>set up windows 10 VM on an external hard drive >slow as shit for no reason >drive keeps seeking a lot for no reason >check task man >"windows modules installer worker" is has disk access of up to 20 MB/s I thought it would go away but this has been happening for like 4 days. I hate windblows and i hate glowie updates. It's always doing something stupid in the background and suddenly right click menus take 2 seconds to render. Should of installed tiny10.

These NVME SSD's are so fast. My program created a 4.4 gb file in under a second. I thought the command didn't run or the calculations didn't happen. But no, everything in under a second. Such mindfuck modern tech is.

Spilled tea on my laptop awhile ago, was fixed but the battery isn't capable of being charged, so it has to be plugged in constantly. Also has trouble powering up, with some issue of powerflow between the powersource and the motherboard. Now it's started randomly turning off. Think it's days are numbered. Does anyone have a decent, cheap computer for programming? Going abroad so I won't need gaming or anything really, more interested in writing and programming now.

>>7356 Budget ? Choice of is ? Size needs ?

>>7356 Motherboard dying mostly. Sad.

>>7360 Around 600 CAD, no size requirement. Windows preferably. >>7361 Yep, and the motherboard for my computer can be found nowhere. I'm hoping it lasts the next few months but I have a bad feeling it's going to get worse.

>>7362 http://amazon.ca/Lenovo-Thinkpad-1920x1080-Business-Thunderbolt/dp/B08T6J8MZK/

>>7364 How are Thinkpads generally? Also, is it worth trusting refurb products?

>>7381 Very repairable Their USB c port is.prone to breakage but otherwise very reliable. Keyboards are decent. Refurbished are good because repairs are easy and manuals easy to find.

>>7392 Literally what is the USB c supposed to be for? What is wrong with the full size USB ports

>>7402 Faster Stronger physically Carries more current Can support more monitors etc I have a single usb c cable setup. One cable plugged in and my monitor, keyboard, mouse, power, everything works. The issue is with the implementation in Chinkpads and Dells. You won't find this issue with Framework for example.

Overnight lot of CEO's and tech people have left Europe after Telegram CEO's arrest. I don't think these exits will make news, but as these people change their companies registrations, it will hurt an already weakened EU. Not that EU has any strength in the tech market. But this will further weaken a weak continent.

DeDRM not working in Calibre. Fucking Amazon DRM is such a pain. I bought the fucking book. Now let me fucking pirate it.

>>7904 I hope someone makes an open source version of this. I'll listen to white papers podcasts instead of Hawk Tuah.

>>7938 Had to google this. LOOOOL. Seriously though, I hope so too. Audio has become my main source of consumption ,though for my 2nd read, I still use pdf's/epubs.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVyu7NB7W6Y Video about how SS7 (Signalling System 7) can be, and is, regularly compromised so random people can track any other random people or even VIPs. They have left out a lot of details about the exact nature of the attack, perhaps on purpose. I will have to read the SS7 documentation and a bunch of other documents too. This has caught my interest. >>7404 Oh I have never seen this but it sounds useful. It's like dock maybe, but without the expensive shit. what other hardware do you need? i don't think monitors have USB C input just yet. >>7283 I found whatever executable that controls windows update n system32 and replaced it with an executable which just returns zero. Windows thinks it is broken, I believe i fixed it

>>8123 I use picrel. Monitors have usb C inputs now. Expensive ones even have docks and power supply built in, so one cable to connect to your monitor and you have everything. I connect the following to my dock (picrel) Ethernet Usb A dongle for mouse and keyboard External hard drive Input power Monitor Audio interface So 1 cable plugged in and my laptop has access to my peripherals. > Linus Vertasium video Govts use this means of attack. At this point, text messages and calls are all recorded in all big countries and many small too. this is usually the method used. Using the sms , apps like Signal and Telegram can also be hijacked in specific cases.

>>5540 My phone dies randomly these days. I think it's the battery but I can't be sure, it does this even at 80%+. Sometimes I think it might be because of overheating but there are counterexamples too. Can I use logcat to see why it powers off? Or any other tool. I was taking a backup yesterday and did logcat, and there were some battery related errors showing up on the log Phone is 3 years old now (exactly 3 years old this October... I'm being schizo but I wonder if some hidden switch tripped when it completed 3 years of service)

>>8153 Check the battery health using those battery health apps. 3 year old batteries dying is not uncommon.

Now that the FOSS movement has chosen geopolitical sides, I think its high time the BRICS fraction should just fork Linux and start making our own Kernels and OS's. China is already doing it and honestly not doing a bad job.
