What are to your tech-related New Year's resolutions for 2016?
I will start doing backups and learn Go.
Back up and restore my iMac for the first time in the 8 years I've been using it.

My resolution is to stop falling for /g/ memes

Get a domain that isn't a meme so that I don't look like a retard when I send out my resume.
Hello /g/ents, I'm in need of a bit of advice, I've done some research on thermal pastes, and I'm at a fork in the road, it basically comes down to two models, gelid gc-3 extreme, and prolimatech pk-3. Any anon had experience with either/both? Which is better?

I keep forgetting that /g/ is the last place I should come to for any actual advice.

Only a cuck would choose oculus over vive
t. knower
We will know in 6 days, at CES
Im looking forward to whatever one is cheaper and supports more games. Since oculus is only sdds on support to games in house . The htc or sony ones look more promising.
Hey guys! I have an idea. Dealing with batteries is so complicated for the end-user. How about making them non-removable? GENUIS!
I hate dealing with batteries. I hope one day we can have nuclear powered laptops that need to recharge only every 20 years.
Wouldn't that be nice?
I've never been able to remove a battery from an iphone without puncturing it. Plastice tools aren't strong enough to pry it from the glue and metal tools always rupture them. The best advice is to just drain the battery before you remove it.

Oh hi there, David Hahn.
I got a new GPU and PSU recently and all was well until about 15 minutes into any vidya that has graphics better that like Terraria. Screen goes green while the last sound that played out of the speakers goes on a horrendous loop, then a full restart occurs.
I thought it was a matter of temperature at first, but it's happened even when overall, my system is fairly cool during a game.
This is the GPU:

Is there any remnants of your old video card, like programs, etc? First thing is I would uninstall the current drivers and reinstall the most recent ones and see what it does.
I doubt the PSU is the issue, I bet anything it is GPU and driver related.

Also, try to reseat your video card and make sure all your PSU connectors are secure and seated correctly. Also check your RAM and make sure none of it got nudged when you installed everything.
Why do iPhone/iPad users keep taking shit from Apple?
>I think it’s different. Part of the reason Microsoft ran into an issue was that they didn’t want to walk away from legacy stuff.
>Apple has always had the discipline to make the bold decision to walk away. We walked away from the floppy disk when that was popular with many users. Instead of doing things in the more traditional way of diversifying and minimizing risk, we took out the optical drive, which some people loved. We changed our connector, even...

Has working at Apple, Microsoft, Google, Facebook, became a meme? I remember when everyone dreamed to work at one of these companies, yet nowadays I rarely meet anyone who is actually interested in them.

Does it happen booting into safemode too?
Use hitmanpro too
Just installed a freshly wall mounted 40" LED tv in my bedroom. Currently deciding whether to purchase a Roku streaming stick or Amazon Fire Stick. They both seem nearly identical, and currently the Roku is selling for the same price, so that isn't a factor.
Not sure if I'm putting a cable box up there, but I believe I can use my cable subscription for both to receive certain on demand channels.
Anyone own either? Preferences on interface, wifi connection issues/range? Any and all advice will be appreciated /g/entoomen.
I have the Roku box 3 it works great I use it for Netflix HBO GO in my bedroom got a nice little remote ton of channels even a free porn tube one(nowhereporn) if that's what you're interested in I live in a three story house router in the basement Roku box on 3rd floor no connectivity issues always works like it's supposed to no experience with the Amazon product use it every night no issues.
Get the fire stick and install Kodi on it with 3rd party add-ons.

2nd this, plus you get prime video if that's your thing.
why >>python is the best language ever for a hacker
because it's a scripting language with a live IDE
>>52161387
what about C ?
>>52161387
So do ruby and node, probably just cause it has better packages for it

what's your excuse not to?

if your in college and taking pretty much any stem related field, even if you're at a local college, you most likely have access to a elms account. i got my copy of 10 education for free from my elms account i got from my cs department. enterprise / education allow all the botnet shit to be disabled.

It's much less of a botnet, yes, but Microsoft is the NSA PRISM corporation, so you bet your scrawny little ass they have a backdoor pre-installed.
What does /g/ think of LinkedIn?
Is it just Facebook for business?
I received an "I'd like to add you to my professional network on LinkedIn" email (i.e., friend request), and my first thought was, "Oh, X is looking for a new job, and plans to leave the company."
Also, get a load of the fine print at the bottom of the email: because my friend referred me, LinkedIn assumes the right to use my email address now.

all the things that are awful about facebook and all the things that are awful about "professional networking", all rolled into one

Garbage. Sad to think such a shitty site could potentially prevent someone from landing a life changing opportunity just because they didn't have an account at that rusty shithole.
