Would anybody here like to be my Steam friend?
I'm pretty lonely these days because I've never been very good at making friends, and I would like a friend from here because I have browsed here for a really long time.
I don't really want to post my Steam for everyone to see because I'm a little nervous about meeting new people, so if you would like to talk and maybe be friends, can you please post your Steam URL?
Thank you <3
What's your steam URL? I'm not by the pc and don't know mine.

I don't want friends from /v/. I don't browse there anymore and haven't for a long time. I just want a friend from here :c
So I've monitored /g/ for a while and here is my conclusion on the average /g/ fag:
>I don'trust any software unless I write it myself or it's open source. But since I can't code for shit I never do it. I use open source software to pretend to actually read through million lines of code and check them for any malicious content while really all I do is run meme distributions of linux to post screenshots of it on /g/ all day, every day of my life

Just fixed this dead 2 in one convertible with a bay trail atom, 2gb ram, and a 64GB ssd.
It's touch screen too, since it's convertible.
I want to use it for uni, note taking and such, should I stick with windows 8.1, upgrade to 10, or install Linux?
I'm leaning towards Fedora with a lightweight de like mate, but battery life is important to me.
Any advice?
Pic related.
install gentoo
>>53411323
Another option I was considering was Ubuntu because unity on a touch screen looks pretty nice
Stick with win8.1
linux support for baytrail is fucking shit

Do you want to rape thermodynamics anon?
Never, because it doesn't align with physics
High transistor counts are necessary for processing anything
Transistors cause heat
Heat needs to be dissipated with heatsinks (heavy) and/or fans (loud)
Batteries are also heavy
What you're asking for won't exist until a monumental breakthrough with multiple technologies happen
I have a hard nut to crack, need to choose one of those.
All of the above have their pros and cons, i like EPIM the most but Evernote has better functionality on Android deivces.
Also what throws me off is the fact that Evernote and especially gCalendar are botnet. However there hasn't been any personal info leaks from both, but still.
What's your opinion?

Those are three completely different services.
As long as you're not stating your use case I really don't see what we're comparing here
>legally purchased music via iTunes and Amazon

What the fucking shit it this /g/

>>Microsoft locks me out
Microsoft aint done shit here, blame Amazon and Apple. DRM is bad, okay?
>>53410903
"honest sites" sometimes rip media straight from a cracker or other sources and sell it.
I've seen it happen with a gaming platform that literally took a cracker game and reuploaded it without the author's signature
>illegally obtain music
>no problem because no drm
>???
moral of the story: don't buy drm'd music
HDDs have a small air hole to balance air pressure.
What if I'd just seal that hole to make the HDD airtight for the oil container? Would it work if I'd use a thin rubber membrane from a balloon or so, so there can be still some pressure balancing?
This issue is the only thing keeping me from my oil pc build.
>inb4 helium filled HDDs
>inb4 4TB SSDs
Put it in a plastic bag
>>53410854
Meh,
getting the plastic bag airtight with the connectors would be a pain. And it'll look like shit.
Anyone tried sealing a HDD?
>>53410810
If you can afford to do that kind of build surely you can buy ssds. Also you'll have to externally mount them. Unless you want to completely fuck up your hdd
Why doesn't Firefox, nor its rebrands or forks, offer support for TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 {0xC0,0x30}, nor TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 {0xC0,0x2C}?

this is far too advanced for this board.
pepper your angus for some trolling.
>>53410722
because you are not running gentoo GNU/linux.
windows dont have the required dependencies for those two since they are GPLv3 which microsoft have problems with, they prefer v2...
anyway, installing gentoo will fix your problem m8
>>53410798
you are wrong, firefox dropped its support in windows and not that windows lack the dependencies required for that, and gentoo wont fix it either, the last supported OS is Dos...
which can be advanced for some user but your TLS should run fine :)
Does NVIDIA really artificially butcher capabilities like FP64 of all consumer products to push their premium workstation hardware?
What is this scheme called? Are there no laws against it?
yes.
no idea.
no, why would there be?
All GPU companies do it, it's why they won't support open drivers.
If you buy a device with a powerVR gpu it won't support openCL unless the chip manufacturer paid extra for it to be enabled in the driver.
Nvidia and ATI managed to prevent much competition in GPUs using patents, so they can get away with it for the moment.
Most of their chips are also butchered versions of the full chip. But so are AMD's
>Windows user land + NT kernel
Windows
>Android user land + Linux kernel
Android
>GNU user land + Linux kernel
GNU
Why don't you call it GNU?
>>53410305
The Android user land is called bionic though
Because GNU is a really fucking stupid name.
>>53410417
Not as stupid as "Windows" or "OS X"

Aren't most "routers" sold actually modem/router combos nowadays?
>>53409828
There are cheap ones that are not both.
Normies usually buy the cheapest things they find or the most expensive gimmicky bullshit. They did really know what moderation means
>>53409892
Is this an american thing? I haven't seen non-modem routers/non-router modems for sale for years now.
AMD has no drivers, top kek
[UPDATE2] Latest Nvidia Drivers Will NOT Damage Your PC Hardware But Still Problematic

>AMD has no drivers, top kek
Wrong, fuck boi. AMD actually released brand spanking new drivers yesterday and a pretty major one (not just """Game Ready""" like the oft touted Nvidia drivers) at that.
>>53409891
any major issues with the new amd driver?
>>53410803
Works perfectly fine as always. I mean, it's not like AMD has ever literally fried GPUs with their drivers...
So Opera Developer now includes an ad-blocker, and it suggests blocking them right when you load your first webpage.
Why aren't you using it? Are you going to dismiss this brave step forward?
Opera's had an ad blocker since the Presto days, I'm using it right now.
>>53409589
Yeah, I mean the new one. They included that feature back, and it works really really well. Better than using an extension.
>>53409584
does Opera sell your info?
Hello /g/entoomen,
