How fast are graphics cards for laptops nowadays? How much slower would be e.g. GeForce GTX 960M than my Radeon R9 290? I'm having trouble finding good benchmarks that compare cards for both laptops and desktop computers.
>>55098329
Even a gt745m would perform better than that 290 pieces of shit from AMD.
>>55098329
>Have a 290
>Want a gaymen laptop
I have no words.
>>55098329
Not even the gtx980m will be as good as r9 290
My mum was right. Intel are the devil and only powerPC architecture can be trusted. It was a sad day for her when apple switched from powerPC to intel. She died from cancer before it actually happened though.

Did I choose the right software?
>Debian
Yes, not biased either
>>55098235
yes, because Apache is the IE of webservers

In this thread we write one fact about ANY technology or programming language to teach each other. Also post infographics.
In C programming language, the #include preprocessor directive includes the header file contents to the source code file.
It does a copy-paste from headerfile.h to source.c before the compiler runs, hence it is preprocessing.#include <someheaderfile.h>
...
In C the function called "main" is special, the program starts from the first instruction in this function.
Example main function:int main(void)
{
/*first instruction to be executed goes here*/
return 0
}
The sequence of generating a program from C source code is as follows:
1. preprocessor (directives like #include etc.)
2. compiler (translates C source code to assembly)
3. assembler (translates assembly to machine code)
4. linker (embeds machine code in an executable file eg. ELF)
The knapsack problem is an example of NP-complete problems.
For any k items, each having it's own weight w we are looking for such a subset of these items, so that the sum of weights inside the subset is equal to some N. In the worst case, we must check each of the 2^k subsets. If it was possible to solve the problem in polynomial (not exponential) time, then we'd prove that P=NP and get a million $.
Is this the daily autism thread?

For those of you not in the know, Blue Coat makes the Man-In-The-Middle systems that enterprises/big corps use to read encrypted traffic.
And now one of the biggest certificate authorities owns them.
Its happening.

I broke a usb drive by ejecting immediately after finishing a copy operation.

Is pic related true?

Yes.

Debatable
Slow once you start actually trying to do something with it.

You have to be fucking kidding me with this question.

Does Bitcoin mining make sense anymore? I have a basically unused server that I would really like to give a purpose.
you're 7 years too late for that
>>55097179
You'd have to look it up and probably buy a GPU, otherwise you'd be spending more on electricity than you'd be making in buttcoins iirc.
It didn't make sense three years ago
