What's a good way to pad your Computer Science graduate resume if you're a friendless autistic neckbeard with zero actual work experience outside of shitposting in programming threads on /g/?

Lie.

Thanks. I'll try making a SAO themed resume and see how employers respond to it.

Are people/groups with the biggest computers really the most powerful?
By leveraging technology to offer as many free goods/services as possible (news, communication, music, movies, etc.), aren't we taking away the possibility of getting paid to produce those things?

>Are people/groups with the biggest computers really the most powerful?
People with most information are the most powerful, assuming they know how to make use of the information. Even if they do a crappy job with the information they still have the edge.
SSD Appreciation Thread
What do you currently have? Satisfied? Think its just a meme with placebo effects?
How do it compare to HDD's in Raid arrays?
Currently I have a budget 120gb PNY, AS SSD results around 400MB/s read 300MB/s write. Other drive is a standard 1TB 7200rpm HDD.
I dont quite have enough space to store all my applications and really there's such a huge difference in speed between the two I'm thinking of picking up at least a 240gb SSD I really dont want to use a HDD at all anymore but cost is a huge factor.

Sorry about the black borders not sure where they came from....
>>50812046
Picked up a PNY CS1111 120gb from best buy for like $40 on sale + $10 off in reward points, Best thing I've ever bought there.
I would love something that does 500/500 but really I don't deal in large files usually, just really appreciate muh game load times
I put a $45 sandisk 128gb SSD into a sata2 laptop and manage to get 150MB/s sustained write speeds.
SSDs are a meme.
How would one connect an old Xbox with a PC monitor (has VGA and DVI, but no HDMI)? Is there maybe a single adapter that would work as a plug&play device?
With your VGA cord in hand, plug one blue end into the Xbox, and the other blue end into the monitor.
Plenty of adapters for it, just google. Keep in mind you will need speakers on said monitor to get sound. Or a headphone jack.
>>50811514
This can't be done with just a normal VGA cord, you can't plug that cable into the Xbox.
>>50811540
I searched for quite a while but couldn't find out whether there's a special adapter that can actually deal with the Xbox and display it correctly with a PC monitor. Most adapters were for the Xbox360, couldn't find one explicitly for the old Xbox. Thanks for the speaker tip I came across that and will use head phones. But still not...

Is this the most aesthetic Moto?
If not, prove me wrong.
Anyway, incredibly veiled Moto X Pure thread, thinking about picking one up. I remember thinking my S3 was XBOXHUEG, but the Pure's size just seems ridiculous, how is it when you actually have it?

Is there a way to bypass wifi login in my hotel for free? pic related
What kind of shitty hotel doesn't have free guest wifi?
Even if it's not free, they usually include it as part of your resort fee.

Basically I want to buy an item that connects to my phone with Bluetooth 4.0 LE.
This can be a smart band (fitness bullshit?), earpiece, smart watch, whatever.
Problem is, the price.
Well it is not a problem, but I don't want wasting money.
The sole purpose of the said item?
To be the token for Smart Unlock*.
> inb4 use location
Location based unlock sucks.
Unreliable, GPS sucks battery at all the time.
* It's an Android feature.
Basically you have a strong password, pin, code, whatever.

Oh yeah, so I could buy a smart watch, but I just don't feel like they are ready yet. They have shit battery life, shitty screen size, etc etc.
So far Pebble's looks the best (to me), even though it's not _that_ smart, but it costs a fortune.
(With steel body and all.)
Xiaomi Mi Band, probably.
>>50810807
Check out the U8. It's not fancy at all, but the battery lasts all day, it can read texts and view notifications, and it has those fitness features that I don't use. It's normally about 15 dollars, but a vendor on Aliexpress has them for 7 right now.
People who work on IT or similar fields. Do you find joy and fulfillment when you help out old people or do you just get frustrated? just curious that's all
Depends. I feel fulfilled if I help someone out who is eager to cooperate and learn. No matter the age.
>>50810713
the old people who i've tried to help usually refuse to learn anything. they just want me to solve their problem and leave them alone.
even if i do explain it to them and they pretend to be interested, we both know that they'll forget it in about a minute.
so no it is not satisfying to help old people.
Old people are cute. Generally I find them to be fairly easy-going and easy to work with as long as you give clear and concise instructions and be patient. That was my experience at least when I worked phone support back in the day.

>>50810686
was it mostly for gaming, or did he do other stuff on it? And does the 750 do what he needs it to do? Is he planning on saving up for a real GPU when cards change next year?
>>50810708
It's almost purely for gaming.
No, he doesn't plan to get a new GPU any time soon.
I'm gonna buy that "Asus Z170 Pro Gaming" Motherboard
I'm still looking for RAM.
Motherboard specification:
Memory chip: DDR4-2133
Max. RAM OC: 3400MHz
How much is supported now?
1. 2133MHz is maximum supported(out of the box) but can be overclocked up to a maximum of 3400MHz
OR
2. 3400MHz is maximum supported overclocked or not.
>>50810396
lol

that 2133 is irritating i'm sure it's 2. but i just want to be sure

My problem is that with this ram it will only post if they are in slots 2 and 4, or a black and grey. I can't get it to post with the ram in the same color slots. So i can only get it to post in single channel...

Do you guys know of any cool programming/IT/tech related T-shirts that actually look cool, and don't scream programming autist to people who don't really know what the shirt is?
Preferably, people into tech or programming will know what it is, but people who aren't into those will just think it's cool.
Sure thing OP ;-) us nerds, right??
Pastebin sells some, but even those are cringey. Displaying the fact that you're into tech is the equivalent of wearing a charity belt and fedora all at the same time.
