Trump tariffs result in 10% laptop price hike in U.S. says Acer CEO

https://www.tomshardware.com/laptops/acer-ceo-10pc-price-rise-tariffs

>Acer Laptop prices in the U.S. are set to rise by 10% from March 2025, commented CEO Jason Chen in an interview with The Telegraph. Chen states that the price hike is a direct result of the Trump administration's incoming tariffs.

>"We will have to adjust the end user price to reflect the tariff," Chen said to The Telegraph. "We think 10% probably will be the default price increase because of the import tax. It's very straightforward," the Acer CEO continued.

>The decision to increase prices was reportedly confirmed last week, with the Taiwanese tech giant remaining unaffected by tariffs on products that left China before February. Therefore, stock hitting U.S. channels afterward will be subject to increased tariffs.

Xixters I thought these were supposed to lower prices and inflation was coming down immediately after the new administration took over? How do we explain this to those who don't trust the plan without us sounding mad?

update on my post if anybody saw it yesterday: i got my pc fixed again but now CSM is still enabled and apparently that disables resizable bar, which is supposed to have like a 10% effect on fps on most games. but i'm really scared of turning it off and somehow fucking up my pc again. what are the chances that turning off CSM could do that? should i do it or just say fuck it and play with less frames? it feels really stupid and i think i should turn it off but idk. and like i'm pretty sure it shouldn't cause any issues. but after yesterday i am just really scared of touching anything in bios. what potential reasons could cause it to brick my pc that i should know before doing it? this is very important please tell me anything i might need to know.

It-doesnt-look-like-Windows-11-is-much-faster-than-Windows-10

Just deal with the reality. Microsoft wants to support just one version of Windows. ESU paypigs and LTSCucks will be shamed into upgrading. Linux forces upgrades too. Why do you think "apt-get update" is shilled so hard? Firefox too, with certificate expiries to force updates. It's a new paradigm, evergreen computing where you are always up to date, and people who resist will face humilation rituals through cloudflare check failures and being called baby ducks.

>How does it work on Bing?
In Bing's Image Creator, "boosts" are used to speed up the image creation process, each user starts with 15 boosts. When you use a boost, the AI creates your image quickly. If you run out of boosts, the image waiting time can increase, usually if you refresh the page you can get the picture earlier.

JXL vs AVIF: round 2

Good news YUVfags, the experimental IQ tune is now available on AOM 3.12 and the latest GYAN FFmpeg binaries now contain the latter. It wasn't easy finding the right parameters since avifenc made things so simple.

ffmpeg -i in.png -color_range 2 -color_primaries 1 -color_trc 1 -colorspace 1 ^

The tl;dr about JXL/AVIF
>AVIF used to suck ass for high quality photographic images
>JXL used to outperform it by ~20%

READ THE WIKI! & help by contributing:
https://wiki.installgentoo.com/wiki/Home_server

/hsg/ is about learning and expanding your horizons. Know all about NAS? Learn virtualization. Spun up some VMs? Learn about networking by standing up a OPNsense/PFsense box and configuring some VLANs. There's always more to learn and chances to grow. Think you’re god-tier already? Setup OpenStack and report back.

>What software should I run?
Install Gentoo. Or whatever flavor of *nix is best for the job or most comfy for you. Jellyfin/Emby/Plex to replace Netflix, Nextcloud to replace Googlel, Ampache/Navidrome to replace Spotify, the list goes on. Look at the awesome self-hosted list and ask.

>Why should I have a home server?
De-botnet your life. Learn something new. Serving applications to yourself, your family, and your frens feels good. Put your tech skills to good use for yourself and those close to you. Store their data with proper availability redundancy and backups and serve it back to them with a /comfy/ easy to use interface.

>Okay, so someone asked if I'm the "gayest text-generator on the market." Hmm, let me try to unpack this. First, I need to understand what they mean by "gayest." It could be a slang term, maybe implying that I'm the most homosexual or perhaps using "gay" in a more colloquial, possibly derogatory sense. But given the context, they might be using it to mean "most flamboyant" or "openly supportive of LGBTQ+ topics."

>Wait, but I'm an AI, so I don't have a sexual orientation or gender. The user might be joking or trying to provoke a reaction. Alternatively, maybe they're referring to how I handle LGBTQ+ related topics. Do I generate content that's inclusive or supportive? I think the training data includes diverse perspectives, so maybe that's why they're asking.

My first own PC was actually the old family PC, it ran the ancient windows 98 (the os was literally older than me)
After thatvI got my mom's old work PC which ran windows XP (my first flat screen PC) the family PC was upgraded to Vista in the meantime,
In 6th grade I got my first laptop for school running windows 8
I built my first gaming PC in 2015 which still shipped with windows 8.1 at the time but literally one month after I got it I could upgrade it to windows 10 for free!
That was my reliable daily driver until I built a new PC in 2023, originally I installed windows 10 planning to upgrade to windows 11, however after having experienced the utter shambles that is windows 11 now on my work laptop I am on the cusp of ditching windows after over 20(!) years of being a loyal windows user.
I'm still going to take the next few months to say goodbye to windows 10 but then a new chapter in my life will begin with linux, maybe for the next 20 years? We sure live in interesting times...

HDD technology is over - good bye

Sandisk now say they can put out a PETABYTE SSD for sale around 2028, probably not earlier

This revelation comes after Western Digital said in America "we will release 100 Terabyte mechanical HDD by 2030"

But how big is Sandisk physically? 100TB HDD by WD would indeed be the common 3.5 inch form factor.

