why is this even allowed?
ive noticed after 3 years of owning this CB3, its been slowly having more and more issues, and never hardware problems, its always chromeOS falling apart
every time i update, the taskbar gets stuck on the bottom of the screen and i cant move it til another update comes, the b channel keeps de-activating itself and moving me back to stable, the material design extensions page never works right
its just little shit you know? this is why i moved away from windows, to get away from tiny little bugs all the time
now ive got tiny little bugs again on my once perfect linux distro
where the shit are my desktop icons
by the way, why cant i type b3ta
thats stupid

If it's your first time with linux maybe you shouldn't choose fucking arch linux.

Wow, it's fucking nothing.
Why do people/websites use the terms "i5" or "i7" when talking about purchasing or recommending laptops or PC builds? The terms are meaningless without the generation and # of cores. People hear those little identifiers and get so impressed. "Woah, you have an i7? That's sick!" Are people just idiots?

Yes

Until recently I believed all these microsoft shills are just some troll wannabe /v/ kiddies but I was completely Wrong.
Microsoft has been deploying Evangelists to support developers[1] since a long time.
Although a leaked document explicitly mentions that they are not here to support developers, they are here to shill microsoft[2] and undermine [3] other companies.
These are not just trolls. These are professional shills.

Apple does this too to a greater degree.

Riddle me this: let's say RAM prices are 10$/GB, for 10k one can get 1TB of RAM. Of course, you need to fit it into a box + some extra stuff to handle all that, but essentially you have
1. very simple
2. in memory, lightning fast
3. cheap
computing base setup for 1 TB chunks
Why don't we have computers available like this? Why Big Data platforms are a thing again?
Because it's $10,000 per TB you fag
16 @ $56 x 64GB = 1024
Assuming you could find a motherboard with 64 RAM slots, you can get 1TB of RAM for $3584
>>54758973
peanuts, big data offerings start at a couple of grands, hw cost is always the cheapest.
If you have to hire just 1 additional person for you super distributed complex algorithm and infrastructure to operate, you are looking at ~60k per year. Multiply that number according to your consultants.
Why is everything on /g/ the most banal shit that can be talked about? It seems like consumer whore general but for poor people. So everything above a certain price point (e.g. apple) gets called shit while everything cheap (chink shit, Linux distros) is endlessly talked about as if your free time is worthless and you have tonnes of it.
I mean srsly... installing an OS so you can set the size of your taskbar to the nearest pixel... who gives a fuck?
Caring about browsers or mobile app launchers? lolwut?

how does the price of a an item determine the banality of discussing it? also newfag go, if you stick around long enough you'll see why /g/entooman are how they are. most of them are coders, so the most efficient products are sent to the front (arch Linux, MacBook Pro, self made towers) and the clearly overpriced shit is thrown away (gaming laptops, overpriced smart phones)
you're just new and wanna bitch and flood the catalog with shit posting.

My water cooler dripped into the top of my psu. It was like that for about 20 minutes before I realized what was making my computer so laggy. I unplugged everything and wiped it off. Should I be worried? If it fried my gpu/cpu my computer would have shut off instead of continuing to operate laggy right? Pic related
psu: 750 Watt Enermax LEPA G750-MAS 80 PLUS Gold

if it was water you are ok,if it was oil you are fucked

fucked how? it was oil
>>54758583
kek really bro? It's fucking oil, it won't evaporate and if it lagged the shit out of your computer it's probably already damaged components.
What do you guys think about gaming on a laptop?
I'm a CS major, will be a junior this fall, and I need a new laptop for coding during and between classes. I also want to be able to play games on it. I have a $2k-2.3k budget.

Buy a gaming computer for 1k, and then buy a slightly shittier laptop for 1k.
You can get all those specs for half the price on a desktop. Gaming on a laptop is also pretty ass because battery life tends to be <4 hours if you're doing anything intensive.

Go to the library and pick up chicks brah
Really fucking retarded. You can build an FM2+ desktop for like $400 with a graphics card that can handle most modern games on medium-high 1080p settings.
For that same performance you need to blow $1,000+ on a fucking "gaming" laptop that has a permanent CPU, GPU, and constantly throttles because of the tiny fans.

What benefits does OpenStack have over ESXi?
My work is considering going from ESXi 5.5 to some sort of OpenStack setup, and they have no idea what benefits it has or how to migrate from ESXi.
They've got <100 VMs and 5 fair sized storage arrays, what does /g/ think? I have to give reasoning for either staying on VMware or OpenStack.
Also, what OpenStack distro is good?
>they have no idea what benefits it has or how to migrate from ESXi
then they shouldnt be considering doing that in the first place. sounds like they simply cannot afford vmware, and in this case you pay to play with the big dogs.
esxi works great (we use over 1400 guests at my shop), and if you are pure windows then hyper-v works great as well. esxi works much better with linux guests
the only other alternative is MAYBE kvm, but when you are in business going with something just because its open source doesnt mean shit, because...

For what purpose? Openstack is used to build a private cloud and can sit on top of Vsphere setups. I doesn't even implement HA directly.
