Linux and FOSS are actually mostly used by political right and countries that do not follow or care about your tiny woke bubble where you cry about how "Linux is woke".>the Linux kernel or FOSS software itself does not enforce a CoC in its code, only in its community processes (like mailing lists)>you can create your own forks with your own community processes (like mailing lists) to enforce your own CoC or not have it (and it is equal to that original, not less important)>you can compile, modify, and distribute any version of the kernel without ever agreeing to a CoC>GPL gives you the legal right to fork Linux, remove what you don't like, and redistribute it, no permission needed>China, a one-party authoritarian state, uses Linux extensively without adopting Western social values>North Korea runs a Linux-based OS in total isolation from global “woke” culture>Russia, Iran, and others do the sameIf these regimes can use Linux while rejecting Western liberalism, so can you. You don't need permission to run Linux. You just need to compile it.
Hey guys, use Linux like the based fascists, ok?

I am currently in possession of a Dell Precision 5550 my school gave me and didn't ask for back; this happened 1.5-2 years ago so I forgot I even had it. I would like to use this as a personal laptop to replace my old desktop; however, the BIOS is locked, and it is running heavily restricted Windows, making it practically just a web browser.I have already read a fair bit about how this is difficult but all info regarding actually unlocking it doesn't work--any advice? Is there a reliable way to do this without having to do anything to the BIOS chips? I am fairly technical but currently do not have access to the required tools for soldering/chip flashing. I do not have a USB-C flashdrive, but since I can't even open BIOS boot order due to admin lock, I doubt it would work.Laptop model: Dell Precision 5550Bios Version: 1.22.0BIOS Mode: UEFICPU: i7-10750HGPU: Quadro T2000 (Max-Q Design)RAM: 32GiBShould this be unfeasible/too painful, I am thinking of buying a ThinkPad P53 as an alternative.I can provide more specifics if need be.
>>107684206give it back, tyrone, you fucking nigger
>>107684663>distros like Arch, Void, and Gentoo won't bootSounds like a problem with those distros, which Anon can simply avoid.
>>107684663There is always a solution, tech cannot monopolize tech.
>>107684206If you can buy another computer, you can buy some basic soldering equipment or a BIOS programmer.
>>107684944>If you can buy another computer, you can buy some basic soldering equipment or a BIOS programmer.(De)soldering SMDs on a laptop where making a single mistake would likely destroy it completely isn't a great risk to take when the laptop still has resale value. Buying a programmer and soldering gear is extra money that could just be put towards a P53 instead, which is a better laptop and is vastly more upgradable.
Jesus fucking christ, You used to be able to Google and find a detailed guide to troubleshoot something tech related now you would only get an answer from the AI and the rest of the results are just reddit threads but all replies are like subjective or " i dunno lol".
>>107682414I find it worse when you search something and get quora links. That is just such a garbage website
>>107683027Agreed, I skip right over any Quora links because the site has proven itself to be absolutely useless

I've never used ChatGPT. I only used the initial novelty versions when they were just viewed as fun novelty things back in 2019 and a short while playing with AI Dungeon in 2020.Same goes for image gen AIs, only used one of the novelty ones in like 2020-2021 once and then the NovelAI leak to make some weird art in 2022 and then did like 1 test prompt on some meme online platform.I feel like an advanced lifeform in comparison to everyone else.
Just recently got a mac mini for free from my job. m4 pro chip, 24gb ram, 512gb ssd. Booted it up, set everything up, aaaaand what the fuck:>don't have a 1500 dollar display directly from apple? don't have the 5k resolution equivalent from dell? wanna get a nice cheap 1440p or even 4k res monitor? no, sorry, not good enough, all your shit is blurry as fuck because we don't support those resolutions. >want to fix that problem? sure buddy download this software betterdisplay off github. good shit right? we fixed apples mess for you.. that'll be 20 dollars plus tip to use the whole app. also our "Fix" just makes everything scale slightly less blurry, but not actually truly outputting at the proper resolution. plus tip. also when you do this you can't have HDR enabled. You get either slightly less retarded looking text or shit scaling with hdr. your choice faggot>nice logitech/non mac mouse you got there. we're gonna purposefully fuck the scrolling up so when you scroll once it barely scrolls at all, and when you scroll a bunch all at once it torpedoes you to the bottom of the page. if you had a magic mouse from apple, there's a setting for that specifically, but if you plug anything else in you don't get to see or configure that.>don't worry there's third party apps for that too! download them.. but they all have 7 day trials and disable themselves unless you pay 20 dollars plus tip.>wanna upgrade that storage? you don't have the right. should've gotten what you wanted out of the gate, stupid. you literally can't even bring it into an apple store and pay an exorbitant fee to have a cheap ssd thrown in. we just literally don't even do it. go buy an external drive you shit head. fucking moron idiot.who's fucking allowing this stupid shit? do apple fanboys really fucking shell out this much cash just to make their shit usable? what the actual fuck is this shit?

