i wanted to see how badly it affected my machine, but when i went to pirateproxy dot cc, it timed out, possibly because a lot of other people want to try it too, or possibly because they've been slashdotted. is that the right address?

i tried: https://thepiratebay.org/
but alas, no cpu usage spike like i was expecting
>>62470581
that one timed out for me as well. it's possible the local government censors are interfering.
it's weird, because you'd expect most people to be horrified at the idea of a site stealing their cpu cycles to make money, but a lot of the posters on slashdot seemed okay with it in principle, as long as it was stated up front. pretty much everyone said "it's better than ads".

Texbooks, posters and pizza contribute to the general public's concept of "going to college" as a leisurely thing every kid is supposed to do and it involves anything but studying.

I recently purchased a boxed set of Donald Knuth's The Art of Computer Programming on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Computer-Programming-Volumes-1-4A-Boxed/dp/0321751043) based on its stellar reputation as one of the indispensable, foundational computer science books that every programmer should read.
I excitedly started delving into it last night but after an hour or two of reading and exercises I started getting the sinking feeling that I'd just wasted $200. It seems quite mired in 1960's-era academic minutiae and tedious mathematical formalism that doesn't seem very relevant to a modern practicing programmer.
For all its focus on algorithmic performance I found no mention of pipeline stalls, designing for cache performance, branch prediction, multithreading, etc. which are all very fundamental aspects of good performance on modern hardware.
So for those who are practical programmers and have gone down the Knuth TAOCP rabbit hole I ask - was it worth it? Did it give you knowledge and skills applicable to your programming work or was it mostly academic / intellectual entertainment?

> based on its stellar reputation as one of the indispensible, foundational computer science books that every programmer should read.
You're not supposed to read it, nobody's ever actually read it. We all just say we've read it, talk about how brilliant it is, and place it prominently on our office bookshelves to silently humblebrag to anyone who drops by. Sorry you had to spend $200 on that lesson, mate.
you should have wasted those $200 on a mech keyboard
static void selectionSort(int[] lst) {
// get the length
int n = lst.length;
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
int index = 0;
int smallest = lst[i];
for (int j = i; j < n; j++) {
if (lst[j] < smallest) {
smallest = lst[j];
index = j;
}
int temp = lst[i];
lst[i] = smallest;
lst[index] = temp;
}
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(lst));
}

I don't have a better answer than this.
It's kind of like those massive door-stopper classical books that 1500+ pages.
We buy a copy and put it on our shelves because it makes us think that other people think we're smart.
The good part of Knuth, though, is that it is quite rigorous and should prepare you for just about any future readings.
What is stopping other phone manufacturers to make a phone with pressure sensitive stylus? There is literally no competition for the Note line.
I know Samsung owns part of Wacom, what about other technologies that other manufacturers can adopt?
Really like the stylus on the Note line but can't justify to spend so much money on a phone.
>>62469997
Wacom has all the patents for the passive stylus, meaning all other styluses need to be powered, aka have a fat battery in them. There are other tablet companies in the world, mostly Chinese, but they can't legally bring anything over to the US with a passive stylus even if they did make it and certainly wouldn't be featured in any international phones.
Not many people liked it and most are moving toward vectorized graphic editors like inkscape for most stuff which means a mouse is more than enough.
>>62470087
No one does graphic design with styluses. But almost all commercial artists use photoshop and it's not going to change.
could anybody here help me with this? I can't get into pornhub since this evening for some reason ;__;

Ok arch linux tor browser will not run, so I install linux mint however I want to use i3wm, so I install it along with is-status i3lock etc so its all nice but screen resolution FFS...
I use xrandr to set HDMI-0 to mode 1920-1080 works but will it fuck save as persistant, so I cp /etc/X11/xinit ~/.xinitrc
Then edit the file to include
exec xrandr --output HDMI-0 --mode 1920x1080
exec xrandr --dpi 100
and it still does not fucking work DSFADFSHDJGKULOJ
I thought arch was hard mode why the fuck is linux mint such a fucking murr?
Can someone nice just give me some insights?
Arch is babby tier.
Install LFS.
