What's the best way to get into computers? Any good guides or books you reccomend? I know the basics but mainly need to know how to fix/mod a PC. Basically things that are more advanced than just building a PC.
I don't know much about hardware, but I can give you a few pro tips on the software side if you want. But, since you're already here, you'll learn most of what I could write just by lurking on /g/.
>>54691584
Thanks. I'm getting familiar with CPUs and gpus. Motherboards are newgrounds for me. But Iam familiar with Logicalincrements.

hey /g/ i need some help as i'm ripping my hair out trying to fix this. so this happened like 3 days ago and it keeps reoccurring every 3 hours or so. if i try to click and drag on my desktop or hover over an icon, these black squares show up on my wallpaper. any idea on a fix? (already reinstalled graphics drivers 3 times)
>>54691108
That image is from the post on tomshardware where the guy suggests you to run SFC /SCANNOW and that fixes the issue.
>>54691383
Too lazy to take my own picture
Tried sfc /scannow and it found nothing wrong. I dont know of anything else to do
>>54691459
Ok. Few questions first.
OS version?
Legal?
Updated?
Antivirus you are using?
What's the graphic card you have and driver version that is installed?
I know this is stupid but have you tried changing the wallpaper or remove it completely?
Escape the systemd cancer. Try distros like Devuan, all you need from debian without the cuckery.
https://devuan.org/
Remember that Devuan repositories are currently loaded with requests. WE MORE NEED MIRRORS!
Don't listen to BSD cucks and poettering trolls.
Why we don't want systemD:
"systemd is what appears to be intentionally attempting to fragment the FOSS community by inserting bloated high velocity corporate code that by design makes itself as intrusive in terms of dependencies as possible.
This is a very bad precedent for FOSS...

Yay, another Linux schism!

>it has a massive attack surface connected to the network
It's funny though,most of the recently discovered vulnerablities in Linux stem back to the pre-systemd era.You know,when everybody supposedly didn't have their heads up their asses?

Welcome to /fglt/. We are always open to users of all levels, including absolute beginners.
There are four ways to try GNU/Linux, you can:
0) Install a GNU/Linux OS on a VM (Virtual Machine/VirtualBox) for "safety purposes"
1) Use the Live ISO directly without installing anything, that way, you can get a "full GNU/Linux experience".
2) Dual-boot GNU/Linux with Windows/Mac (recommended if you want to learn more about GNU/Linux)
3) Go balls...

We find that the attack is effective with an estimated success rate of 45–98% and expeditious with the first drive connected in less than six minutes.”

I'd do that as well. See if there's something that might peak my interest, then format it and start using it as it would be mine. lol
>>54690778
I'd plug it in. I'd start up a live Linux distro and see if there's anything on it I can use to identify the owner. If not, then I'd deliver it to lost and found.
>>54690778
I would plug it in as well. If its a shitty Chinese one that just pops open, I might have a look inside it first for shits and giggles before plugging it in.
Why isn't Linus, the inventor of Linux, on the sticky instead of that fat fraud?

Is there anything more disgusting that says "I'm poor" then seeing someone with an iPhone?
Notice how they always cuck themselves with a 24 month contract because they can't afford to buy outright?
Pathetic.
I laugh at anyone with an iPhone.
good for you OP

Fuck off, retard.
That's the whitest name I've ever seen but I can't tell what kind of non-white she is.
Also recruiters are glorified boxes literally a computer can do their job.
