Windows 11 could never have a fan base like XP.

SP1 made XP usable, SP2 killed raw sockets and enshittified half open connections (which can be fixed with 3rd party patches but still). SP3 didn't feel like much of a change at all even though the changelog was massive.

It took a few years for 2000 to actually get proper 3d hardware acceleration support, which back then was about the only reason for XP's existence as far as I'm concerned.

Over time, though, 2000 support diminished and XP became the absolute minimal requirement.

Today I daily drive POSReady 2009 and I've never been happier.

someone's just connected to our password protected wifi, I've already changed the password but should I be concerned?
1 reply omitted. Click here to view.
>>
>>107697095
If you already changed the password you should be fine. Make sure you chose a long password with numbers, symbols, upper and lower case letters so no one can brute force it. If you want extra protection you can also configure the router to work with a whitelist system. But that can end up being kind of annoying because every time you want to connect from a new device you need to add the device mac address in the router settings.

Why is this fucking allowed?

Everyone around the office fucking loves the sysadmin and I've even seen people leaving chocolates and presents in his private office (yes, the motherfucker gets a fucking private office) while my developer colleagues and I are forced into open seating like pic related with help desk sitting in front of us and project managers behind to keep an eye on us, also we're viewed as "those weird programmers".

Same
In my experience, sysadmin is one of the most thankless jobs in tech.
Even when the fuckup is not your fault, everyone points fingers and think you're an idiot.
Even when the fuckup is actually fault of some idiot programmer, the entire office thinks it's your fault, and even when you end up fixing the jeet programmer's fuckup yourself nonetheless the worst they get is a slap in the wrist.
If OP's company is like he says and treat their sysadmins with some dignity they're an outlier

A mistake on any app can affect thousand if not millions of users that will trust less the entire company when happen and shit like that should be caught on DEV/QA/UAT, if it arrives on Prod there is a serious problem with your development process.
A single office without internet (its not an excuse, should have redundant services) only affect the productivity of 100~500 employees at much, depending on the type of failure.

Don't know about the web part but training an image classifier is straightforward. The only real work is assembling your dataset of target faces, and depending on what you use, faces of people who are not the target, then messing with hyperparams before picking the best checkpoint that works for you. Plenty of guides and YouTube tutorials.

yeah I don't read other people's code, generally I think most freetards have horrible taste in coding styles. their naming conventions suck, they use weird spacing and indentation, and they do everything based on what's easier for their version control system to diff and patch. they avoid putting comments in their code too.

Why do some people who oppose big tech and talk about peacefully resisting them at the same time support a large powerful Government? and in this case, its monetary monopoly.

I've seen European socialist on Mastodon say things I strongly agree with about big tech tethering people to centralized cloud software and subscription fees, and how it sucks that the entire world is interdependent on big techs cloud services. But then they follow up with how only the Government can save us from big tech. They act like Government is just another word for the people or community. They have no interest in alternative economies and opting out of the system. This naitivity needs to be brought to light. No need to intimidate anyone, just ask why Govenment is asigned the role of a savior.

Also the reverse argument applies to libertarians and agorist who hate Government but falsely believe big tech and patent monopolies are a free market. Like the morons at Reason.org
>>
>>107699153
I meant reason.com

They wrote a disgusting article about how big tech was a victory of the free market. Ignoring big tech's patent and ip hoarding and government lobbyism.

With tech jobs becoming ever more scarce as AI keeps replacing human workers, is trades the better option now?

I almost fell for the meme, but was too lazy and ended up with a 150k programming remote work job.
