Thoughts on Java-based languages? Is it worth learning any of them?
>>107541722Just learn java, there's no point in learning Kotlin or Scala because they all run on the same JVM. It's like trying to learn to speak like an Aussie while already knowing American/British.Also, Kotlin's syntax is hot ass garbage.

>>107541783>Just learn java, there's no point in learning Kotlin or Scala because they all run on the same JVMoh so Rust/C/C++ is also pointless because it runs just on the same x86 instructions as x86 assemblyFlawless logic
>>107541722The tooling for JVM languages is terrible, it's basically impossible to get anything done without an IDE. Might be worth learning java if you need a job, but a lot of companies are moving from java to go.

Why isn't there a unixlike environment that uses lisp as a shell scripting environment? I guess Guix is kinda like that I suppose but it'd be really cool if it was like Emacs and every tool is a lisp program you can look at, is there any system like that?
>>107532244Is this strictly a tiling window manager? I know there's some floating features but is it like dwm where it's just for popups etc?
>>107541775on EXWM any non-emacs window can be a floating window. does dwm really have that limitation?
>>107541875Can it spawn new Emacs windows?(in contemporary sense not emac sense where frames are windows reversed)I don't know about dwm it seems like a hackjob to use it in purely floating mode. That feature was added to address problems with older tiling window managers, where application popups would sometimes take a large portion of the screen.My problem with tiling is that you have to limit your windows to fit your screen all at once same with emacs frames. I guess "scrolling" window managers fixed that with one infinite workspace but I really don't have an issue with windows overlapping.
>>107542085*frames and windows are reversed
>>107542085>Can it spawn new Emacs windows?yes, they're called workspaces in EXWM. but they can't float. it's still a tiling wm first and foremost

if this thread isnt proof that this board isn't about technology but /pol/2 for brown people making AI hentai, then i don't know what isthere are so many better tech boards, i promise
>>107541857Can't upload that here.
Does anyone else remember when this board had its anti-gaming phase? People here acted like video games were a waste of time and you're a faggot if you spend even a second playing videogames, but those same people watched hours upon hours of anime, which is no better than video games in terms of productivity or "wasting your time"You can tell it stemmed from the fact that Linux couldn't really run games. When proton came and gaming on Linux became infinitely easier, people started acting like gaming is fine.Very odd era
>>107536998With the way my brain works, I'm sure I would be doing drugs after work if I wasn't playing games, so it is a net health benefit.
GOYMESOYOU FAGGOTS ARE GOYMERS NOT GAMERSMES
>>107533626People talk about games here now because the site's current userbase doesn't understand the concept of board topics and the mods don't care enough to enforce any rules
>>107535552You are a fucking snob.

>>107540800>or for making sure a microphone doesn't pick it up if you're recording with one, but that doesn't matter in my case.NTA but if your volume isn't ultra high, your mic won't pick it up. But of course it also depends on your mic, your headphones, volume, etc. My standup mic doesn't need to be up against my mouth like you see streamers do so there's no way it will pick up my audio. Although it will pick up my keyboard lmao.

I don't really see the point of openback headphones if you can use speakers.me neither desu, I only consider closed backs.there are some very niche use cases where open backs can have some sense over speakers but most of the time they don't imo, the fact that the hifi headphone market is 90% open backs has always been quite retarded to me.

Is the battery life really that low on thinkpads? 3 hours is ridiculous for a laptop in 2025

You have disabled trolls shitting up threads anon

>>107541949I guess that's true.
>>107541992You should always point out that they are disabled it's morally correct and makes them seethe more. People always claim jeet, ect when the root of most of this is mental illness and disability. Objectively this makes the 5000 series better and while it should have been available day 1 at least we have it now.

What's /g/ opinion on Fonts?
TNR reminds me of the middle school essays I would shit out on Word in half an hour so I hate it. I don't think calibri is much better though, it's definitely overused. Very funny that font choice is a culture war issue now
