/sqt/ Stupid Questions Thread
Post all your small and stupid questions that don't deserve their own thread.
What host are they referring to here and how do I access it?
I need help on deciding what to buy next.
Pic related is my current specs.
Should up upgrade to the 6700k, Maximus VIII Hero Alpha, and 3200 Mhz DDR4 RAM or upgrade my monitor to the Asus PG278Q?

Are programs bloated nowadays or it is natural evolution of memory use?
>>54985295
It's literally pointless bloat that is there to intentionally slow down the user in order for them to see upgrading and spending more money as the only possible option to get rid of lag.
>>54985295
It's both.
Define bloated. If you want to return to 1993 and severely limited UI interactivity, go right ahead.
Look at this fucking graph.
Look at how awful an investment Kepler was.
Highlights:
>GTX 760 is now slower than R7 370, which is a rebrand of HD 7850. 7850 cost $150 when the GTX 760 was released for $300
>GTX 770, an overclocked 680, is now barely any faster than R9 270X, which is a rebranded HD 7870. From this we can extrapolate that 680 == 7870
>GTX 780 is now equal to R9 280X, which is a rebranded 7970 clocked at 1000MHz. From this we can say that the 780 is now slower...

Nobody cares, AYYMDPOORFAG. Not all of us are NEET losers who can't afford to upgrade our GPU once a year. Enjoy your 5% gain over 5 years whilst Nvidia race off over the horizon.
i'm never buying nvidia again
Fuck off AMDrone shill cucks.
The new 1080 is the most powerful card ever made, and not buying it would be some typical AMcuck mistake.
Just because you're a bunch of neckbeard autistic shills who don't understand economics doesn't mean shit to me, you're just proud of your inferior and low owner systems.
Plus the fury x is the worst fucking overheated cuck card ever, which will never be able to compete with Nvidia superiority

Why does everyone single job ask for Java or C++ or (windows related languages) experience? I mean literally 99 % of programming jobs.
Why is python almost never mentioned? Is it really such a meme language? What kills it? Its slowness?
Broken threading, single core
Python is programming for non-programmers.
If you want to use python, look for a job at a startup doing data analysis.

I want to build a new PC after rx 480 release. Should I go for a DDR3 or DDR4 build?

Please include the word "question" somewhere in the post next time.
Well, can you, nerd?
How often do you upgrade to a newer smartphone?
Whenever mine breaks.

Why do autists want anything else than a black cube for their case?
>>54983496
Honestly why does /g/ care so much about what other people buy. It does not affect you in any way. There are still elegant Fractal Design cases on the market. Praise capitalism and open market.
why do /g/ autists get their OCD triggered when people use something other than a black case?
this shit is ugly as fuck and so is fractal design. you have to find a balance between ricer shit and boring black boxes. corsair does a good job at that.

Perfect for measuring theoretical performance of HW and nothing else.

implying there's anything wrong with this method
32 bits + 32 bits = 64 bits
if you have 32 and add another 32 you get 64. 64 bits windows.
>>54983214
I think it depends if you install the second instance in parallel or series.
>>54983195
Okay? Everybody fucking knows it's stupid to spend the extra money for 64 bit Windows when you can just install 32 twice for less money. OP is a faggot.
Why are Nvidia cards so ugly?
>>54982899
are you fucking retarded. this is the best looking card I've seen. Would literally pay $500 only for the case and the fan.
>>54982949
Wat
>>54982970
yeah, but this card has no stealth technology. enjoy being detected by radars.
Is this the hero /g/ deserves?
>>54982890
No. He's a fucking idiot.

Friendly reminder that all linux distros come with an ssh daemon enabled by default and it's set up on port 22, and root access is enabled.
Anyone on the same network as you have an unlimited attack vector to bruteforce your password and gain root access to your machine over the network.
If you don't believe me, just try logging into your own box withssh localhost

No one cares. Fuck off you cancerous piece of shit.

Feels good man.
>>54982548
congrats :^)
>>54982548
story please!!
>>54982548
Is it a paid internship or did you just convince them to let you work for free?
>buy a Intel CPU
Good goyzh
What the fuck do you want from us?
I don't know why I bothered to post this or even open this thread.
Please end my life.
>>54982545
hey man. as long as i get better performance for cheaper, i'm fine
but cpus do not apply to that rule because upgrading from an amd cpu to an intel cpu for better performance would cost more money than to just buy intel in the first place. i do buy amd gpus though.
