is 1080p ever enough on a phone? should anyone advocating 1440p get shot at sight?
I doubt you can even tell the difference @ 720p
>>52441654
This. I can't tell a difference in pixel density on my 1080x1920 Xperia and 750x1334 6s.

>>52441615
connect it to your central air in your house, it should warm up the place nicely.

Need some answers /g/ got caught trying to leave work with an SSD and was going to be fired until one of my cowrokers told me i could resign and leave a letter saying i'm basically quitting to find work elsewhere. I told my manager and he seemed to be okay with the idea, so basically i had two options either i quit on good terms or let them fire me with bad letter.I filled the letter of resignation and everything seems to be okay while i start looking for work elsewhere, will this bite me in the ass when using previous job as reference? I hear they can't give out any...

10+ years CS here, and I still do that. Habit. Back from a time where it wasn't around and I can usually pull it up with just "go" in the search bar.
Once you get into an automated trance of processes to help streamline your workflow, small stuff like that actually doesn't matter.
Oh, wait, you're a student. I see. You'll learn.
Linux user here, learning how to use windows for work.
I already know i can use ssh- X to remotely run my nix apps from anywhere. Is there a way to view Windows apps on Nix*?
So far all i can see is RDP which moves the entire desktop.
>*nix apps
>apps
TeamViewer. Free as long as it's for "personal" purposes (not commercial). Not open source though, either .rpm or .deb installer on the Linux side. Works like a charm though
>>52441077
>TeamViewer
Thats a full desktop forwarder. I am trying to find something that can pipe a programs windows.
Daily reminder that available RAM is wasted RAM.

>B-but muh minimalism, muh bloat
But I mean if your browser is using 2 GB of RAM doing something like three pages, that probably is a problem.

>>52440680
It looks kinda bad but it's better than the average consumer laptop. It's probably the only consumer laptops form 10 years ago that still look good.
>>52440771
Most windows laptops are still gaudy as fuck
>>52440680
I wish there was a universal standard for laptop mobos so I could just put modern parts in the old macbook pro case.
What's your favorite RMS moment / video / quote / speech / whatever?
Mine is when someone introduces him as the "father of open source" and he reacts angrily saying, "if I am the father of open source, it's with stolen sperm" - I wish I had that video, it's somewhere on YouTube but I can't locate it now.
Let's have a comfy RMS thread with good RMS media, pictures, etc.
Nobody cares about my thread, it will die without a single reply.

What if an organized group of hackers would hack into nuclear command control centers, and provoke a nuclear exchange?
Former commander of U.S. nuclear forces says that it's a very big threat:

Has anyone had experience getting negative search results on your name shed down?
I triggered some folks on Tumblr several years ago and it appears when my name is searched for. If I start making profiles on twitter, Google plus etc will they push those search results down duevery to the gap in time?
>>52440332
Delete your facebook, tumblr, twitter, instagram, periscope. your only profiles are github, stackoverflow and eventually linkedin.
Yuros have the right to forget.
You have the right to get cucked.
>>52440332
This and create tens of different fake profiles with your name. If it isn't clear which profile tumblarinas refer to, everything ends in a cacaphony. It's called drown what you can't kill.
I am almost out of college and I still cant fucking code. I know some basic Java and some Visual Basic. No Android experience, no JEE stuff, no Webdev. What the fuck do I have to learn to get a job? I do know design patterns, algorithms and all the theoretic stuff though.
>>52440331
Work on some project like an android app.
bald man meme lol
>>52440370
Yeah, but what field is the easiest to get into if you almost have a degree?
I think Webdev is full of teenage freelancers, right? You have to learn a lot (from 20 years of HTML(5), CSS and the two huge bloated languages that are Javascript and PHP) and always be up to date, cuz its the front end, right?
Isn't Android the same? What about iOS? Swift just came out, so not many people know it. But I don't know how much ObjC I need.
And what about Java Enterprise Edition?
