you forgot the biggest part:
Systemd is an effort to swallow and compromise the entire GNU/Linux userbase

Please concisely reference the exact lines of code that make any "RPM distros" compromised
Why linux sucks at memory management?
It has the worst memory management in history!
I can't smoothly work with some things dumped to disk.

Whats the best graphics card so my computer doesn't crash?

GTX 970

Titan x.
What do you mean "so my computer doesn't crash"
Why doesn't Windows come with a pre installed mail client?
because it would be trash

It does, delete this thread.
Whatever happened to Electronics with clear colored plastic? back in the late 90's/early 00's, everything did that. the imacs, GBA's, even N64's.
that's a trend I rather miss
only vaporwave enthuasists would want to buy one now
Don't kid yourself, that shit is ugly.
There's a few old design memes I'd like to see come back, like the old IBM industrial design look or even the 70's wood paneling, but clear plastic is not one of them
>>53644932
guess its just a taste thing, because i always liked clear plastic on electronics.

ANDROID Rules,

people who take these arguments seriously only do so because they don't actually have any technical knowledge so they can only discuss "muhh graphics card is better than yours" and resort to meme arguments
How in-depth are the math and CS subjects on Khan Academy? It seems to have a pretty big amount of lessons for a lot of fields.
How close are these lessons to a paper literature?
I'm wondering if websites like Treehouse and Udemy could provide a really good lessons for web development, are there good equivalents to CS subjects such as algos/data structures/probability etc. That is - except from courses from stanford and other universities. To me personally the courses are slow as fuck and it bores me too soon. I want something to the point, short-ish but as...

breadth over depth
you skim over a lot of topics but never really "learn" them. Just get a book or watch MIT OCW stop looking for shortcuts buddy
>>53643911
How is this one? (MIT intro to algos 6.something).
https://youtu.be/Kg4bqzAqRBM
Do I need books or can I just watch the videos and do some work?
I've been watching this course a couple of times but can't see the point. I'm a web dev/designer (student still) and in this industry almost nobody seems to care about this that much. I want to learn it either way.
>>53643882
Khan Academy is courses for children to help with their schoolwork or to fill gaps if you dropped out of school and want to go back.
If you want depth, you can find some serious university-level courses on edX and Coursera. But these would mostly be Stanford, MIT etc. courses, which you for some reason dislike? I don't think you are going to find any in-depth _and_ rigorous courses that are much faster than the ones provided by Stanford, MIT, ...

>being this poor and stupid
Holy fuck buy an iphone.
I got my first phone in 1997 and had 4 in total.
How does one even go through so many? Unbelievable.
>>53643759
I have had three in half of that time. I got the second because I switched from a GSM to a CDMA. I got the third and current because I felt like getting a smartphone.
Hey /g/
okay so I'm not sure if this belongs here, or in /sci/, so forgive me. Earlier yesterday, i took apart a used up stick lighter, simply to see what made that spark to light the gas. Piezoelectric generator is what I found, but for the life of me, I can't find an accurate description on just how much voltage and amps this thing makes.
Could anyone here help me out?
What kind of fedora lighter uses this to light the flame?
VOLTS十分多, aber eine geringe Menge Strom.

This video gives a detailed explanation.

I put lot of movies on usb memory and give it to my dad and brother to watch. They dont have internet on their computer and can only watch movies on windows movie player which is annoying because it doesnt support all file types
How to i install MPC or VLC to their computer
Their computer has always been offline and dont have zip reader so I cant just simply put zip file into their computer.
They only have internet on their android, is there a way to install programs from the phone if you connect it with computer?
>>53643665
Take a USB.
Put the installer of MPC or VLC on it.
Stick it in your sister.
Install MPC or VLC.
Sounds like your dad and brother are dumbasses and you should leave them to fend for themselves

It baffles me that OP can not figure this out himself, this has to be bait right?

I just use chrome, I would use some other browser but I don't like any of them. Yandex is cool but they don't have a linux browser yet. I do have Yandex browser on my android phone though
Linux beta, desu ka? The automatic layout correction sounds like a neato фичa but I use phonetic and most of the time google transliterates it correctly
Now just build a browser wrapper of sorts that can have tabs of any browser.
>all the 3rd party pressure sensitive styluses are for ipad
>none for android
why
>>53643219
Because Android only released the stylus APIs in Marshmallow and comapnies haven't had the time to adopt yet
>>53643219
Pressure sensitive is nothing impressive. Tilt is what sets the pencil apart from any other consumer solution on the market.
>>53643327
Doesn't surface pro stylus have tilt as well?
Also do you think tablets will eventually become so good for drawing that they'll take over Wacom's market share and Wacom will just supply the technology?
