Tell customers not to buy these products.
Change wallpapers to Gaben.
Realized I've pretty much settled on what I know as it's 'adequate', but know there's a boatload more that would be good to know.
What are some not 100% basic VIM commands, scripts or what have you, that you use?
remapped j and k to gk and gj
makes working with .tex less of a pain in the ass
>sudo apt-get install emacs
>>53324732
Why is vim so much more popular on /g/ than emacs anyway? I thought it'd be more of an even split
FIREFOX IS LITERALLY USING %70 OF A 4690K

WHAT
THE
FUCK
could be a malicious addon.
go turn them off and check again.
>>53324630
Aren't all addons "approved" by firefox now?
>>53324613
Run in safemode, from the CLI:firefox --safe-mode&
I don't know how to do it in windows. But see how it performs without any addons.
I have been having issues with FF lately. I can't get local storage to work correctly with my native cookie management (It would probably work if I installed a cookie addon). Also I have noticed some slowdown.
Is C a meme language? What are it's benefits over other languages?

>>5332452
How is it versatile? Not trying to be obtuse, just don't know.
>>53324508

Welcome to the botnet.

There's anything better than chrome?
Shouldn't you have deleted this thread and made a new one by now?
How on earth can I stop
>background intelligent transfer service
from windows fuckin 10 permanently ?
I go into services and stop it and then disable it in properties but this shit face service starts up and eats my data. Can't set my 3G USB dongle as metered, so how on earth do I stop this shit service? Anybody on the same boat as me?
>>53323288
You don't want to stop the background intelligent transfer service because if you actually could then you literally couldn't send any data over your network.
REMOVE WINDOWS 10!
Kek, sole reason I removed winblows 10. Kill yourself o.p or get yourself a copy of Ububtu
Is windows 10 a botnet? I do love the speed and resource management but spying is unethical, more so when it happens for business.
>>53323109
Shen you clean install it and click on the advanced options, it clearly states that it will send keyloggings, browser data, your files, speech, your contacts, your calendars,… to microsoft.
>>53323109
The spying happens on private users mostly, Enterprise can disable pretty much everything. (Not super sure if it's the case about basic telemetry, but it doesn't send anything relevant)
Besides, if you handle such sensitive data, your shit shouldn't be online.
So basically, yes it's a botnet but can be regulated down to reasonable levels.
>>53323140
It also lets you turn it off.

>Windows 10 16% of desktop market share

kek, you Lincucks need to step out of your /g/ echo chamber.
>>53322953
Linux would have a much higher market share as well if we baited people into it with ads in the OS they're already using
GNU/Linux could make good ground if it's user base didn't harass and belittle people like vegans and feminists do.
>Windows is dead now!
>Finally, the year of the linux!
Only reddit-tier faggots actually believed this.
>>53323256
Why don't you?
Gtk or Qt
G T K

>>53322259
I'd use opengl and some input library, gtk and qt are bloat.
>>53322259
Gtk
Qt is a joke, they built a whole new language and ide WTF
That's like, c# visual studio tier bullshit

https://github.com/theScrabi/NewPipe
>>53322153
Does it even support 1440p and 4k yet?
last time I tried it didn't even work
The shittiest YouTube app out there even competitive to Windows mobile versions.
The Raspberry Pi 3 is 64 bits, but what does that mean? Can it run 64 bits apps like a N64 emulator now?
the rpi2 could already emulate n64 games, you stupid fucking idiot.
It's 64 bit as in amd64? How is that even possible? Wouldn't it be slow as fuck on that small processor?
>>53321572
>implying amd64 isn't slow on any processor
Intel won, I drink your milkshake, get over it.
Why don't Western schools teach programming on paper anymore?
Why must everything be done on a computer?
Doesn't it
Because we actually have computer
>>53321456
Because we stand on the shoulders of the people that lived before us
Like I don't have to know every component that stands between me and shitposting, same goes with programming
The end justifies the means I guess
>>53321456
>Why don't Western schools teach programming on paper anymore?
At my university the theoretical exams are still very much paper.
Gonna decide between buying a new mac laptop or maybe some pc laptop since my friends keep nagging on me. But I don't know any good Windows based laptops that has good res, good performance and doesn't look like shit.
ME: Not needed for gaming and max budget is about 1800 USD
No need for any hate mac/pc arguments, just some solid advice and maybe a referall to laptops.
Si what do you want to use it for. I am biased towards Linux and windows FYI. If you spend money in a SSD and get a good computer your specs are better over all with Windows and it supports more common programs.
If you plan on doing video or music things Macs make it pretty easy plus a lot of people like the estetics of Macs.
Hardware
"Windows" has cheaper available parts that you can replace yourself easily and quickly and cheaply in general.
Apple: hardware is sometimes proprietary and has to have official hardware as of last year. A bit tougher...

If you're looking at Windows you may want to look at the thinkpad x1 yoga. Hope that helps
>>53321167
Just get a refurbished rMBP 13" with 512GB/16GB. I've had mine for 6 months now and it runs great with a nice display and battery. The track pad is insane too. Windblows also runs great on it if you need to use it.
Ubuntu without Unity is actually quite functional and comfortable to work with. It's incredibly well supported and the ubuntu forums have solutions to just about any issue one might have.
Anyone else here actually enjoy Ubuntu?
BOTNET CANCER

unity was the "botnet cancer" you fucking retard
>>53320462
no, it was visually pleasing botnet cancer, according to the unity creators there's a difference kek
I honestly don't understand why people think Arch is unstable. Screenfetch tells me my daily machine has been up for 26 days and counting. That is like mac level stability. I have only had two problems ever. When I first installed Arch I didn't realize I had to get ncurses in the livecd to use wifi-menu within Arch. I also once got some corrupted keys with Pacman. So I updated them and all was fine. Has anyone actually had the problems people report to have had with Arch or is it just winshill meme propagander?
>>53319730
Only problems I've ever had were due to user error. Arch was my first distro and the only issue I had was installing Mesa first and then wanting proprietary drivers which broke my system further than what I could fix. Other than that no issues.
Things don't fall apart entirely if you're not retarded but the bleeding edge occasionally lets noticeably buggy packages slip through. Fixes/workarounds are usually announced. But it's only a huge problem if you really depend on everything working all the time.
