Is that really the max that you can get? Man Lenovo products are shit.

To the trash it goes
Lenovo is no longer the quality people used to praise, heavily consider researching other options.
Aside from the monstrous price tag, is Alienware as bad as /g/ says they are?
I bought a laptop before I knew better, and the CPU fried two weeks after I bought.

Post a good one
Not "bad"
just "gaymur" and "overpriced"
Ive been reading a lot of seminal scifi and have gotten into cyber 80s era. reading about those ideas and seeing modern analogues are fun, but in particular i have a question about derms aka drugs delivered via patch.
i know there is nicotine derms, and scar healing derms, but are there more potent ones too? tranqs or psycoactivs?
scifi realized general thread!
>>51587693
Go back to sleep Jordan.
>>51587693
A caffeine derm would be pretty awesome.
There are fentanyl patches which, in true high-tech lowlife fashion, addicts cut open and smoke
I don't know much about computers so don't crucify me if this is a stupid or obvious question.
I'll keep it short, I only use my computer to watch videos, it's on its last leg and won't play hd movies anymore. I'm super straped on cash and would like to know if this would be good for what I'm looking for. 720-1080p video and can run Civ 5.

I think it'd probably struggle. civ 5 looks like it wants a dedicated graphics card, and that pc doesn't have one.
better forget about gaymen, mang

My brothers store bought desktop runs it pretty well and I'm positive its running on integrated graphics. Is there any way to tell if this computers will support it?

Best computer speakers or set up I can get for ~$200?
I've got my meme m50xs for quality headphones and i've been using $10 computer speakers all my life so now I want something better.
I've been looking at some Harman kardon set up but it looks kind of funky.
These are around $125 and have caught my eye because they look quite nice but I don't know too much about my audio.
Help?
>>51587638
>look quite nice
>Neon trim
>Pink panther sneaking up on the woofer
>Volume knob on the front what the fuck
I don't know if I can help someone with such bad taste.
>>51587759
Not a Razr fanboy but I meant the sound quality ratings not the design.
I hate the volume knob on the front but i'm used to those on these cheapo speakers so it's not an issue.
>Give me your suggestions on good taste.
all computer speakers are shit.
get a proper soundsystem
>has surpassed Ubuntu in popularity
>therefore more users, better support
>developed with Cinnamon, the best DE, in mind
>has a settings manager, update manager, and software center GUI that isn't utter shit
>comes with everything you need OOTB
>a new batch of comfy photography for wallpapers with each release
>stable as fuck
>just works
So, why aren't you using the all-around best, most comfiest distro of all time, /g/? With 17.3 just around the corner, it's about to get even better.
I have a job
>>51587423
To be honest, OP, I finally am using it!
I checked in with Mint every-other release or so, and finally came away impressed with whatever version packaged Cinnamon 2.6 by default. I have finally given up "muh minimalism, muh lightweight" comfy life in Openbox for Cinnamon. I still feel a little dirty, but less and less each day.
because ubuntu looks better in screenfetch. also because I don't want to rice again.
Which is better -- sublime or atom?
>>51587379
Vim
Sublime Text 3 is faster and has more extensions
Atom is open source and has a community of people actively contributing.
Debates about the merits of one text editor over another are retarded. use both for a week and then drop the one you don't like.

You wake up... You just found out that you are CEO of Facebook.
What would you do as CEO to improve Facebook in a year.
Make it appeal to /g/.
Terminate it.

Leak everyone's info and messages and pictures and all that shit out, so that the dumb fucks can learn their lesson about building a database on yourself.
>Using a laptop
>2015
Most people use their laptops like this and it leads to upper neck pain. That shit can be permanent. Get a desktop monitor thats level with your eyes.
>>51587173
I still get that with monitors because shit setup.
>>51587181
Raise your monitor with books then
Are these a meme size battery?
>>51587120
he ? wtf ?
Definitely meme batteries
I only use Ni-MH AAA and AA sized actually batteries
>>51587120
Yes. AA sized batteries are small enough, only "muh thinness" fags care about AAAs.
Don't even get me started on coin cells.

IT'S HAPPENING, /g/.
So FOSS apps then?
That kinda makes me want to buy a cheapo windows phone and play around with it....

Not even close. They created a separate data collection bill and rushed it through congress a few months ago. The data collection continues also this only applies to landline phones.
What dining establishments do you like to plug in your laptop and sit all day?
>>51586750
Taco Bell
None because I'm not a hipster faggot. You fucking sit at your computer and waste your life at home, not at some dining establishment pretending to be the next trendy startup millionaire or distinguished writer and novelist.
>>51586817
this may have been true in 2007 but it's not true now, laptops are everywhere and everybody uses them in coffee shops, on trains, on the bus etc
The AT&T version of the Galaxy S5 can't be rooted.
