Thoughts on this?
GTX 1080M looks to perform as well as a GTX 980 Ti.

The year of gaming laptop is here
Holy shit if this is true AMD and Desktops are finished and bankrupt.
Year of linux laptop never.

It's nothing.
would buying a chrome book be worth it or would i be wasting my money? Are they similar to those shitty intel atom netbooks from a few years back or do these actually have functionality? Im looking to have a portable pc for learning to code, browse the internet, and play old school runescape. Would a chrome book be a wise investment for me?
dont bother. you can get a better computer for the same amount with way more hardware features and functionality.
>>55197271
Chromebooks are a joke. Buy an old laptop off eBay for 200 bucks instead.
Eh I enjoy my chrome book bought it for 120 bucks off amazon just to do school things on it and it does that perfectly fine.
Jelly?
nice ip address

Is it worth getting an i7 over an i5, if I'm going to be doing a lot of compiling?
>>55197248
Thanks, is this a good one to get? http://m.newegg.com/Product/index?itemnumber=N82E16819117369
yeah i5s are for gamers and poors
i3s are for normies
compiling software
media transcoding
cad/cam
emulation/virtual machines
>>55197297
Thanks. Are any AMD CPUs worth looking at?

Recently lost my iPhone in a public area. Had Find My iPhone enabled so I was able to see my phone's location until it died. Confident my phone was taken from where I left it and taken across the street to apartments. The culturally rich neighborhood I was in has a lot of security cameras, I think there is a pretty good chance my phone being taken was recorded by at least one of them. How do I go about getting this footage / how helpful do you guys think said footage would be in getting an ID. Pic is my iPhones location.

Go to the police, why are you asking /g/?

>>55197173
I very much doubt the NYPD is going to help me with this.

>tfw i have to install non-free firmware
Is this a botnet/backdoor?

bump comon i'm serious :(
How can anyone know if it has a back door. No one can see the source code to see if it has malicious features.
I'm a fucking retard please tell me the difference between solid state hard drives and whatever the other kind is. My tits for your time.
>>55196940
keep up the good work my man
solid state drives are faster
>faggot doesn't use sqt
>gets meme replies
let's do this
Inside a hard drive there is a round thing spinning. Inside SSD there is no spinning thing, only micro chips, so it is faster.
I tried to build a "Minimal Linux Live" on my bananananapi. It failed.
When I start the build script the sources for the linux kernel are downloaded. After that they are extracted. While extracting I noticed my ssh connection went to /dev/null, I then noticed my bananana was offline, I then noticed it was shutdown.
Does not matter if I extract to a flash drive or the bootable sd card.
>tfw linux literally kills of my device
It seems you came to the wrong board for help.
Please direct this post to >>>/wsr/ for actual help.
>>55196895
I am not here for help
This is just yet another Linux Kills Device thread
Also, I think it is kinda funny that running tar shuts down the board
>>55196867
Your level of IQ killed the device, retard. Linux is not for mouthbreathers
>compiling a program
>the temps jump from 50 to 102
What to do?
First of all, sounds like a shitel CPU. So, for one get moar AMD coars; great for compiling.
Second, well, your cooling is totally cucked, fix it, you pajeet.
Dont buy AMD
>>55196820
Fix your cooling. New cooler, better fans, a good cleaning, something.

Okay so serious question. I know people say CS is a meme, but I also recall some saying that because most universities do a shit job of truly teaching their students real life skills. So anyways, is me going to Polytechnic San Luis Obispo University for their Computer Science Degree consider a bad idea?
>>55196705
Do whatever you want.
Get good, get jobs.
>>55196705
no its not. the people who say cs is a meme are the same people that sucked ass at math in school and couldn't do well in cs if they tried. >>55196898
this.
those who are good get good jobs
Nah CS at SLO is a good deal
I have two Linksys WRT54GS routers running DD-WRT (full) and Tomato. I'm like to connect one of these to an open wifi network (truly open - no authorization/ToS acceptance required) that my campus broadcasts so that I can connect multiple wired clients to the open wifi network from the router's MAC address.
I swear to god, I remember this being a thing that was an option in either DD-WRT or Tomato. Does anyone have any experience with this? I can't even recall what the method/protocol is called, despite my googling.
>>55196588
WRT54GS is deprecated.
Buy any worthwhile buffalo or asus router and use tomato; you only need one 2x3 or 3x3 router instead of two pieces of crap.
>>55196627
This is completely irrelevant. I, and I'm sure all other WRT54G-series owners, are fully aware that our decade-old routers lack a number of modern features.
Under basic->network I'm pretty sure you can set wan connection to connect to a wlan in tomato. I did it many years ago
Does /g/ tape their webcam like Zuckerberg?
Somebody could be watching you and your waifu right now.
What webcam?
Taping the webcam is useless when there is still a Mic. Besides, what are they going to see other than me engaging in hand-to-gland combat?

People who actually care about tech don't hang out on 4chan anymore. That's why I'm here and you shouldn't be.
