Actually the one advantage that it has was that it was a unix box that also had a fantastic desktop environment. Unlike certain other "like-unix" operating systems which, though still stable, have absolutely horrendous GUIs and desktop environments.

Is it really enough to overwrite my disk with one pass zeroes?
Is then everything gone like file names, dates, type etc
>>52087345
Yes

For what purpose?
Resale?
Throwing it away?

Do I need to worry about BIOS updates when buying a board for a G3258? PCPartPicker says that pretty much any H81/B85 board may need an update, but the boards and CPUs have been out for quite a while..

What kind of fucking retard is buying a G3258 in 2016-5 days?

Smart people

this, or any fucking dual core desktop cpu 2015/6 -5 for that matter
So, I just ordered an 850 EVO. What am I in for?
failure in a few months
don't waste those precious writes
Good decision, owner of one reporting in. Make sure to set BIOS up properly (AHCI on, IIRC) and since like two weeks we've got Windows 10 support so Rapid mode can be engaged.

"to go over the writes limit, you have to do something like 5GB of writes a day for 5 years."

Would the FX-8350 be a worthwhile upgrade over the FX-6350? Specifically for gay men. I my GPU is an R9 290.
I'm being told by people that my CPU is bottle necking my GPU, but I'm not sure how true that is.
Intel shills please leave me alone, I don't want to hear about how much better your processors are. I'm just asking about those two.
Thanks.
No.
You are not being bottlenecked by the CPU.
Well technically you are but it's inconsequential.
>>52086457
I'll help you, goy, but I need you to answer some questions for me. The first is why did you buy AMD?
>>52086457
you aint gonna get better fps with the upgrade if that's what you're asking.
The games that struggle on a 6350 will struggle on a 8350.
Do some research next time.
I work in a sketchy financial industry and my boss wants me to set up a a database that stores SSNs, tax IDs, and bank account info. How bad of an idea is this?
My plan was to keep a simple cipher script on a flash drive, and then hash the enciphered numbers client side through a database gui. That way, even if the machines were compromised, it would appear to the attacker that he obtained valid information.
Still, I think the legal implications of a data breach are enormous even though I doubt my boss understands or gives a shit. This seems like a pretty secure...

Why the fuck are you asking /g/? this is well over your head, let someone who knows what they are doing deal with it.
>>>/trash/
>>52086689
The actual programming isn't over my head, I'm just not familiar industry security standards and legal implications of a failure. Besides, right now all of this information is stored on a mail server as outlook attachments that any employee can access remotely, so it's not like I can make the situation any worse. I'm pretty much only concerned about my own potential liability, and I figured their may be some db admins in the finance industry on here.
>>52086319
Use a MySQL/Postgres. There are tons of security features, no need to create your own.
Reasons you don't fucking "upgrade" to Windows 10.

It's free because the user is the product microsoft is selling to advertising companies.
