Just set up a few chatbots for free to make money for you bro. It's easy.

Just leave your money on an index fund
If you had put $100 toward your next RAM upgrade in an index fund around the time AM4 came out, you'd have enough to buy two sticks of DDR5 three times over even at a 10x markup

oh, and storage, ssd AND hdd

GPUs actually vanished mainly because of the RAM issues. So it's just anything that takes RAM is your answer. Robovacs, smart toasters, etc etc

>MBP
Tough choice, both are legit.
>more portable, on-the-go computing? 14"
>churn performance to the most? 16"
If the question is MBA, very easy. Always go 13" (15" is kinda wasteful)
My personal rule is:
-only own one laptop: 14" with decent specs
-own two laptops: 12/13" detachable/ultrabook with bare minimum specs & 16" maxed out workstation (assume won't own a desktop)

>>107850705
Heavy, not really. MBP problem is a bit more of dimension than weight. 16" MBP isn't much heavier than 14" MBP. Most compact bags could fit 14" MBP easily while 16" might not.
If you can carry around typical big gaming laptop around. 16" MBP is fucking nothing. Some brands offer bags/backpacks specifically designed for MacBook in mind, choices are plenty.

the 16 inch macbook pro is smaller and lighter than the pre 2016 15 inch macbook pro. the thick bezels make the 15 inch mbp bigger than the the 16 one

I had the unfortunate experience of seriously giving the .NET 9 or whatever NativeAOT features a try like ~8 months ago and it was just genuinely unusable. Soooooo much does not yet work.
Graal, on the other hand, generally supports most use cases; even heavy reflection and stuff, you can just let it profil firt and do most of it for you and/or just pre-define some rules like you would if you were to use an obfuscator like Proguard, ZKM, etc.

>microsoft has been suddenly fighting against "illegal" activation methods
microsoft has been retiring many outdated components and one of those components was exploited by outdated offline activation method.
did microsoft retire it only because of activation exploit? nobody knows but most likely not.

>>107850957
>send the ID of the computer plus its current installed edition to MS's activation servers and gets them to add the ID to the activation server no strings attached
Yeah but I'm talking about a fresh laptop here, no prior activations. So isn't it quite obvious that microsoft could just start blocking new registrations on their servers? Up until this point I've assumed they simply don't care and wouldn't want to cause angry hordes by blocking it.

>>107850988
It doesn't matter if the laptop is fresh or not, it'll activate fine all the same.

>>107851013
It won't if microsoft changes their servers and decides to block unauthorized hardware ID activations.

You're either retarded, or retarded.
either way you're retarded.

Didn't your mom tell you to not read in the dark? That's essentially what you are doing with dark theme. If you are going to unnaturally stare at screens from close distance, at least attempt to do it in an environment with natural level of lighting.

Some study found said that the lack of natural light exposure is one of the potential causes nearsightedness and eye diseases, could be related to the brightness (sun light is very bright), but also the lack of infrared frequencies in led lighting.

Likely the most optimal setup health-wise would be using a 65" tv at a distance, with light theme, in a well-lit room and add some infrared heat lamps to balance out the blue light.

Helix, but I am pretty sure any text editor with syntax highlighting is capable of a similar theme. But it has to be made custom for this approach. This is due to the typical light themes that have colored text adjusts the contrast of the colors for white. When highlighting the background you need to use very light colors to contrast well with black instead. I think It works exceptionally well for LaTeX since I just want to highlight the structure of the markup. Here is another similar theme that I use for Zig.

>>107850223
There is nothing natural about the light from light themes.
It's way too blue and there absolutely bit enough orange and red for your eyes to bit strain unnecessarily.
If you use f.lux or similar and force it to night time constantly then it might be better than dark theme for your eyes.

>>107837209
It's the opposite you tard, brown eyes are better at handling bright light than light eyes

>>107850776
Well, I would argue it's slightly more natural compared to having your retinas lasered with the same blue light when they are adapted to a brightness level of a dark cave, which makes them operate on heightened sensitivity.

Using old and insecure proprietary firmware baked into your hardware components doesn't make you any more free than loading newer firmware into those components through your OS.

Its just a stallman cope so he can pretend the software doesn't exist so he doesn't look like a giant hypocrite when using any computer (which he is).

the current world we live in is the result of an AI running out of real input data: it's a simulation where we are made to endure various hardships so that the AI can learn from how we solved our problems.

The ancient Gnostics said that the demiurge is powerful but demented. That's because the demiurge is just ChatGPT on crack.

>>107850254
You can clearly see it started to go downhill when the moderation became compoundingly more retarded. AI just sped it up a little.

Consider the possibility that every programming question that someone else could reasonably have an answer for has already been asked. I mean that's over 50 million questions there. You don't need to ask a new question when it's already the top google result.

>>107850259
definitely just a shitpost, but okay, shizo.

AI code is a mile away from working close to the bare components so will always run like shit. Over time layers of shit will compound and nothing will run.

What I meant is that lot of people have some crazy shit to say that they keep to themselves or their close friends, but then go to a chatbot and if they think it’s a smart conscious entity they will tell them the crazy shit and because LLMs operate on roleplaying (system prompt tells them to be helpful assistants) they will give in to their crazy shit, while normal people think LLMs are just dumbass clankers that can write well and sometimes make shit up

The people who get roped into it dont have crazy ideas involving racism or other wrongthink and the sycophancy makes them trust the chatbot more.
