What is your reason for using it?

>>1595 i mostly started using it out of curiosity. the laptop i have it installed on is really only used for college and extra-curricular studies so i thought why not. there is also the privacy aspect, which is always nice. is Qubes a bit more than my threat model needs? perhaps for now. but that may change in the future. honestly it functions quite well for my usecase, and the focus on compartmentalization strokes my autism a certain kind of way.

Ok I tried emerge -pvu @installed and turns out I could update 200 pkg, including qt >Conflict: 23 blocks (all satisfied) But you should update your world set, not @installed anyway.

all the qt packages are blocking each other.

maybe its just because PHP was my first language so its native to me but all the arguments people make against PHP seem abstracted from the everyday reality of using it. kinda like when 4channoids cry about rust all day while never actually developing anything themselves while everything gets rustified

I like making aliases in my bashrc that replace fancy technical commands with nice layman commands. On Debian, I replaced "doas" with "pls", and "doas apt-get" with "please". If I want to install cmatrix, I just tell my computer "please install cmatrix" and it installs it. I'm thinking of making my own automated package installer for Slackware that's just going to be nothing but this kind of syntax.

Fear not, young lady! I am a wizard, and I shall help you. Press escape and type in this spell: ":wq" No need to thank me. I'm just doing my duty...

It is cruel irony that I find vim the most comfy terminal based text editor. No other compares to it. But is so fucking complex and overloaded with features, that every time I need to correct my workflow it's major pain the ass.

>>1521 Curved monitors are gay hikarin

is there a big difference in quality between the tvs and monitors?

>>1551 monitors usually have higher resolution and more importantly higher horizontal frequency. a late sony trinitron can go up to 1600x1200 90@Hz vertical @90Khz horizontal but can't go as low as let's say 320x240 @31Khz horizontal, which is what console usually had as resolution until 6th gen. horizontal frequency is also important for scan lines iirc, so that's why it's usually better to get a tv for consoles and a monitor for games that were on PC if you care about experiencing stuff the way it was. There's also a big difference between europe and US/JP, the former has the worst quality with most tvs being either composite (up to 480i) or SCART (up to 576i for some weird reason), the latter often had component (better colors, progressive output). So if you have an older console for example and you're in europe you likely played it with the worst quality. As for why this happened i have no clue but it's pretty dumb, i have to guess regulations.

>>1551 tv is a monitor + software and/or hardware to watch porn monitor is monitor - it displays shit. though modern monitors do have some fancy ass shitware iirc >>1554 interesting point. good thing i don't buy tvs huh

I'm just about to build a NAS with some leftover parts from an old upgrade, some new parts, and the disks out of my current NAS 7900X3D 64GB DDR5 (I'll probably run it at 4800MT/s) 4x 20TB HDD in ZFS Z1 (I have an off-site backup) 6.4TB NVMe (PCIe 4.0 x8) for L2ARC 1.92TB NVMe (PCIe 3.0 x4) for SLOG (maybe, not sure) With the recent changes to L2ARC persistence and block size in TrueNAS, I intend to basically warm my L2ARC for a couple months, and then just basically never hit my disks again. My seeding torrents will probably fit entirely within L2ARC, as will a lot of my media library. In theory I get the benefit of a 52TB array with one disk redundancy, with the speed of NVMe for reads. I know SMB doesn't do sync writes, so my SLOG won't help there, but I have some VMs and containers using NFS shares which I think does? Normally so sync writes.

>>1537 Is your HDD noisy? Like, do you shut it off when you are going to sleep?

>>1542 its in another room but the hard drives are actually not that loud. the only thing loud about it is the fans when its starting up

>>1542 Not that anon, but I'm the 7900X3D (soon) NAS, when the R240 is quiet enough (it's way louder than the R220 it replaced ) hearing the 4 drives chugging away from seeding is actually quite comforting, I have it iny bedroom.
