>>107666128Because I don't have any machines old enough for that shit. I don't use e-waste.

>>107669234That's understandable. I wish Intel werent so incompetent with their CPUs.Usually these updates can fix nasty CPU bugs, but you cannot trust whether or not they will introduce new backdoors or other malicious features that vannot be removed from the microcode. That is a tradeoff you'll have to consider.

I use Firefox with everything at default settings and it just werks. People really depend on a pack of scripts to use this site? What are you even doing? We scroll, write shit, and attach pictures. What else do you really need to accomplish those things?

I'm honestly glad all these artists who want to pollute their images with watermarks and other shit are getting BTFO. Not for AI reasons, but they somehow think that sharing things on the Internet means only they get to share and only for headpats for other people. You want to save the nice image they made? Fuck you, here's a giant watermark to ruin it. There are bad actors, but who the fuck cares?
>>107666226Defend themselves from what exactly?>AIOh no, another program is being used to modified their work. Just as if I saved their image and photoshopped it. What a nightmare.>stealingOh no, pajeets are doing pajeet things. Someone stop them. No really, someone stop them and them alone - and not ruin the whole fucking internet.>crediting artistsNobody cares. Here, I'm gonna post an image. Who made? Answer: you do not care.
>>107670445Ok? There are people of different backgrounds that are pro or anti AI, I ain't arguing against that. My point is the manner of speaking in the original twitter pic is made by people who pose as that kind of people. It's the kind of posts that someone from here would make.The problem is they're not subtle enough.

Seriously anyone still use older thinkpad in this day and age?I mean the hardware is obsolete now to do anything meaningful unless you just do simple text editing and very basic web site browsing.
Anyone having issues with the latest mesa driver (1:25.3.1-2) and kernel (6.18.2) on Intel HD Graphics 3000 ?I keep getting these weird glitches when using HWDec on mpv, and even firefox keep crashing.And after the last update moonshine doesn't even work anymore, and I just get blackscreen.

How was your detransition back to the old ways?
>>107668301>>107668312Yes, i see how you're doing it.Don't know the Strawberry player but looks nice.I'm sure you can add genre and year also to be shown in the player's metadata list, but you already have it in the album folders name as it seems.
>>107668390it is like this for any band, genre and artist if you pirate entire discographies, you just use directories, everything is 2 clicks away
>>107668410Folderstructure wise, i have it very similar. The only difference is that i have not only the albums but also compilations demos, singles in the same artist folder lumpsummed without having separate subfolders for albums, singles and such.Since i have the tags filled in, the player can sort them this way.

>>107668312>want to play a different song from the same band>first I need to remember if it was part of a compilation or was a single (or both, but live)Silly. The compilation/live/etc. can be tags, playlists, or just dumb smlinks.
why did the kurobaex guy fuck up the entire app?
>>107658491>Noit did though
Trying Kuroba Ex Beta rn, the captchas work fine and have apt descriotions but the search function for board is basically ctrl+f and not a filter like it used to be, sadge. That needs fixing, and my keyboard has like ⅓rd of a second of lag before it comes up in the search bar.
Honestly he's really based for coming back and working on it. A true hero.
Holy shit it works, it is a Christmas miracle.

Why do all "platforms" make recaps at the end of the year?
>>107669547>Don't give a company information you don't want them to haveoh they’ll take it. whether offered up freely or not.If you’ve so much as stepped foot in a grocery store in the last 5 years they’ve created a profile on you. even if you brought no electronics and left without buying anything. they’ve tagged you with facial recognition and gait analysis. they know what they can advertise to you based on how you made your way through the store. they’ve gathered everything they possibly can and they’ll sell it to anyone who’ll pay.
>>107669710that's why I put a different rock in my shoe every time I walk in
>>107669205It's a really easy feature to implement and have a lot of impact in terms of free advertising. You just show some statistics and say that 'you're a stray ajzz cat who eats slop a lot'. People share it in messengers and some stories in Instagram.
>>107669205People love it when you tell them something about themselves, as long as it's positive or neutral at least. It's why they go to fortune tellers.

