You walk into Windows Burgers. What's on the menu, /g/?
blue waffle of death
Mystery 'meat' and Secret 'sauce' in brightly labeled packaging.

There are no prices, instead they hand you a EULA and a pen where you fill out some payment information and pick out a which version of the menu you want, they are all basically the same items but for whatever reason they are all missing something vital, the STARTER edition doesn't have buns and you have to bring your own cup to use the soda fountain. The ULTIMATE PRO version is the only one worth having, but is inflated to five times the cost of the lesser versions. The terms place limits on how many burgers...

What is better for storage SSD or HDD?
It's 2016
SSD for everything.
You want things to load fast? If so go with a ssd, but bare in mind that they are usually more expensive than a conventional hdd for the same capacity.
HDDs, if anything goes wrong it can be sent in for platter data recovery.
If a SSD drops out from bios, you're fucked.
Contrary to popular belief, when SSDs die, they don't always go into read only mode, hell a lot of people simply lost their SSD on reboot.
Found these in an old box of CGA / EGA video boards I bough recently.
All three of these cards match nothing I have found on their particular model numbers, one has bodged on components, and the other two have a mostly socketed design, with one of those two having an unlabeled EPROM.
I don't have manuals or even an appropriate monitor to test these with, unless the RCA jacks on the end are actually RF / AV connectors.
One of the cards (A Video7 model of some sort) had a General Electric logo and inventory number stamped onto a label attached to it.

Why would you waste money on tech trash?
>>52603087
I have lots of old computers.
Dinosaurs, some call them.
When you have an old computer that works perfectly fine for the task it performs, why throw it out?

What's your job, anon?
There are people on /g/, right now, that have bought an iPhone for themselves.
These phones are ridiculously priced for their specs and overly prone to obsolescence.
Some of these people even buy every new iteration of iPhone.
Why? Why do you do this, /g/? Even Windows Phones are better choices. Blackberries. Equivalently specced Android phones are literally half the price with twice the functionality.
What gives? Why do you, the actual informed consumer, buy into these bullshit fashion accessories?
>>52602808
bitches luv dem blu text mesgs, dawg
I was just thinking about buying an iphone right now and it was purely to fit in.
Thank you for saving me from that fit of madness OP.
>>52602808
Because it's the simplest choices, and making choices by yourself is hard.
But just as a reminder, iPhone has less than 15% of global market, so on a global scale they aren't looking all that hot. Cheaper phones outsell iPhones 6 to 1.
So anon, we had to let go of your other team members, but we managed to hire some new people anyway!
Meet your new fellow programmers!

All they want now is smartphones and computers and Xbones. Has technology destroyed the innocence of childhood and imagination?

that kids would rather play video games than wander around at a playground doesn't surprise me. why shocks me is that many of them would apparently rather watch a stream of someone else playing video games than play video games.
Now its been transfered to games like minecraft. Not a single game though even comes close to some of the adventures i had as a child in the woods with freinds. I wish kids could put down ipads and go outside instead of watching pewdiepie be a fagget for 8 hours.
>>52602544
although if minecraft was made without all its autism it would be a pretty fun building simulation that teaches things like circutry
Which one is superior?
380 is faster and atleast where I live, cheaper.
960 has (subjectively) better drivers, physx and uses less power.
Neither is definitely better, pick the card that suits your priorities best.
960.
Consumes less power, higher frequency, is shorter, has more ports and is cheaper.
AMD is known for problems while Nvidia just weeks.
>>52601742
Price depends where you live, in the uk it's around £20 cheaper to buy the 380 than the 960.
Hello /g/. Some of you may have noticed how cancerous this board has become, while others may be perfectly content with it.
I pose the question to you now, is it time we divide ourselves into a consumerism board and a programming board?

How would you do this?
>>52601454
a program that counts rotations.
>>52601796
I meant the hardware part.
Software is pretty straightforward.
But how would the computer know how many rotations have happened?
>>52601821
With a sensor

Not sure what private trackers are all about?
The mission of /ptg/ is to promote the highest possible standards of tracker service by providing members with opportunities for professional development, by recognizing technical competence through examinations and by advancing the interests of its members.
Check out the wiki and update it yourself if you want more instead of complaining like a fucking faggot. https://wiki.installgentoo.com/index.php/Private_trackers

Back when I had Verizon DSL I was trying to set up a webserver, but they were blocking Incoming port 80. I called Verizon to see what they could do about it and had to explain to the rep what a port was.
it's sort of ironic that the best service I ever had was when I stole it from comcast. Had business class speed and it never went down.
>>52600758
How the hell did you steal service? Like split the cables?
