>>107617200>>107617326It's more like>install linux>everything takes 3-8 additional steps to achieve the same thing>some basic stuff that just works on windows, requires major tinkering in linuxI have a 3 monitor setup and I can game and have stuff going on in the other screens with 0 performance issues unless I'm trying to game and play a 4k movie at the same time.On Linux the second I play games on 1 screen with a video playing in the other, the performance tanks hard.Got told that I should get a dedicated card just for my other monitors to "take stress away from the main card if I wanna run this setup" which is absolutely, brain dead retarded.I use a debloated Windows11 and it's the best of both worlds. Things are fast, no telemetry and shit like that, and I don't have to waste all my freetime wondering why I lost sound all of a sudden.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>107617338Windows 11 is for faggots.I'll stick with IoT LTSC 2021.
>>107619133This is a you problem. Literally just tried to play a video on one monitor and a game on the other and it was fine. Granted it was only 24 FPS 4k AV1 video, but I really cannot be arsed trying to find a 60 FPS one.

how do i translate my occasional fey moods into something more useful than spending several hours shaving down a piece of plastic that annoyed me
if i ever start a company i will institute a policy that if you're ever taken by a pang of inspiration you have a day to explain it and if it's sufficiently crazed you get a paid week of normal work hours and all company assets that aren't already consumed to do whatever the fuck you want. that shit isn't screwed in or nailed down? it's yours. just make it work nigga. i dont even know what 'it' is. but it's definitely gonna be something cool or maybe even USEFUL if you're getting this bent out of shapte about it
>>107619294starting a cultonly rules are>if it works don't fuck with it>if it doesn't work you are morally obligated to fuck with it once and only once (or for one meaningful session)>once you've fucked with it, if it continues to not work you are morally obligated to find someone more competent who you believe, in good faith, can fuck with it and make it work (even if they don't, your moral responsibility ends at finding that contact)>if it doesnt work even then, whatever, you tried>if it starts to work after your fucking with it or finding a contact to fuck with it, stop>if your fucking with it was unsuccessful, including finding a contact that might be successful, you are not to fuck with it any more, you are actively barred from fucking with it>if you fuck with something and break it, it's fine, but if you fuck with it after that and break the same thing a second time even if in an unrelated way you are now The Enemy
Do you use it?
>>107611813>Why is the software store down?I use KDE which comes with Discover and it opens just fine and I can see programs and even update my system through it successfully. I have enabled Flatpaks though so maybe it can still be down and all I'm seeing are Flatpak offerings.>>107614843>remove discover despite having it in the distro and telling users not to use itI never heard that, the one they talked about removing was YAST which is its own window in the settings. Are you confusing the two or is there talk about removing Discover?
I refuse to use this because of Rancher being such irredeemable garbage.

