why are DDR4 latencies so shit?
>>51966431
Compared to?
>>51966431
You should probably look up what those words mean before you try to use them.
CL14 @ 3200 is lower latency than anything DDR3 ever touched.
>>51966504
you have to compare apples to apples at the same frequency. DDR3 timings are like 8-8-8-XX

what does /g/ think of plasma?
>>51965888
Depends on the temperature
>>51965888
I think plasma is cool.
Plasma is considered the fourth state of matter. The three other states are solid, liquid, and gas. Plasma is a cloud of protons, neutrons and electrons where all the electrons have come loose from their respective molecules and atoms, giving the plasma the ability to act as a whole rather than as a bunch of atoms. A plasma is more like a gas than any of the other states of matter because the atoms are not in constant contact with each other, but it behaves differently from a gas. It has...

So I fucked up... Last night I started hearing clicking sounds from my computer and figured that it must be my almost a decade old HDD dying (which was empty). I went on watching a movie and today I realized it was my 1TB Samsung that was clicking. Immediately at boot it died and I lost all of my personal files with it. All photos, IRC logs, CV... basically everything I've stored on various HDDs since 90s.
Now is there anything that I can do to even recover some of it?
inb4 learn to backup
tech support threads belong on /wsr/
>>51965789
you can try tools like ddrescue
But yeah, >learn to backup
Storage medium is fragile, put your data in at least 3 locations.
yeah, some expensive as process you can pay someone to do to run a different head over it I think, and even then I don't think data recovery will be 100%
For how much longer will the optical disc industry survive?
I'm giving it at least 10 more years. I don't see a way to effectively distribute 4k movies.
4k netflix is not anywhere near the quality of the upcoming 4k blurays.
>>51965647
It'll be around for quite a while, dual layer blu ray holds 50gb, There are also triple and quad layer discs holding 75 and 100gb.
Currently a 2 hour 4k movie is about 50gb, so it'll still be the preferred format for distribution for a while
>>51965647
>I don't see a way to effectively distribute 4k movies.
MicroSD cards
>>51965708
Not at their current price, a 64gb is $20.
Ofcorse its cheaper then that to make but not cheaper then a blu ray disc
Could you explain me how ban system works on 4chin?
Mods have tab over each post and can choose right click ban or what?
Is it possible that some mongloid mod is trying bo ban somebody for illegal stuff but he accidentally ban person that posted below and did not violate any rules?
>>51965642
Yes and they also ban shit thread creators, the best move is never posting again or you'll get banned and never be able to post again.
>>51966044
>they also ban shit thread creators
So why is /g/ so fucking bad then?
I hate word bans were you post a link or word that warns you, but not telling you what word. So you post again and get banned.
Speccy thread
Sure.

Daily reminder that having a home server is a sign of mental illness.
In most cases alone, degenerate people are trying to give their lifes a purporse and they get something that they call "home servers". They waste their entire days on playing with it instead of having normal interaction with friends and family. Such people doesn't have a job and are close to suiciding.
Pic rel, typical home server owner.
>>51965198
What exactly is the point of a home server? Could I create my own personal ISP with enough power?
this is accurate
So I got a computer from some shady craigslist dude for $50. Naturally, want to completely wipe my hard drive using DBAN or some equivalent. Normally I'd just install some linux distro afterwards, but this computer is for my mom, who can barely do basic shit like check her email.
I'm wondering if it will still be possible to install Windows 10 for free after I do this? As of now I have the option to "update to windows 10," but it obviously won't be there after I wipe the drive.
I don't want to wipe the drive and then have a computer...

Run the upgrade, then wipe the drive and do a clean install.
Upgrading gives you a license locked to the computer's hardware, should be able to activate a clean install afterwards.
we now have a tech support board called /wsr/
please go there

Would it theoretically be possible to design computers or hardware specifically for use in digital warfare against governments? A powerful physical LOIC of sorts
Inb4 knock on the door
Bump
Possible and already happening. On the hardware side, we already have ruggedized laptops for field use, and specialised software such as that documented by Snowdens leaks.
On a less subtle basis, you can look at china's attack on github utilising the great firewall infra to trigger a country scale ddos.

What the fuck does the ruggedness of a laptop matter? It's not an assault rifle
Hi guy's, I want to buy my first laptop and I'm noob, I got like 800€ to spend on it, not more. I want to play gta5,fallout, the new Tombrider, etc and in general 2015-2016 games... Is a good config and what parts are good and what is not so good on this laptop.
Laptop Asus F550JX-DM169D
Ty guys and pls help me with some advice what to buy in my budget. Ty and I'm waiting ur opinions. Ty
For gaming, buy a desktop. and build it yourself, that is the best value for money: http://www.logicalincrements.com/
you could split the 800€ into a budget for a desktop AND cheap laptop and still likely getter better performance out of the desktop than a 'gaming' laptop
P. S. I need a laptop not a desktop cause I will travel...
