Not really comparable, because Google can, and has tried as best they can with the Web Sandbox shit, to use their position to force the adoption of standards that benefit them almost entirely. The only reason they didn’t push ahead with getting rid of Cookies from Chrome and forcing people to use their shit FLOC system is because they were being investigated by the EU and USA at the same time for monopolistic practices, and forcing every other company to use your shitty standard for advertising is an obvious red flag.

gentoo is about control. you can control much more on gentoo than you can on arch. if you've never felt restricted on arch, or if you've never felt like arch was bloated, or if you've never felt you needed to understand more about your computer, then stay on arch. otherwise you're very welcome to give it a try, gentoo is very cunny friendly

>>106519641
>Sure, check out the Lenovo Legion series
do you have a specific recommendation to save me some time? I can look around but I have to find something in the same price range/form factor. I suspect I can't do better for the price.

Lenovo laptops do not impress me much more than Asus, except for the ThinkPad line, which is only marginally better, but significantly worse than the IBM machines they bought the brand from.

The only models I can find are either lower powered and bigger but in a similar price range, or more expensive and bigger, nothing 14".

I would probably settle for a larger machine but like I said I enjoy the versatility of this one quite a bit.

>>106519670
>>106519641
Thanks for the recommendation, but I can't find anything similar or comparable.

>Lenovo Legion Pro 7: This model features a powerful AMD Ryzen 9 7945HX processor and a high-end NVIDIA RTX 5080. It has a similar OLED display but may exceed your budget slightly.
Lenovo Legion 5 Pro: This is a more budget-friendly option with a solid AMD Ryzen 7 processor and RTX 4060 graphics. However, it lacks the OLED display and may not match the performance of your current laptop.
Lenovo Legion 5i: Similar to the Legion 5 but with an Intel processor. It also features an IPS display, which is good but not as vibrant as OLED.

It seems the Lenovo offerings are all 16" (or, worse, 15.6") shitters with either higher specs and a higher price, or lower specs and a similar price.

>You shouldn't separate bootloaders, there is no advantage and no point in doing so.
not sure what you mean by bootloader, you can have any number of bootloaders.
But getting back to the efi spec, it's certainly possible and even reasonable to have two disks with efi system partitions so that windows can have its own on its disk. Yes, you aren't supposed to do that because big bad efi brother said only one per system... but you can still do it and I would recommend it if you want to avoid mucking with windows boot since there's a good chance it will fuck with your one and only efi system partition on updates.

So how do cybersecurity people know when a website has a SQL injection, path traversal, command injection or XSS vulnerability? You can't see the server code so do they just try random shit on random websites until they succeed then?

>>106519496
Yeah, but that causes a lot of unnecessary fragmentation and headaches. What if I want to edit a video and then save it, and then it gets saved to the file store of the video editor application, and then I want to play it with a video player - tthe video player can't access the file store of the video editor. going to end up with sandboxing either way.

>>106519553
you'd have a dedicated file manager application which gets accessed using the default file manager association, and the file gets saved to the file manager's store. It's entirely possible that certain applications can have deeper access to OS primitives than others.
An Apple-style solution is to provide multimedia folders which applications can just access. Nothing saved in those is considered important.

>>106519577
>you'd have a dedicated file manager application which gets accessed using the default file manager association, and the file gets saved to the file manager's store
Yes, and that's essentially sandboxing, which was my point. You're going to end up with sandboxing either way.

>>106519586
I am too drunk to have this conversation.
The idea is that you shouldn't need to describe every application as running in an equivalent of Virtual Box
If every basic ass application (not a file manager) has access to the same primitives which prevents applications from talking to each other without the user getting involved, I think it is already secure enough.

>>106519605
>The idea is that you shouldn't need to describe every application as running in an equivalent of Virtual Box
I agree. And so does everyone else. Because that's literally not even the current model.

Hmm, it does have a bitmap data type. Assuming an n-pixel monochrome bitmap actually uses 2^n bytes of memory (plus O(1) overhead) maybe I can implement an alternate data stack encoded in bitmap pixels where objects actually use the FUCKING CORRECT AMOUNT OF MEMORY

With Machine Learning, absolutely not.
It's fundamentally wrong, and as contradictory to how humans learn as you can get.
The brute-force method of an AGI kernel will be just 1:1 cloning the smallest brain we can and scaling ASIC hardware to map larger and larger brains.
The future-thinking AGI kernel will made be the one who looks at Nikolai Bernstein's research and realizes humans inherently encode and decode Fourier Transforms.

interpals is good and has many people willing to do language exchange, i strongly recommend it if you want to try to learn a language. i started but gave up because i realized it requires more work and commitment than i was truly willing to dedicate to it, and because everyone already knows english. truthfully i feel it woul take many hundreds of hours of varied study and practice to learn any language enough to be worthwhile in any capacity whatsoever which is just not time i am willing to dedicate. even with magic ai and all that. i would love to be a more cultured individual, hope you succeed op it is a worthwhile endeavor!

i feel like most of your complaints are about Windows rather than C itself
with WSL idk how much of a point there is in dealing with windows stuff anymore
maybe there's stuff I'm missing, I guess I haven't tried using opengl with C through WSL or things like that yet, but I haven't noticed any problems so far for normal stuff with WSL

>>106519384
>i feel like most of your complaints are about Windows rather than C itself
Well, we are talking about C's tooling rn, which doesn't exist "officially", it's just whatever your vendor has.
So the experience can and will vary depending on what system you are using.
Which is just another reason why development with C can be so painful:
Wrote a CMakeLists.txt that specifies compile flags for MSVC (maybe specifying the runtime library linkage or omit CRT)?
Well, they ain't gonna work on a platform where your choices are GCC or Clang and you have to cross compile, so better edit that file.

In other languages, you usually never worry about touching such things, and even then, the options are cross platform (mostly, in Rust you can specify platform specific options in a config file, for things like custom linkers).

Or just ignore warnings from your C/C++ compiler about the runtime library having a second copy.

>>106519323
>I would rather do real work
One reason software sucks is because you don't think streamlining the build process by properly managing dependencies YOU CHOOSE to use in your project is important or is somehow below you. You think you can just package manage everything away but that's not how you build software that actually lasts. It's how you make a maintenance nightmare for everyone else to deal with. Meanwhile in the same breath that you complain about all of the dependencies you need for your dependencies to work, you somehow ironically fail to see you are also directly contributing to the problem because "cleaning up my shit for the next person? that's not real work, they can go hunt down dependencies". Fuck you, you get everything you deserve.

>"Let me write a 1000 line CMakeLists.txt file to build all my local dependencies. This is meaningful work."
My entire point is you don't need to do that either. Build systems are a mistake. Incremental builds are a mistake. Having a million individual build objects for the linker to resolve is slower than just compiling the entire thing anyway. People are over-complicating solutions to problems that shouldn't even exist in the first place, especially not now.

>"Time to copy and paste my updated dependencies over to my deps folder. Commit message for all files: Updated version to vX.Y.Z"
Yes, faggot. Don't like it, don't include them. You include them, you do the work so the end user doesn't have to tardwrangle your lazy fucking software. If you want your shit to build in 50 years, the only way is to include all of the necessary source code to compile it to begin with. Obviously, it isn't always possible to include everything, especially if you depend on some behemoth, but at least fucking try when you know you can.
