You can buy a dumbphone in Netto in Poland right now for the equivalent of 7 USD.

Hello /g/ care for a challenge?
I'm looking for some help recovering an Corsair 3.0 128gb usb drive. That seems retarded right? But i have done almost everything that i could find on the internet and nothing worked.
What happened: I had installed an operating system on this usb and i was configuring some shit, i was on the system, and i issued the command "find X" as a root user, i was searching for some stuff that i needed to install another program, then all out of nothing it just shutdown by itself, when i tried reboot it i just wont go in, well...

Buy cheao flash drive
Install linux
Mount usb sonewhere
Format in command line
Remount image to flash drive on different os bc fuck doing that in Linux
>>55499126
Are you retarded? Just delete the whole partition and make a new one, then format it.
>>55500998
I tried doing that, but even tough it says that the he deleted and created a new one ok, it actually doesnt work correctly, the fucked up data is still there. It even gets in the way of remaking the partition sometimes
Are your parents tech-competent, /g/? Were they a positive/negative influence in your interest in tech?
My dad turned 60 this year, and it got me to think about he was an influence on me choosing tech as a career option. He works at the local branch of a cable company as a manager for a lot of the maintenance techs (running diagnostics and fixing shit). My brother and I always had good internet and ample computer access. He's decent enough with computers that he can do minor troubleshooting/swap out drives/install operating systems, but he's good at wiring/electrical...

My father is the coolest fucking dad ever. I learned everything I know from him. How to assemble parts, how to solder, how to fucking even fix bent motherboard pins. I am currently making myself a computer and I got most of my parts from his "lab" for free. An UEFI motherboard, 8GB DDR3 RAM, i5, a motherfucking 600W Cooler Master PSU, RAID10 HDD + SSD etc. etc. You get the deal. He's one of the persons that used a Commodore 64, heck even a IBM Model M computer in Turkey. Yes, they were not common in Turkey but he fucking used them. My father is the fucking best.

Sounds pretty nuts anon, what does he do for a living?
>>55499102
>but he's good at wiring/electrical stuff, something I find most "CS" students I've met fairly incompetent with
CS is basically only the software side, so it's pretty obvious, I'm not too competent at it either being a software technician.
Computer Engineers are the ones that know their shit about electronics, and obviously Electrical/Electronical engineers/technicians, in my family my dad works in Electronics and my uncle with Electricity,...

I'm split between getting a singe 1080p@144Hz monitor, single 2160p@60Hz, and triple 1080p@60Hz. Which would you choose and why?
depends for what youre usung them. I would choose the 3 monitors so i can play some games and watch porn at rhe same time
>>55499214
Gaming. I can't decide if I want noticeably high frame rates or pixels. I've used a 144Hz monitor before but it was for work. 4k sounds nice and with pascal its playable but I also want to try triple display. My budget is around $400
>>55499298
>Gaming
Go with 144Hz
Console is just too shitty for me in terms of gaming and I am just abandoning it I want better graphics modding and a bigger selection of games I have a pc picked out that seems pretty good and I wanted some opinions to cement my decision I've never built a pc and I'm not gunna have that be the way I start I have about 1k to spend and figured this could run most triple A titles on high considering pretty good cpu and gpu and ram what I wanna know is I'm mostly gunna use it for garrys mod and minecraft maybe ark would it be good enough for those and if so on what...

What's your opinion of Vulkan?
Hopefully it will be popular and a viable alternative to dx12, sadly only on windows 10. Would be nice if Vulkan would actually (meaning for real this time) make it possible to play most games on Linux.
>>55498699
Its great for android too.
