>Some tech and gaming companies have left behind a shameful history of objectifying women in major promotional venues, but Microsoft's behavior at the 2016 Game Developers Conference this week was a surprising reversal of progress. Attendees of Microsoft's GDC party were greeted by women dancing on platforms — a choice made not by the venue but by Microsoft.

>Objectifying women.
Again with the sex negative feminism's cancerous vitriol.
Why don't they come out and say that Bisexuals are the only acceptable collective within the LGBT,
and that Gays, Lesbians, and arguable Transgenders,
are all bigoted objectifying filth because their romantic and sexual interest is primarily defined by the opposite party's sex (exterior), and only secondarily defined by their personality? Bigoted as in being of closed mind.
Can these sex negative feminists be any more different than born again churches going full retard and conservative soccer mommies?
I bet 10 minutes from now, Verge is gonna make an article deriding religion despite this very article being the definition of religious moralism which would garner all the support from Christian Conservatives possible.

I don't even know why i'm wasting my time replying. That site is as cancerous as GAWKER.

BEST Thread in /g/
So I hate to break it to you, but the Purism Librem doesn't have better privacy than the google chromebook pixel, is less secure than a cheap arm laptop (because of intel ME), and is less powerful than a cheap x86 laptop (because you pay extra for freedom/funding a nerd tech startup).
Seriously, all the firmware on the google pixel is just as "floss" as that on the librem, except for the sound drivers and touchpad.
And the pixel costs less.
And its faster.
And it's made with higher quality.
If you buy a librem you're paying...

The librems a joke
>>53638089
Chris on LAS reviewed the Librem that finally arrived. Apparently it wasn't even what he ordered, and there was a bug in the firmware meaning the fans were always running 100%.
Why is the google pixel i5 not for sale anymore? Is google releasing a new pixel at google io in may?

reinventing the wheel.
X11 works, exists and i can run an x11 thing on one machine and have it display on another cant do that with wayland. if they want to improve things improve X11.
but then if you're going to "improve" on x11, then ffs this aint it, take a look at sample wayland hello world...

64gb is more than enough unless you're some kind of flactard
>>no removable battery
The battery is easily replaceable, its just not swappable, which is unnecessary with such a large battery

Someone has got into my jewgle account for the third time (different country each time, could just be a VPN), and for the third time I've had to change my password. How do I keep my account secure and tell the person/people doing this to fuck off?
>>53637424
stop browsing porn while logged in on chrome
>>53637457
I use Firefox. Mind giving any tips to keep my account secure? Make a new account? Ditch the botnet altogether?
>>53637424
* Don't access your account(s) from a computer with any spyware or keyloggers.
* Use a truly random password. I mean truly fucking random, not what you think is random.
* Use random answers for the questions that let you reset an account. Also use 2 step verification.
* Be careful what what password manager you use (if any).
What do I need to know about RSS feeds?
>Is this an outdated medium or can information be effectively absorbed this route?
if you follow a bunch of content from disparate sites it's useful. News, blogs, changelogs, etc. Then you get all the content in 1 place instead of a dozen.
I use it for blogs (mostly porn) and slow-to-update comics so that I don't have to keep checking the sites.
I use it for everything from blogs and newsites to youtube.

Why aren't you using Fedora?
what's that
>Debian, arch, gentoo
>upgrade with the package manager
>nothing breaks
>Fedora
>upgrade with the package manager
>freedesktop.org/redhat clusterfuck breaks
>"you were supposed to reboot and use fedup"
>>53637041
why should I when the various flavors of Ubuntu I have work completely fine? Last time I tried to install Fedora on anything, nothing "just weked" out of the box.
On my laptop, WiFi and HDMI out never worked.
Meanwhile everything worked OOB with pretty much every variant of Ubuntu there was. The only thing I hear people have against Apt-get based systems is the auto-remove function.
What interest should I have with an OS with limited hardware compatibility and requires being fucked...

I'm thinking about trying iOS. So far the phones I've had are Samsung Galaxy S3, LG G3, and Nexus 6.
I'm deciding between three phones for my next phone:
1. Samsung Galaxy S7/E
2. iPhone 6S/Plus
3. Nexus 6P
Leaning towards Galaxy S7 cause of camera, battery, performance, looks. Cons are touchwiz, slow AF OS updates.
iPhone 6S leaning towards because performance, camera, battery, try out iOS, grass is greener. Cons are not very customizable, don't like the design as much as material design.
Nexus...

Get an android with a removable battery. Buy an extra battery and charger. You'll be good to go.
How did you feel about the G3? My battery life is awful and the stock apps don't work well together imo. Great phone otherwise.
>>53637035
i would get a nexus, because they are great phones if your a guy like me who likes to customize stuff, i got a nexus 5 and loved it to death until the screen broke. if you can root the s7 i might get that but if you just want a simple streamline experince go for the iphone.
>>53637035
Have you considered the G4?
This board needs to be fucking moderated more. Any news from mods on when janitor application opens?

HOw do you convert seconds to microwave time?
lets say you have 60 seconds that would be 00:60 but if you have 61 seconds that would be 01:01.
What's the wizardy /g/?
>lets say you have 60 seconds that would be 00:60
4th dimension doesn't have 60 seconds. only 0 thru 59. ask steven hawkings.
I use a temporal abacus to do the conversion but you gotta learn latin first, not for beginners
