it's all proprietary, just how your hardware is also proprietary. like can you even take out your chip set and remake them to your liking. all proprietary.

i can do this and i did this for some parts, if i had a lithography machine i could even make my own chips and not rely on pre made ICs

>OS (proprietary software)
I made my own OS and I am not going to share its code, which means that I am modifying proprietary code.

Its one of the simplest languages around, and its the simplest to learn too, just keep in mind of some of its features its called portable assembly for a reason, theres no array bound checking when passing through a function, i think thats a feature given by the compiler on static arrays, and keep in mind to what a pointer is, which is a memory address, that means its just an unsigned 64bit integer depending on your processor, and then apply the syntax to dereference the pointer and access whats inside with the type provided, ie. *(ptr+i), be it int(32 bits) or char(8 bits)

 9382

>>9359
learn the basics (e.g., what an integer is, what stdin/stdout is, how memory allocation works, etc)
in other words, learn how computers work more or less
then read the source code of programs written in C you use, so any program that just works and actually matters, and doesnt require a ton of user interaction and user-side fixing/hacking to make it usable
for example, GNU, linux, the 200 or so command line programs you use every day that arent part of gnu, etc...
figure out (or look up) what foo does in C, and study the sauce code
then read the C bible

 9393

>>9359
I recomend CS50 by harvard (https://cs50.harvard.edu/x/2023/)
It teaches you the basics of C to then move on Python etc...
It's very good since it doesen't assume you know even basic computer ideas such as binary.

After troubleshooting the command you posted is wrong, you're setting the accel exponent to -0.55 so you're decreasing your sensitivity on movement actually, so you first need to find your mouse id or name through $ xinput --list and turn off the acceleration with
xinput --set-prop device-id 'libinput Accel Profile Enabled' 0, 1
and then you set your Accel Speed to 0
Which is not permanent, i followed the arch linux manual while on Linux Mint and it asked me to create a file on /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-mouse-acceleration.conf with some syntax, to which i did and still didnt work, so i need to setup a crontab to initiate those commands for me, i tried to put @reboot ~/init.sh at first and it didnt work so now i put the full path for the script and i hope it works next time i bootup.

mental outlaw is coal though

 9365

Mental Outlaw is mostly just the tech channel, bottom of the barrel, enthusiast circlejerk with the latest "news" that everyone talks about on forums anyway. His addition of the average commonsense conservative political views are uninteresting and add nothing of value. I don't hate the guy and I'll watch his videos if I have nothing better to do. He's just penguinz0 for techtards who think they're based and 'pilled

9/10 Unbuntu docs and forums solutions work the same. I've been using Liquorix as my kernel and oibaf upstream graphics drivers for months and have had no issues. Again, Mint is just Ubuntu minus spyware and with arguably better DEs

unironically if gaming is your no 1 use for your computer stick to windows (or install a better version of it like LTSC 2021)

i play games on linux but i didn't install linux for the games
