You might wanna try postmarketOS on it. It might be a funny homelab... given they suppport it... https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Devices

>>1848 That might be fun, however the tablet isn't officially supported. Could try a generic version or something maybe. The tablet is model SM-T220. Galaxy Tab A7 Lite.

Here's mine. This is my second PC, took it out yesterday. Using it since and will probably use it more because I'm too lazy to use anything else right now. I have a 1050Ti I want to use but guess what, I'm too lazy to set it up.

>>1829 pretty. what's the theme?

thinkin of changing up my desktop, but really since i'm using KDE there is only so much i can do. any suggestions hikarins? >change DE using immutable distro, can't do that.

>>1830 NTA, but it looks like Redmond97 SE Ouroboros? Or something close to it. https://codeberg.org/Sliver_X/Redmond97-SE

>>443 writing an irc bot/client from scratch i see. nice. just remember to check SSL_get_error() and ERR_get_error that tripped me up one time.

>>1836 Take this post as a grain of salt, because my knowledge is based on rumors on the Internets. But I think I get your surprise. Assuming that this really is the legitimate 4chan source code, it's definitely strange because it's always been proprietary in the past. I don't know much about 4chan's technical history, but I'm pretty sure that 4chan's script started as a translation of futaba channel's / 2chan.net's source code, which is downloadable for free from their website (I don't know what license it uses, if any). I'm purely speculating, but maybe moot & friends knew it was poorly coded and intentionally sought security through obscurity, so they just kept it proprietary. >It is fitting given the history and people of 4chinz Yeah, I imagine* a disproportionate number of people espouse FOSS (I am one :) ) on 4chan, so it's a little ironic that the site itself runs proprietary code. *I have no idea how many people support FOSS on other social medias because I pretty much exclusively use imageboards. I'm assuming that the more mainstream, the lower the share, generally speaking. i'm rambling now >>1838 I'm not aware of any sites that are using it. But yeah I'm sure you could run your own imageboard with yotsuba's code. I haven't looked through the files nor do I even know much PHP in the first place, so I don't know if the code actually works or not. Though given 4chan's history of hacks, you'd probably want to make some changes.

>>1838 I believe there were a few attempts although nothing lasting. Doesn't help that you'd need a pretty outdated environment to run this if I'm not mistaken?

>>1839 >I'm assuming that the more mainstream, the lower the share, generally speaking. Yeah, normans don't really care about FOSS. or even understand what that means. There is a more considerable size of people who understand and generally prefer OSS, but even they are a vocal minority. Let alone FOSSmans. Gotta remember, mainstream social media is full of people who don't even know what an IP address is or what an operating system is.

>>1843 lol, if you ask some of my friends, getting someone's IP address means you're le the ultimate h4xx0r.

>>1840 Poorchan uses it but that site feels more like a test than an actual attempt at running an imageboard

I am looking to switch out my over-ear PC headphones for some wired earbuds of some kind. Do you guys have any recommendations? From looking online I see people recommending these, the SENNHEISER Professional IE 100 PRO. My caveat is I don't really like the wired headphones that have the silicone tips, I'd rather have the kind that are shaped like the Apple Earpods but I don't think that specific design is very common unfortunately. Any thoughts?

Honestly 1080p is enough still and if you dont care all that much maybe try the jump to what others call 2k (2560×1440). It's a huge jump in quality and wayyy easier to run than 4k. I wouldn't recommend ultra wide unless you know how to mod games and all your shows will have black bars. I will say you should try a dual monitor setup! It's convenient if you ever wanna boot up something separate or put a video on the side. Sometimes I'll play my ps3 on my main monitor and transfer files/do other tech stuff on my pc in the background. 100hz is good but if you can affordably get 144 or 175hz I'd recommend that too. Realistically you shouldnt't need to spend more than ~3-400 dollars on a new monitor, especially around holidays or days like fathers/mothers day. They get real cheap around them at places like Best Buy usually. Last bit of advice: price check always. I bought a monitor off Amazon for 50 dollars more than I would have paid on Newegg

Are Thinkpads really worth it? I have the opportunity to buy one for 387 USD, around 8gb of RAM and refurbished

>>1817 overpriced worth it if cheaper

>>1817 Don't spend more than $100 on a Thinkpad.

Hey, OP here. I finally built the PC. Everything has been working fine, until I heard this rattling/grinding noise from my PSU. Is it something I should really be worried about? I may need to RMA it. https://files.catbox.moe/m8jka7.mp4

>>1827 You may have to do that. Just dont open it up and tinker with it. Your life isnt worth a couple hundred dollars at most

>>1806 What if you vibe code?

>>1807 Vibe cope

>>1806 sorry hikarin i don't know perl

>Anyone here know perl? Perl is unknowable. A monk can train for a hundred years in the monastery at the foot of the masters without achieving satori. Reflect on Perl. Recite Larry's sutras. In time, you will find the Perl was inside you all along. Go in peace~

>>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.

why are you gae

cool

Do you like doing hackthebox and other ctfs? What videogames do you like? Have you tried emulating OSX or windows? Or more obscure systems? Thinking about going back to qubes myself..

>>1811 OP here. specifically on QubesOS gayming is not very good, something to do with the way the system sends input to the VM by default. you can hack it to work (i tried with Minecraft as a test) but it's obviously not the intention. i did not try emulating OSX but i did emulate Windows 7 and it was fine enough, about the same as emulating it on any other OS. >obscure systems i did emulate ReactOS on it, i suppose that counts i actually ended up switching off of it because i decided it was unnecessary for my threat model, and my 8gb laptop frequently ran out of memory during my daily usage.

>a combination of dicksword, Anonymous Imageboard and Feditwittereddiverse

People have been trying to make stuff like this forever. At the end of the day it's never something new, even live boards follow the same formula. Everytime a new ``next big things" seems to happen, it just remind me of a more creative and thought-through project that never went anywhere.

I have an SSD in both of my computers. You may as well upgrade, hikarin. It's a noticable improvement.

I think its very worth it, I have a t60 and upgraded it to an ssd, it took it from an old pc to basically on par with any of my newer computers.

>>1754 SSDs not only have faster read/write times (essentially quicker transfer speeds) but some games are now requiring them to load stuff quick enough. You may see an increase in performance and they have virtually zero moving parts (at least m.2's) so you don't have to worry about head crashes or moving parts failing/making noise.

>>1754 Me luv SSD I can just slam them and memory doesn't get corrupt. Like God intended. Stone tablet tier reliability
