Hey /g/, I'm looking for an HD CRT TV for my ps3 and older consoles (and possibly ps4 if I get one). My question is do 720p / 1080i CRT tv's have input lag? I remember reading somewhere that some HD CRT TV's have input lag and that to get rid of it you have to change some post process settings in a service menu.
Also on a side note I'd be completely willing to play on a CRT monitor but from all the research I've done there seems to be no way to get ps3 to look good and output anything over 480p on a CRT monitor.
Probably not any worse lag than a standard LCD HDTV, if any.

Well one of the reasons I want a CRT is the basically zero input lag. I know your typical SD 480i CRT's have basically zero input lag, if I could get 720p or 1080i with zero input lag and CRT contrast and colors I'd be pretty damn pleased.
>>52243099
Just get a nice LCD HDTV.
CRT TVs are deprecated, and the cost of ownership and initial cost of purchase is too high to justify it. Picture quality is worse, and you would be limited to 720p.
My personal NSA tracking device aka smartphone finally died. Need a new phone quick and am poorfag.
No chink shit, I don't live in the US so shipping to my country is $$$. Brick and mortar stores are life.
Don't mind physical keyboards or even meme hacker phones, just as long as it can access the internet fine.
P.S. last phone was windows phone, as shown in pic :^)
>using a windows device
wow op you're a fucking idiot. why haven't you created a bsd-based os for your device? are you too stupid to do so? lol fucking scrub
>>52243167
Sounds like a good idea anon! Would you recommend some hardware for that?
In a pinch here, need a new phone in a couple days time, can't even find a /g/ guide and the wiki is skint on phone info.
How do we get more women in technology /g/? I propose we start by firing lots of white males and replacing them with more diverse people.
she's cute, i'd let her take my job any day
>>52243003

>>52243024

Richard Sapper, Designer Of IBM's ThinkPad, Has Died.
>>52242739
He died like, 6 days ago. Everyone's already mourned him.
>>52242739
Good riddance

This is the first I heard. You're right though, thread is a bit late.

RIP

How does such a thing even happen?
Holy fuck, what card was that?
XP Pro SP2 on a Dell Dimension 4600i keeps permanently freezing at log in screen even after disabling all non-essential services, disabling all start up programs and checking the drive for bad sectors.
Boots up normally in safe mode. Any ideas?
>>52242523
open cmd
sfc /scannow
>>52242523
Anything in the Event Viewer?
>>52242537
>>52242550
I actually can't boot into safe mode now, its hanging here indefinitely.
All the posts about not using gapps... If you don't use gmail and YouTube. What do I use?
Those people all have autism, everyone knows that google is just fine and that not using gapps just makes you a tryhard faggot.
Just use them and be a normal person.
Go gapps on your Android cripples it into pointlessness. Just use gApps.
>>52242510
don't use your phone for email or youtube
these things are difficult to do in a privacy-respecting way on a desktop, it's virtually impossible on a phone.
I am going to win this competition.

http://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2016/01/04/mark-zuckerbergs-2016-challenge-code-an-artificial-intelligence-assistant/
This year, Mark Zuckerberg wants to be more like Tony Stark. In a Facebook post Sunday, the social network’s founder and chief executive said his personal challenge for 2016 is to build an assistant powered by artificial intelligence to help him at home and work. “You can think of it kind of like Jarvis in Iron Man,” Mr. Zuckerberg wrote, referring to the AI assistant used by Mr. Stark,...

What?
Is he writing it or is he having some contest for other people to write it?
He can't write shit
Thats laughable that he thinks he can
Sounds like he just wants a slave.

>Is he writing it or is he having some contest for other people to write it?
He's writing it. I do agree that it's laughable that he thinks he can just teach himself neural networks in a matter of days. We'll see.
When will technology make life not be painful /g/

Get sunlight. Get exercise. Get healthy food. Get antidepressants.
But just get off of /g/
This picture accurately represented my life at one point in time. Totally can't be a coincidence. Why is it that your life devolves to this path if you're able to have a place, don't have to work, and are addicted to the internet?
Once there is a tech that will allow me to remove all piss bottles and trash/food/alcohol bottles from my room without leaving any sort of trace then life will be better.
is there anything that is NOT a botnet?

Say I get a paid VPN like PIA or torguard.
What are the odds that their IP addresses will be banned on 4chan?
(Not for shitposting but I want to start using a VPN but don't want banned shit everywhere)

/g/ you're breaking my heart with these lies
So I slapped together my first self-constructed desktop PC, and it runs like an absolute dream.
A very stationary 2-foot tall fifty pound dream.
I find myself missing the portability of a laptop for work purposes especially since I plan on being on the road a good bit soon, and I was wondering if anyone had some advice for what kind of laptop would be best for:
- Video and audio editing
- 2d/3d Animation
- Digital sketching/painting
- and gaming of course.
Kind of a mixed work/entertainment machine.
I've been looking at the MSI GT72 or possibly the workstation WT72 with the Quadro graphics card, but I'm not sure which would be better. Also considering the Alienware 17 or the latest Asus ROG.
Any insight or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. What's the best portable gaming and creative device out there?
if money is not am issue why not the cintiq companion 2?
I do like the cintiq companion, but I'm looking for something to replace the desktop as my primary computer, so I need the storage and power of a full laptop instead of the tablet.

>2d/3d Animation

what kind of retarded laptop do you want ?

hey /g/entlemen,
I managed to break the encryption scheme for post-2009 rock band .moggs.
I know this was something people wanted a few years ago, but does anyone even care anymore?
for an example see anonfiles b3ef8e5f626c108f285f6e2cad2a3879
>>52241976
>does anyone even care anymore?
idunno, with Guitar Hero making a comeback maybe they will soon. Either talk to /biz/ or try and hunt down the Rock Band modding community, just please, avoid /v/.
>>52242123
The mod community seems to have been satisfied with custom songs which work up through Rock Band 3, and probably have no need for decryption anymore.
Thought I'd see if anyone was still interested from a programming/reverse engineering standpoint.
>>52241976
If that mean you can get the separated bass/guitar/voice tracks I'm intrusted
How does a computer science degree translate to the real world when it comes to programming for a living?
The degree isn't what gets you a job OP it's what you learn. If you fully utilize your universities resources and become a decent programmer, you'll get a job. If you just coast through your coursework, you'll probably have a hard time.
It makes getting job interviews much easier!
Just make sure you do your own projects while in school.
Is it too late to sign up for summer internships?
