I can't predict when the internet will waste my time with a technical problem anymore Anonymous 03/01/26(Sun)00:00:24 No.108267821 [Reply]

Just spent half an hour trying to submit a support request for a product and I had to manually retype all of the info 6 times because I had to try deleting my cookies for the site so it would give me its deceptive cookie choices prompt because their hCaptcha just wasn't loading for some reason or the "submit captcha" button just didn't do anything when I clicked it. I had troubleshoot the Captcha and the website via Google like I was dealing with a fucking linux package conflict or something. Something that should have taken 2 minutes of my lifetime took 30 fucking minutes and I still didn't learn what was causing the technical issue. This is why using the internet raises my blood pressure. You have to absorb the technical burden of various first- and third-parties as an individual and at the end of it you learn nothing to help you moving forward. It's just shit. It's worse than dealing with the DMV

>they can't just add age verification into Linux lmao Linux isn't an OS there's no way they could do that there are too many distributions
why don't they just add it to systemd? seems like it wouldn't be that hard.

It is not about the military Anonymous 02/28/26(Sat)07:34:09 No.108261706 [Reply]

Currently unless there is a hidden AI model nobody else has access to, the image/video recognition is far too slow to actually hit the target, and on top of that it misclassifies a lot of images. Regular convolutional neural networks would have better accuracy and speed, and no doubt that the military has a shit ton of training data for that.
This is about surveillance (the first point in Anthropic), because it is the only thing that AI *can* be used for at this stage. Why did the government send in Hegseth? because they want boomer retards to think this is about defending democracy and searching for nuclear weapons again. If they said openly that the first clause is the issue, not even the most philosemitic boomer would defend them.

Wasn't njudea talking about making their own arm-based pc, or something? I would assume they would choose Linux. Fuck microdicks and their shitty spyware.
Btw, I wouldn't be surprised that whatever driver/performance issues people are having (nvidia/amd/intel) is not as much the vendor issues as microdick jeetware issues.
Amd is already doing good on linux, so if both nvidia and intel will also jump the hype train - it will be complete death to windows as a gayming platform.

I’m having a lot of fun using Sway as my first window manager, but there’s so much to configure. Is this how all window managers are? Maybe I’m overthinking it, but getting everything to look and feel right seems like a lot of trial and error. I don’t mind putting in the work that’s part of the appeal, but I’d really appreciate any tips on tools, apps, or workflows you all use to make the setup process easier.

>Is this how all window managers are?
No. They vary in both the amount of things you can configure, and how you can configure them.

For some you modify header files in a C program that you have to recompile, others have built-in GUI configuration tools that cover everything.

I use stock sway on OpenSUSE and didn't feel the need to configure anything beyond the color scheme. The default setup is pretty nice.

right so. in C, types you define go somewhat unusually to the left AND the right of the variable you're defining.
so an array of pointers to integers in C is
int *array[]
not
int []*array
as you might expect. Above in >>108254665, the types were listed as char[65], which is why it seemed to me that clang's formatter there disregarded strict allegiance to C typing rules. further experiments in >>108263588 however, concluded that that wasn't the case, and instead clang just prints out the abstract declarator, followed by the variable name.
the abstract declarator is a piece of C grammar, which can be used to describe a type, such as in function prototypes or in the argument of sizeof etc., without an intervening type name.
and it turns out that that is what clang is using when dumping structs.

It seems more anti intellectual than contrarian

>Systemd is good
systemd offers by far the most configurability and you don't have to write a shell script just to get a program to start at boot, not to mention making it properly give logs and restarting if it crashes. systemd is also unbeatable when it comes to debugging, but you probably wouldn't know since you don't RTFM
>Memory management bad
the majority don't even say this

>Tinker tranny
improving technology through tinkering is never seen as a bad thing, "tinker tranny" is mostly used for those who toil at an insignificant component of the system
