What is the best screen resolution and size for getting actual work done and why is it 5120 x 2880 at 27"?
Well It seems like that's the best resolution to be retarded.

They probably just forgot to put them in the box at the chinese sweatshop factory.
Are Dell laptops good, /g/?
I don't much care for customization or anything. I might be interested in dual-booting with some Linux distro ( and I don't know if Dells are any good for this ).
I've had the M3800 and currently using the XPS 15, they're good if you dont buy the crappy consumer versions. Sadly you gotta pay to get good quality from Dell.
>>55558948
they're built shitty but they work. if you drop it you're fucked. Don't buy cheap. Expensive dells arent bad but anything under $400 is gonna be terrible.
I'd go with HP if you're on a budget and want something that's a bit sturdier. Otherwise yeah, go with a dell.

>>55558995
I have a budget of ~$450. I've heard Dells work and that's why I looked into them, but I didn't know if I should trust reviews or not.
Also, I've heard HPs are really shitty in that they don't allow you to do things like dual-booting and they often contain bloatware, how true is this?
Without googling, give me your best guess what these inbuilt core functions of a certain programming language do:

>>55558928I know Lisp has weird names. I hate most of them too. I think the worst one is "mapcan" which sounds like an attempt at a bad mapcar pun.
>>55558928
No, because only crap programming languages styles use abbreviated names.

It says here in your resume that you don't use d7 for computer diagnostics. Care to explain?

lol. I'm not going to do this job your way. You want to do it so bad do it yourself.

I'm a sysadmin, we don't generally interact with individual PCs like that.
Why are you not just reimaging your PCs on demand? You don't seriously mean you pay someone money to run reverse-metasploit on every PC that gets a virus or other boo-boo do you?
Sort out your imaging and malware prevention practices, this shit's embarrassing.
So Windows 10 doesn't have movie maker.
What should I get instead?

Hey /g/,
I just recently got laid off from my part time McJob ($11/hour though). I'm tired of working hourly junk jobs, and I have a few grand in my savings. I was thinking about going to get some Info. Technology certifications. I've been building computers since I was a kid, and I've always enjoyed working with computers and helping people figure out how to do the same.
My question is which IT certs are worth getting? I see a lot of them out there like Comptia, and Cisco, but I'm not sure which ones are worth getting to get a real career. I've...

All of the close personal friends I've asked that work in the industry have been super dismissive when I've asked them, and I'm not sure why. They always switch the topic over to anime or something else, which I guess is because they work with this stuff all day.
slightly shameful bump
Abridge this to solid 1-2 sentences.then post it in another thread that seems relevant to the topic.
>>55559196
I didn't see another relevant thread anon.
The solid 2 sentences were in my tl;dr, at least I thought so.
"Which IT certs are the best bang for the buck? Which certs will actually help with getting a career, as opposed to a job, in as short an amount of time as possible?"

What drum machine/sequencer do you use, /g/?
>>55558559
had a pretty nice Korg EMX/ESX-1 set, had to sold it unfortunately.
>>55558559
I have a emu command station
kinda big
the sounds are quite outdated now but its pretty good programing wise
If I could id probably get a Machinedrum.
or a RYTM if i was going more lo-fi
>>55558559
I usually program MIDI files and then use something like Superior Drummer, but then again i don't make electronic music.
What is a drum sequencer used for? Just another way to accomplish the same thing?

the nvidia gt720m from my laptop often reaches temperatures up to 90-95 celsius degrees while playing games like CSGO or fallout new vegas, are these temps safe or should i worry that one day the contacts between the video chip and the motherboard will melt?
the laptop is about 1 year old and is clean with no dust at all in his cooling system. the CPU rarely reaches 70-71degrees in full load, but the GPU is like a fucking oven.
It's a gaming laptop, temps are normal. But your card Is still taking damage, since a card shouldn't really run at 90-95. But since its a gaming laptop, that's expected.
>>55559287
tfw my cpu reaches 90 degrees in full load
and i have a tower
>>55558485
I have the same GPU in my laptop but it never went above 86 while gaming (light stuff like CSGO and LOL). I did a small OC on shaders and memory once and stressed it to see if it was stable. It was at 92 degrees for the better part of a hour.
Temps like these will shorten it's lifespan but will not make it blow in your face.
Why does every carrier have incompatible Voice over LTE (VoLTE) implementation?
Phones bought unlocked can't use VoLTE because the carrier's VoLTE system implementation is all different, and carriers have banned any phone that they didn't sell themselves from accessing VoLTE because there might be incompatibilities.
Why haven't FCC and other telecom regulators forced carriers to make their VoLTE systems compatible?
>>55558446
Forgive me if I'm being stupid but if I'm using VoIP applications like whatsapp/messenger/skype voice calls, over a 4G LTE connection, is that the same thing as what you're talking about? Because I have an unlocked Oneplus One and it werks fine. That said I don't live in the US where you have weird telecoms standards.
>>55558446
Why is America so shit for VoIP in general? 4G in Europe works everywhere perfect in every country I've been in.
>>55558446
Because it is an ITU standard which are always fucking gay. Why not just use SIP over LTE data?
I need to spoof my Androids lollipop moto X web browser to be a Windows 10™ firefox.
I need to download Adobe Premier Pro™ or Adobe CC™ but have no internet out where I am. But have unlimited data and 4G. Adobe stupid website won't let me download it unless I'm on a desktop.

wrong

the license forbids you from removing copyright
This should only apply to the copyright in the start of the files correct? As in code made to display the copyright can be freely removed?