>>107618742Also: I found a previous employer's equipment (Dell G10 I think) to be pretty underwhelming with a 3060 laptop GPU, but the model with a 4070 I made them send me instead was mostly OK so that's how I've been evaluating my options so far. Last thing, has the used laptop market already adjusted (gouged) for RAM fuckery?
>>107594789Bought an X13 Gen 2 i5 11th gen and it won't update and install some drivers for some reason T-T it got super hot when I tried to and the battery was draining really fast but that got fixed with the heating issue randomly though it still drains like a percent every minute or less. Is that normal? should I try return it if I can't get it fixed? It said it had almost a 100% battery health which was a bit weird but it looked like it had no wear at all anywhere. pls halp ;-;
>>107614284>Detroit: Become HumanYou'll need a dGpu (or eGpu if you want to deal with it) for that. You might want to reconsider if it's actually worth getting a laptop with such a beefy card of just getting a cheap laptop alongside a cheap desktop. You would probably have to go for something like a p53 with a quadro rtx 3000 or better to be able to play it at a stable 60fps on 1080p low. And you can forget about such frames on 1440p.If you do decide to go for it, consider the following thinkpads: P53, P73, P15/P17/T15P gen 1/2 (or even newer). Dell precision and HP zbook are also options. Or just get a gaming laptop, I have no clue what to look for there though.
>>107616669>Try to get one with the touchscreen. Since the touchscreen models have the best screens as far as nit/resolution/color is concerned.Wouldn't that kind of go against his goal of having a laptop whose battery will last as long as possible? It's generally recommended to get the lpips (low power) innolux panel instead for both battery life and decent nit/colours.>You want the real ethernet port as well because it makes it much easier to debug shit and install an OS. True, but usb c to ethernet adaptors exist for cheap.>You also want the Intel wifi chip instead of the other kind I can't remember the vendor of which has worse support on POSIX OSs.It was either realtek or mediatek or both. Intels AX210 is worth getting (for $10-15) to replace them with.
>>107616888>FreeBSD>>107616839>>107616747>>107616669>>107616617Thanks for taking the time to write up a detailed response - Was definitely caught off guard with what they did with the ethernet ports.Will be ideally dualbooting windows + some distro or just trying to emulate some visual novels on wine, doing some coding on the side and not so much heavy gaming so I'll go with your suggestion and get a T14 gen 1 AMD that has base 16 gbs of ram.

will intel save us or will they chase AI like all the other retards
every game worth playing was released prior to 2004you don't need a $48,000 dollar gpu to play them
what happened to amdthey used to compete with nvidia years ago, now they are completely irrelevant and forgotten and people who want an alternative to nvidia would rather believe in Intel entering the gpu market or chinks making competitive gpus out of nowhere
>>107618580>the Philippines used to make GPUs?The image is a CPU. There was a time where CPUs came on a board and the board slotted into the motherboard:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slot_1https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slot_AAs for the location, the chips aren't fabbed there. Instead that it is where the silicon was shipped to be and are assembled (put on the card or now in a package) and tested. For many years Intel did this in places like Costa Rica and Malaysia.
>>107618811NVIDIA got too big because of they succeed creating a bubble (Bitcoin and AI)AMD should try to invest in other sectors like NVIDIA did.
>>107618153Looking at their tech I genuinely don't think they CAN chase AI. They're behind AMD by a long shot on that who's behind Nvidia. They'd have to go full force in and honestly it'd just be smarter for them to use what they have right now, and improve it to carve a larger piece of the PC market out.

I work at a hospital there are so many items that cost like 15k that do most simplest tasks. For example this pill counter which uses computer vision of some sort to count pills costs literally 2k to 10k.Can any anons tell me how they're getting away with such outsourcing price gouging
>>107618814Because setting up whatever conditions they require, and paying for their certification process, all costs money.
>>107616229>>107616208>>107616147basically same reason texas instruments is still relevant today. grandfathered in through school system and patents.
>>107616373>>107616179>tfw NEET europoor>still have full healthcare
>>107616147I can actually answer this.Worked in a hospital years ago, one day my manager has this catalogue on her desk. I was working IT but kept getting dragged into odd jobs because it was A&E (ER for burgers), the department was in a permanent state of chaos and the NHS is a joke.ANYWAYOn this day she needed to order some stuff and I was helping with the order, but the prices for even incredibly basic stuff was insane. Like £75 for a fucking light bulb, a standard light bulb, nothing special. I was shocked and asked her why the hell we pay those prices, why can't we just go to the shop and buy one for like £2 AND we don't have to wait for delivery. She explained>NHS has a government appointed contract with this company to provide goods, so if we want to buy anything using hospital funds, it has to be done through this company. We don't have a choiceSo the answer is basically corruption.
>>107616147Option 1: Pay a filthy jeet $12 an hour to hand-count 10k pills. Good luck getting accurate numbers even once.Option 2: Spend 3k on an accurate machine that doesn't get sick and doesn't spill curry goat onto the pills.
