Hey /g/, i recently though of replacing windows with linux completely, and thought to install Arch, Is this what most people would recommend? How good is arch for someone who just wants to browse 4chan and code and shit.
>>55366944
Arch is for autists, if i had to pick a distro to switch over to from windows its debian.
Before you abandon Windows, set up a virtual machine, and spend some time familiarizing yourself.
This is a good site:

Also, this is a good video series:

Just stick with Ubuntu until you know what you want. Arch is not for novices, and is hated by most linux users
>>55366944
Are you saying that this linux can run on a computer without windows underneath it, at all ? As in, without a boot disk, without any drivers, and without any services ?
That sounds preposterous to me.
If it were true (and I doubt it), then companies would be selling computers without a windows. This clearly is not happening, so there must be some error in your calculations. I hope you realise that windows is more than just Office ? Its a whole system that runs the computer from start to finish, and...

How many of you go on /v/? Be honest. I've been coming on this site for quite a while, but nothing hurts me more than the only technology board being a complete shithole.
I don't go to /v/ yet I still shit post
Explain that

Wonder who is behind this.
I keep /v/ open in it's own tab.
Redpill me on Chromebooks, why do you need shit like 16 GB RAM if you're only able to run apps from the Chrome app store on it?
>>55366712
Why would you want to feed personal data to Google 24/7? Sounds rather insane and irresponsible.
Have you ever used web apps?
the 16gb of RAM meme isn't a meme if you do

Have they fixed the driver overhead issue yet?
Is it safe to buy AMD for budget builds yet?
>>55366599
Yeah, Windows 10 p much fixed it. DX 11 gonna DX 11 though, so it's still there. DX 12 should solve a lot of the cpu overhead bottleneck issues.
>>55366641
When DX12 becomes reliable. AMD won't be
>>55366641
Dx12 isn't a fix.
what is the difference between RGB and BGR?
Does BGR look blurry?
All I have read so far are people saying that a monitor with RGB is a good thing, but they dont say if BGR is bad.
No difference as long as your OS's subpixel rendering system can handle BGR, which virtually all of them do. It's the same photons in a different order, and they're still horizontally aligned, which is the dimension in which human vision has a higher "resolution."
For proof, take a look at a recent Samsung Android phone with a "PenTile matrix" OLED screen. It's a non-RGB system that looks great.

thanks!
Have any of you seen his channel? He runs a 3rd party laptop repair shop and documents some of the stuff he does.
What his latest video is hinting at it that Apple is suing him and trying to get his channel and his company shut down for repairing Macbooks and making apple look like a greedy jew.
He hints in the video that you should download all his videos to and re-upload.
I mean I knew Apple was greedy but come on! Destroying this guys company and livelihood is a bit much don't you think?

I'm gonna upgrade sometime soon and I'm seriously considering getting the iPhone 7 because I've been using android since 2.2
why the fuck do none of these http mirrors work to get an arch iso? https://www.archlinux.org/download/
I'm also trying the torrent and am getting like 0 b/s, seriously how fucking hard can it be to download the arch iso?
Install gentoo first
>>55366546
its' arch, even the download links break
Jesus Christ, If you weren't a fuckin' retard, you could just take a step back and go to the /iso/ directory, find an older iso, then fuckin update, retard.
Anyone else sick of 5.5 inch screens? I've been using my Moto E for awhile and while it was OK when I rarely used my phone is showing its age. The touch screen is inaccurate and it randomly shuts off from time to time. I'd like to keep my next phone for the next 3-5 years so picking the right one is worth thinking about.
What I'm looking for:
-Android
-4.7-5.0 inch screen
-Support for T-Mobile band12 (building penetration)
-Newer than 2014 (power, battery life, tech, and band12 support as above)
-SD card support would be really nice
-NFC...

Please help me build a PC. My budget is $600 max. I only play Free to Play games like LoL and some Steam stuff (Don't judge, those are my time killers for now)
Anything I should change? Is this a low-end build enough for me to enjoy lite gaming? I live in a shit hole and these are the best prices I can find (can't order newegg or anything from outside the country)
>>55366361
>Anything I should change?
Yes. Leave your part-time Walmart job, and get into something that pays better. Then move out of your mom's basement. Then lose your virginity. Then acquire self-respect. And THEN worry about some shitty old PC.
Priorities, man.
>>55366361
I got my laptop for $400. it's an hp probook 6460b and it's got 8gb ram, i5 dual-core and intelhd graphics. it can run csgo and all the batman arkham games. I'd recommend it for light gaming.
They have it on the best buy and staples site refurbished.

Will there be a follow up of the nano?
Maybe an rx490n?
It was well received so I wager yes.
>>55366157
I'd love to crossfire a pair of nanos, they're so cute.
>GPU with interposer and HBM
>no memory traces on the board
>basically just power phases, display out, and power in
>small PCB
Eventually cards like the Nano will just be standard.
I dont get this meme. All honesty, what's so bad about windows 10?
people here on /g/ are all bandwagoneers and have to side on linux for anything and everything

Everything.
Now continue to poo, you're way behind in your designated quota, Raj.
