I may go away for a few months, but I always return home. There's simply nothing that comes even close to it.
tiling eunuchs faakhead nonsense
>>107669350Fellow dwm adopter here. Still getting used to it. No need for anything else.my “apt” unexpectedly killed most of gnome with a bad package. Went back to twm for a while, eventually found dwm.> tilingNo it does tiling, but also monocle and regukar floating windows, and you can pop out any window to floating individually.Only bug I’ve found is it sometimes crashes with firefox on videos with carefully crafted unicode which dwm tries to put in the title bar.
>>107669411tech geeker timesinkdwm and to a lesser extent all standalone window managers are just a trap for noobs that dont use their computers for anything except tinkering

Do any of the Distros even work well with it or do I just keep it on Windows 11?
>>107669976is the concept of receiving a gift for Christmas foreign to you?
>>107669988we're adults here, we buy our own christmas presents
>>107669988Anon we're on /g/, of course it is for most people here
>>107669988Actually yes. It never ocurred to me that someone would just randomly buy something as expensive as a Laptop for Christmas, without even asking if it's the right one for them.
>>107669995So you've always gotten relatively cheap gifts then?
>>107668726I thought for sure this article would be fake.
>>107668726>works as a civil servantlmao just
>>107670457It really makes you think about surface vs deep tissue. Maybe the deep tissue is way less important.
>>107666152You do think about us.>Americans at 19th-century World's Fairs felt insecure about European judgments of U.S. culture and industry, striving to prove their nation's worth against "European prejudices and attitudes of superiority">in the late 1800s, American elites sent their children to study in Germany and France, believing German universities and French arts represented the pinnacle of intellectual and cultural refinement>early American architects and city planners modeled public buildings and urban designs after Paris, Rome, and London, reflecting a belief that European classicism embodied civic dignity the U.S. lacked>during the Progressive Era, U.S. reformers looked to Bismarck's Germany for inspiration on social insurance, viewing European welfare policies as more humane and advanced>in the 1920s, American expatriate writers like Hemingway and Fitzgerald romanticized Paris as a haven of artistic freedom and sophistication missing in "puritanical" America>post-WWII, American urban planners lamented the "cookie-cutter" suburbia of the U.S. compared to Europe's historic, walkable cities with robust public transit>in the 1970s energy crisis, Americans admired European (especially Dutch and Danish) approaches to cycling infrastructure and fuel efficiency>the lack of universal healthcare in the U.S. has long prompted comparisons to "civilized" European systems, with critics calling America backward for not adopting them>American parents often cite European (e.g., Finnish or German) education models as superior in fostering creativity, equity, and critical thinking
>>107666152>food critics and chefs, from Julia Child onward, have framed French culinary tradition as the gold standard, with America playing catch-up>Europeans' guaranteed paid vacation (4–6 weeks) is routinely contrasted with the U.S.'s zero federally mandated days, fueling envy and reformist rhetoric>gun violence debates frequently invoke Europe's strict regulations and low homicide rates as proof of a more "mature" society>in climate policy, Americans point to Scandinavian leadership in sustainability as evidence of moral and technological superiority>European attitudes toward work-life balance—long lunches, siestas, shorter workweeks—are held up as more humane than America's "hustle culture." >public intellectuals like Tocqueville (though French) set a precedent: Americans internalized the idea that Europe offered cautionary or aspirational mirrors of democracy>Cold War-era cultural diplomacy saw the U.S. anxiously measuring its "high culture" output against Europe's centuries-old institutions like opera and ballet>the U.S. prison system is often condemned by comparing its mass incarceration rates to rehabilitative European models like Norway's>architectural critics lament America's car-centric sprawl while praising European compact, mixed-use urbanism as more sustainable and socially cohesive>parenting debates invoke "French parenting" or "Dutch happiness" as superior philosophies fostering calmer, more independent children>in rail travel, Americans mourn the absence of Europe's fast, affordable, and scenic intercity trains as a sign of infrastructural decline.
How come Russia semiconductor situation sucks? they havent even hit 28nm yet.
>>107668701fuck off china I'm not revealing my trade secrets
>>107667634>they have had a lot of very good mathematiciansnot going to say they didn't have any but it's another illusion/propaganda that Russia loves to spread globally. per capita they are not even average compared to other countries. also a lot of the good engineers and scientists in Russia came from UkrSSR.
>>107668019Godspeed anon
>>107668320>>107669929
>>107670456>also a lot of the good engineers and scientists in Russia came from UkrSSRAnd pilots, and tank crews, and a ton of other shitThat's why they miss USSR so much, for a brief moment russia was something more than a vunxh of alcoholics
Is this the best and least biased representation of what happened at early Microsoft and Apple?

