>>107666637>>107666200Safest to get intel, but you'll pay more. Save your money if that's mandatory. Otherwise, a Galaxy Tab Ultra S10 or 11 is better than a snapdragon surface.
how to solve this?
>>107666691Winlator does not work on anything Samsung after the S9 because they switched off snapdragon.
what is the relationship between CPU and GPU for gaming? i have a i9-14900kf that is causing problems with bsod when gaming, i have no issues when i reduce max cores to 4 cores for some games or 8 cores for other games. will reducing processing ability cause textures and stuff to take longer to load which would cause me to drop frames? or does the GPU handle all that?

>made full offline backups of all my video games and software>canceled Spotify and went back to downloading music>forgot I already have ~6000 songs that are completely unsorted, some have low bitrates, ripped from Youtube, downloaded from Kazaa, screen recorded, etc. and need to be renamed, metadata'd, and in some cases redownloaded in higher qualityFuck. How was your detransition back to the old ways?

>>107663921Is xlibre the future or no? I don't code and I only switched to Linux recently off w10
>>107667011If you like x11 with update's it's goodHowever eventually most mainstream DEs and possibly toolkits like gtk and qt will end support for x11 and you will have to use waylandI use it personally, the latest release has brought some good updates for what it's worth. However it's embroiled in a lot of controversy relating to political culture war bullshit that I don't care about which might turn you away from it.
take the low tech pill>only use landlines or dumb phone>only access internet through a desktop pc >use radios>use a dedicated camera >games and media offline .
>>107664697>you use a smartphone, don't you?No? This is /g/
the modern internet is unusable on dialup. it's so fucking bloated
>>107661463>landlinesIt's all VoIP now. Only difference is the location where it becomes digital.
>>107661463>>use radiosI would be interested in using some ham radio BBS or massively multiplayer game.Data radio and cellphone/wifi protocols are quite advanced that a lot can be done on a single channel low bandwidth radio frequency.

Any version of Windows since 1995 has been more polished, production-ready and user-friendly than any Linux distro ever made. That's obvious to anybody who has installed both of them on the same machine.Are Linux users just lying about their distros being a better experience than a Windows installation?
>>107664278>traumatic experiences with W10lol grow up dude
>>107665067>linux doesn't have to be good, only better than windowsthere is nothing better about linux other than "muh botnet"
>>107664353lincels always give the best christmas presentsa hearty free kek every christmas morning
>>107665052>Is that windows is so bad now, it's on par with linuxLol come on. Is that way so many people still use it? because it's so bad that they'd rather pay for it than use the free option? Fuck off.
>>107621970In the end, the point of the OS is to launch applications and handle storage. If you can get the same functionality out of the whole thing, then the OSes are comparable.You don't install Windows or MacOS to fuck around with the settings and menus all day.
>entire OS is containerized virtualizationYikes, sticking to Guix.

What can I do with this christmas present? it doesnt fit up my ass

You're telling me, the entire infrastructure of the Internet that relies on this single service ran by a bunch of pajeets while also already proving that the entire service is not stable and has demonstrated that it can crash at a moment's notice, and NO ONE has decided to make an alternative?
>>107663230I thought indians were blackhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjeHXzWYglg
>>107661599the alternative is a server.
>>107663230Diversity hire. Any non-indian at any FAANG company including whites are diversity hires.
Ofc its curry. They are trying to abstract the hard stuff away from retarded devs.
>>107661599Please understand, we've already fired all the people who could maintain our on prem servers. Now, no matter how much Amazon squeezes our balls by increasing prices and lowering SLAs from 99.99999% to 99.2%, there's simply nothing we can do but to use them even more.

I read somewhere that the OG MX Blues have a really nice tactile leaf that's good for frankkenswitching. Should I bother sourcing some?

Anti-AI tantrumswhats up with these people? whats their problem?never saw this kinda bizare behavior before in my entire life
>>107660366Unironically they have AIDS.AI derangement syndrome.
AI is just a black box that taxpayer money goes into and ends up in jew's pockets. Sam Altman raped his sister by the way
>>107661377Because nobody was using them, only few researchers and few turboautists who loved machine learning. Only after SD released did people start to give a fuck about AI because it became something real, and as far as I know lot of people still hold the same opinions they held in 2022.

Why the fuck did they do this? Just installed nvidia-open and it literally gives me artifacts in almost every game and makes my 3060 spin like crazy. Give me back proprietary nvidia drivers!!!!
>>107660349Why the fuck would you switch models that are still supported on the closed-source driver, to the horribly inferior open-source driver?While simultaneously instructing end-users to switch to an alternate branch of the closed-source driver for older models?Just fucking put end-users on the older architectures onto the older driver by default. Linux can enumerate hardware IDs / device names, I assume - yes? The IDs for old Nvidia shit are known, yes? So fucking use that and make it seamless, rather than leaving people up shit creek after what they think might be an innocuous package update deep-sixing their graphical output because - oops; driver no longer compatible.Arch is retarded.

I use QubesOS with detached boot partition on 2 duplicated USB drives with any data that rests on the SSD/HDDs being encrypted with LUKS2. Whonix gateway is proxied through a VPN qube to hide Tor IPs (can't hide communication patterns) without bridges since bridge IPs can be farmed. Sometimes Tor through I2P outproxy or vice-versa or with different anonymizing network overlays. Clients used for browsing are only opened in on-RAM ephemeral qubes with no access to permanent storage. Attack surface is quite minimum since no extra things added like USB mouse and no PV qubes (aside from sys-usb and sys-net) are used for launching HVM qubes with qemu stub domains unless very necessary and every other qube on the system gets shut down first to keep information leakage minimum. A veracrypt volume with hidden storage on a permanent qube for data storage and plausible deniability.what's your setup like?
>>107666084why not? t. tech-illiterate man of culture
>>107664217imo qubes is a fantastical concept. If you understand what it does, and how that is applicable in the modern world...surprised / not surprised it's not like #3 on distrowatch. You'd need like 64gb of ram for daily usage not to mention funding. >>107666108>unpatched win97>runs in admin mode only apps set to auto run>porn saved with banking info, metadata rewritten to descriptive txt>screen projected onto a high rise>listening on all ports>porn stories involves family & co workers this made my christmas. I'll toast in your name anon
>>107666477>imo qubes is a fantastical conceptit is, even despite its criticizers, one of whom brad spengler himself. he had tried to make a point by saying what qubesos does doesn't count as true security because when something is pwned inside a qube, all other applications in that qube is gone too; which is retarded because not doing that is the whole point of security by compartmentalization. it's true that you can't offload everything to qubes' model of isolation though but nobody claimed you 'should' ignore in-vm security inside domUs. qOS is just a practical way to dramatically enhance security and shrink the TCB on host machine, without having to modify existing code.he rightly pointed out Xen not being a very rigorous kernel in security unlike the ones with heavier formal verification but I dont know any other x86 virtualization kernel as usage ready and supported as Xen so that sounded like a cope as well. especially when his product is nowhere near to Xen for being a mere patchset over Linux, a much bigger general purpose kernel written by a man that says linux is not a security oriented kernel.
>>107666805btw 16 gb is enough for daily driving and 32 gb is enough for everyone
>>107666477>imo qubes is a fantastical concept.checked and agreed. I daily drive it. Gives me amazing powers. Tor, vpn qubes, normal qubes, running experimental programs in their own virtual machine qubes in paralllel to my daily, stable linux setups -- all in one place, is a superpower.
