Which laptop should I buy if I want to use it for programming and gaming while running Linux? Probably want something that's a bit more capable than the traditional ThinkPad meme at least (but not writing off modern ThinkPads), but also not a bulky Windows gaming PC that weights a ton and an heros itself with fan usage after running MapleStory or some shite
>>107611532You should probably be a bit more specific than that about what kind of gaming you're going to be doing. On a scale of candy crush to crysis in 2007, how graphically demanding are the games going to be?>>107610887Seems like a massive overpay to me>>107610178Might wanna consider something like a t14 gen 2 AMD laptop. They supposedly use very little power compared to their intel counterparts. From what I've read it has to be a zen 3 or newer though because that's when they get the p-state feature. Doubt anything will come even close to the ARM processors though.

So last time I've checked /g/ was around 2008. Now watched some youtube vids on this topic and seems like Fedora is one of the best? WTF how did it came to this? Noone talked about Fedora back then.
>>107610404*the transition is complete
>>107610404The biggest annoyance with Fedora is that most non-repo distributed software is still .deb instead of .rpm
>>107610404discovery is kinda buggy and kde is still a DE with many problems, specially if you want to use it on any stable distro, but on fedora it is alright. i agree with mint being redundant for new users now, even tho fedora has its problems
I'm still kinda surprised why smug lizard is not more popular on /g/. It just werks.
>>107602975Zorin is way better than Mint
>just use zram bro
You vill use ze ram
>>107610832Not him but doesn't zswap compress the RAM too?
>>107610909It's only for swapped pages.
>>107610909no
Technically speaking what is stopping RAM stick manufacturers from putting cloud RAM onto the PCB aside from cost?

Given the ongoing job market situation, I have decided to adopt a secret personal policy of racial prejudice when it comes to networking with, giving referrals, and generally helping others advance in this field. I'm just not sure exactly what my policy should be. One thing's for sure, no jeets are getting in. I'm thinking Asians in general are going to be excluded too, not because I dislike them (although a non-trivial portion I do), but just because there's too many of them and they're too smart. Obviously whites will be given full preferential treatment granted they are competent.How about central/south Americans? I think they get in, they're generally harmless and could even be hard workers without being snakes like Indians. Blacks get in too - I know what you're thinking, but bear with me - because their more hood nature serves as a direct antagonist to the jeet's bootlicking loyalty to his master that threatens the quality of life of the rest of the workers, a little bit of chaos is good, just as long as there aren't too many of them, and right now, in tech, there aren't and I don't really see that changing any time soon.That leaves the more gray areas. How about Arabs? How about north Africans (e.g. Algerians, Tunisians)? Any other cases I forgot, or feedback on my choices? This is an important topic to me as I'm in sort of a privileged position, and I want to use my powers wisely and for good.

What's the issue with Rust?So far It has nice modern features like a cleaner syntax, and their memory system seems better than C or C++.Dunno why trannies is a computer science argument, since I don't care about rust developers fetiches.
>>107611685>I don't care what your taste on games is, retard.It's not about taste, it's about objective success or lack of it. Do you remember the absolute shitfest Cube World development was? Or maybe you have heard about that Hypixel game that recently had some buzz around it? There was a ton of voxel RPGs, mostly started by young developers who love Minecraft but have 0 ideas about game dev. And they all went nowhere, Rust or not.>wow a low effort excuse me MINIMALIST game made by a grifting youtuber who's banking on making back his cost with a viral video baiting rustards like you.Sometimes minimalism as all you need. Especially in logic games. Ever played Patrick's Parabox? That one is amazing despite simple fundamental concepts. If you want something more rich then there is that city medieval builder/designer that I forgot name that is written in Rust.I don't know any more examples. Mostly because no one really cares what language game is made in and, like I said, Rust is not a good language to make games in.>find someone a bit less biased or show why you're not.I don't need. I use both C++ and Rust and I can make comparison myself.

