Is Dvorak actually better than QWERTY?
>>55144309
It is more comfortable, but not any faster.
>>55144309
DVORAK is horrible tbqh, tho that may just be due to lack of familiarity on my part

Also, swap caps lock with backspace.
ITT we discuss the best programming fonts.
I'll start:
PragmataPro.
>>55143688
That font literally gave me eyecancer. If you don't use monospace, you're not a coder, you're just a pleb. Let me guess, you're a node.js faggot
>>55143708
That's a monospaced font family, baka.
>>55143708
Pragmata is monospace, it's just ugly as fuck. I went through a phase of liking it but grew out of it, and now my parents are talking to me again.
Ubuntu Mono is the one I keep coming back to, after years of searching. Preferably bold.

Yes, we know everything is already from China but in here we discuss the no/low-name cheap shit you see on Gearbest, AliExpress, eBay and similar sites.

Can we have a hackintosh thread? How many hackintosh users are out there? What's your rig? Were you able to do a hackintosh without the reccomended hardware?
Also, I'm building this [budget] setup to see if it at least can handle Yosemite:

Truly pathetic.

I was running a Hackintosh for a year or so before I switched to botnet 10.
It just werked 98% of the time, but I finally got fed up with the lack of software for OS X and how locked down the system is. After trying linux and abandoning that once it refused to give me a proper layout for my keyboard, I finally installed botnet 10.
Now that I'm using it, I really don't understand why you'd want to run OS X, unless you have some specific need for it (e.g. UNIX environment).

What's the difference between Ethernet and Internet?
Ethernet starts with an E, Internet starts with an I.
>>55143185
What about Eithernet? It starts with both E and I.
Ethernet is wired internet as opposed to Wi-Fi.
Can we all just stop meming for 2 seconds and take a minute to sit down and seriously discuss this card?
As of yet, there are no real benchmarks. All reviews are embargoed for another 11 days. Any discussion of performance is based around assumption and a single slide from AMD in a press conference made to make the card look amazing.
We need to stop continuously repeating bullshit about how this card can perform as well as a GTX 980, or talking about how it scales linearly with overclocking, or that it can be overclocked to the moon.
If you're going...

It's just a fucking video card man, who cares
>>55142875
benchmarks are all in crossfire and exclusively on applications that run well under it, of course it's a fucking scam
They're trying to sucker in people who think they're going to be getting 1080 tier performance across the board when realistically you're either going to be dealing with microstuttering or a game that doesn't support it.
The directx12 perfect dual gpu meme should be considered a lie until it's actually out, no directx release ever lives up to it's...

What are your thoughts on the steam controller? I was thinking of getting one. i'm currently using a cheap logitech dual action
It works but whether it's good or not for you is up to you.
>>55142571
It's more a replacement for a keyboard and mouse than a joypad.
>>55142571
God tier if the game supports simultaneous gamepad and mouse input. The Mouse-Joystick emulation option where it uses positive acceleration to attempt to cancel out the negative acceleration of the controller works good in some games, bad in others.
There's a learning curve, but its great once you start getting a hang of the possibilities.
My only problem is that input is doubled when I first turn it on, have to turn it on and off again for steam to properly load my bindings.
Kinda sad that they dropped so out of style and no one uses them anymore.
There was a ton of creativity in the screensaver market back then (just remember all those detailed fish tanks for example)

It's not so much they "dropped out of style" as it is not serving any purpose anymore.

Is it worth waiting 11 days for the Radeon rx 480 when I can buy a gtx 960 for about the same price?
It's only almost twice the performance for the same price.
Your call though.
Yes you mongoloid
Supposed leaked benches are putting the RX480 about on par with a 980.
>>55142409
They're not even remotely comparable. The absolute worst-case scenario for an RX 480 has it at GTX 970 performance, whilst others put it above the 980. Make sure to make a thread if you do buy a 960 now, as I want to laugh at you.

The progress on this in the last year or so has been incredible to say the least. From blurry blobs of color to sharp and almost real images.
I bet google will soon implement a web interface to this, so you can describe the image you want. It's pretty cool.
We've had this for a while
