Why do I have a €1500 new PC in my shopping cart right now?? This one I currently have works just fine, everything runs instantly, the two games I occasionally play run at 200+ FPS and the whole PC is better than what 99% of people have.
Why do I/We do this?
Am I compensating for something in my life?
Am I autistic?
Or is it just a hobby and people spend inappropriate amounts of money on their hobbies so its normal?
to fulfill empty life
PS 2500k still stonk

>Am I compensating for something in my life?
Anyone who tells you this without knowing you personally or your life story is an idiot that can be disregarded.
>Am I autistic?
Same with this. This is just another shitty, no-effort meme that doesn't mean anything.
My view of any hobby is this: Does spending time and money on it take away from other parts of your life; do you find it impossible to stop, even if you really want to;...

Why is Windows 10 such a piece of trash? It's always hogging all my network bandwidth, I had to disable the built in defender because it always rams up the cpu when I wake up my laptop. I went through most of the tutorials online to disable telemetry and other bullshit, but there's still stuff happening in the background. Should I re-install Windows 7, or has MS gave it it's AIDS too?

here's a glimpse as to why
Sounds like you are just too retarded to get it working OP
Hi /g/! I think I fucked up and I need help ASAP. Long story short, I needed some files for work that I went and got from my colleague's PC, BUT, after I got home and opened up my USB, EVERYTHING on it was gone. I had lost EVERYTHING. Is there any way I can return any files at all? I had files of big significance & it sucks losing them all.
Pic unrelated.
>>55078365
>Is there any way I can return any files at all?
no.
now you know why you should have multiple backups of important files.
>>55078365
what a cuck
Uhh, did you actually move the files instead of copying them? Just email your colleague and have then sent to you.
I installed Android 6.0.1 custom rom (because android phone makers are shit at updates). I noticed camera focusing when not in use, sometimes even when the screen is off. Is the rom maker or google spying on me?

Lucky bastard

What else can I do. I have a flagship phone from a major manufacturer that only got 1 update in its lifecycle. My next phone will be iphone
Have any of you build a mini shitposting station?
I need my x86 to be comfy
>>55078431
Then make it comfy for on the go shit posting?
I'm making a case out of Oak with a dark lacquer
>>55078454
For on the go my phone with Clover is the best.
The RP is nice, but for a quality small shitposting station, it's not powerful enough.
sup /g/
which lenovo thinkpad can you suggest?
i'm thinking about getting the T440, going for 400EUR here in germoney.
is it a good choice?
>>55078253
It's a good choice if you are willing to buy a 50 series touchpad off of Ali express or some shit and install it yourself. I have never used a worse touchpad than that laptop.
ibm thinkpad t60
t420 or x220(ips)
now take it to /tpg/
Why don't you have an IPS /g/ ?
But I do

What are some good gaming laptops on the market? I'm gonna be traveling a lot, so I might as well invest in one.
they're all gonna overheat/drop fps/turn off after 2 weeks. so buy whatever you want.
>>55077933
This is your chance to stop gaming and start doing something productive with your life. Dont pass it, get Xps 13 with ubuntu.

what do i need to know when choosing parts in building a high-but-probably-not-end-tier gaming computer?
Find the best price/performance

First start by choosing how much you want to spend on it. Second, ask >>>/g/sqt or find builds on pcpartpicker

Thank you brother
how to be master at c/c++/c99 ?
Why are people soo stupid anons. Yeah, razer's peripherals are trash ( mice, keyboards , DEFINITELY headphones) but the laptops are ok. Everytime Razer posts about their laptops kids comment ( oh man I can't get it cause it's too darn expensive) it's a pretty think and light laptop with decent construction and respectable horsepower ( and the retarded decison of having a 4k screen ) whilst having mostly acceptable thermals. It's not a budget laptop you nonce . Plus it should be know Razer is the Apple of pc stuff when it comes to pricing .
>>55077693
nigga u gay

Wow anon u sure are autistic quit sperging out pal
For how ridiculously expensive they are, one would expect something more than "ok", "decent" and "respectable". They should be amazing, and they're not.
Hey /g/ why is modern depiction of hackers so fucking retarded and wrong? I literally got
a question at school on a sheet of paper stating that this total NEET hackerman (30 year old Arch user who browses /tech on 8ch we can assume) had an IQ of 250 and he wore leather to look intimidating to other kids to show he would hack them and he
went by the name of "xX_v1p3R_1hA_hACkEr_Xx" I'm not even fucking lying. Why do people see a person who likes computers and deals with cyber security as Watchdogs 2
tier "hackers" should we just accept the autism...

I hate the term "hackers" as much as the next guy, and have gotten into the whole "the traditional meaning of the word 'hackers'" and "there's a difference between 'hackers' and 'crackers'" debate with people online and in real-life, but fuck. I can't find a term to deal with people who break into systems remotely and steal shit, and "crackers" both sounds weird and sounds like it's more geared towards people who crack software.
