how do you usually dispose old HDDs?
is pic related recoverable by FBI or other jews?
>>52353396
Yes.
Take the disks out and cut them up with scissors into confetti.

It's much easier to remove the plate
(ie see the round circular thing in the middle of the hard drive).
Going to a local steel mill and asking them to melt it.
I just smash the platters with a hammer then melt the pieces in my forge, then recycle the rest.

How prebuilt is your pc?
if you could get back every dollar you've ever spent on your personal pc/pc's what would you do differently right now with all of it?
Personally? I'd buy one of the newer ultrabooks with USB-Type C and an external GPU(One of the many seen at CES) to be able to come home and game on the same machine I've been carrying around with me all day

Every dollar I've ever spent on my computers (including lab)?
Honestly, I don't know. I got most of it for free, and sold a bunch more.
So I guess nothing, because it's an income generator or something...
>>52353112
Smaller case, less fans, bigger SSD
>>52353112
spend the money i spent on underpowered laptops and use it to buy a better processor
emulation still hurts on this pc
So 7Zip resurrected from dead, but is it any good?
How does 7Zip 15.14 compare to WinRAR 5.30 performance wise?
I remember my faggot friend wanted to look up a video, but for some reason ended up installing winrar
(I already had 7zip)
What a fucking nigger holy shit
I kicked him out of my house for that
Winrar is ass terrible
>>52353072
>Winrar is ass terrible
Why?
>>52352837
7zip was never dead it was just stable
only windows children need deed dedicated GUIs to do this shit, adults have stable libraries supporting filetypes that get updated when necessary not just for the sake of it
>He calls the console shell
I bet you play video games with your sister and incessantly nag at her what to do every minute even though she's fully aware she's suppose to grab that ledge to her left and climb up it and ask that dude with the hat where to go next.
>>52352813
>he calls the terminal emulator a console
>>52352813
The console is the program that displays the shell
What are some TOP tier android apps someone must have?
Im more interested at security related application, and non placebo shitware.
Share what you got.
btw, is Clean Master really useful? Does it do the job its supposed to do?
>>52352783
snapchat
Clash of clans
Sleep As Android
How do I clean cum off of a mouse mat?
At least I think that is.
gross OP
Ask your sister.

pirate bay is down
what is going on?
who knows, why the fuck do you use that site anyway, it's rated higher than it really is
>>52352189
hands down
all other sites are simply retarder and bloated
>>52352223
just like your mom
What sort of processor should I get to best aid my 1080P gaming needs? What matters more in a processor, cores or ghz? Best budget gaming processor? I'm aware that video card matters more than processor, it's just that i have a crappy dual core that no longer works well to aid my gaming.
>>52352156
You could grab an old amd quadcore x4 for like 50
That would be an update
>>52352156
Intel Pentium G3258
start off by telling us your budget, current cpu, current mobo
Where do you get your warez? I cant torrent. Anyone know of any good direct download sites?
You can't click on a magnet link?
>>52352008
I've seen those but never clicked them. What do they do?

Are you from 2005 buddy?
so /g/, do you think computer performance is slowly grinding to a halt?
>>52351960
Not enough competition. Wait until Zen is released to see a surge. Even if Zen isn't good, Intel is going to want to have new CPU's.
>>52351960
Why would you think that? Every year the new shit becomes obsolete, if anything we're going 2fast
>>52352006
I'm just talking about how moore's law can only allow so much compactness in components to allow for better performance that the wall will finally be hit. Manufacturers will have to deliberately slow down performance progress while waiting for something better to replace the current transistor technology.
what is the current state of the tech industry?
its busy purging white heterosexual males, and to a lesser extent asian men.
Trying to meet their minority quotas. Also budget cuts to many companies mean they can't afford a loo. The employees don't mind though

How would one go about installing Linux on a Win98 laptop that doesn't have a USB option in Bios boot and doesn't boot up into Win98.
>>52351615
>laptop that doesn't have a USB option in Bios
What CPU does it have? If it's 286 you're out of luck.
>>52351615
i've done this before
DD the linux iso to the laptop's hard disk.
Then use a usb->ide adaptor to connect a hard disk that you actually want to install linux to on it.
Boot the dd hard disk, run the installer to install to the usb hard disk.
When done, swap the disks.
What does /g/ think about fitness trackers?
Smart watches are becoming a new trend but I don't see them as more valuable than the data provided by something like a fitbit.

Enjoy your voluntary electronic shackles.
consumer shit.
not interested in wearables until i can get some dilapidated electronics surgically implanted in a back alley .

It's fun, I feel like a little prisoner wherever I go.