Was it the biggest mistake of nvidia?Nobody bought new cards for many years, and some still use it even now.
>>107664603I used the 1060 6gb for 8 years. It makes me teary-eyed thinking about how glorious that card was.
>>107664623Nah m8, 1070 goes hard even today.
>>107668485I gotta say those boobas are quite shapely
>>107667798The biggest fuck up in GPU history was 3DFX. They refused to really innovate with the Voodoo3 series and as soon as NVIDIA brought out the Riva TNT2, it was over for them. My first card was a Monster 3D 4MB card, still have it in a box haha. Was fucking mind blowing playing GLQuake back in the day on my folks old Pentium 200 system.
>>107664623Ran a 1050Ti until I bought a 3070 for a game released last year which sucked and gave me buyer's remorse
Hello everyone, I have an old desktop PC sitting right there doing nothing. I'm trying to give it a reason to exist and evaluating the idea to install Windows 7 on it.So, can you use Windows 7 in these days? How much do you have to debloat it and uninstall things? And, more important, there's a way to not have it becoming a SECURITY NIGHTMARE?
>>107654472It's even worse when open source devs cite Microsoft's end of support as their excuse for not supporting Windows 7.
>>107669045This is lame as shit. Win32 has done everything you need for many versions now.Recently things dropped it over GetTempPath2(). The only difference between GetTempPath() and GetTempPath2() is if you are running as SYSTEM, aka fucking nobody because that is one level above Admin that normal programs can't run as without hacks. Gotta use the latest API though, can't be seen using OLD shit.
>>107668383tranny's rope too loose
>>107647565Windows hasn't changed much since Vista.
>>107669356Probably not, it's everything around it that's changed, that's why we updoot.
what is the least addictive social media?
>>107667573For you - none, you don't have social life.
>>107667606Imageboards are harder to get addicted to, but once you do, I also think they're way harder to let go of. Once you're browsing boards daily, you feel like you have to be there every day, in case something interesting happens.
>>1076675734chan. I can quit anytime I want
>>107668971And yet you're still here, curious.

>>107670093Usecase for buying new hardware?
>>107670006>and enjoy freedomFreedom of what? To spend hours doing what could be done in minutes on Windows?
I didn't know Parabola was still around, that used to be shilled hard here like 10 years ago or whatever. I don't use /g/'s flavor of the month distros. Fedora Plasma is my comfy place.
>>107670006I'm waiting for hyperbola to release their BSD, it seems promising
>>107670069You could use NixOS without blobs and nonfree software by assigning variables related to that.
>tim apple gives you $1,000.000 to make a distro that ACTUALLY just works and can at least attempt to match macOSwhat do?
>>107659047get a million blowjobs from your mom

>>107659047elementary OS exists and seem to be the only one that has actual HIG and actual coherent designall the other DEs are made by people that have no clue and just do random shit
>>107659047Easy: make my distro support Mac hardware exclusively.
>>107659047>match macOSDon't need that, we have ai now.
I don't get it. Just let me click to run the installer. Fucking hippies
>>107667750this is because the linux foundation never bothered to make their own sanctioned distro with the blessing of linus torvalds.Notice how the BSDs don't have this issue?That is cause these distros aren't linux as an OS but seperate OSes all doing their own clown shoe thing that just so happen to have the linux kernel.The only saving grace to this hell hole will be steamOS since valve has pretty much already perfected package distribution unlike the zoo of most distros.Theres a reason linux games don't release as snap,flatpaks or debs.. it's cause steam has already solved tthe issue and those are imperfect solutions. Hell even libre applications that aren't games are on steam like krita and blender.At some point all linux apps will be steam apps. All because the macfag incharge of the linux foundation was too busy sucking corporate cock instead of helping fix linux.
>>107651731such a RETARDED idea that it's still in use to this day and is the only way to install software in 2025 without signing in to some kind of (((account)))>>107653305>Just bundle 10GB of dependencies with your app, bro!>>107656623Yeah, except when it doesn't work (which is most of the time) you get some retarded C/C++ compiler error because someone put -Werror into the build flags and then you have to go edit it.>>107665878unix and C are tightly interconnected because the inventor of Unix also invented C in order to write Unix.>>107655587Works until you need to set file associations or other things in the registry. To be fair about 60% of apps can be made portable (on Windows. not on Linux though lmao)>>107661098>Want to install a program>Linux tranny comes out of the woodwork and tells you to do unpaid repo janny work FOR FREElmao>>107656526Comment too long.

>>107668418I only updated my own copy of it so that it shows the instructions at the bottom (and removes the now useless "use the slider" and "then click next" parts of it so that it takes less space)
I enjoy KurobaEX. I don't have captcha because I have a 4chan Premium account.

well it works

it just makes sense
>>107667777Matlab and Fortran both use 1 based indexing, and they're rather popular. It's the logical way to do it, for math and science in particular. 0 based is an aberration and only existing due to implementation details.
>>107669460Yes, in your silly little language.
>>107667859>love it so muchYou are not allowed to love a language until you've used it. Odin is actually noticeably slower than C. It's roughly like Golang, when it comes to speed. If you are OK with this, why not just use Golang?
>>107668912I like javascript but the runtimes are hot garbage. node is slow for what it asks for but bun has memory leaks. quickjs has no ecosystem.
There is LuaJIT and also there is a language that looks a bit like Haskell and compiles to Lua. It's called MoonScript. I recommend checking it out if you don't like Lua's syntax
>employ Chinese people>they steal your tech and join your Chinese competitors
>>107669638They can’t, China is always at least month behind US at almost every technology. However they have massive manufacturing base that mogs the rest of the world. US can only do a single thing, and that is invest all of its money into RnD. So US spying or even both parties sharing all technology would just benefit China because they could build all the tech faster and cheaper.
>>107670339What good is RnD when you don't have to means to (mass) produce?
>>107670332Stock price is not revenue. Insisting that it is is like insisting that a landlord that owns a 1m house is making 1m a year renting it out.At least 20 years of profit and growth is priced into that 4t valuation. It's more like 50 years in the case of Nvidia right now
>>107670405It’s not. US fell for the RnD meme. Too busy researching fiction instead of just building nuclear power plants or making solar panels more durable like China. Just taking what already works and making it better.
>>107669906>>107669913God fucking damnit. I have jew fatigue
why did the kurobaex guy fuck up the entire app?
>>107665930no. the last one who worked on the app was the poster from the link.
>>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.