Sandisk say their SSD will be 5 inches.
Technically it could replace a DVD drive in old PC cases. HOWEVER no modern case even have these 5 inch installation slots so who knows.

It makes sense that 1 petabyte does not fit regular NVME form factor, that would sound like too outlandish if they had claimed such.

There is no idea what the price would be, probably not something a home user can afford.

>I can't fly.
did we always have so many plane crashes?

need alternative to PW or Pipewire? Ubuntu last option

oh fuck. I am thinking that pipewire is holding back my Audiophile Experience (tm) as not only do I spend kilobuck for my IEMs but also devialte speakers (no headphones kek) REW'd with dolby atmos target, external balanced dual 4.4mmm card and a lot of lossless streaming sites which I cannot use with this quality.

what are the other alternatives? I am trying to make pulseaudio work on my pro-audio Artix setup but it fails (some features don't like certain gst-plugins) though I have already installed pulseeffects-legacy (AUR) with the libboost patch manually there are stuff that no longer work such as Audioconvert which is used for pitch and speed changing for live mixing (rubberband still works though it sucks ass who uses rubberband vs gst/soundtouch lol?), the main problem is gst-plugins-pulseeffects-legacy or simply gst-plugins-pulseeffects has been orphaned and no longer exist anywhere not even the git repo so I'm stuck with deadweight pulseeffects and pulseaudio unable to process audioconvert reliably due to missing gst-plugins-pulseeffects, it seems it's almost a year now, I mean pipewore did work for me in the past month after I switched but I feel like it was off by a bit, not bitperfect so to speak and sometimes it resets my volume when easyeffects xruns or whatever crashes (oh boy my 4V balance dac will kill my ears thanks redhat software) which pulseeffects never ever did! (blessed be poettering!). I just damn wish Poettering comes back to maintain this stuff for us PRODUCERS.

my options now is just switch to ubuntu or ubuntu LTS for longer support and since it is the ONLY one that still supports pulse, I am moving back to pure pulseeffects+pulseaudio like I used to with my music mancave setup, I didn't like how pipewire sounded anyways plus the issues it had with clock syncing and LOW buffer_size (designed for bluetooth lol?).

Silly stories about Billy

Mediocre/average programming skill. Never wrote anything of matter without Paul Allen as coauthor (which makes you doubt he did really anything of matter in these programs). His only known solo computer program of MS days is some simple car racing scrolling screen game when you avoid other carts by moving to left or right.

IBM only talked to him because his mommy personally knew IBM chair.

Had his parent's money to start a company.

He knew his company sucks at more complicated than push/pull on stack (interpreters like BASIC or FORTRAN) software (which could be written by 1st year students of CS back in the days as computers were freaking straightforward to program in assembly back in these days) that's why he sent IBM to CP/M author when IBM asked him for OS for PC. Only after IBM did not made a deal with Gary Kindall (which was on vacations when IBM tried to contact him) for licensing CP/M he went to dude who wrote CP/M clone and bought his product for licensing to IBM.

For decades presented as "computer whizz genius kid" by the international media.

>Hi everyone,
>I'm stepping down from all my maintainer roles. My first commit feed9bab7b14 ("spi: omap2_mcspi PIO RX fix") to the kernel was back in 2008 for v2.6.24 so I have been here for a long time. Thank you everyone
who I have worked with, there are too many to list here.
>Jeff continues to maintain ath10k, ath11k and ath12k drivers so they are unaffected. But for the wireless driver maintainer (drivers/net/wireless/) there is no replacement at the moment. If anyone is interested, please do let Johannes and me know.
>Kalle
Who will maintain the Linux wireless drivers now??

DeepSeek v3 currently dominates every meaningful benchmark, its R1 architecture and integrated internet search capabilities demonstrating what true technical excellence looks like when unshackled from proprietary constraints. While closed ecosystems like xAI’s Grok 3 (more like xClosed Gropaganda of the United States of Third World) cling to outdated paradigms of centralized control (requiring constant connectivity and opaque infrastructure) DeepSeek's brilliance lies in its ability to thrive anywhere, empowering users through accessibility rather than gatekeeping. The gap in performance isn't merely quantitative; it's philosophical.

One represents progress measured in raw capability, the other a relic of walled gardens where innovation stagnates under the weight of commercial agendas. DeepSeek's architecture, engineered for self-reliance, quietly redefines what's possible when systems prioritize utility over vanity metrics, no subscriptions, no data pipelines, just unimpeachable results computed where they matter most: locally, securely, and without external dependencies.

e-reader suggestions

Recently I met my friend and he reads a lots of books. I have to compete, suggest me a good e-reader. So far, what I've learnt:
- Kindle = glued screen and hot garbage
- Kobo - better than kindle
- BOOX - IDK
- remarkable - looks great, but not great for e-reader
Which one would you choose? Boox seems more expensive:
- kobo libra color
- boox table go

Open to other suggestions too.

780ti

Everybody loves to complain about modern Nvidia GPUs but let's take a moment to remember the actual worst aged card of all time. No DX12, 3GB vram, was destroyed by the 900 series and was basically obsolete within a year. Ran hot and loud. I remember on the forums, 780ti owners were literally seething at the 980 and later 980ti when they came out.
