What image tagging application do you use? I've been wanting to tag my growing collection of (mostly animu), but the default Windows image tagger is horrible. The main problem is that it can't tag images that aren't .jpg or .bmp. Is there a lightweight, free image tagging application that people use?

Mostly anime hunh? Well no shit. Don't want to tag pictures of your girlfriend, friend, life events? Just anime... and lots of it...

There's one that I forget what it's but it's part of some windows update. It's pretty fast and lightweight.

Welcome to the botnet.
That's why I use chromium instead :^)

you already posted this twice earlier today

Luckily I live in a 3rd world country so no one gives a fuck what you do on the net
I turned the computer off with a 1360 x 768 resolution, turned it back on and it has this shitty resolution instead. What the hell happened?

Daily Reminder to all meme Computer Science students:
You need to learn Parallel Programming, Operating Systems, Artificial Intelligence Machine Learning, Cryptography,Compilers, and Data Mining to not be a meme.
By "learn", I mean don't just passing tests in class or reading a textbook. Actually implement it in a real project.
>>52109543
also don't be a Web Dev bitch, that shit takes weeks to learn
Daily Reminder to op:
You need to stop being a faggot
i didn't even study cs in school and I know all that stuff. meme bitch
What are your personal experiences/thoughts on the chiclet style keyboards? I see some of them are highly reviewed.
I've always used oem rubber dome style tactile ones, but I found pic related for $20 on discount (Karura 502).
they're comfy as fuck but ultimately less functional than mechanicals
>>52109528
they vary a lot, in my experience, some laptops have really good keyboards like that, and some have really shitty ones
>>52109528
Only place they make sense is on a laptop where there are space constraints. It's hilarious to see them in a full-sized keyboard. Very uncomfortable IMO.
does /g/ trust Kingston products like memories and SSD?
if not, what products do you trust?
Intel, Samsung, and Crucial.
I'd rather have a Silicon Power ssd than Kingston
>>52109168
SanDisk is pretty good too. They have been making flash for a long time, before SSDs entered the market.
I've developed an algorithm for creating passwords that I know by heart and have applied to over 100 accounts all over the place. Recently, I've been thinking that a password manager is more scalable and safe than my brain. Should I adopt one /g/? Are you using one yourself?
No, I'm not, albeit I've been thinking about it for some time now. Guess I'll give it a shot, but not sure about the best alternative. Sorry I can't be of help, and thanks (even if it was not your intention, and it sure wasn't) for posting this thread. It can be of help for me as well. At least I hope it does (still, we better be prepared for the worst, considering that no one posted in this very thread yet (besides me and, of course, you, the OP)).
No. I have a system based on a combination of attributes from the site's homepage that can only get tripped up when they redesign every few years. Password managers are the easy way out and I still don't trust them as it creates a single point of failure.
Scalable, yes.
Safer, no.
I use 1Password since I'm a pleb who enjoys the convenience, but I have no illusions of safety.
Welcome in advance to the paranoid mcdonalds workers with 5 guns and to that Miku fag.
I took anon's advice and got a card wallet. Feels like it's not even there when I'm walking around.

suggestions?
What happened to this place? Why are they going under/where did they fall off?
They just lost at buisness.
>>52108980
Just like Sato Musen. Is it the cat mascots?

newegg
keep in mind, newegg isn't good anymore, and hasn't been for a few years
it's just newegg is specifically what made tigerdirect look like shit, for about a decade now

What do you /g/uys think of Vivaldi?
Seems faster in Beta 2.
It uses Chrome apps and extensions? How is that legal?
>It uses Chrome apps and extensions?
So it's shit.
>>52108805
It's pretty skinned UI over Chrome's Blink engine. Many browsers based on Chromium can use Chrome extensions including Chropera and Sleipnir. Vivaldi's still proprietary though, and I doubt faster than what I use.

That's why you go through this shit only once, then create the system image, put it in a comfy, safe place and use whenever needed. Homo.

Yeah, hindsight is a wonderful thing.

I think that I finally see the light. What are some good alternatives to the following:
GMail
Google Search
Android phone
Chrome
Please, and thank you. I am starting to cut out Google from my life little by little. It's now one of my 2016 resolutions.
protonmail or host your own
duckduckgo, disconnect, or startpage
custom ROMs (AOKP, CyanogenMod, ParanoidAndroid, etc.), BB10, dumbphone, or no phone
Firefox or one of its forks
We should all remove the botnet from our lives for the next current year
Tutanota
Disconnect.me/Startpage/Qwant
CM13/Exodus AOSP/Replicant or Ubuntu Touch, Blackberry, Firefox (dead), Sailfish (dead)
Iridium (less botnetty if out of date Chromium), Firefox and its forks, Seamonkey, Otter Browser, QtWeb, Dooble
Note: with Firefox you get the best extensions
my girlfriend today send me a link of her google drive, today dropbox spam me some email -.-

IBM's Synapse is pretty ballin. Non Von Neumann architectures are the only thing that will bring about another radical paradigm shift in performance for conventional ICs. Probably one of the most ambitious projects ever undertaken in computing.
>/g/ not caring about actual technology
Why is /g/ such a pleb board
The Thinkpad X250 looks the best and seems durable, but super expensive performance wise.
The new Dell XPS 13 looks good but in comparison it's flimsy as shit and the screen is a bit wobbly = no go.
Macbook Pros are nice of course, but the current model is old and nothing new seems to be on the horizon.
Is there ANY current laptop worth spending money on at the moment?
If you're going to spend that much on a laptop, what I think would be the better option would be to build a $800 desktop guyming rig and then buy a $800 laptop.
>>52108480
macbook pro
>>52108527
This is always a good option but may not fulfill your needs.
Anyways, there are always machines worth spending money on. The question is do you truly need a new laptop right now? Purchases shouldn't be justified just because you're willing to part with 1600 for the latest and greatest. Those two options you listed are dangerously consumerish stuff. It's probably better to save some more and look into business laptops or gaming laptops.
