I have to smash grok code fast 1's head into the wall several times, but the retard eventually gets the job done, and everything it has implemented so far would have been done at least 2x faster if I just learned to do it manually, however I refuse to do this, thank you

How did we get here?
>>106501687During the Y2K scare, they brought a ton of them in to do the grunt work to add extra digits to the year because apparently your microwave going from 99 to 00 was going to make it think it was 1900 and stop working or something ridiculous. They kept them long after it passed, gave them green cards, and they started bringing their villages over.

Linus, Brodie and all other onions redditors are completely in the wrong, as usual.When you have high IQ talented people, like Elon Musk, Drew Devault, or, indeed, Kent Overstreet, who want to move fast, you LET them develop at their own pace. You don't cripple them just to appease low performersThat is the problem with the Linux kernel, everything moves at the speed of the weakest (slowest) chain, and Linus is too dumb to understand that those slowest chains are the problem, not the excellent programmers like Kent Overstreet who are just leagues ahead in terms of IQ.Linus not understanding this is why Linux is still subpar to proprietary on many fronts, despite massive funding and corporate involvement.

California Linux-killer age verification bill back from the dead. It looked like it was dead for the year (sent to suspense file), but it came back and advanced.https://legiscan.com/CA/text/AB1043/2025Summary:- Operating systems must provide a digital age signal, and must provide an update that acquires the age signal in the first place.- "Stores" (including just simple websites) must check this signal.- "Developers" (not stores, but the app developers themselves, somehow) must also check this signal. This part is particularly baffling, but makes sense if you think about it from the retard lawmakers perspective "facebook is an APP, meta needs to check your age before you use it!"- None of this is predicated on any sort of "adults-only" app or content. It's everything.- It specifies no specific standard so you can be sure tech companies will push for some kind of "environment integrity" bullshit that Linux can't provide.So like, somehow the developers of vim need to check your age before you can install it from apt. And if they push hard enough on the "secure" part of it, they could just say "Linux is not secure and can't be trusted to supply a valid signal."
good reminder to get some clean isos of everything
>>106508167What's the end game for all this surveillance? Like genuinely? Literally what part of current day society is so horrible and dangerous to politicians that they need this level of control? There is no massive unrest, all protest peter out with little effect, there are no violent insurrections or revolutions(in the west). What the fuck are all governments suddenly preparing for?
>>106508306Still don't follow. Why would the be getting "hush money" to move into the state that is trying to pass the law they are standing against?They're not standing against it, by the way, is already has buyin from Microsoft and others.
>>106508302Time to start data hoarding then.Make a gentoo distfile mirror and update it until it requires the age signal.Then fully disconnect from the internet. Host your own DNS root servers, have your own private network with everything you care about.Maintain the packages yourself. If you don't know C then learn it. Fix the bugs you care about. Perhaps share your patches with others, maybe on USB drives, maybe by connecting your network to other people's.
>>106508325One interpreation of this particular bill is less insidious. This could just be California saying- red states are requiring ID. This is an invasion of privacy!- so we'll be smart and only require a simple age signal. And we'll make it mandatory on all operating systems so no website can force people to do anything else.- aren't we clever and not dummies like red states.Of course, by doing this, if it goes too far, they end up killing Linux and doing far, far more damage to privacy. So, this could just be retards fucking things up for the rest of us.

Do we have at least one weirdo on this board doing an MS-DOS project for run?
>>106503139Fair but they can't even "debug" as in read the error message if the IDE config breaks and try to resolve it themselves or google it. They'll just helplessly stare at the screen and contact someone for something as basic as missing an include or not having a particular library on the system (or literally of there's any minor detraction from the step-by-step youtube tutorial they are following atm.
>>106503511Fools continue to be foolish when they aren't forced to think for themselves. You're doing them a disservice by fixing their problems for them. Is your own ego that important to such situations that you feel the need to be the one to fix everything?

Is it still worth buying a Nvidia Sheild in 2025? Are they ever going to update this?
>>106507386FWIW any (recent) Fire stick will be at least more performant than any Roku. Even if your parents aren't doing 4k, that overhead will make the rest smoother. That being said, I fucking hate both Fire and Roku and shit, both Apple and Android boxes.
just get a laptop, an HDMI cable, and rechargeable wireless mouse & keyboard
It works the same as the google tv in my bedroom. In fact it probably crashes just as often if not more. The ai sharpening feature is something I use pretty often. I guess overall the shield seems less useful these days.
>>106507386Onn 4k is the least shitty of them and you can still side load apps and launchers
I have 4 of these. Still the best. While rare, Nvidia still gives firmware updates too, amazingly enough. Of course if they fuck with sideloading that would suck, but I don't see it happening.
I want the truth about "refurbished" items
>>106501364was likely dirty after previous owner as got ota firmware update
>>106507842Idk, the prices of refurbished thinkpads (at least with the T480 8th gen processors) are not that far from each other. Refurbs usually go for around 180 - 220 euro here in the EU and the used non-refurbed ones I saw on ebay were going for 150 - 200 euro. Not that big of a difference, really.
>>106501364Depending on the product and company refurbishing it, you risk getting actual shit for premium price.Speaking of that - yeah, if you want the newest, coolest, freshly releases item, you'll have a hard time finding it refurbished.But then, with modern hardware being objectively garbage, you also risk buying new, never used electronics so lol
>>106501364I've purchased over a dozen refurb items from Dell and the quality is pretty consistently good. I've only returned 1 laptop that had a blemish on the screen, and 1 monitor which had an LCD that would fizzle out after about ~30 seconds. The quality control definitely isn't bulletproof as that monitor shouldn't have passed. otherwise, some laptops were a little dirty and had to be cleaned, while others looked like they were brand fucking new.getting the monitor returned was the biggest fucking ordeal I've ever had to deal with in my life, and just goes to show the level of incompetence that can happen in a corporation. I'm too lazy to type it out unless anyone is interested.tl;dr can get really good deals for usually half or more the cost of retail, but it is a gamble.

>>106493379Instead of adding the checks to the loading function, why not make it separated?>first step: check the whole file first so everything is correct/in range/as expected>second step: does the actual load into memory
>>106507731because it wastes cYcLeS bRo!
>>106507938But this way you check it only once, and you can load it multiple times afterwards without any checks, instead of checking it every time you load it.
