>>107723564>better user experience.this is precisely why I use a physical calculator>>107734530I don't need more power. I want something that makes it very simple to get the answer I want very quickly. For 90% of small computations I can pick up my cheap casio and get the answer in less time that it would take to open excel or start r studio and dismiss the annoying update popup or launch windows' awful webshit calculator app.If I need repeatability or documentation or to do something with lots of data or calculate something that I need the specialist software to do I'll get out the big guns but a lot of the time I don't and the calculator is just better.

You now remember that Linux could do all these effects on a cheap Dell with a Pentium. Meanwhile, Windows Vista at the exact same time needed maxed out specs in order to make a window border pseudot-transparent.

>>107731760First time I saw transparent terminal window I just had to try it. I think it took 30m tops of actually working with it to disable it again.. Form over function.
does /g/ use a vpn?

>>107737260horrible fonts
This entire thread immediately associating VPN with (encrypted) IP proxies is proof that the psyop has worked.Yes, good goy. keep using the secure (honeypot) service to access insecure (honeypot) services. And don't ever think about having a home server. It's insecure.
>>107724206i pay for a vpn but i only use the socks5 included with the subscription
>>107737604It's more a case of majority of people understanding the context, which in this case is clearly about VPN as a (paid) service, and you being a pedantic faggot by saying "ackshcshually you can self host a VPN tunnel" and missing the entire point of the conversation.

>>107738903It's also ironic that they want to do anything with Rust.

Aint 4K a meme doebiet? 2.25x more demanding, yet no noticeable difference in gaming and way higher price tag.beyond 122 ppi at a 2ft+ distance the eyes cant make out detail difference in higher ppi. Your eyes have a limit how much detail it can perceive.

RIP Stewart; he was one of the last remaining links to a bygone era where home computing was genuinely exciting and Silicon Valley wasn't a neofeudalist wasteland, and even if I only got to experience the tail end of it myself, I'll always appreciate that he and Gary Kildall managed to document it so extensively as it was happeningCoincidentally, some guy from HN with an AIslop profile picture was digitizing and uploading lost Computer Chronicles episodes to the Internet Archive a month or two ago, but I haven't looked into them yet: https://archive.org/details/@davidga/lists/2/computer-chronicles-re-digitization-project

So after a lot of people switching to Linux last year you are trying to tell me Linux usage increased by 0.2% while the usage of the mysterious "unknown" operating system increased by 8%? Who still believes these bullshit numbers?
>>107735715>Consider that Linux desktops have become standard in Russia and ChinaEvery desktop PC I see on Douyin videos (Chinese TikTok) has Windows 11 installed, occasionally Windows 10.You can't run games like League of Legends or Honkai Impact 3 on Linux which are essential for Chinese gamers.
>>107735868>Honkai Impact 3All gatcha games including this one run on my Linux PC
>>107735316NTA but you can estimate the figure to be around 30-50% of desktop users. Those numbers come from the drop in viewership Youtubers noticed last year when ublock's lists suddenly started blocking the thing that counts video views.
>>107735403>YouTube view fiasco You mean the one that was only affecting channels whose audience is 99% male, 1% "female"?
>>107733421>focusing on the monthly micro-variations instead of the overall trendI am speechless.

>>107730220dang is right. people like this guy end up killing internet communities because they create nothing and share nothing but snark for those who are actually doing things. if you have too many of them you end up with twitter where everyone is dunking on everyone and nobody's doing any real work out of fear of getting dunked on. perfect environment for poseurs.
>>107738986There’s a balance.Obviously you don’t want dunk addicts going hog wild shitting up the public square.But you also need critique, most people won’t notice their fly is down unless someone else tells them.
