I just got done with a 1-week ticket about a "Windows 10 driver problem" that ended up being a firefox problem
Question is, how stupid so you have to be to mistake a driver problem for a browser problem?
>>55499726
how do i make firefox have the same width as safari?
also, the shit uses more battery power than chrome, so yeah it's not optimized
>>55499746
bluetooth issue.
Ended up being firefox that couldn't handle the bluetooth auto-detection. Every other browser did fine.
Does alaska have good internet and will my ping be 900000000
Depending where you are in Alaska you'll probably be limited to satellite internet which isn't terrible but your ping will be too high to play games.
But there has to be a decent size town with Wimax or something I'm guessing
Google.

I'll be stationed in alaska at fort richardson
Alaska has two modes. Normal, modern cities like Anchorage, and the hinterlands. Guess which one has good internet.

/g/, I'm looking for a tablet device to take on the go just to read my huge collection of .pdf and .epub files. Are there any /g/-tier tablets at a decent (sub-$150) price? I've looked into the Kindles but they seem somewhat lackluster for the price, and the lack of full color puts me off.
Any suggestions?
>>55499702
I bought a paperwhite to bring all my pirated text books to class with me and I'm very happy with it. Maybe look into the Kobo or a non-eink device like the Zenpad S 8 inch? The zenpad has awesome specs for the price. High PPI too.
>>55499727
Know of any cheaper alternatives to the Zenpad? I'm not a huge fan of android to be honest; I'd actually rather a proprietary OS.
>>55499702
>$150
Add $50 and buy a tablet that can run windows 10 mane.
What's the best gtk based DE and how does it compare with KDE?
>>55499680
GNOME is the most polished and stable. Plus the way it deals with workspaces is better than other DEs. You just have to get used to something different than a traditional start menu.
Isn't this like the 5th "Which DE is best" thread today? Look in the archive.
>>55499755
GNOME 3*
>>55499755
>the way it deals with workspaces is better than other DEs
How?
Is an i5 4690 to weak to pair with a 1070? Thinking of moving up from my 970, but I don't know if I should just do a shiny new build.
I don't know what to do /g/
Get skymeme
Z97 is doa at this point
6500 with bclk overclock
Ezpz
Also fucking kill me.
Does it get better with win10?
I want to pick up a raspberry pi-like computer with similar processing power to a modern smartphone.
What would be my best bet? Cheaper is better.
>>55499616
I'm also curious. Bump
Beaglebone or Intel Edison
>>55499616
probably a Pi 3
4 core ARMv8, ~1GHz
Do PSU's wear out over time and produce less power?
I have an 850W PSU from Corsair that I've been using for 5-6 years. After building a new machine with about a 400-500W requirement I figured I could carry over my PSU as well as the GPU & Case.
Well I can't get the thing to boot correctly. I'm receiving continuous short beeps which according to the Gigabyte beep codes for this mobo means a power issue, but upon reassmebling my old build the PSU works just fine.
I've swapped out to different parts multiple times 3 different...

>Do PSU's wear out over time and produce less power?
Not true. Capacitors wear out but you shouldn't get less voltage.
>>55499639
Do you know what else could be a problem if the beep codes suggest PSU failure?
If I am reading the Gigabyte website correctly, continuous short beeps says the PSU has failed, but it is working for my previous build, which isn't much further from the total wattage used. Even if it wasn't close I still think I have 200-300 extra at least.
Make sure you really shove the 24 pin and 4/8 pin for the main ATX power and cpu.
Fuck yes... It's finally happening. Backing up to an external as I type this. About to set this bastard up. 250GB 850 EVO. The dream is real!
>>55499565
I've already replaced my laptop HDD with a sandisk SSD, It's been nice so far, The speed boost was well worth it, Not to mention the battery life increase.
Might go with one of those fancy new samsung drives for my desktop.

Are they done with? What will my techfu Elizabeth end up doing next? I wish I could save her ._.
>>55499496
Have you ever heard her speak? She sounds like an 80 year old smoker.
>>55499496

>>55499511
She has a power voice. As a redpilled alpha male, I can actually recognize and appreciate that.
>haven't had to restart my computer in 3 weeks with windows 10

OK are reference cards really THAT bad?
>>55499454
yes
>>55499454
Depends on card. The high end ones are usually worse than AIB cards, but on lower end it's less clear cut when you take price into consideration.
>>55499454
>reference
You mean Founders Edition.
Guys I can't fucking decide. Is Matte coating worth the $30 difference per monitor?
>>55499441
Depends on how sunny your room gets.

Never (heavy dark curtains).
How does 4chan work? Is the number assigned to each comment just a tally of how many posts there have been since the beginning of the website?
>>55499394
Since the beginning of the board.
>>55499394
>How does 4chan work?
It's powered on anger and meems
> Is the number assigned to each comment just a tally of how many posts
it's the tally of memes posted since the beggininging of tiem
Why is this browser so shit? It's such a burden to use. Give me stable multiprocess already! Also make it faster.
>>55499377
They have it, but you gotta enable it manually. But they're also bloating it with shitty botnet stuff, so best compile it yourself with appropriate patches.
>>55499377
I'm using it in a fucking Celeron right now and I have no issue.
Illiterate google cuck.