Why is it utterly impossible for the chinese to innovate?
>>107683443Its intelligence is concentrated in the coast and it's shit due to heavy metal poisoning.
>>107683443Honest answer? They only just started to industrialize about 4-5 years ago (utterly behind on most tooling and processes). Now we see if they can make significant contributions from the periods 2025-2050.
>>107683443Why is it utterly impossible for the OP to post something new?
They innovated genshin, thats better than anything the Americans have made in the past 10 years
>>107683443evolution and genetic culling. look up the history of china. No, not the surface level shit. Their real history. Their main dominating philosophies have been 'do what the government says or get killed' and 'do what your parents say or get killed'. So every time theres been little blips of technological advancement that comes from inside china, one of two things happen: the technology is kept secret and only allowed to be used by select people then is lost when the inventor dies, or the inventor and his entire family are wiped out because this new technology infringes on the interests of someone in power who doesnt want to deal with being out competed by a commoner. Another problem with chinese culture is the concept of 'if the teacher teaches everything, then he goes hungry' so even if you could find like minded people to invent stuff, they were loathe to pass it on to the next generation.

>>107680121>>107680515who the fuck cares? they could do something more useful with their time and effort.how many companies are using ffmpeg and not contributing to the project or, worse, actively violating the license by redistributing modified, closed source copies? when was the last time we got news about ffmpeg suing actual violators like that?what's the issue with some shitty chink company distributing FOSS software under another license to hobbyists?

Oh my God why is this piece of shit so slow and useless I just want you sort a folder with 10k files by date created and it's already loading for 40 minutes, the same task literally takes 2 seconds on Linux WHAT THE FUCK ARE THEY DOING
It took so long the PC went into hibernation after an entire hour now, can't make this shit up
>>107684874still waiting for proof
>>107684874Who are you quoting? You seem to be ver apt in making shit up, like this thread
>>107684762As someone who recently searched and picked out what I wanted from a folder with well over 10,000 files on Fedora, it's about that close. Windows is such a steaming pile of shit, I was about ready to throw a company computer at the wall earlier. I would love to convince corporate to let our building switch to Oracle Linux since all we do is cloud shit in a browser anyway. That'll never happen, though.

Why not just take C++ and remove legacy baggage?Why make it so unnecessarily complicated?
There really is no decent language to start a new project in, is there?
>>107681652Your complaint about C is really about pointers. Null terminated strings are irrelevant and did not need be mentioned. Your argument would have applied just the same if C had used pascal strings, or even had a proper string object.
>>107681652Python, JavaScript, PHP, Swift, Rust, and Emacs Lisp each have different ideas about what a string is. No two are the same. Could you support all of them on the same hardware?

Why doesnt /g/ just make their own ram?
>>107681791How do you think those 4080 48gb cards work? They take a factory 24gb card and just add more VRAM and modify the firmware to be able to recognize the added memory

>>107677556davai igor this thread is for amerifags only
>>107678593>>107681791it did work like that for all nvidia graphic cards up to the 2xxx nvidia series. Then nvida started programming their newer card's firmware to reject extra soldered ram that wasnt identifiable because people kept buying up 2xxx series cards and mashing them together.>>107681806only in the west because the jews have you by the balls and force you to pay more because of fake shortages. chinese and russian gamers are eatting good. the chinese are basically living their best lives at the moment, having access to both cheap finished goods and raw materials similar to the same levels boomers enjoyed in the 1960s. remember how grandpa boomer would brag about his 3 custom cars and other retarded boomer shit? chinese are doing the same thing right now, because thats what happens when a country controls its own industry. You dont let some third party 'buy up all da ram lol' and then have their news outlets tell you 'gosh theres just nothing to be done but pay more for ram sticks that were made 5 years ago lol' because you have no control over your life or your economy.

How’s a refactor that breaks architecture going to be fixed by AI? Sure I get opus to tell me how to do it, now the shipping build that we delivered to our users is broken and all their serialized data is useless, db schemas are fucked, config files useless. And not even webshit is safe if your debt lives in the API layer. What are you going to do, maintain the old architecture and the new one? I can see him having a point with regards to transient layer systems like UI that gets rebuilt and never serialized though
