There's a lot of langauges that have been referred to as "BASIC". Which one?
>>18627 (OP) AskAI told me that you could make modern programs in basic so now I want to learn it just to make a rusttranny seethe
Whole 3D games have been made with BlitzBasic/DarkBasic, and FreeBasic seems to have a somewhat positive perception like FreePascal/Lazarus aswell. Go nuts.

NixOS? Anonymous 02/03/2025 (Mon) 03:24:03 No. 17173 [Reply] >>20912
Anyone here a NixOS user? just started and this shit kinda sucks.

>>20721 There's also that schizo John Ringer who works at said military contract place who regularly dunks on the nixpkgs retards and is creating his own hard fork a nix package store that's architecturally different than nixpkgs. Nixpkgs is fine for the average end user. It just works but the architecture is so robust that people can just come by and create their own version of it if the people who maintain the repo decide to revolt.
>>17173 (OP) Used to use NixOS but got fed up with it because almost every single time I'd update, something would start to compile from source and then fail or just be straight up broken. My favorite is when I had to pin the Nix tool to a specific version because newer ones would just core dump when ran (thank fuck for previous configs in the boot menu). Not to mention random shit failing due to expecting FHS, seemingly a gorillion different badly documented ways of doing something and the split between flakes and traditional configs. All of this coupled with my NEETdom ending just made me switch to a normalfag distro.
Nix as a development tool is incredible. I write a simple flake, put "use flake" in an .envrc, and my dependency problems are solved. I don't have to shit up my system with git repos or AUR packages that I'll only use once. The only thing keeping me away from NixOS at this point is the tedium of setting it up.

Monero As the Internet's Currency Anonymous 04/18/2021 (Sun) 01:27:33 No. 3581 [Reply] [Last]
There's many cryptocurrencies out there. But out of the many cryptocoins out there only one stands out, Monero. It's safe, secure, private, and anonymous and there has yet to be a government agency that can crack its code. It's also not handled by banks, payment processors, and credit card companies that may blacklist you for bullshit reasons. The promising technology of atomic swapping will also render crypto exchanges to be not needed as this will counter government regulations of asset exchanges. Also this cryptocurrency is the easier to mine compared to Bitcoin. So do you think Monero will see more widespread use in the future? Give your thoughts.

This tail emission enables two key features in Monero > A lower bound of network security forever (miners will always be able to rely on 0.6XMR per block, no matter the fee market) A dynamic block size (Monero’s blocks can grow/shrink to adapt to short-term increases in usage, with a penalty to mining rewards during these times).

>>18772 its not made for games but yea im pretty sure you can run games on it depending on what you running it on
>>18772 Steam, games etc. yes. System container is a minimal distro within a distro and uses host kernel. You give it gpu access and x/wayland/pulse/pipewire sockets with necessary libs and games run just like on host and you can even use host fs/disks.
>>6580 (OP) Disclosure: I haven't used Qubes in quite a while. Qubes is supposed to be a distro made for personal security, but people think its "security" is bullshit, for multiple reasons (QEMU and Xen have had many vulns; VMs really are not the same as isolation, ...). I was surprised to see that programs in the VMs are running as root... so I kinda agree with that. I'd guess you could easily pivot between VMs if you have 0days for QEMU. You can play games on Qubes. There are some guides out there for that (not sure how outdated they are though). You need a dedicated GPU for that, though, and ideally an AMD GPU, IIRC. Qubes is really cool if you believe you are safer because of like tinkering with stuff, but it gets tiring after a while. The usability(?) of the UI kinda sucks; it's written in python so crashes happen sometimes, etc. Also, Xen, QEMU, etc. have some limitations (eg: you can't run nested VMs, which would be really nice for researching stuff or, hell, working with emulators and shit). I also was never able to get a Windows VM to work. YMMV.

>>21166 >>21146 I mean the 7700x AMD CPU I'm not up to date at all after that generation, it does however seem like graphics requirements isn't accelerating in game releases. In general I would say don't go crazy on CPU it isn't going to be fully utilized in vidya because GPU throttles first every time. Also you don't need 64gb RAM if you're just playing vidya 32 is fine. Also I know power on that site list is within 100w, but if you're getting a PSU with a 10 year warranty anyway (most PSU's but definitely double check. If Corsair doesn't offer it get Super Flower or Seasonic) I'd go 850w to improve likelihood of reuse in the next build. Tape on the receipt and forget about it. Was 4000->5000 Nvidia a very big improvement? Are the costs comparable? Oblivion/Helldivers/BG3/Cyb2077 on high all resulted in 45-50~ FPS on 1440p I have a 2080ti, it was enough for me I guess. Also if you're ever able to get a thermalright dual fan instead of water cooling, do it. Radiators in AIOs/custom loops have a failure risk which is completely unnecessary with AMD a lot of the time because their chips are cooler but again 9800X3D I don't know a lot about them. If money is no object and you're kewl blowing 2k you should go for two 4K monitors (or one ultrawide if you like curved), bookshelf speakers and an amp it'll be badass >t. worked for a custom PC shop in the past

>>21225 Riot is no better than discord unfortunately, I like using session but theres nothing out there that matches discords gui, even though it's painfully simple to match it or even improve on it

At least from how I use it with friends. >drop-in drop-out voice chat >easy streaming/screen sharing >shitposting memes to each other >basic text chat function >multiple rooms/channels to keep things organized Discord also has qol stuff like replying to specific messages so conversations don't get disorganized like in IRC. And reactions to messages are useful, we basically just give a thumbs up to indicate "I saw your message but I won't clutter up the chat with another post." And the noise cancelation/input output levels are easily adjustable within the client, where others are often limited so you have to dig into device settings which isn't intuitive, especially for less technically savvy users. All the other shit like bots, nitro, and whatever the fuck boosting is can eat shit. And fuck every retard that tries to use discord to replace forums. Functionally I see little wrong with Discord for my uses, but its status as a data harvesting machine is AIDS and the moment I find something that fits the above criteria for chilling/shitposting among freinds, I'm jumping ship. I checked out matrix a while ago, but the immediate problem of needing to call someone to start a voice chat would kill it if I tried to get others on board.

Le Hashchan Anonymous 08/05/2024 (Mon) 09:05:55 No. 15856 [Reply] >>20932
Hashchan.network is a leechboard that piggybacks on ethereum eventlogs and ipfs pinning services (or other hotlinked content). This makes it serverless in the sense anyone can run a client locally with their own eth rpc. Hashchan was designed for the proliferation of AI botnet swarms that drown out authentic content. Highly shilled content can cost a dollar to post on mainnet, but this means it costs 10 dollars for a botnet to 10x your posts. If your staked in eth, this means the botnet increases the return on your investment if it tries. https://github.com/hashchan
