How come C# isn't more popular when it's basically Java but better? Is it because people distrust a language maintained by Microsoft, or does the JVM have non-obvious but crucial advantages over the CLR?

I spent 3 days testing Linux distros on some shitbox PC someone brought to me, just to find one that worked. Debian wouldn't install power management utilities with xfce, multiple flavours of Ubuntu hung during install, mx worked but was too fucking lardy, bodhi and wattos had broken sound, antix refused to render the desktop, fyde refused to boot, kolibri requires you to build it just to try it, i really wanted loc to work as it ran the best but again sound didn't work. Finally lubuntu didn't hang during install and sound worked, I don't like it but I'm not getting paid to keep going. This is a fucking normal ass old Intel laptop and there's no excuse for this shitfest

If you happen to need audio over hdmi, you will have to manage your own kernel (remove an if-statement in azalia.c). And then you might have to manually manage which device to use for audio output. I made my own scripts for that.

I genuinely do not know what to think about AI. There are so many things about it that are cool. There are so many things about it that are shit. It clogs up my grandma’s feed with fake shit, it’s making the cost of electronics go up, it’s consuming resources at an unsustainable rate and so on. It’s given me some useful tools when it comes to writing, and gives me quick answers to questions among other things, but to me, all the negatives outweigh the positives. I’m not sure if it will even be able to advance much further beyond this point given the extreme consumption of resources it demands.
What are some reasons why you support AI development? Give me some insight on why AI is a positive thing and why development should continue

In evolutionary terms, a "Pleasure Trap" occurs when the organism is exposed to "supernormal stimuli" (highly concentrated sources of pleasure) that did not exist during evolutionary development.
For millions of years, calories and dopamine-spiking resources were scarce, evolution favored the
>"Motivator Triad":
Seek pleasure (food and sex). Avoid pain. Conserve energy.
An ancestor who found a rare honeycomb would gorge on it because those calories were vital for survival. Today, we have engineered substances (processed sugar, high-fructose corn syrup, digital entertainment, drugs) that provide a dopamine hit far more intense than anything found in nature. Your brain cannot distinguish between a natural reward and a concentrated modern one. It treats the "supernormal stimulus" as a survival signal. Over time, the brain down-regulates its receptors to protect itself, meaning you need more of the substance just to feel "normal," leading to obesity or addiction.
Apply the same principle to social interaction.
>>
>>107849894
Interesting! I suppose evolution essentially "locks in" a strategy that works for the present moment but because it cannot see far into the future it can easily create a dead end where the organism is too "successful" to innovate, making it prime for extinction if the environment changes significantly.

Daisy's Destruction is an urban legend. There's literally no evidence the actual video exists. At most people claim they've seen a trailer, but there's no actual evidence that exists either, and even if it does, there's no reason to believe it's part of a longer video, and even if it is, there's no way to know what that video might contain.

#define __NR_mmap                9


this is probably my favorite syscall of all time. we could spend weeks discussing this alone. it is extremely powerful, versatile, and widely used. not to mention, it's one of the (somewhat) rare six argument syscalls. some potential points of discussion:
> the addr argument, and its use without flags, with MAP_FIXED, and with MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE
> file-backed vs anonymous mappings
> the concept of pages, page sizing, and alignment
> guard pages and PROT_NONE
> the actual meaning of SIGSEGV, and how there's more to segfaults than simply process crashes
> core dumps and stack traces
> other related signals, such as SIGBUS
> MAP_GROWSDOWN and the stack
> the use of mmap (as opposed to brk) for allocation via the *alloc family
> manual memory management vs an allocation scheme
