load testing under live traffic.

Fuck, I miss being unemployed.

requirements
>expert feeds them into whatever LLM is the most saveur du jour and ensures it didn't hallucinate too much
>QA subhumans (jeets) validate it without even knowing what a hardware platform is thank for reading my rant

Note: I'm in industrial automation so it's not as accurate for webdevs n sheeeit

Should I make an app and market it to become a millionaire?

You only go to college because it's a fucking mechanical system required to get a fucking paper that some employer might give a rats ass about. You don't go to college to fucking learn anything.
