So mine just arrived yesterday and I thought I'd make a thread dedicated to it since so many seem to be interested in one. Ask me anything about it.
I'll answer the first two obvious questions: Yes it has a case on and I bought it for $110.
What version of android does it come with?
Lollipop 5.1

Does the phone support 128gb micro sd cards? I'm thinking about getting one but specifications online say 64gb is the max it supports.

Hi /g/, I'm a lazy guy who don't want to work too much. Also, I've got some chance, I'm not really a consumerist-whore, so all I spent is on primary needs like food. But today, I would like to do something for other people mainly, I would like to open a GNU/Linux club (LUG) in my local town, I can see with the mayor and try to getting a little room somewhere in the city to host the club, but also, If I want some money to buy shit for the club, I must work on the side, so as a computer technician (I'm not skilled enough to be called a programmer, I'm...

I would like to make a Linux User Group in my town. Like doing stuff for free software, telling people what GNU/Linux is, etc... And I want this to be my job.
It's better to try it than staying a NEET, isn't it ? But today I don't really know why I post it on /g/, but I need advice, I think.

What's the coolest UMPC?
>>53921897
Been trying to find a decent netbook / umpc thats 10 inches or under for a while now that doesn't cost a fortune. Haven't really found anything though, even on shit like Aliexpress there is like 3 options that are all shit or listed improperly. Unfortunately the market is all for shitty tablets now that have shitty multitasking and flimsy ass keyboards that snap on and off :/

this MIGHT turn out alright
I'd just like a super premium slide to unlock UMPC made of like aluminium
The Zenfone 2, sorta.
You can run windows 7/10 inside a virtual machine since it has an x86 SoC.
I recommend you get the $300 4GB RAM/64GB ROM+ micorsd variant if you want to run windows 7/10 on it.
Do you calibrate your monitor or keep it at factory settings?
9300K makes everything look blueish
6500K looks okay
sRGB looks too dark
My monitor ain't very good so I have to stick with 6500K.
>>53921854
Not autistic enough to buy calibration equipment, wish I had the money for it though
>>53921854
Calibrate every 4 months or so with windas.
How did you use probability theory in your programming today?
I dont.

Good for creating auto-generated content.

what content are you generating with markov chains?
What does /g/ think of these new chip debit/credit cards?
I'm not a fan, it takes way too long at stores and you can't slide them even if they have the magnetic strip.

How do we get Gentoo onto this thing?
The slowness is due to the merchants cheaping out on their network. I've been to Europe, pin & chip tales 2 seconds there.
IT'S HAPPENING

What I currently use :3
First time building a computer. Money isn't really an issue, but I feel like this could be nearly the same with cheaper parts or I simply picked some silly shite. How hard did I fuck this up ?

don't get overclocking capable cpu and mobo if you're uncertain if you want/need to overclock.
the intel processor will suffice enough for the coming years to not bottleneck your gpu with directx12 heading.
this also means no 25$ cooler required. 120$ could be saved by that
What's the legality of using a photo from another website on your own website? They can only sue if it's copyrighted, correct?
I'm asking because I'm throwing together a quick website for my dad's small business and just would like to just use some pictures off of google image search.
Why don't you just find a copy left image there's plenty out there.
>>53921285
Ask apple, they steal every wallpaper in every iOS release.
Enjoy your lawsuit. They're all copyrighted by default unless they specifically say that they're public domain. You need permission.
>Apple won't allow 4chan app. Period.
>Google removed Clover from App Store because /a/ was enabled by default
>although /a/ is SFW, moderation is shit, and NSFW stuff gets posted and remain accessible for a long time all the time
>Reddit comes out with their own apps
>NSFW subreddits are accessible
>Apple and Google both accept the app
dat sum double standard

It's den Jews

Fix the submit button not working properly when in advanced post mode, will you?
Are the nsfw reddits enabled by default? That was why clover got pulled
Advice for "guiding" my professional development please.
I finished college last year and started looking for a job, there's this fucking asshole that I worked for in an internship that has been talking shit about me when asked for references. I don't want to get into that but let's just say that even though I made mistakes, if he needs to make up lies to make me look worse, then it wasn't actually that bad. This made my job hunt harder.
I ended up taking a frontend dev gig at a hipster startup. I like everything about this job, the...

I'm not exactly experienced when it comes down to professional advice, but you could probably start learning things yourself with courses and books in preparation for your next job. After you feel comfortable enough, you could start searching for your next gig, something backend related or completely different than web dev even and you'd still have X experience in what you're already doing as a safety pillow in case something goes bad. I get that part of not exactly liking what you're doing, but kinda have to do it, but the reality is most jobs are web related (I'm from Europe too, not Western though) and at least it's nice to have a well paying (I suppose yours is) job even if it becomes tedious from time to time.
I'm in a similar situation grinding through a job where I am overqualified. My previous boss was a fucking imbecile and blamed everyone else for his mistakes. All you can do is leave a good impression on your current employer and be there long enough so people know you can commit. If you need to, go outside of your job description to let your employer know you are capable of much more. Be a good goy and make them need you.
>>53921122
I haven't gotten the impression that pigeonholing is a big issue in software development. It should be fine.
