On my place of employment's computers, without authorization I continue to download the Snowflake extension. This extension was designed by the Tor Project, and it creates a WebRTC proxy in your web browser to serve as a bridge for users where Tor is heavily blocked. The best part is to install the extension, most of the time you don't even need admin privileges and you can configure it to run even when the browser is closed with the click of a button. Am I a good or bad person for doing this? https://snowflake.torproject.org/

To do this on Android, install Orbot and enable "Kindness Mode". With the recent flareups in the Middle East, there's been a massive wave of blocking Tor in the effected countries, please help if you can!

>>1465 My node participated in 1 (one) circuit in the past 4 or so hours. What the fuck?

>>

>>1437 fyi, it's a proxy to the actual Snowflake bridge. it's not an actual bridge itself.

>>

You inspired me and did the same. One more proxy!

Is buying old Thinkpads, Librebooting them and then reselling them a real business strategy? I remember people used to do this a few years ago when Thinkpad nostalgia was at its peak (2021 I think) but I didn't think people still did it. I always thought the type of person who would want a Librebooted Thinkpad would also be the type of person who would want to do it themselves, let alone the concern that the person "Librebooting" it also isn't putting spyware on your machine (See: Anom)

>$255 hoollly fuck are you guys fucking crazy????spooked

>>1428 are you poor?

>>1429 yes i don't have $255 for junk that barely costs $100 these days.skeptical it's far more practical to save up to $600 and buy something decent and recentsleep

Its a little off topic but I recently bought a Lenovo ThinkPad T14 with 32GB of RAM and a 13th gen Intel i7 CPU and I'm loving it so far love This is the first time I've ever used Windows on a laptop before without it being insanely laggy laugh

>I always thought the type of person who would want a Librebooted Thinkpad would also be the type of person who would want to do it themselves I think some people want the benefits of it without having to actually do it themselves

How much math is actually required when programming?

>>

>>38 understanding basic geometry in 2D and in 3D, (for example, equations of lines, linear interpolations between points) is very helpful if you are dealing with graphics or even just bare gui layouts For everything else, the way math works is that once someone has figured something out you can just copy the solution. It's highly unlikely that you ever get to work on something inovative so its quite useless. It's still a good idea to understand these things tough If I say that your algorithm takes quadratic time, you should immediately know what that means and why otherwise you will look like a dunce

>>

The amount of math you need will vary depending on what "genre" of programming you're working in. Web development might not need more than basic arithmetic, but you should explore languages that specialize in scientific computation to see another world of computing. https://julialang.org/community/organizations/

>>

Not a lot and for those areas where it is necessary you can learn it then since it's usually just a sub-part of what you'd get taught in school. (like matrices and calculus for 3D graphics or understanding the modular multiplicative inverse for RSA crypto) It's usually the theoretical college parts for academics that focus on the mathematics.

Many people think that math is the only form of logic or the purest one, but math is just one of many different ways to think logically. Computers and machines focus primarily on machine logic, iteration, electricity, etc. Programming is highly logical but it's not a branch of maths by itself. What to expect: If you do computer graphics, data analysis, LLM, etc, you will use a decent amount of maths, not because of programming itself but because of your field. If you don't work on a math-heavy field then you won't do much maths besides arithmetics, though something that sticks is the declarative mindset of maths. Computers are inherently procedural, but in functional programming you think in a declarative way. If you like that then that's alright and if you don't then that's alright too because there are plenty of traditional languages and machines themselves are not declarative.

>>

>>38 none. you can learn math by programming in fact thats what most people end up doing.

How does your desktop look like /t/? How ricy is it?

>>

>>1378 Development branch is the testing branch, edge itself is just the rolling release repository. It's extremely stable, the only issue I ever had was gimp being recognised as updated when it was still on version 2, I just had to reinstall it to properly have version 3. Other than that I never had any problem

>>

>>1353 thanks happy2 the 11 hours I get is after applying all those optimisations you suggested but as >>1355 Says, enabling amd_pstate driver did yeild better results by utilising the newer hardware powersaving features of my CPU . But I think this applies to my specific machine as opposed to something that would work with a ThinkPad . surprised Using 'indicator cpufreq' to cap the max CPU clock to 500mhz while doing light tasks like reading PDFs also boosts the battery tremendously and make the laptop be comfy enough to used on the lap without getting 3rd degree burns laugh I was basically trying to see if I can outlast MacBooks of my colleagues and not have to carry the 2 kilo brick of a charger eww ROGs come with

>2kilo charger Lol whatlaugh I have 48w charger and it's super light. Another is 65w and it's barely a kilo.skeptical

Modern consumer-grade laptops tend to have durability issues, while business-class laptops tend to be highly durable but refurbished ones are a few generations behind. There's also smaller companies like Tuxedo, Slimbook, System76, etc that seem to make durable laptops as well. At this point, is there any mainstream consumer-grade laptop that is actually durable, or are we now limited to business and Linux laptops?

>>

>>1396 skeptical slimbook site looks like shit. Frameworks' site is at least tolerablesleep also why do you compare refurbished to brand newnope

>>

>>1397 I didnt elaborate I meant to compare business laptop durability and repairability with slimbook's since usually we get refurbished business laptops when we want one of that type

>>

>>1291 I'm personally a fan of my Dell Latitude 5420. I paid 400 USD for 512GB of NVME Storage, Fingerprint reader, 16GB Ram, built-in wifi, pretty good repairability, plus a fuckton of I/O

>>

>>1399 That's the great thing about business laptops like the latitudes and the thinkpads it's very nice

>>

I've been using the Slimbook since it arrived in tuesday and I can conclude that the battery bypass feature is not placebo. The idea is that, once the charge limit is reached, the charging goes straight to the hardware and bypasses the battery to save its lifespan. After intense use of this laptop since tuesday + gaming, the battery cycle count is still at 0!!! I wonder any mainstream brand does this

What are your methods of protecting your privacy from giant tech and internet corporations?

>>1412 there is a crossboard quoting bug lol you probably don't have to change *that* much data by hand though, :(

and what's weird is that it's only on the overboard??? Do you guys handle quoting outside of your "Post" class or whatever similar? 0_0

>>1411 my password manager does it. I can write a shell script that wraps around any tool, processes a file and pads it for three fiddy (in Monero). it's not rocket science
