So obviously I need to flesh out the /g/ approved phones -
How should we do this?
Should we conduct polls, or should we just work on it over time through discussions?
Fuck off fagot

This certainly shouldn't be a surprise at this point. I would guess that it is safe to say that pretty much every person (including myself, I'm certainly not exempt from this) has had bad days and reacted poorly when dealing with the community, contributors, colleagues, etc. These are not excuses and these events can (and often do) shape the behaviours of the community and those observing it.
A close friend of mine, Paul Tagliamonte, was involved in the discussion about Debian's switch to systemd. He received at least 3 death threats due to his participation. In what world is this acceptable behaviour for a community? What about developers who have their addresses and the information of their loved ones posted on 4chan and other "forums"? Why don't we fight this more?
Nice blog
Nothing is more toxic then a OSX asshole being a smug piece of shit.
Also your story is bullshit OP. Death threats for OS switch? Yeah ok.
1/10 are you even trying
What do you do against surveillance by governments, especially by the NSA?

Install Gentoo.
Use Startpage/DuckDuckGo (not google search).
Use Firefox (not chrome), and set it up so cookies are erased when closed.
Install Adblock+ and Disconnect on it.
Used Nokia Here (not google maps).
Use OmniCloud (not google docs).
Use ProtonMail (not gmail. and keep your ddos memes, it's actually very good).
Use Jitsi or Tox (not skype).
More generally, avoid american brands, be it for hardware or software (e.g. use a Jolla/Bq smartphone).
Nothing's entirely secure...

Don't use Firekek thats terrible advice, it reports every url you visit by default.
Use pretty much any webkit-gtk based browser instead.

If you have a facebook, shut it down, that should help a lot already

How do we solve the Javascript problem?
Proper scoping.
Type safety.
>>51220296
>the javascript problem
>look at me, I have to fight everything I don't understand because I only work in C
>>51220395
This is literally the only thing wrong with js, and typescript solves it all beautifully. There's coffeescript too for the tinfoil loonixers but anyone supporting coffeescript is just a self-contradicting moron who likes to write vague code.
>>51220395
Oh btw, and for scoping, if you're still using var everywhere instead of let, you deserve any problems you have.
What kind of tech will be around in the year 2115?

realistically, there's uncanny things we could have within the next year, esp next 5 years, if the world would stop holding back tech growth.
if money was not a problem for devs and big corps being greedy, we'd already have:
functional immortality, wireless brain-to-net interface, near zero cost energy, etc...
if we started now, and...

That's just human nature senpai. We need to delete human nature or hope that an AI will erase humanity and make way for a truly superior being. or force us to live in VR.

sometimes systemd just baffles me as to wtf it's doing
>>51219524
Stop using systemd, install openrc
>>51219764
no. if systemd is what most distros are using then I should know how to use it - my own opinions don't come into it.
Speedtest thread?
TWC just upgraded me for free, pretty happy.
Daily reminder to shill for Portlane, LeaseWeb, NFOrce, TeliaSonera and few others.
If your ISP is uncommon, I'll probably rate it as I see it. I'll also rate ISPs on request.

>AMD faces a lawsuit over the core count on Bulldozer processors, reports legalnewsline.com In claiming that its Bulldozer CPU had “8-cores”. The suit alleges AMD built the Bulldozer processors by stripping away components from two cores and combining what was left to make a single “module.” In doing so, however, the cores no longer work independently.

GTX 970 3.5+0.5 when?????
>>51216909
>GTX 970 3.5+0.5 when?????
never, the 970 isn't an issue, if it was people would've protested with the 660ti and it's segmented vram as well
AMD IS FINISHED & BANKRUPT
It'll get tossed. Just a cunt looking for a quick buck. They never advertised it as anything else. The slides and all the technical information about the architecture was freely available.
Use Protonmail /g/ said, its the best
fuck you /g/ and thanks for recommending me this piece of shit service
i cant access my mail for 2 days now and i think i lost a job offer because i couldnt reply in time to a important email
FUCK YOU
Fucking Protonmail owners are so jewsih that they refuse to pay for anti DDoS protection like Cloudflare or something.
desu im baka senpai
Read their posts - they are looking for a datacentre but so far no one wanted to make any deal with them because of the level of sophistication in these DDoS attacks. Rather go help them instead of whining here like little curry niggers.

We base it on spring scales instead of Turing machines. Tension on the spring equates to various numerical values instead of just using some tape to be a 0 or 1. This means various charge levels, options, switches etc. And more complex logic.
>>51213417
That's pretty much what we're using rotated, only of course you made it harder because mobo connections have to go around the gpu.
