Should I upgrade to El Capitan or am I better off without it?
>>51311592
You should. It's basically a fixed Yosemite.
I just updated last night. Honestly can't even tell a difference

I'm just concerned of any possible performance decrease, seeing as my model is 3 years old
pcpartpicker thread, my dad is having me build him a system that will last for ~10 years to replace his current C2Duo machine. he is set on the CPU, 950, and amount of ram, but willing to change out other parts.
silence is also a huge preference for him.

any suggestions? the GPU will most likely be swapped in 4-5 years so I think the 390 is a good bet.
pic related is my build.
wouldnt change a thing...

I have that psu its pretty nice looking in person. long cables good finish on it shows less dust and the 140 mm is very quiet
Why do you have a 950 with an 850? You have two small SSDs, that's retarded, get a 1TB black series hard drive and the 950 you've selected

Don't really care how much it costs. Should be up to 150€. I'm in Europe.

How would 'flying car traffic' work?
>>51311466
With no human interaction/drivers. Everything must be automated and controlled by computers.
It wouldnt. It'd the main reason we'll never have flying cars.
Imagine walking down the sidewalk in your neighborhood and getting hit with debris from a car accident that happened a mile above your head. Or even more likely, your house getting it's roof caved in. Car accidents happen often enough on a 2D plane. And then there's drunk drivers...

I've seen some people do this before. I want to do it as well. Well I have an old Toshiba Satellite series laptop, 1.7ghz something like a Celeron M, and 1gb of ram, it's slow. It was running Vista switched that out for Lubuntu and its actually usable now. I wanna remove the HDD, since all that does is add heat and consume more power, same with the screen. How can I do this? Without breaking the machine. Also, what can I do with it? Teamspeak Server... Idk desu senpai... What would be a good OS, to do such thing.

I haven't used any kind of antivirus software during all the years I have been using Win XP / 7. I have just used common sence and not opened executable files from unknown or shady sources. It has been working just fine. And no, I haven't been infected without my knowledge since I have been running MBAM and other malware scans maybe once a year and I have never had any shit on my computer.
However yesterday I was browsing Netflix together with Hola (to get US IP for better movie supply). I fell asleep during the movie and when I woke up the next day my computer was still on and a new tab in my browser had opened which basically told me that all my files had been encrypted and I have to pay 500€ to get the private key in order to be able to decrypt the files: https://gyazo.com/1b...00918567b799d7f
The ONLY reason I can think this happened of is that Hola had some stupid popup or redirection to a website with malicious code that was automatically executed on my computer without my knowledge.
I am not crying rivers because of this because I did not have that much important files on my PC, but there are some files that I would like to have back, but I don't want them back enough to pay 500€ for them.
All files has a .ccc extension and they are encrypted. Is it possible to recover the files with some file recovery program like Recuva or does that only work for deleted files?
I did not have a Windows restore point so what I have done now is that I have saved the encrypted files on a HDD and formatted my C:\ drive and reinstalled Windows.

you ran a program using unsecured protocols, that is all.
dont use software programmed by retards
>>51311257
No, I haven't ran any suspicious program. This happened just after I had used the Hola extension.
It was days ago since I used any other programs than Chrome, Skype and Steam. Why would the encryption malware would wait a few days before executing the encryption...
Are VMware certs worth obtaining? Was considering a VCA-DCV which is an entry level vmware cert and eventually moving onto a VCP. Does anyone have any experience with these types of certs?

Hey /g/
How strong (or rather how much of a good idea) would be to use such a password? I mean the hash output of a word. I would not use this particular word ofcourse, it would actually be a word written with Cyrillic which would also contain different case characters, but a rather simple word.
>>51311014
bad idea
just generate something random
why not just use some random phrase as your password and then write in Cyrillic or whatever?
>>51311059
Hmm, really? Why? Even I wouldn't know the actual password, but only I would be able to generate it.
PaSSwoRd - only I would know the characters case and the actual hashing algorithm used to generate it.
>>51311074
Easier to remember one word.
Why can't Microsoft into visual design?
Microsoft is the one on the top my friend.
looks like applel can't into visual design either :^)
>>51310985
They have more important things to focus on.
Apple doesn't have any standout features, and has to trick its fanbase into buying it based on aesthetics alone.
Think of it like buying an amazingly beautiful paper weight.

already did. fucking image viewer is still shitting all over the place.
I still don't like how it looks (icon color scheme, etc)
Well, at least firefox works as best as it can, and i can still shitpost like before.
Is it really that necessary to use those fucking pointers when programming in C++?
Can I just pass variables in a similar fashion to Python or Ruby, except just defining the types explicitly?
>mfw pointers
There are two types of programmers.
Those who understand pointers.
And those who get picked up by their mom after work.
No you fucker. Either you understand how memory actually works, or you deal with languages with jiggabyte sized runtimes that have to constantly pause your program to wipe your ass (or in some cases leave you standing in a pile of your own shit until the manager of your daycare kicks you out), not that it'd be a good program anyway since you likely don't even understand the basics of computer science.
>>51311010
I understand them but I'm just lazy, years of Python and Ruby literally spoiled me.

I'm a very private person. I've setup Chrome so that it'll automatically erase all browsing history, cache, cookies, etc on startup. However, there is just one issue. When all that is gone, it's a bit annoying to have to type in all my favorite websites by hand (they aren't auto-suggested in the URL bar). What's the best way to resolve this issue?
