Anyone else find themselves not turning on their desktop for anything but programming these days?
I just do everything else (browsing, email) on my phone
Is it time to join the tablet race?
I don't code, but I do a fair share of 3d modeling and drawing (solidworks, mastercam) and yes I fear that one day I'll avoid using my desktop for leisure. Until then I just use my desktop in brief sprints, draw one thing, go run an errand, etc.

You might not even need a desktop to program in the end. All you need is a big screen, or multiple of them, and a keyboard. Tablets already provide that.

You can program on tablets?

Jewgle Fiber is moving into my city, and should definitely be encouraging business and the aforementioned. It's already a huge banking center of the South and wagecuck landscapers are digging up the neighborhood, will be nice to have those kind of speeds, plus time warner has to compete so I now pay 80 bucks for 29 megabytes/ps

>>Do they care about Comcast lobbyist bucks more than actually improving their cities?
most politicians do, yes. Their first priority is always getting re-elected, because nobody who doesn't get off on power goes into politics. Their second priority is always making money.
really nobody who is ambitious enough to be a politician should be trusted with political power. not that I have any idea how you'd set that system up.

>Their first priority is always getting re-elected,
But, wouldn't they get re-elected if they shill their municipal fiber initiative hard to the voters?

I come to you with a dilemma and compensation for help. I have a free subscription to pluralsight and have gotten a lot out of their videos so far. However, I would like download a lot more before my trial runs out.
The only methods I have found with my limited research are brute force, manual ones that will take quite a while. I am curious if anyone knows or can point me in the direction of an automated method. I will not download any software, but if I need to install python e.g. or use a third party site that would be fine. I will rip videos on...

Have you tried if youtube-dl is able to down their videos? Use the newest version from github/their site, the one in the repo is outdated AF
>>55174318
I will try and report back but if I remember the limitations right pluralsight has most things like that blocked unless the videos url is reopens in a new tab. The new version may be just fine tho
>>55174608
Just try, I was amazed how many hosts ydl is able to leech
Any mature comments apart from the trolling I'm about to receive will help MY WHOLE LIFE.
Leave while you still can or be trapped forever.
You can start to code whenever you want.
It's just like any hobby, you can be bad at it, it doesn't matter. You just have to like what you do.

I admit I was wrong. Ubuntu is the fucking best and has done more than any other distro to make Linux easy for normal serious use.
I can sure you Ubuntu is still hard for the average Joe.

Should I buy a Smart TV or a regular TV with a streaming device instead?
>>55173775
Regular TV with a streaming device should save you some money. The issue is the panels in non-smart TVs tend not to be that good that good.
TV with streaming device. Always. Smart TV's tend to obsolete pretty quickly.
>>55173801
And what about the refresh rate? Would I be sacrificing a better refresh rate when I buy a regular no-smart TV set?
High end reasonable computer. here we build a consumer grade computer that utilize every pcie lane of the cpu without sacrificing performance (ex. No Crossfire/Sli at x8, No sata express in expense of nvme drive). This computer is not gonna be build. Its just the most reasonable powerful computer in our days. >pic not related

Does anyone have experience with the PC Engines boards? I've been looking at the apu2c4 since it's supposed to be a board with 3 gigabit ports, 2 wireless NIC slots, and 4 gigs of ECC memory for ~200 dollars.
OK.
>>55173845
Like it's OK?
What are you trying to do? If it's anything besides the most basic router look elsewhere. They do have a surprising amount of IPsec throughput for the price but it's still not great.
