I'm done with smartphones.
I've never liked them anyway. But now after breaking the umpteenth one I'm completely over them and decided to go back to "feature phones". What are some good-looking simple phones that don't break? A very basic internet access could be a plus, but definitely not mandatory.
Is the Caterpillar B100 the ultimate feature phone?

I've dropped my moto x and have had it for almost 3 years and it still runs perfect. I'm going to try rooting it soon and it will run even better.
Start using better devices m8
Why do you keep breaking them ? Wtf?
I'll never go back to using a dumphone

My Dell 2407WFPb fried in a power surge. No big, I pull it open look at the boards and it's obviously the main board. About 50% of the capacitors popped.
Problem is the connector from the board to the LCD (?) is not a ribbon cable but just fucking loose wires and the insulation on all the wires is completely powdered. Basically touching them makes the entire insulation case snow onto the board. The wires are mostly bare now.
So my eBay replacement board is pictured as coming with a set of these wires, but what I'm wondering is how common is this and...

Nope, electricity has been used for over 2500 years
I understand it's the game of life but I don't understand much about it, how does it work?
Why was it chosen to be the emblem for hackers?
Because it's basically the first self-sustained moving "life" in the game of life. It's also the smallest.
There, now you can use the symbol and pretend you're part of an elite club. Have fun feeling snide.

I see that. I've read up on it but I can't figure out the algorithm. What makes it tick?

Wow, this thread slipped off the front page fast!

Using the word combination "desktop thread" in the OP makes the thread autosage.
>G.Fast is the technology in question, and it comesfrom Israeli chipmaker Sckipio. G.Fast can currently deliver download and upload speeds of 750Mbps, or 50 times faster than what your ISP likely offersyou right now. Next year, G.Fast speeds will double thanks to a new generation of chips,CNN Moneyreports. That means you could enjoy up to 1.5Gbps download and upload speeds, which is faster thanGoogle Fiber.

They are the best option here and have quite good customer service. (The other guys max speed is half this and costs $10/mo more.)

Long story short, my friend asked me to forge a gamestop receipt for him. I thought it was simple to just photoshop it but it's too difficult for me. Anyone know or have a link to a psd file to edit a receipt or generator? Thank you..
sent ;)
>>54608363
you'd need the matching Epson receipt printer and paper type.
don't they use custom receipt paper too?

School does not offer CS, and i'm not great at math anyway. I would want to go on to become a Software Developer.

Turn back now.

>i'm not great at math
You best fix that before you start.
>>54608210
software development is about problem solving, which you probably lack if you aren't great at math.
I've been playing around with programming for a long time but I've never really tried building a real substantial project. I want to build a shitty web forum from the ground up, complete with secure user authentication and and all that. What set of languages and tools should I be using for the backend? Django? Rails? Node? ASP? PHP? Is there anything I need besides the main web framework and a database of some sort? there are so many choices and I have no idea what would be the best to go with.
>>54608076
Python with Flask
>>54608076
Rails or node if you'd like an overall stable project life cycle
Php if you want easy beginnings leading to hell
Asp if you want aids
>>54608076
perl and mojolicious
