Seriously, just run a few static ads, no flash, no scripts, no trackers. No one will care.

Learning C++ again; I didn't know it very well before but not is the time, for employability and exposure reasons.
It's pretty neat but a little complicated.

Do cheap SSDs worthy?
I was wondering if those inexpensive drives are shit or if they could be a good option for a budget.
>>51692086
Cheap SSDs are shit and will only last you a couple years at best before they start deteriorating. Buy the samshills, they're genuine quality.
>>51692086
Nope, they're trash. Stick with Samsung, Crucial, or Intel if you want to support the Jew.
>>51692086
It depends on a lot of stuff. MLC or modern TLC based drives should mostly be fine, even the slower ones, if coming from an HDD. Past that a lot of it is likely to be luck - I've read that some of the Patriot SSDs for instance just flat out fail within a few hours.
Is it impossible to run GNU/Linux on laptops in 2015?
What happens when our old thinkpads are too slow/break down?
I know the XPS line kinda supports ubuntu, but what about other distros, or other dell models?
We need to compile a list of post 2014 laptops that fully support all distros.

Are you really telling me that Solitaire in Windows 10 is full of interstitial ads, and no one gives a fuck? Are people so oblivious of the future that awaits normies, where every part of their OS will be spying on them and showing them ads based on the files on their computer and the software they run and they're "fine with it", cause it's free?
What the fuck is going on in the tech world?
What the fuck is up with society?
It'll get worse in the coming years if no one puts a stop to this.
>>51696913
Microsoft Solitaire Collection has had ads since day 1 on the Windows Store (Windows 8 times).
You are free to not use the OS. Stop whining like a 15 years old girl.

You chose this by installimg windows. Install gentoo instead.

Christ, I boot Windows for the games, faggots. It's not like I'm using this crap. I'm talking about those who do.
My clicking finger is starting to hurt.

kek, i just found this reading about raid1 on wiki
>In practice, the drives are often the same age (with similar wear) and subject to the same environment. Since many drive failures are due to mechanical issues (which are more likely on older drives), this violates the assumptions of independent, identical rate of failure amongst drives; failures are in fact statistically correlated.[11] In practice, the chances for a second failure before the first has been recovered (causing data loss) are higher than the chances for random failures. In a study of...

Very unlikely, typically this kind of thing would happen if you are working in a datacenter with hundreds of RAID volumes.
Either way, know that RAID is not a replacement for backups and your most important files should always be backed up.

I need something that won't kill my back after two hours
I sit on a bar stool with a stack of apple crates for a desk. The crates are 2 feet lower than the stool so I just crane my neck and bend over for hours at a time. Stop being so damn picky.
Aaron that I stole from work. If you have carpet, you gotta spend a little on larger wheels to not have the center peg fuck up your shag. I can fart nicely thru the mesh, and my back is no better or worse than a shitty ikea chair.
Pic related is good but expensive as fuck
