>>107696748I left like about 80% of my purchases on ali were not really worth it. They have insane prices on literal dogshit.
>>107699720>he thinks 5v is negotiated in the connector.Do you see how the connector is soldered to the board? Disregard the autism cube. There isn't any space to add a pd trigger board, let alone use the same cutout. Even moreso using a pd trigger board to negotiate 5V is immensely retarded when it can be done with two resistors. As is, this thing can only charge with something that'll feed it 5V as would happen with a usb-c to usb-A cable ("legacy"), but it can't negotiate 5V out from a usb-c source. Replacing the connector won't solve anything. And this board being an aluminium heatsink it's going to be an absolute bitch to solder to. https://community.silabs.com/s/article/legacy-usb-device-detection-by-type-c?language=en_US
>>107696748it's for buying shit I don't immediately need but I can sort of see a use for in the future. THough I can point to at least four or five things that I've to be far better(or equivalent) than anything comparable on other marketplaces. One of them gets daily use and I'm not sure anything exists like it on amazon/ebay/etc.I wish I could just buy the extended bits for other drivers I own.
>>107700808are you satisfied with it's blowing force and sucking ability?is it enough for clearing dust out of naughty computer parts?
Do any of you bros know a good capped metal pen that takes s-gel refills? All the ones in scamazon take euro style refills and none of the ones I see on ali specify on what kind of refills they use
>you're destroying the environment>ok give us repairable phones and batteries>OY VEY!!!Why are they like this?
>>107701246More like enforce the same replaceable batteries on everybody so no innovation is ever allowed to happen
>>107701080>>you're destroying the environment companies don't say this only zoomers do meanwhile those same zoomers
remember AA batteries? AAA batteries? rechargeable AA batteries?we already had standardized batteries and they took it from us. There is no reason that we can't have standardized lithium ion batteries in all rechargeable consumer electronics. We don't need custom batteries for vape pens.imagine how much easier the logistics for recycling batteries would become.it's the same thing as car parts no longer being standardized.
>>10770216218650s were SO FUCKING CLOSE to being the new standard battery, but they're too big for normiesat least being 3.7v is largely standard, but that's probably just chemistry btfoing the PROTESTANTS trying to make everything proprietary
>>107701938Isn't this good? We can burn the trash for electricity.
Reminder of the following:1. Google will merge ChromeOS and Android to form a FOSS Linux-based desktop OS that will be 100% free to download and use. https://www.androidauthority.com/aluminium-os-android-for-pcs-3619092/2. Windows will be severely affected by this new, totally free competitor and will bleed marketshare.3. All existing Linux desktop environments will be totally outclassed by Google's top secret desktop UI and underlying OS. Even Linux users will give up on shit like Mint and just use Google's desktop for their daily driver OS. 2026 will finally be the year of the Linux desktop, and it will be because Google will do to desktops what they did to phones. You know it's coming. Don't act like this was a surprise.
>>107690228>picCinnamon has its own logo separate from Mint.
>>107701244Focus: Premium devicesWell, so much for that.
>>107690265Sorry i-*Krashes*Sorry I can't*Krash*
>>107690272>Gnome is fine, but it's more for people that prefer a "apple like" UI.>Cinnamon is fine, KDE is better but Cinnamon is fine.I have no clue about XFCE and MATE so I'll assume you are right.
>>107701365>logo separate from Mint.Looks like a mountain. They should have made it look like a stick of Cinnamon
whats better degauss or auto
What is this stuff why does every game demand a different version of it
Because Microsoft has always been retarded. There's nothing more stupid than a large organisation.
games use a lot of c++ code and since they also ship on windows they use visual c++
>>107702006It's annoying but just get this https://www.techpowerup.com/download/visual-c-redistributable-runtime-package-all-in-one/ and be done with it
Every game comes with its own flavour of Directx too
Every single influential streamer and content creator is now anti-AI.Fuck yeah.
>>107701110Reminder that there are more Indians on the internet then whites, japs and spics combined. Also babies of inattentive parents will watch anything colourful and moving, just look at the garbage they watched before AI by looking up elsagate. Babies should not be given electronics.
>>107689052just remember to send this back to linus in <5 years when windows copilot is the name of an optional subscription based fully agentic version of windows that turns 30 min workflows into a 5 second voice line, that everyone regardless of how they feel about privacy pretty much has to use or you'll be wasting endless time
>>107702496>Thinks he is making a pointIf that happens then everyone employed in IT is no longer employed and computers are just funny doodads with jingling keys that do all the thinking for you. At that point nothing matters.
>>107701139>As opposed to drawing furry porn?I think I missed the trillion dollars in investment in furry porn data centers using all PC parts production capacity
>>107691722Blame boomers and jeets, boomers for being too retarded to understand anything, jeets for having a culture that encourages scamming.

>>107701207Ghostty's target platform is macos and it shows. It behaves like a native app, not just a linux app that's been directly ported over.Looking at screenshots of ghostty on linux, it seems the reverse is also true.
>>107696468sauce?
Ah. No place like ~.
>>107702479There's something about the default dwm look that's just comfy.

Has anybody here used elementary os? if so, what is your opinion? I plan to install a new distro and this one seems interesting.
>>107698929>>107698984Krashes, qtslop, made in india
>>107698232>>107698929Interesting information. Thanks anons, I will look forward to another distro then.
>>107698095It looked good back in 2013, now it looks and is outdated.The lead developer trooned out. It seems pointless imho.
>>107698095Probably the best looking DE out of all the others, runs on Wayland now but still feels too barebones.
>>107698095Absutely disgusting slightly better than macos, but eating dogshit would be better than using macos

>>1076897694chan linux ricers don't have jobs or if they do those jobs are nowhere as important as any of the dudes you just listed's jobs
>>107689916Terry is schizo but he's definitely not a retard. Maybe autistic, but not retarded. He had divine intellect.
>>107689916I don't like how you talk about these faggots, faggot. But I have to admit, I lost some respect for Linus (Torvalds) when he said that he doesn't care about privacy in the Linus (TechTips) video.

will gaussian splats replace VR180 video as the gold standard of porn?
>>107693052Where do you pirate VR porn?
The only convincing splats I've seen was the one one Zucc uses for his hyperscape demo on the quest and I don't think that supports animations yet.
