Piston 3s sound awesome but leak so much sound. Are there any Xiaomi earphones that don't do that?
Meanwhile I'm listening through KZ ATE-Ss on the train and the foam tips are blocking sound out pretty well. Might order a backup set.

Hey guys, I'm a Debian user, and Debian is my first Linux based OS and I'm really enjoying it.
Alot of my friends though who are Arch and Ubuntu users tell me that Debian is used more for servers instead of desktop usage and that I should switch, but I already have everything set up and working on Debian.
What would I benefit from jumping to Arch? I had trouble installing it at first, but this was before Debian and now I'm confident I can breeze through the installation with minimal effort.
My friend told me that Debian packages are older, but they are more stable than other releases and that getting the most up to date software is essential on a desktop. I can't say I agree fully, but I can see he has a point.
What does /g/ recommend?
>>54697261
Don't jump to Arch, if your happy and it works then you don't need to switch
>>54697261
Only switch if you feel like you need to. Debian's GNOME packages are too old for me, so I'm using Ubuntu and the GNOME Staging PPA to resolve that; it was the reason I switched from two years of Debian usage in 2013(?).
Do you know about pinning? If not, read about it.
You can have a mix of stable and testing packages. Or testing and unstable. Also, apt's -t switch allows you to specify from which repository (stable, testing or unstable) to install packages, so if you need the latest version of something you can get it.
Debian can be just as bleeding edge as Arch, but without the inherent instability of the system. Debian isn't called the 'universal operating system' for nothing; it is run on desktops, servers, supercomputers, phones, Boeing aircraft, the ISS, etc.
You made a great choice, OP.

Let's continue to investigate the used market of workstation and server hardware for components which might find themselves into the PCs and projects of /g/.
Last time we were all looking at the Supermicro X8DT6-F motherboard. This is a dual socket LGA 1366 board which is going for under $100 on ebay right now.
The spec sheet for it is available on Supermicro's website
http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/QPI/5500/X8DT6-F.cfm?IPMI=Y%20;SAS=N
Everything looks good here but there is one thing to note. The chipset is Intel® 5520 (Tylersburg). This is a server chipset, and if you look at the PCI-E information you can see it is reflected there:

A category I've been looking at are the CPU coolers.
There's the whole market of consumer coolers you can look into, but it may be possible to find used enterprise coolers for a lower price which will match the performance.
And there is always the option to use the stock coolers.
You can get two Supermicro heatsink+fan coolers here for less than $40

Then there is also this company Dynatron which makes CPU coolers and other components which seems to be popular. Their parts are cheaper than the Supermicro equivalents.

As long as they have a warrant, and as long as they are only using their spyware to spy on the individuals the warrant permits them to spy on, I see nothing wrong with this.
Whats Microsoft Edge like? Just upgraded to Windows 10. Is it decent or should I use Firefox/Chrome instead?
Firefox. Chrome is for kids.

Chrome. Firefox is for furries.
The Chakra js engine Edge uses is pretty cool, but the browser is still just IE with a new name.

Hello /g/
>It's been a little bit over a day since Oculus started rolling out new DRM for its software, but it's already backfired, making pirating the company's games easier than ever.
>A software update Oculus released on Friday, which included new DRM, killed one of the VR community's favorite hacks. Revive, as the user-made software is called, allowed people to play games exclusive to the Oculus Rift on competing VR headsets like Valve's and HTC's Vive.

this. to be really honest, as a person who loves gnome, I'm just staying away from fedore just because of its name and using the crappy ubuntu gnome.
does lubuntu consume less RAM or I am missing something?
Why wouldn't it? That's kinda the point of a system intended to be lite.

Whoa, it sure has been awhile since I have seen XP.
I wonder how 7 and 10 stack up on average?
