it's an ugly design, why couldn't apple just keep making their original nice looking phones?

so?

Probably because some management fuck said to the design team "the classy design is too classy, make something fresh"

fucking why?
>>53841518
why would you do things the normal, sensible, oh-that-seems-obvious way, when you can do it the hard, rtfm, if-you-don't-like-it-fix-it-yourself way?
/g/, I have a newbie question which I can't find a clear answer online so I'll place it here in hope someone will kindly explain it to me.
What is PPI?
From my understanding (and from what I always thought it meant), PPI means Pixel per Inch. So if we, for example, have a 5,5 inch phone with a 1920x1080 resolution we can calculate how many pixels are in a screen by doing 1920x1080 which will equal 2 073 600 pixels. So we have 2 073 600 pixels in a screen and if we divide this by 5,5 inches we will get 377 018. And this will mean that in each inch we will...

Oh Lord I'm bumping this because it hurts.

It is pixels per inch, not pixels per square inch.

Can someone enlighten me on what the fuck does the "star" and text next to a relationship in UML mean?
RTFM

Don't want to waste time learning about bullshit like UML. OOP is a meme as well

DACs are audiophile shit that i swore a long time ago i would never use
>>53840806
DAC = The audio jew. it should be avoided at all costs.
Is there a way to remove 4chan custom css? I placed some css code in the settings menu and now there is no save settings button to allow me to reset the settings. I deleted all 4chan cookies, but this did not work. Where are these settings stored in Firefox?
>>53840787
Дoлбaёб))))
>>53840787
My 4chan looks like this btw, I need to get rid of the custom css, but I cannot save the changes i make now.
Open this to import my settings, should clear the CSS. I exported my settings from a browser where I don't use 4chan, so should be very much default settings

Lets talk about the free software dating scene
As a twenty year old single male I think it’s very hard to find a girl who’s actually interested in free software. I’ve had girls jokingly ask to “Netflix and chill” but when I tell her that I don’t use Netflix since Netflix requires proprietary software to stream content, they stop talking to me. And worse if they do stay they think I’m weird since I blocked google IP’s in my host file and we can’t even watch youtube.
I can’t ever seem to get girls to come over to my place and I can’t text them...

I get it that you block Google and don't use Netflix, but not using SMS is just over the top.
The fact is the entire technology stack of cellular phones is compromised, and you're fooling yourself if you think you can be safe with a phone. What am I talking about specifically? Look up CCC's lecture on SS7 (track, manipulate ... ). On top of that, all the common RF transreceivers in phones run proprietary code, and they've found attacks to disable the phones with x-byte messages (I think...

ITT: Technology that is called retro, but is not really retro. wtf, I never saw images of this in the 1960's. That's like making a "retro" 4K HDR TV
Retro is a word for style.
If it said vintage, your anger would be correct.
>>53840051
I looked up "vintage hot dog toaster" Same exact thing.
Imagine cleaning the grease out of this abomination.
I need some recommendations on file hosting services, /g/. Here is a list of my preferred features:
1. Long (90+ days) file retention; forever is obviously preferred
2. At least 50 gb of free space
3. Must allow large (5+ gb) files
4. Remote uploading from another URL is optional, but preferred
I don't care how unknown or shady the site seems; in fact, if they ignore or react slowly to DMCA requests, that's even better. So far, I've identified Mega and Clicknupload as decent candidates.

Host your own file server
Dropbox (if you pay forward the $9)

So reddit released this new chatroom thing that I was fucking around with and writing automated troll scripts for. All the fun and games were going well until some asshole went out of his way to doxx me.
I dug up all his info, but apparently he's some high ranking research professor at Colorado State University. I'm concerned that he might try to get me back by contacting my school. Also he seemed like a pretty cool guy too when going through his info, almost like we could have been friends if the circumstances were different.

>What are the pros and cons of outing him?
pros: none, he can discredit the entire situation if worse comes to worst
cons: he keeps track of you and ddos's your router at random for years... I guess?
