if it's dots the solution is the slide with the number of dots that only appears once
if it's shapes it's the shape that only appears once
if it's letters once again it's the slide that only appear once. Slides usually appear in pairs so you'll have 2 slides with the same letter highlighted, or two slides with nothing highlighted, and then one slide that's unique

position, angle, color, background, etc don't matter

JFK didn't accomplish anything. Didn't even serve 1 term before inting. He doesn't deserve the praise he gets, doesn't deserve any coins or airports.

>there are people who still use BIOS over UEFI and turn off secure boot in the year 2025 on this board
What the fuck is your problem?

UEFI/GPT has been the standard for a decade. UEFI supports larger drives, boots faster because UEFI runs in 32/64-bit mode rather than 16-bit mode, handles initializing multiple hardware devices during boot better than BIOS/MBR, and supports modern hardware better than BIOS/MBR in general. Unless you have an ancient computer, it is almost certainly UEFI/GPT OTB.

I can't think of a reason to use BIOS/MBR if your computer supports UEFI/GPT.

that depends. if you're syncing your microsoft keys to their azure cloud, then the glowies can subpoena (or use their backdoor access) to azure to retrieve your keys. though even if you aren't syncing, if you're using bitlocker, bitlocker might have a backdoor built into its algorithm/functionality that the glowies can use, but this hasn't been proven yet, and the problem is that it's not auditable to the public.

veracrypt is open source and has been publicly audited. doesn't mean it's perfect, and it's not FIPS compliant to use if you're a glowie yourself.

if your threat surface are glowies, they will get your drive unlocked, even it comes to physical coercion. but veracrypt OR bitlocker will protect you against most other attack vectors. don't make enemies with glowies is the best advice there is. and don't do anything stupid that would put you in such a position. be a normie, abide by the law, and you'll be fine. whenever your threat surface is glowies, you've already lost. glows have infinite resources at their disposal and can do anything to you which will break you.

*) UEFI shits up the boot menu with their retarded entries. You need to fucking manually delete old entries from linux command line to clean that shit.
*) Replaces a bootloader with a shittier one. Legacy boot loader doesn't shit up the boot menu with entries.
*) It's redundant, sorry I prefer having a nice boot menu, especially if I have multiple options, for example having multiple kernel versions and a timeout.
*) Boot time doesn't matter.
**) With multiple selections you have a timeout either way.
**) You boot a system once in a fucking long time.
**) I remember times when I waited 2 mins for computer to boot. Current times are nothing in comparison.
*) Can't chain load another bootloader. Can't make an entry that will chain load windows so I have Linux and Windows from one boot menu.

It improves nothing. Adds annoying stuff. Is more complex. Adds fucking retarded partitions. Mounts a fucking efi vars. Allows for "bricking your computer" by allowing system to fuck around with firmware. I don't trust a system with updates and I DEFINITELY don't trust them with firmware updates. The firmware should be updated manually, by the conscious user that knows WHY does he want to update the firmware.
Secure Boot and TPM are anti-user features. Fortunately they are not needed even with UEFI boot. But still efi vars and firmware updates are cons for me.
>>
>>107628039
forgot to mention there's also LUKS, but if you trust OPAL (self-encrypting drive that doesn't take a performance hit), LUKS2 supports this now (before only bitlocker did that). this was added in version 2.7 of cryptsetup in 2024.

so if you're using linux on a laptop, use LUKS2+OPAL support and you will have an encrypted device without a performnace hit.
https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/cryptsetup/v2.7/v2.7.0-ReleaseNotes

still, OPAL is closed source like bitlocker, so glowies can probably get your stuff. though, as I said before, if glowies are your threat surface, you're already fucked.

I was an intelboomer still using sandy bridge 9 years after release. My CPU finally became unstable at 4GHz despite the voltage being much lower than the "safe" margin. All these newer CPUs are coming out with much smaller margins and aren't lasting as long. These newer CPUs won't last 5 years. Another reason I've switched to direct die cooling, anything to reduce temps/voltage.

What's wrong with 24/7 AI surveillance and mandatory digital ID for web browsing and computer/phone access if it decreases crime and human suffering?
10 replies omitted. Click here to view.
>>
>>107628374
Here's the idea I have in mind

-When setting up computer/phone for the first time, you need internet access and digital ID + selfie to unlock. From there on you need a selfie to unlock your phone/computer every time and your face must be monitored at all times to ensure there is no identity fraud.
-Secure Boot with hard coded unchangeable keys ensuring only operating systems with compliant AI surveillance suite are allowed to run. This AI surveillance suite will monitor your screen contents in live time constantly and send screensots + snapshot of your face to authorities if it detects anything bad.
-ISPs will be required to verify your digital ID before allowing you internet access, and must store all your unencrypted traffic associated with your digital ID. VPNs will have similar requirements or will be outright banned or regulated to require licensing and special permission to run in niche approved use cases (still monitored though).
>>
>>107628374
Can you trust government 100% always until you die?
Can you trust this will never be exploited?
Can you trust yourself that you will never be at a wrong place at a wrong time?
Can you trust AI that it will never interpret your, or anyone around you, jokes as a thought crime?

>>107628851
These concerns exist regardless of AI. The AI is simply more advanced monitoring, like the introduction of surveillance cameras was. It will send data to the police who use their discretion to decide what to do. And "wrong place at wrong time" is actually less likely when you are 24/7 tracked.
>>
>>107628374
The argument for total surveillance often relies on Utilitarianism—the idea that safety for the majority justifies the loss of privacy for the individual. However, critics argue this creates a "pyrrhic victory" where the cost of safety is the loss of what makes society worth living in.
1. The Psychological Cost: "Social Cooling"
When people know they are watched 24/7, they undergo social cooling. They stop taking risks, exploring "fringe" ideas, or behaving eccentrically. This creates a society of forced conformity, stifling the innovation and dissent necessary for social progress.
2. Function Creep & Political Control
Surveillance tools rarely stay within their original scope. A system built to stop "crime" can easily be repurposed to:
* Suppress Dissent: Identifying and silencing political rivals or whistleblowers.
* Enforce Social Credit: Throttling web access or freezing funds based on "civic behavior" or legal but "unpopular" opinions.
3. The "Honeypot" Risk
Mandatory digital IDs create a single point of failure.
* Security: If a central database is hacked, every aspect of your life (medical, financial, social) is compromised at once.
* Algorithmic Error: If an AI "glitches" and flags you incorrectly, you could be "deleted" from society—unable to work, communicate, or buy food—with no human recourse.
4. Loss of Human Dignity
Philosophically, total surveillance treats humans as objects to be managed rather than autonomous beings. It assumes everyone is a "pre-criminal" and removes the "Right to be Forgotten," meaning a single mistake can follow a person forever, preventing redemption.
> Summary: While crime might drop, the result is a "Goldfish Bowl" society—safe, but devoid of the privacy, anonymity, and freedom required for a healthy, evolving democracy.

>Thank you, anons. Thank you for this shit.
No thanks required buddy.
I've been advocating for years that unused RAM is wasted RAM along with the messaging that software needs to be more efficient.
I also love AI, it's great. I hope it continues. If it can filter more people outside of the PC space who would buy an nvidia GPU then that's a win. So really friend, no need to thank me. However I do want to note, you could have purchased 64GB of RAM back in 2016-2017 quite easily, or even farther ahead when it got cheaper and it would cost you less then, that it would now. So it would seem that thanking me isn't in order and perhaps you should locate a mirror and thank that person instead for the situation you are currently in.

Have a pleasant holiday anon.
