Will be documenting my journey from totally uninstalling windows to booting fedora 45 and configuring it. I have around 16 gb ram and want to make it more efficient for my tasks. Will stick with gnome for now. XFCE is good but I'm not running a server.
Have a lot of important files so will start by saving them, and studying file system, system utilities and libraries. I'm already well read on OS, kernels so will also discuss differences with windows as i discover them.

>gnome is about as bloated
Bloated in comparison to kde or xfce but not windows kek
>>1109
>>1110
kde barely frees 200-300 mb more which is negligible and gnome makes up for it with zram anyway, might just go kde lets see
>>1105
Update 1: Was messing around with bootloaders and noticed windows maliciously changes and even overwrites the ESP to change UEFI priorities. Muh dual booters zara idhar aana.
Anyways I have decided to go against systemd-boot even though its faster and has CLI
I wanted a foss android gallery app which can access hidden folders (those whose filename starts with '.') nested within directories, can play all types of file formats for gif, photos, videos etc. and a booru like tagging system for our media files such that you can have multiple tags for a given media file and you can search by tags, filter by them, use em like folders. It's pretty great for organizing different stuff like memes ifykwim instead of rigid autistic folders.
Aves libre can't even access the entire filesystem, can't tag webms for some reason. Because it tags the file's metadata directly instead of maintaining a separate tagging database like a real fucking human would need.
Fossify gallery is almost perfect. Can browse hidden folders in deep nested directory structures but can't play few videos of higher bitrate or resolution. It doesn't have tagging capability, you can just 'favourite' stuff which is useless.
I can't even find a non foss app which can do this. There's a vacuum in the market for this kind of app, any wagie codecel can try making an app like this as a fun project. Or if you do know such an app please tell.
I don't have my own personal computer which only I can use and I have no fucking privacy when on it, otherwise I'd have just used hydrus network on my machine.
i will learn javascript, i don't know anything about it as I always codes in c/c++. but today is the day I must decend, so that I can get a job.
starting with variables, wot the actual fuck broosssss. it's even worse than python.
there are 3 diff ways of initializing variables, that are var, let, and const.
why 3, const is understandable, but var and let?????
is this how you webjeet codes in????
and what's up with this comparison operators??? "==="??? why not just "=="
i'm already loosing my mind. i hope typescript may have fixed all these bullshits
so javascript is actually a very good choice for asynchronous programming. the main tread runs on single-tread, the async process is non-blocking, it will run in background while running the main thread (kinda like concurrently)
there are mainly 3 important parts in js runtime.
- call stack
- task queue
- microtask queue
call stack as the name suggest is a stack of "functions"
task queue and microtask queue are FIFO structure that holds callbacks from async operation like setTimout, fetch, setInterval I/O bla bla bla.
then only difference between task queue and microtask queue is priority. task queue has more priority that microtask queue
I recently heard of a anon who planned to capitalise on the huge backlash of sony.
He thought what if we push it to its logical extreme??
what happens then?? the sony playstation will be discontinued.
But the hole made by such a giant falling would still be there.
I wish to fill that hole(no homo tho)
An indian origin console.
But the network effect sony and xbox has will not be subsumed by a new rookie player so I also need to push xbox to push towards cloud.
With two incumbents out. the market will belong to everyone and no one at the same time. In that chaos I will build a brand.
Do help to brainstorm this idea
As time goes by I've been noticing a steady decline in how useful a popular search engine like Google is getting.
There are intentional blocks on the search engine so that most of the websites related to piracy are completely excluded from the results. Few sites which you could've caught hold of a few years ago you'll not find them in search results now if they are related to piracy.
On top of that a moralfagging AI overview will tell you how it's le bad to pirate and I should just suck it up and "obtain it legally" because "you just can't, okay?" atitude.
Even duckduckgo feels better than Google these days. I use searxng and yandex (for image search) but accidentally used google now and then I realised how bad things really are.
Google is like the frontpage of internet to the normies, they're collectively being psyopped into thinking that piracy is too difficult to fuck around with. Even on a hecking subreddit like r/ulpt you're left with moralfaggy reddit tier advice to just "support the multimillion corporation bro."
All the remaining places on the internet with real humans are demonised in mainstream conciousness like how imageboards are seen for example...
Hoard everything you like, all kinds of media. They're gonna make it much harder and a pain in the ass to obtain them later. Build your archives and prepare for the future.

I feel you yaaro
I pirate most of the stuff I see like movies and games, But I never download and archive them
I have been thinking for a long time about archiving the Media I like into my device and to preserve it like I did with the hard-drive of my broken old laptop.
How do you efficiently Archive Media without Filling up too much space anons?
Do I compress it and store it in zip files?
I also feel like Digital Media will be treated similarly to how old Books are treated nowadays
They are Disposing the Books after feeding them to the Machine
The Machine is telling them to create a monopoly over Knowledge
We must protect the data, the memories and The Past so that they won't corrupt their perception of us like they are doing with those before us.
Never Forget Nalanda.

I just zip them currently. Trying to find more better ways though.

First they got us rid of physical media, and now digital media. They want to remove the notion within human consciousness that you can own your stuff and keep it with you till you want to. They want everyone to become a renter not owner, you don't own your digital games, books, movies and music which you get from these corpos. Those are ephemeral, they can take it away from you anytime. They want to monopolize on media and make it such that you can find it only from them.

If you actually use google for research, just use x ray search operators and you'll find most things. Search engines are meant to serve slop for the average person and serve as top of funnel for ads.
Just go old school and search for sites like you would on darknet. Imagine there are no crawlers or seo. You can't get a website just by typing "football piracy site saar"
My hard disk is making the clicking sound of death. What do I do now?
I can't afford to spend 20k to buy seagate and similar hard disks made by legit companies.

Global izzat loss, but they're not talking about other american company who had hackers sitting there for 1 month running background job for exporting data

He who controls the social media controls the narrative
>Naveen Kumar ML>Assignee>Comment 39 • 5 hours ago>There are a lot of questions here. As most of you can imagine, we have been subject to intense social media scrutiny and analysis by investors/customers over the last few days and it has made doing any meaningful analysis of the event pretty much impossible. The event happened on April 30 2025 and was done by set of people who have worked in the PKI industry for several years and worked with us for a while. There is a lot of digging we need to do to understand the circumstances, why, what, how to share a meaningful report that can hopefully benefit the community. I do not know why some community members think we wont be getting back on this bug. When we signed up for the browser program trust, we also signed up for disclosure obligations to the community which we will uphold.>Naveen.
Bro thinks he's part of the team lmao. Jeets need to stop attributing one paisa of trust to gora saab in the big 2026. "The community" will just spin his answers in the worst way possible. Bro needs to stop typing srsly.
