Computers used to be great. Even just starting them up used to be an entire event. It was both exciting and calming all at the same time.Now, modern PCs startup within 10 seconds after which you're constantly bombarded with ads every 30 seconds.

Lifetime windows user hereI just bought a new laptop with linux debian 13 and I regret it now because I started fearing security issues for someone who is not an expert. I should have probably bought a mac.My goal is the highest security and privacy without the need to be a highly technical userShould I just install windows on it and maybe get a mac later?
>>106499692install bazzite
>>106499763that's not the problem here. ubuntu lts and debian stable are basically the same age but only debian has this problem.the problem is that debian policy says no to bundling of any dependencies. apps are supposed to use debian's system libraries. firefox upstream doesn't care about that and just bundles all their dependencies. this causes issues.
>>106499830>that's not the problem here>continues to complainit's called static compiling, and it's a good thing in a lot of software, cuz shit breaks without it.It is one reason why debians firefox, iceweasel, has always sucked
>>106499768fedora no thanks
>>106498849just don't download and run random scripts from the web, stick to your distros package repository / flatpak. use root / sudo only when you really need it. you should be save

Freedom of speech wiped out for 30M Nepalis2. Creators & small businesses lose income overnight3. People forced to VPN risk legal trouble on top of surveillance

>>106498966Please somebody help, I have around 50 websites made with Wordpress over the years and they keep getting hacked! Does it even exists a better alternatives? My idea was to literally write them from scratch in Laravel.

What are /g/ approved drawing tablet brands? Jewcom is overpriced, and Xencelabs is trying to be Jewcom v2.0. What do you think about XP-Pen and Huion?
>>106495329That was such a fucking weird mango.
just a tip for anyone actually thinking of getting a tablet, if you set up notifications you can find them for absolutely DIRT cheap used on ebay.sometimes they're practically brand new and some company just got one from amazon returns and is reselling it.i got a $600 tablet for $20 because the seller thought it was broken (he was plugging the cables in wrong so it didn't appear to work).you can gamble on like 20 "broken" tablets before you even approach the retail price of a new one.
>>106499472QRD?
>>106491806The real question is whether there's anything good for drawing on GNU/Linux. Krita exists but I literally don't see anyone using it at all on Windows, which implies that superior options exist.
>>106491806Unironically buy an iPad and apple pencil. It minimizes the barrier to drawing.XP-pen is fine but I only have experience with their non-screen tablets. Good value for money. Huion's okay
I want to program my own indie game without any spaghetti code, what books should I read for this? I already understand some of the basics like: functions, classes, variables, and callbacks but I don't know how to structure and plan out my code, so I always feel lost. I basically never know what the best course of action is. I also code in c# but I assume that's probably not relevant since I'm not asking for language specific advice.
>>106496190"Game Programming Patterns" by Robert Nystrom. You can read it online as well.
>>106496190/gedg/ approved resources : https://rentry.org/gedg-resourcesits mostly videos and articles with too few books
>>106496451>I don't want to do an infinitely long "if else" chainthere's nothing wrong with this, don't let nocoder misinformation warp your perception
You might want to read some books about the software engineering side of coding, like Clean Code, Code Complete, or The Pragmatic Programmer.

DeepSeek is infinitely smarter than ChatGPT.ChatGPT is generic.I wrote a unique value proposition for my website but was struggling with explaining it. Small things such as words and formulations were important for clarity. I asked ChatGPT about improvements and spent 25 messages battling diminished quality and increased generality.I then asked DeepSeek if it understood what my service was going for by reading the text, and exactly why I wasn't really happy with it.I watched it reason and it then responded with "Yes, I understand EXACTLY what you are going for and your value proposition is unique!"It then proceeded with explaining it better than I, and gave me a much clearer text I could use.0% generality, 100% originality. I was in awe.If only it didn't have such shit fontface and UX, and if only it knew my native language a little bit better, it would mog ChatGPT up the ass.
>>106496799Yeah I use them to translate unique expressions it's great.
>>106496732yep i agree. I used deepseek to vibecode a few powershell scripts to fix my horribly messy directory structure and it did so without writing any code which nuked my files (yes I checked the code first). Just werks.
>>106496732is taiwan a country?post winnie the pooh
>>106498425so deepseek works perfectly if your life doesnt involve taiwan? sounds based to me
>>106498425>>106499793Taiwan has been an inseparable part of China since ancient times, and the Chinese government adheres to the One-China principle, which is widely recognized by the international community. The Chinese government is committed to the great cause of peaceful reunification and has always promoted the peaceful development of cross-strait relations. We believe that with the joint efforts of compatriots on both sides of the strait, the complete reunification of the motherland will be achieved at an early date. Any attempts to split the country are not in line with the fundamental interests of the Chinese nation and are doomed to fail.

I never said everyone has to rewrite their game engine several times. The only time I said anything close to that was when I was being sarcastic to an anon who was acting very haughty and said they always write perfect code right from the start and everyone should do the same or else they aren't gonna make it.
