Just starting out with C programming.
Why are C compilers such a huge fucking mess of shit?
I was expecting to find a simple stand-alone exe that's maybe a couple hundred KB max.
Instead I keep finding compilers like Cygwin with fucking bizarre installation processes that connect to a server and download & install hundreds of files.
When I stopped the Cygwin installer it was at 7% and had already installed nearly a fucking gigabyte of files.
What gives?
Does it really take that much shit just to translate C code into machine...

Because you're trying to do linux stuff on windows.
If you're going to do C programming on Windows your only well supported option is Visual Studio.

it's like you consider "autistic" an insult; are you actually this dumb?

It isn't a good thing to be autistic, anon. Sorry.
Show me a smoother and shorter solution then this.

KeePass appreciation thread
Do people actually use that? Like, do you really save your passwords on your PC?
>>51317294
They are in an encrypted file that can not be cracked and the password for it is your head so they are actually not in your PC
>>51317294
Thank you
>>51317266
Yes, I store all my email, bank, web passwords and logins in one place on PC and USB drive.
The soft itself is stable as fuck, secure, open source, convenient and easy to use. You can link your cloud storage if you want host your encrypted data base online.
Is it possible to use an external graphics card in order to boost the quality and performance of a game on a laptop?
>>51317252
I sense a fucking underage kiddie who has a laptop parents bought him but wants to play latest epik gaymes
fuck off
>>51317252
Technically yes, you can read about it here: http://www.anandtech.com/show/7987/running-an-nvidia-gtx-780-ti-over-thunderbolt-2
Yes but you need a 2GB/s connection (like pcie 2.0 x4) to the motherboard to prevent bottlenecking.
So the only way I know something like this could work is like what >>51317501 said.
Even thunderbolt v1 delivers 2.5GB/s of max transfer speed which is more than enough for virtually any graphics card.
You would have to buy an external PSU and the shitty i5 on the laptop would actually boytleneck the GPU since they only clock around 2-3 GHz which results in poor single core performance and therefore less fps.
So...

As a windows and firefox user, should I switch to waterfox? Mozilla promised a 64 bit Firefox years ago but its still not here (just a beta), despite all the donations.
>>51317089
Short answer: No.
Long answer: No, you shouldn't.
>>51317118
why not?

You shouldn't be using firefox on windows senpai

Hey /g/
I have an idea for a device that acts like a computer but is not a computer in theory.
let me first start off by telling you a dream I had. In this dream me and a group of people are giving a task to make a new design for computers. A bunch of weird shit happens and then we made a "computer" called the Morpheus Cube. it was about the size of a GameCube. But with minimalistic look to it.
Now here's how it works (in my dream). You could put a cube on top of another cube to make it more powerful. So one cube has the power of a standard...

well how would it work?
parallel computing works up to a certain extent but requires software to take advantage of it.
we used to have massively parallel machines in the 70s and 80s but they were shit because its very difficult to coordinate.

you need to learn to speak english first.

Hey /b/ I'm trying to make a budget gaming pc for around $400ish. I'm mainly confused as to what processor I should get. Most people have been recommending the i3-4170 since it's relatively cheap and powerful. I'm wondering if there are any other good options either Intel or AMD. I'm hoping for 1080p and around 40-60fps for most modern games.
>>51316894
>Intel
>budget
Good goy
>>51316894
amd 860k
mother boards for it are cheap and the cpu is cheap.
Is it worth spending a few hundred on a phone right away and doing pic related without the contracts?
or even $500-700 for one of the more higher end phones
another one

Why do SSL certificates cost so much? Shouldn't they be free?
>>51316832
google letsencrypt
free certs
>>51316832
there was a free option from a newcomer company. don't recall their name at the moment, though
you can sign your own certs but would prompt your site as insecure
>>51316848
Letsencrypt is only "free" right now if you've participated as a developer in their beta.

Is there a way to see all traffic across my router. My speeds have been dwindling recently. And ookla isn't reporting any throttling. I also remember performing some throttling test online, and it came back negative. Anyways I don't want to be attacking anyone, just be able to identify bandwidth usage and who's responsible
