Would it be possible to hackintosh my x220 and dual boot OSx and Ubuntu? I want to do app development for both ios and android.
>>55600654
Yeah. Clover can boot both OS X and Linux.
Is there a respectable place to get ISOs for OSX, or MD5s of good rips? I really wanna try out El Capitan on my Thinkpad but I've become super paranoid over downloading OSes off TPB.
What's the deal with dx12?
It's Microsoft's latest graphics api.
>>55600321
It's a way to lock windows drones in to their OS.
>>55600321
I want DX12 but not at the price of botnet
What VPN does /g/ use?
Have you tried tunnelbear? What do you think?
>>55600297
Can the bear be trusted?
Its not bad.
>>55600297
AirVPN. Because they use Bitcoins for purchase.
Hey /g/, I'm thinking about buying the Lenovo Ideapad 100 15 inch.
I'm buying Lenovo because I've heard good stuff about them.
I need basically an affordable laptop for Visual Studio, running some mobile device VRs and maybe playing games, all on Win7.
Should I?
>>55600261
dont. i have a g50 series (before they all became ideapads, mine is basically an ideapad 300) and its utter SHIT.
The only good lenovo laptops are T W X and P series thinkpads.
>>55600300
Can you recommend me a model?
I need it as an extra and to be able to study in coffee places after work, I'll have a proper desktop at home anyways.
I'm looking for a 500$ laptop so I don't expect it to be amazing, but it needs to be at least adequate.
>>55600361
Get a x230 (12") or t430 (14"). Avoid the **40 models because of the shit clickpad.

I thought Macs can't get viruses?
Also why is one of the best hacker sin the world using Windows?
>>55599801
OP has no idea what a virus is.
Hacking doesn't involve viruses. It relies on vulnerabilities which get exploited.

why is Sense 1000000x better than Touchjizz lads?
>>55599642
s7 edge is the better phone though. You can always use a different launcher.
>>55599615
>Kyocera Hydro Shore is a waterproof smartphone that costs just $80
That thing is definitely on my shortlist for a backup phone. Hopefully it can be rooted and shit.
Windows 7 keeps nudging me to upgrade to 10. Do I have any alternatives? I tried Windows 10 and it has freezing problems. I can't go to Linux since I need Windows software.
Windows 7
>>55599593
It's no longer updated.
8.1 is ok too. I did downgrade from 10 to this. No regrets.

Why are there no 120hz 1080p IPS monitors out there?
Ive been using the only one in the world for the last 5 years.
Quality of >60Hz IPS is downright fucking awful and the IPS label is basically just a marketing gimmick. Actually look at one next to a 'real' IPS and you'll understand. People at 1440p are typically much more willing to throw money at their monitor because they're thinking something along the lines of
>If I'm spending this much I may as well spend a bit more and get the best one.
this leads them to fall for gimmicks like >60Hz IPS.
>>55599622
Do you have a link to somewhere showing a comparison? I don't live somewhere that I can just go into a store and look.
Need a programming board/IRC/whatever that's normie-free. No hipsters, brogammers, women in coding, ideas guys, or wanna-be Zuckerbergs. Where age, gender, political leanings, and everything to do with you as a human being don't matter. Where you're judged solely by your wealth of knowledge and the quality of your code.
>>55599065
>Where you're judged solely by your wealth of knowledge and the quality of your code.
Find a board with no humans, and you'll have your home. Good luck with that.
>>55599082
Thanks anon, at least now I can kill myself knowing I was destined to be alone forever anyway.
