  • how to fully dump Windows and install LineageOS.

    Are you fucking Moses? Then how the fuck did you manage to turn your Windows Machine into an android phone?

    is the level of acrimony toward LLMs.

    Good, since you apparantly arent able to use your brain, I’m gonna speed run it real quick:

    • Its frying the planet
    • its generating way to much slop, making anyone unable to find true non hallucinated information
    • its a literal PsyOP
    • it’s rotting peoples critical thinking
    • its being shoved down everyone’s throat, tho it can’t even generate simple things.
    • people are using it to slood FOSS projects.

    such an emotional response with this crowd.

    Its not emotional, its just having the same negative experience over and over and over again

    It’s a tool that has gone from interesting (GPT3) to terrifying

    The only thing that’s terrifying about it us peoples brain rotting away their critical thinking


  • mainly for the integrated graphics to use jellyfin’s hardware transcoding. Is the UHD 730 enough for that?)

    My 4th gen Intel i5 can do that

    No idea what to get for MB

    You get the cheapest thing available with your socket that has at least 4 sata slots for migration

    Server quality storage is extremely expensive, not sure if its worth buying.

    Just get 2 WD blues

    For case I saw some suggestion for cases with a ton of hotswappable drive bays

    Or, you know, if you are making a whole post crying about your financial situation, maybe you can just move your ass and manually swap the HDDs.

    PSU I want to get any gold PSU with low wattage from a reputable brand

    If you want something energy efficient, why in gods name do you want to buy a desktop CPU?

    16gb of any decent ram I suppose?

    If you want to be fancy I guess, but my 25€ half dead optiplex that dosent even pass its own self test is currently running on 8 gigs of DDR 3 storage from different brands I got out of dumpsterdiving in a junkyard right before they threataned to call the police on me, and I live in goddamn Germany, so maybe make up your mind if you want to be crying about being poor or actively going out of your way to buy fancy Server Equipment I can only dream about in my setup.











  • Could I get a fairphone that won’t suffer from obsolescence after a few years?

    You can get a fp 4 which is still getting updates after 10 years. I have no idea where you got the idea that if a phone is not the newest thing, its obsolete. Except maybe if youre one of those iPhone Lobotomites

    I swear I was just looking at the 4 and deciding against it

    Again. It is 10 year old. You should not be getting a phone at the end of its lifespan.

    Can I get a forever phone where I can upgrade and repair module by module

    That would be great, but again, a phone is not the same as a Framework laptop. You have way less space in there, and unlike Laptops, the Question of Modularity has not already been solved by a 20 Year old 10 kg Thinkpad.

    Also, the things you care about like the Camera and such have not changed for phones in a long time, together with the Power requirement. I can still use my old af S7 just like my 2 year old pixel 7 without problems, and furthermore, the only thing that significantly changes with the models is their approach to the whole chassis to the phone, and aou cant just expect to put the mb of a Framework 13 into a 16 without problems
