I can't find a decent OS. It seems that all of them are shit.

Only Android Desktop can save us.
macOS is the best OS. I feel sorry for Pajeets™ and GNU/Pajeets since they are missing out on the world's most advanced desktop Operating System.

Have you actually tried anything but Windows so far? By tried I mean more than half a day.
People who are OK paying a small premium for:
Higher build quality
Higher quality software
Better looking devices

Apple is a brand like any other. It used to be special.
I love apples!
So I've got a Toshiba Canvio Basics 500gb HDD.
I need it to work with PS4 and with file sizes of more than 4GB, therefore EXFAT is my only option. The problem is my XP computer does not recognise the drive in EXFAT.
Originally I couldn't even format it as EXFAT, but by using a PC on Windows 7 I was able to do this, but having plugged it back into the XP PC it now doesn't recognise the drive.
Any ideas highly appreciated!
Thanks :)

for what purpose
Use MBR instead of GUID

Cool, I guess, but there's probably a lot of overhead.. And bugs.

So my ASUS P5Q PRO recently died (power on but no post, psu is fine) and I need a cheapish build to go with my GTX 660. I chose the FX 4300 and some cheap 2x4GB ram from G.Skill. Now, I won't overclock and will probably need the most "linux friendly" one in the future. So what be the best for about €80?

I'm trying to make a url/ip obscurification tool. I have it mostly finished even though code looks like shit.
What are some alternative formats to ipv6 that work in the browser?
I know long/short and ipv6+.ipv6-literal.net (windows shit)
Is there a way to format ip6.arpa so you can visit it in your browser?e.0.0.2.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.2.0.8.0.f.0.0.4.0.b.8.f.7.0.6.2.ip6.arpa

since you're on a tech site, you're expected to understand that end-to-end encryption on Facebook Messenger (or WhatsApp) is completely meaningless
the only reasonable cases for people snooping on you are
> facebook is snooping on you/datamining you, whether automatically or otherwise
> a government agency has access to facebook's data
> someone has physical access to your device or less likely, has compromised it remotely
none of these are solved...

Like what?
So /g/ since I started using qbitorrent I never encountered any issues, however, recently I/O errors have been popping up frequently with large files (15+gb) is there a fix for this? Or should I just switch to something else like Deluge or an older uTorrent build?
Deluge
Transmission
that might mean your hard drive is dying my friend. do a disk check.
What is up with AMD fans and "waiting"? They love their waiting like

Overpriced, power hungry and slow in everything other than select DX12 titles

Poverty. Otherwise, they would just buy superior Intel and nVidia products

That, but there's got to be some weird underdog mentality mixed in there as well.
Are AMD fans the SJWs of home computing?
320 CBR mp3 vs 256 m4a?
songs have same price at google play music and itunes.
m4a is lighter but mp3 quality is better (?)
Also, do you prefer support Apple or Google?

not really, is why I'm asking
How would one go about making a Tor site that's as secure as it can get? You know, for selling stuff... in a niche area.
As far as I know most people get busted because of pure stupidity like not encrypting, money transfer, etc.
I have reasonable experience in doing everything software related for this, but not in actual security. Last thing I remember learning about this in school were SQL injections and methods like that. What books or resources should I look into?
In what country should I put the server and how do I secure them?
>selling stuff in a "niche" area
You sure it is so niche?

Asking this on a taiwanese home cooking board shows you don't know what the fuck you're doing and that means you're pretty much guaranteed to get caught. Give it up, don't become the next dpr.

While my headphones are good, I finally want to get myself speakers and have the full experience. The problem is, I have no idea what to look for.
All I know is that they should have decent sound quality and lots of bass. My budget is around 300€. I'm fully aware that I can't expect a lot for that amount money.
I want to put them on my desk and ideally connect them to my PC. Do I need anything else besides the speakers themselves?
Also, here's a list of different speaker types from Thomann. What's the right category for me?

Just get Active Speakers + an Audio Interface.
Look for JBL LSR305 and Steinberg UR22 MK2
Active Stage Monitors - 2.0 setup
Audio Interface
Iam currently looking for the same setup, also from germany.
Lets bump it up.
>>55505029
>Lots of bass
Wrong. You want as flat of a frequency response as you can get. Subs are overrated and unnecessary, but if you like shitty sound by all means go with something with a sub. If you're looking for quality then go with active full range speakers.
Whats /g/s opinion on pci express ssds?
Idea is decent, in practice it doesn't work because booting from PCI-E is either impossible or a massive pain in the ass.
The SSDs aren't really fast enough to take advantage of PCI-E's bandwidth, either.
