Dress in a maid outfit and use a feather duster.
My wife's birthday is coming up soon, and she says she wants a BBC. Is this still a viable phone to use in 2016? The only apps she really needs are instagram and tinder.
>>52446072
Your wife sure is getting a BBC tonight :^)
I don't think she was talking about a cell phone OP

Remember that Alpine is not a GNU/Linux distro, but a Linux distro.
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...

Firefox is being a bitch and wont load any profiles, nor create a new profile.Its always "inaccessible or missing".
How do i fix this shit.
I've deleted .mozilla and set its permissions to +rwx when firefox regenerates it, but there is no profile in it, it wont make a default profile

Hey /g/, I don't mean to be a bother, but I was wondering if any of you guys knew much about laptop/tablet hybrids.
I'm looking to buy one primarily for university work; it is important that my notes are hand written, but can still use regular programs to work on reports and other assessment pieces. In order of what are the most valuable features to me are: Responsiveness of screen when using a stylus > battery life > portability = price. I don't plan on playing any games or video editing, so performance wise it can be pretty average.
I have done some searching on the internet about it and haven't really been able to find much info on these things. Hopefully you guys are in the know and can help me out. Thank you guys in advance, any help is very much appreciated.

Is there any benefit to keeping Linux and Windows partitions on separate disks?
Less disks to deal with

If one disk dies you still have the other.

why is there no app that converts almost anything without internet?
i mean, if it can be done on a server, why not in an app?
i'm willing to download a 200mb app for that.
Software as a service. This is the future you chose.

Running software on the client side is a massive security risk.
All computing will be like this in 10 years from now.
The era of application software running on the client side is over.

Anyone have experience disassembling a D-Link DIR868L Router? I can't seem to figure out if I'm supposed be able to take the top cover off or how to even take it off.
If you can't even figure out opening up a plastic container what the fuck do you expect to do when you get in there?
>>52445426
Because sometimes it's not as simple as unscrewing all the screws, there's barely, if any service documentation I can find on this router. You'd know if you owned this model
>>52445404
Hey man, I just thought I'd let you know that there's this really awesome website where you can enter a subject, phrase, even a very specific question like how to disassemble a D-Link DIR868L Router! It's free too! It's got some ads here and there as it is run by an advertising company, but the ads aren't too over-bearing like many websites have. Heck, their unofficial motto is "don't be evil" so you know they're cool.
Anyway, if you are interested in a site that...

So Polaris and Pascal are coming out mid 2016 apparently.
That's a die shrink from 28 to 14/16nm.
In a thread before, this guy said this:
>>>52434950 (OP)
>Top-tier Pascals will be 20% better than the 980ti at best. Besides, when the Pascals finally come out, people will tell you to wait for the next ones.
Could this be true? Only 20% more performance?
Apparently we'll get twice the number of transistors:...

this thing isn't coming in 2016
It is going to be very many performance gains. Yes Goy. It will run all the games at maximum power. Now sit and wait for the new product.
>>52445237
I'm not expecting much. Last time there was any meaningful upgrade was with the Nvidia 8800 family.
