My wife just talked me out of buying a 3rd gen carbon w/ dual core i7 and 26g of ram. It was 2800 and I was going to run Linux so I'd have something to develop on. Did I do the right thing by listening to her? I'm currently running a mbpro and I'm sick of osx.
>>52591062
you can run linux on a mbp

If you have a good laptop and are unhappy with the OS, why switch laptops over just changing the OS?
>>52591073
Ya but it's a work laptop and it's working fine. Besides I'm not suppose to use it for personal use. Some of my projects would bode well on company equipment
Unless you play all the latest AAA video games, what reasons do you have to get a computer made after say, 2007?

Media is getting large these days. You need a stronger pc to push those large files around.

Intended for users of all levels, including absolute beginners.
There are four ways to try Linux, you can:
1) Install a Linux OS on a VM (Virtual Machine/VirtualBox) for "safety purposes"
2) Use the Live ISO directly without installing anything, that way, you can get a "full Linux experience".
3) Dual-boot Linux with Windows/Mac (recommended if you want to learn more about Linux)
4) Go balls deep and overwrite everything with Linux (not...

what's your favourite retro operating system, /g/?
>>52590005
DOS
NT4 is probably my favorite legacy OS that I've actually used desu, it feels very ahead of its time
I really want to try NeXTSTEP out some day though, seriously considering splurging on a NOS slab or cube
>>52590005
win 3.1, because it was my first os

>Yeah Brenda, see the material your companies makes available to customers from my location is complete horse shit, which leaves me with two options. I can either use a vpn to browse your site from a location with a better selection or I can cancel my service. Never mind Brenda, you invasive cunt, lets go ahead and cancel my service.
>>52589757
what VPN?
>>52589992
>Ok then You, since this is a breach of our policy, I am not blacklisting this IP, and cancelling your service

I never said you had to be using it you fucking moron

Fuck off if you're not using GNU/Linux you unleaded piece of fucking mosquito!

I have a blue yeti mic, pic related is the cable. It's been plugged in for more than a few weeks no problem, however today while I was downloading Visual studio a USB power surge occurred, or at least that's what the notification said. Now when it's plugged in it somehow turns off my keyboard and my mouse.
I know the USB is fine, as I tested it, but I don't know if the cable is fried or the mic itself.
Which laptop should i buy?
It needs to be something decent enough to play dota 2 etc, and nice monitor for my tv series
>>52589309
Restart the system and try a different USB port. Then try again. It might also be worth noting that my Blue Yeti has done odd things with cheap USB cables before (storage static iirc).
So how much do you pay for internet and mobile data, /g/? What are you getting out of it?
I live in a third world shithole so internet speed is atrocious. Pic related is my home WiFi speed, it is that bad.
I pay equivalent of $6 a month for it so not complaining much.
Also pay another $6 monthly for my 4G mobile hotspot (if you can call. 10Mbps "4G") , both unlimited bandwidth of course.
Lastly $4 to the mobile telco Jew for 4GB of data.
>>52589180
What shithole country is this?
£20
One Plan, basically unlimited 4g and plenty of minutes and texts
Mine is 110kb/s downloading, so yeah, always think that you could be worse
Alright nerds, are there 3 or 4 sticks in this image?
it's a geometrical-optical illusion. these got kind of cliché by the time I was 12 but I guess everyone turns 12 at some point.
There are none.

This one is old as dirt, OP.
SPOILER: get as close to the monitor as possible, almost touching it with your nose, then shake your head from side to side, and in about 10 seconds you will know the answer.
Please spoonfeed me.
I want a tiny sized netbook/notebook that can read visual novels for Win and browse the internet and will last for a very long time, at least until I die
is anything at all like this?
just get a cheapo chink tablet f a m
Such a thing doesn't exist, tablet/smartphone tards killed their market and ultrabook hipsters killed their design.
>>52587182

>>52587189
ah dammit
What do you think Windows 95 tastes like?
>>52587052
Like a thousand heavenly heavens.
It tastes suspiciously like Sapporo Black Label

Most people use the Internet only to see and do stupid things. It seems that it has got even more stupid year after year. Can it get any worse or have we reached the ultimate low?
it will get a whole lot worse before it gets better

Is this fucking real? Tell me it's photoshopped
>>52586686
We definitely haven't reached rock bottom yet
Which piece of tech that you own defines who you are?
I recently came out of the closet. To commemorate the occasion, I have purchased a pink iPhone.
I have a rMBP, iPhone, iPad, etc...
I can't think of any possessions that I'm delusional enough to say defines me. Sounds like something an anti-apple zealot would project.
