Salam Alikom everyone,
So I got this old laptop from a family member. It's an HP 430 G5 with an i5 7th gen, 12 GB RAM and a 500 GB SSD. I also have a 2 TB hard drive for storage.

I want to run something on it that doesn't affect the performance too much. I tried Umbrel OS but it didn't click for me, so what OS would you recommend?

I've considered running Debian on it and then something to manage it, but I don't know tbh. My main server is running TrueNAS, but it would eat too many resources on this laptop.

What I'll mainly use the laptop for:

Family backup for photos and videos (Immich)
Password manager (Vaultwarden)
Rclone to back up the data to the cloud
DNS ad blocker (AdGuard)

I asked the Ai for recommendation and it give me ZimaOS and Debian ?

So, we are thinking of getting a BYD for someone in my family. We are looking at different options—both hybrid and fully electric (EV)—so does anybody have any experience with BYD? I don’t want to just jump on a trend, like what happened with MG where everyone is now avoiding them and they're closing down their showrooms.

So, how is your experience? How is the performance of the car, the quality, and the maintenance? Is it hard to find parts for these cars, and so on?

Thanks in advance for the help, everyone!

We are looking at the Han and seal 08

Hello everyone,

How well does DeepSeek perform for reverse engineering and application analysis? DeepSeek sometimes refuses prompts, but bypassing those restrictions is easy. During advanced coding or tool development, DeepSeek struggles frequently.

Is there a way to improve DeepSeek code generation and reverse engineering results? Should I switch to another AI? Please suggest an alternative similar to DeepSeek with low refusal rates for these tasks.

Hello everyone, so I had this interview with a company (I cannot name it because I may get sued).

So I walk in as any new grad student. We start the interview, they ask me the generic questions, and then we start the real questions about my technical background and skills. I ACE it. After an hour and a half of the interview, I finish and they ask me if I have any questions for them.

While they were collecting their stuff in front of me, I was thinking, if you want to leave, why even ask me that?

So I stop them and start asking questions about the quality of working for them, what I’m getting, and so on. Every time I ask about something, they answer with, “We give a good salary. What do you want more than that?”

So I ask a question about overtime pay, because one of their questions was about me and my ability to work overtime regularly and if I can handle it. I asked how the overtime payment works and if it is going to be onsite or in an office.

So the CEO replied to me, “You are asking too many questions. You should be grateful to work for us. We are paying a good salary for you. What do you want more than that? You should be thankful we are interviewing you.”

I honestly didn’t know what to reply. I just froze there. The HR was quick to see the situation was getting out of hand, so she stopped me, thanked me for my time, and told me to leave.

A few days later, the HR called me and told me I got the role and they wanted to discuss some paperwork to finish. To be honest, I wasn’t excited to work there and I didn’t want to go, so I said OK and closed the line. I didn’t think about going, but my family pressured me to go there.

I met with the HR, and she started talking about the paperwork and everything else. I asked her about what the CEO said, and she replied, “You should just ignore that and focus on the job. It doesn’t really matter,” and so on.

So I asked her if this was going to be a regular thing with the CEO, insulting me because I ask questions. She started saying it doesn’t matter and I should think about how much this job pays me.
In my inner thoughts, I was like, yeah no, my dignity is above the money.

I told her I’m not interested in the job and I’m thankful for her time. She called me a few days later asking if I was really rejecting the offer, and I told her I don’t want to work for people who insult others because they don’t want to answer some questions.

After that, some people heard about this and started calling me crazy for rejecting a job like that, saying I should lower myself to have a job.

I honestly don’t think I did anything wrong, but I’m still wondering why people treat others like that.

I’m Omani. The CEO was Omani, the HR was Omani, the people asking me technical questions were Indian, and I don’t know about the rest honestly. But Non of them called him on the insult they just accepted it , to be honest at that moment I know some people can be bought with money