Except that "Rust is not a good language for game dev". Do you consider this a non sequitur? If so, then why do you think Rust is a good pick for game dev?
>>107612194that's not what you first said. you said rust was bad for prototyping, then implied it's good for gamedev. stop moving the goal posts like it's on a linear servo track. you even tried to argue that games should be minimalist because they're good and so happens to be the only kind of garbage you can write in reasonable time too.
>>107612224>you said rust was bad for prototyping, then implied it's good for gamedev.No. Rust is bad for prototyping therefore it is bad for game dev since game dev involves a lot of prototyping.>games should be minimalistI disagree. There are some genres like logic games where minimalism can work, but a minimalist rpg doesn't sound fun desu. One of my favourite games is Noita and I wouldn't consider it minimalist. If anything, it's more emergent than minimal.

>>107610539I'm right handed and it's a godsend on image and video programs, because I've never bothered learning most shortcuts, and because I just instantly move my thumb a little instead of stretching my fingers across the keyboard, hoping I hit the right keys.
>>107607012My trackball hurts my wrist.Mice are better.But I’m looking into keyboard mouse emulation via qmk firmware.
I have used this 20 dollar mouse for a little more than a decade. I actually bought another one a few years later, both still work. The side inputs I've used to spam mastery and emotes in League of Legends
>>107607012op, I love touching balls.
>>107607012What infuriates me is they won't make these kinds of things on GAMEPADS. Why, why, why? They're HID (Human Input Devices), just because DirectX/XInput limits itself to a certain set of known ABXYLR buttons+triggers/sticks, doesn't mean you ought to prohibit yourself by law from adding a few extra function buttons that can be read by the PC or at least interpreted as keyboard signals. There are plenty of extra functions I would love to be able to bind when using a gamepad for varied purposes and even taking stick presses there's never enough buttons to go around. And don't get me started on "back paddles"! Those fucking things are almost always relegated to just being clones of other button inputs on the controller. which makes them fucking useless. What's the POINT?They should just make a gamepad with an extra panel like op pic with a number pad or some other custom bindable buttons in the center. God, quit wasting my time just releasing the same thing over and over with "NEW: slightly better sticks than the last stick technology!"

What was the greatest graphics card ever? I'm thinking it was the 9800gtx. Having this in '08 was like unlocking every game in existence.
>>107609608well if you want to be pedantic, directx existed, but direct3d was still new-and-upcoming, and opengl had been around for years, but it was made for expensive workstations, so not suited for cheap consumer hardware. the voodoo instead used a cut-down form of opengl called glide that just included the parts real-time games needed

New Zeihan video just dropped. Firstly, the report that Reuters put is out is straight up CCP propaganda, it's highly highly likely to be fake, just another chinese psyop. 2ndly, even if it was true, it doesn't actually mean anything. It was directly reversed engineered and cobbled together via old ASML EUV parts, China didn't actually make anything themselves, they just glued a bunch of old ASML EUV parts together into a barely functional machine. They are still decades away from mass production of true EUV.Let's look at the timeline as per Zeihan. As the report states, it will be 2030 before they can produce a single chip from it. A super shitty chip with lots of defects and horrible yields as the EUV machine is a 2ndhand piece of shit. It will take another decade after 2030 to improve the machine until it has the performance of ASML's current EUV machines. And every fabs needs like dozens of EUV machines, with hundreds of fabs needed to produce enough semiconductors for China's needs . Even with a viable EUV machine, China will need to build up the supply chain to mass produce the EUV to the tune of dozens a month to catch up to TSMC's output, which will take another 10-15 years.So add everything together and we're looking at another 25-30 years before China can mass produce 2nm chips. And of course, in the 2050s, ASML will be on next next gen lithography and TSMC will be on picometer nodes. China will always be decades behind.This is why Zeihan states that 7nm is also actually a chinese L. Huawei produced 7nm in 2023 and they are still stuck on it. And they will be stuck on it for the next 25 years. 7nm is the last major node that China will ever produce. After all, there's the fact that China will 100% collapse by 2030 anyway, maybe even before their "EUV machine" can ever fab it's first wafer.