>>107668086sorry anon, i simply watched a representative example of an old television to illustrate how much smaller TV sets used to be. one without watermarks or any other bullshit.here, i used ImgOps' tools to find a larger-resolution JPEG from a newspaper that had licensed the image. i hope this helps!
>>107664336We weren't staring at video displays 24/7.Television stations went off air at midnight.Video-on-demand a relatively recent service; with the ease of clicking "next" to keep things playing, at little to no additional charge.Personal computers not a common household fixture until mid/late 90s.Smartphones not commonplace until late 2000s.Menu boards all physical.Auto dashboards all physical.Relatively few computer based jobs, retail POS terminals not screen based.
>>107664336when covid happened, I was mostly confined to my computer screen and because of it I lost my vision to see far. take care of your eyes bros... it was mostly caused by me browsing and gaming with no other lights on but my monitor.
if someone from the 50s woke up in my body, first thing they'd wonder is why there's so much flickery static in their everyday vision.when it's gaming, it's 'make sure to take regular breaks!' but when it's work, you're meant to sit staring at a computer all day.
I've spent a ridiculous amount of time in front of screens since I was a kid.I kept being told I'll ruin my eyesight.I'm 32 now and my vision is still literally perfect.
Arch Linux decided to upgrade the default NVIDIA GPU driver to version 590. This change means that Arch Linux will no longer support NVIDIA GPUs from the Pascal generation and older—this means GeForce GTX 1000 GPUs and older.
>>107666271can you even do gens on windows? I imagine windows users would be fine with integrated, not like they need anything more.
>>107667850Yeah no shit they did, Arch Linux always upgrades to the latest nvidia driver as does every other distro that isn't garbage. The latest nvidia driver is bad enough, being stuck on an old driver is completely fucked.Nvidia cards from Pascal and older generations will be unusuable on Linux until nvk makes them usable, because the 585 driver is dogshit.As is the 590 driver, but that's beside the point. It's still a tiny bit less dogshit.
>>107667850Arch linux didn't do anything wrong. If they kept the older drivers as default, then retards like (You) would just bitch that they don't support the new GPUs instead. You can 't have two default drivers.The problem here is 100% on Nvidia and if you're using a older GPU you can still install the older drivers manually.
>this threadDoes the average Windows user just not install graphics drivers and expect the OS to handle everything for them? First thing I do on a gaymen PC in Windows is prevent Windows from including drivers with updates and install drivers.
>>107667873> Nvidia cards from Pascal and older generations will be unusuable on Linux until nvkNvidia didnt release signed pmu firmware needed for maxwell and pascal, without reclocking they are stuck on lowest frequency so nvk wont be much useful
Hi, I really like the Linux mentality and all Linux offer. I’m switching to Linux for my personal use and I’m very happy for that. But now, i want to switch my association to Linux. I’m a IT technician and I know the war of the data, the GAFAM… We use Windows because the people say: - "it’s more simple" - we use that every days and for personal use - 0 advantage to switch to Linux - what’s the data privacy? It’s not important for us - stop with your mentally of geek - Linux doesn’t work - Linux is the geeks users / IT users - bla-bla-bla and bla-bla-bla…Please help me find arguments to convince them. I know that Linux is a really good solution and works very well, but I can't sell the idea itself. Please excuse my grammar, English is not my native language.
>>107670268Unless your job depends on switching your company to Linux, don't bother. It's going to be a headache and too many things could go wrong. The exception would be for things like server hosting, then Linux is probably objectively better than Windows if you know how to manage it.If it just works, don't be that guy who tries to change stuff and make it difficult for other people.
>>107670268>Help me to explain why Linux is better than WindowsJust tell them to explain why Windows is better than Linux. I have zero reasons to switch from Linux to Windows. Of course I have reasons like it is free as in money/libre, privacy, I trust the FOSS more than proprietary, FOSS is usually compactible and uses standard libre formats that you can export and import between random FOSS software. Linux is basically cheaper, easier, comfy, nicer experience in the long run. I have same experience on my old Android TV box (Ubuntu ARM version), on my old Android phone (postmarketOS), x86 desktop PC, laptops, UMPC and even if I log in to my OpenWRT router, it is mainly the same basic idea to use it.Even as a non-tech-savvy, you have nicer time on Linux that doesn't need group policy, regedit, debloat scripts, cmd, powershell and all the other completely random proprietary shit that you have to learn just to learn something else when your master changes how things work or there is the next proprietary debloat application from the new e-celeb youtuber. Windows also does stupid stuff like forces the update that switches your "no updates" option back on in the group policy, then replaces your old working printer driver with the new broken one and does this in a loop even when you are searching random Windows forums to force enable the old one back. Windows had deleted all user files in the past, every application from calculator to notepad sends everything in real time to Microsoft. Good luck when you think you copied some number and you paste your password or private text into your calculator. Now Microsoft has it.It is also nice to learn everything from LibreOffice to GIMP, only use Anki, Easy Effects, K3b etc. and be in this world where you can be anywhere and you just install these same applications every time for free without learning anything new. Linux is like a home where you can just be.

>you can buy an ARM "computer" running Android that has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth radios built in for less than the cost of a mid-tier meal at a restaurant and it even comes with a remotegranted i know it's probably a laggy piece of shit filled with spyware and frankly i'll be sticking to my thinkcentre, but how have we gotten to this point? i'm sure it probably has SOME hardware specs, maybe four A53 cores/1GB of RAM/8GB of flash. it boggles my mind
>>107670794Computers can fit on a USB stick now. Streaming devices are full fledged computers now. So are routers. So called smart streaming devices are more capable than routers. Anything that's marketed as smart has a computer in it. And you can run Linux if you have some technical ability. Some of them it's easy and others hard
