I changed my career in 2019 and managed to ride the defensive hiring wave that happened before and during the pandemic. At the time, it was really easy to get a decently paid job without knowing much.After the bubble burst in 2022–2023, I completely lost my sense of direction. I was unemployed for six months, living off my savings, and even after changing jobs, my earnings barely recovered to previous levels.I’ve since completed a postgraduate degree in AI, but it hasn’t helped much. I’m currently doing far more than I did back then—working on everything from systems integration to data science projects—and my compensation is a joke.I’ve thought about creating a SaaS, but that feels like another joke. Maybe I should make some kind of AI whorefluencer for OF/JFF instead?How are you guys doing?
>>107578872Do something with your hands
>>107578872I took on a comfy tech repair job instead. I fix PC, laptops, printers and just tinker with whatever the public bring in.pay is adequate but its actually enjoyable
>>107578872Learn defensive pen testing and get a cyber sec job scanning all the jeet and vibe coded slop for vulnerabilities
>>107578872I know it's a meme but my plan next year is to start building some small qt games for steam. The kind of games that are short but lovable in every detail. So more effort in the music and graphics, a nice story and not too complex. I always lose interest in indie games that are too time consuming and I feel like there is a lack in really good short cheap games. So that's the niche I wanna tackle. Even though the overall indie market is kinda flooded now especially with AI. I'm practicing pixel art and blender daily now.
yeah, we're fucked...
I moved to Debian and have no had issues with it.

Brave sucks, we know. Why is this thread still up?
>>107575647Brave doesn't have reproducible binaries and is proprietary. They stole money from users, did MITM, manipulated referral links etc. and is by advertisement company. Just switch to far-right Floorp and to LadyBird when it is released.

Can't get 2x16 DDR5 to post, but will post 4x16 >gskill trident expo>aorus elite b650memory with 4 modules only runs at 3200. tried A2 B2, then A1 B1 with no luck.
>>107572918A2 and B2 which is 2 and 4
>>107573906I guess try 1 and 2 then. Also, try booting to just one stick at a time using slot 1. It's possible you have a bad stick and for spooky reasons it's showing itself when you try to boot on less ram. If you have a stick it won't boot on there's your culprit.

Holy shit, how will proompters ever recover?
>>107579560I find most ai images soulless
>>107571841I kinda thought that way for a second too anon, but you're wrong. Tech bros won't automate themselves out, because AI won't be able to replace software engineering. Sorry, but it's just too abstract and complicated and it's got about a 20-30% success rate at making something working, never mind about optimised. All that said, I think the last people to have future jobs is lawfags, because those dumb faggots will just make it illegal for AI to practice law. The saddest part is that AI is basically tailor made to entirely replace lawyers, accountants, economists, and realistically all non-productive jobs.

https://resources.github.com/actions/2026-pricing-changes-for-github-actions/Selfhosted GitHub Actions will become paywalled in 3 months.Your CI/CD pipeline that runs on your own selfhosted hardware will become a paid feature thanks to M$.Now anons, will you switch to Forgejo Actions? Will you selfhost your own git forge?
>>107575641>>107576505>>107579328We will switch to Forgejo and Forgejo Actions in January.>>107578786The point of this thread was that a previously free feature will go paid, this is not a new feature, we are using selfhosted runners right now.>>107579336I've personally looked into this and will probably opt for Go-Away: https://git.gammaspectra.live/git/go-awayIt has templates ready for Forgejo usage.
Nothing they offer isn't something that's produceable locally or with a cron job. The "github actions" are just using the built in hooks feature of git anyway. Corpos will pay for it anyway because majority of their devs probably think this shit is magic and needs "the cloud" to function. Any component team could replace it in less than a day if needed for cost cutting.
>>107576195You do not need to give your credit card for private repos, they are free.>>107579463CI/CD is already running on our machines (our company servers) with selfhosted runners, they will require us to pay for executing builds on our own servers.We didn't use their cloud runners because they costs money and the setup was the exact same.

I sure hope you bought your HDD when I told you they would be next. As infinite slop is generated, exponential storage is needed. Just basic logic. The comfy 305€ 20TB Toshiba MG10 that was in my basket before summer on Alternate.de is now 500 bucks.
>>107578333yeah because the techbro geniuses screaming BUY BUY BUY BUY BUY BUY who are fueling this shortage of everything related to computing thinking they can get in on the ground floor of the new AI paradigm and are going to be jumping out of windows when the bubble bursts are obligated to know what they're talking about and make good decisions
>>107578435Meant 2.5"
>>107578333AI usually doesn't touch storage at all during prompting.However, the shit it outputs needs to go somewhere, and that is storage. Storage is layered, so the first it will go into is SSDs, but because density of HDDs, and cost per TB, are still favorable over SSDs, the data then goes into HDD based storage.
>>107573891>just got two WD 14TB externals for $130 ea, shucked datacenter white labels into my serverdont need them any time soon, dont care. sounds like a (((you))) problem.
>>107574845>With used drives I'm always worried they might die too soon or might already be dead.If you buy used drives from Tyrone, they will. If you buy used enterprise SAS drives, you can be sure that over their entire lifespan, they were never once shut down and always ran under optimum conditions.I have 8 SAS drives in my server and never once had any issues with them. And even if I had, I'm on redundancy and I still have 3 drives left just in case.

So are we going to boycott ram company brands that refused to boost production when they had the factories/machine to do so? Can we get some names of the tech companies that refused to shore up ram production for consumers? Starting with OpenAI for starting the price hike? I've already switched to Deepseek.
