Did you also get the bug where the whisker menu button turns into a black box when moving tabs around?

I would honestly try mate. It's been rock solid for me. I always had problems with XFCE.
I have not been able to have a stable experience with any 16.04 so far. And I remember using 14.04 and 15.04 without issues.
I need help identifying this audio software.

Are you sure? It doesn't looks like it.
Hey /g/ what things are you guys going to get for black friday or cyber monday?
>>55125396
Considering that every retailer now just has really cheap chink shit made just for those "sales", you might as well hang out in /csg/
>>55125396
Maybe a new sony camera. If the a6300 drops below 1k im getting it.
I don't really need anything to be honest.
g makes a Java program!

If it somehow actually works by the end ill compile and make a dropbox to download it from, of course with source ;^)

The world ends and you have one laptop or smartphone with a solar charger to use for the rest of your days and hope it doesn't break on it's own,what do you take?
>>55125299
solar charger? probably the X200T with the ULV chip

What the fuck happened?! Was WWDC THAT bad? Christ, I have 100 apple shares, I'm scared as fuck.
>>55125285
You must be stupid to not have sold your shares when the jews left the boat.
Always trust the jews when it comes to money.
Wall Street has an AAPL panic attack every week.

This. Jump ship while you still can OP. The normies have lost interest in the pissphone and fagbooks, bankruptcy for Apple is eminent.
Why?

Kek. But the GPU and the foont looks like something from Guitar Hero
>>55125246
Because dumb gaymers are an important market, and this is their model aimed at them. Everybody else can buy the Jetstream, which is the exact same card and cooler with a more modest shroud and no gaudy LEDs.

>>55125217
Valid points. KDE is shit anyway, so i'll stick with XFCE and GTK applications for now.
Or better yet, drop the DE and just use a WM only.
>>55125217
>no filepicker
GTK has a file-picker. A pre-created file dialog.
>removing features all the time
Name some removed features.
>gtk themes breaks every releases
The CSS theming API is considered stable now. Either use the default theme or a theme which keeps up with the toolkit its being built for.
>>55125398
You're an idiot, but explaining to you why you are would be wasted on you.
What Linux desktop environment would /g/ suggest for a Thinkpad x230 i-5?
xfeces is the comfiest desu
>>55125112
What's the notable difference between xfce, ldxe, and kde? I've only used xfce of the three and it seemed fine
So far I've gathered xfce is lightweight
And kde has a lot of functionality at the cost of some bloat
The rest are unimportant
I travel a lot and like listening to audio rips from youtube so I can listen without have a network connection.
I used to use a capture program that is now broken, so what would you all recommend to replace it? I use the current version of firefox.
192kbps rips would be great but it's not a requirement

Can it strip audio without downloading the whole video?
Right now my video ripper still works so I can download the video then use an editor to save just the audio but I'm looking to save myself some steps.
Thanks for the info

Intel confirmed for botnet. Unless you use AMD be prepared for a dawn raid.
>>55124949
>Unless you use AMD
Recent AMD chips (anything post-Vishera) have the exact same hardware botnet built-in. There's no escape any more, friend. But that's okay, because you don't have anything to hide... do you?
>>55124989
Only APUs, not non-APU CPUs.
>>55124989
Not even remotely close, you FUD spreading retard.
An ARM TrustZone processor, which is completely disclosed, advertised even, serves legitimate uses that increase system security. It makes browsers safer for online shopping and banking, for users who bring their own laptops to work it protects the business.
Intel hiding a remote kill switch that was kept top secret isn't even in the same realm.
RISC vs CISC
Lets have an civil discussion on which is better for what use case. I recently completed learning 8052 (CISC) assembly and now am learning to AVR (RISC) assembly. I cannot find any advantage RISC has over CISC.
Now my programs are longer, and kinda slower (if not by much)
everything is RISC anyway.
>>55124885
Try learning x86 assembly then you'll appreciate how much simpler ARM is.
>>55124885
Smaller more specific cheaper chips.
Less power hungry then x86 counterparts.
And then you have the specifics on how you can get cheaper IO's on RISC.
