That’s a good point. Better get a giant ass hard drive array going and connect it to something disposable, like an pi.
When they were protesting here in Akron, some asshole put out giant pallets of bricks all along the protest route. Fuckheads.
Division by zero in my ass?
That’s not because the registry is important or powerful. It’s the opposite. Microsoft designs their shitty operating systems to always assume the registry is perfect. Question nothing. Everything is literal. There is no sanity checking or error handling. So if something is off about the registry, the OS will just shrug and blue screen.
Stop using windows. It’s for children.
The windows registry is not a magical thing. That’s really all that dangerous. It’s just a giant central config file that you can store binary data in if you know what you’re doing. Malware can hide there too.
Tools that claim to lighten windows are almost always riddled with malware. You should never ever trust them. Those project build a base of loyal users, then change and add in malware later, compromising the system.
Windows is not a system you modify like that. It’s actually surprisingly Mac like in how you have to handle it. Be responsible. Build an OS up and out, bow down and back.
There are 3 movie files that have bad checksums but are still readable for some reason. Literally everything else is fine.
valid, fast and private OS wut?
Microsoft turns things back on all the time though. It doesn't matter what you set if they can unset it whenever they want.
I firmly believe this will go the way of Cortana once the AI bubble bursts. What I'm more concerned about is the normalization of terrible security and privacy practices.
Linux is everywhere and doing everything already. Windows only continues to exist because business majors are in charge and they are fucking dumb.
I have some artist friends who saw the writing on the wall after Adobe told Apple to fuck off with the iPad and Affinity said hold my beer. One owns her own publishing company and as of a few years ago all new projects were Adobe-free workflows. She still has Adobe but will only use it for older shit that might still need something later. Going forward, she (and therefore her entire operation) are fucking done with Adobe. Another friend learned both so he could adapt to whatever the market has in store for him and since the market sucks for artists he’s going freelance too and has said absolutely no to Adobe.
Adobe is officially legacy software. Vendor lock in won’t save it as the creatives don’t need industry titans to survive.
They do indeed! And if I had a framework that’s exactly what I would buy unless they had an ARM offering.
I just saw an ad for this and I really want to see it, but it's only in theaters and not in theaters in my area. I can't even torrent the thing because it's not anywhere anyone can rip. :(
It's weird they put exploits there at all. They were probably taking advantage of them themselves.
You need to stop worrying about “official support.” You aren’t a business so it doesn’t matter for you. There is more support out there online for free than you realize. There’s nothing magical framework does for you that doesn’t get ported out everywhere else eventually anyway. Stop limiting yourself like that.
That being said, Ubuntu is built in Debian. Debian is an incredibly solid and stable distro. Ubuntu does do a few questionable things with it but it’s still very reliable. If you have problems with stability, it’s very unlikely Ubuntu is the problem unless you did something so incredibly stupid to it support wouldn’t help you anyway.
I have a theory. Windows can dance around memory corruption issues in ways Linux just refuses to do. Windows will misbehave in strange ways trying to make things work until it just can’t anymore. Linux is more of a binary thing. It works or it doesn’t. It’s not going to play pretend for you. It refuses. Linus has an obscene hand gesture for your hardware.
I want you to get a copy of memtest86+ and boot it off a flash drive. Then just let it beat the shit out of your CPU and ram for a couple hours.
Framework laptops are generally Intel. Intel hasn’t been making the best stuff over the past few years. It’s possible your cpu might be affected by a flaw Intel tried to cover up for a while. If it has it, nothing in earth will ever make that chip reliable. It’s not fixable. It will only get worse with time no matter what OS you use.
Sounds like that senior has a career in sales.
It’s inferences derived from pattern recognition of large data sets! Jesus, it’s not hard!
I’ve been playing around with i2p for about a month now, trying out i2p/i2p+/i2pd on various devices. It seems like the next step in torrenting tech. You can’t take down a distributed tracker or website, all connections are encrypted, there are multiple hops, and the more people that use it the faster it gets. I’m still trying to optimize performance in my set up.
I will say the Java routers seem to heavily favor x86 which just baffles me. They seem more stable than the c++ router but the c++ router is less featureful. I’m most excited for the new emissary router written in rust but it’s still incomplete. It’s too new to trust just yet and the UDP support is incomplete.
