Alright /g/ I'm going to have all of summer to work on whatever project I want. What's something I can feasibly do in the time frame of 2-4months that will generate a profit and impress future employers.
I'm a senior CS major. I know most common programming languages.

Make the next best sharing app
This time, you can share... ANYTHING
Pencils, alarm clocks, graphics cards, your girlfriend, closet space, books.
People post "Lending my X for $Y per hour" and then they meet and do the transaction.
You can take a cut off the top or just put ads in the app.
Users will rate each other - so literally nothing bad can get happen like theft/rape.
And you owe me 25% of your company.

>hey /g/, i'm not creative enough to come up with my own ideas for projects, nor am I skilled enough to accomplish anything noteworthy with my limited experience.
dont expect any useful ideas here, the board is filled with neets and chubbers. also, why on earth would anyone give you a money making idea for free?

Considering that's a moving bus, keeping the laptop closer to you provides better stability, so typing on the touchscreen is perfectly logical in that scenario.

Which meme card should i buy ?
AMD Hawaii bros unite.
I feel the same about my R9 280 and i'm eyeing the 490. I saved up enough for the the 390X but I'm willing to wait as it's not as if i have any serious gaming needs currently.
>>54864333
The RX 480 when it's released. Double the performance of your current card for $200.
>>54864392
is there even a 490 announced ?
Everyone is talking about 480 and 1070/80 atm.
Can you guys guess what chip this is

Apple is totally right, these do take up too much space, and are responsible for making out phones extremely thick
>>54864179
Oh good, now we can have thinner phones with even shittier batteries, and as a bonus, i have to replace all my audio accessories that rely on aux and abandon anything that cant be converted all so we can use whatever flavor of connector their pusing this generation.
Apple is cancer, and so are you.

Hey guys I'm new to the /g/ board because I mostly use /b/ but I do enjoy doing amateur beginner programming. At the moment I'm trying to create a socket messenger in python. Do you guys think it's worth it to continue using python and also what could I do to improve it.
*Client:
import socket
TCP_IP = input("Server I.P? ")
TCP_PORT = int(input("Server Port? "))
NAME = input("Your alias? ")
BUFFER_SIZE = 1024
print("[+] Starting Client...")
sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
print("[+]...

Unix, BSD or System V, is fun!

Give it up, Lennart. Theo will never implement systemd.

Why do PC manufacturers always end up copying the worst aspects of Apple's products?
>ONE port (usb type c/thunderbolt)
>priced similarly to the Macbook (although it's impossible to truly compare because you can't equip them exactly the same, the Zenbook has a faster processor and can have more ram at a slightly better price, but the Macbook has a higher resolution screen and better battery life, so it mostly comes down to which you prefer more. Given that the point of these is to be as portable as possible and not be workhorses, imo the macbook has the advantage because of battery life and a better screen, but it's still a shitty value and I don't know why anyone would buy either)
>awful keyboard
You're asking a >>>/biz/ question.
Because it's easier to just copy Apple than come up with their own designs.

meh. it's still tech.
this board is 99% consumerism anyway.
Chairs are technolo/g/y. What chair does /g/ use or recommend?
I recommend a chair.
>>54863619
I should've been specific I guess. Office chairs.
>>54863736
I recommend not using an office chair, unless it's the one your employer provides you at your office.
You live in a home. Buy a chair for a home. They're padded, upholstered, stable and attractive. They don't stick to your body in the heat. There are no cheap plastic surfaces, no crummy pads which wear down over time. If you have hard floors then felt pads under the legs makes them plenty easy to slide around. There is no one-in-a-million chance of a gas cylinder malfunctioning directly into your anus.
Is Urbit the new TempleOS?
https://urbit.org/posts/overview/
As with any dangerous new technology, it's fortunate that Urbit is not yet fully armed and operational. It's our plan to introduce Martian computing gradually, to avoid producing serious social unrest.
...
The Earth software that's most like Martian software is, of course, Lisp. (Lisp claims to be based on lambda, but the connection is in fact dubious - a true lambda language is more like Haskell.) Nouns can be described as "S-expressions without the S" - that is,...

Nobody will ever be able to use this shit nor templeos in a professional or even home computing environment fucking ever, this is worthless psychotic trash that won't amount to anything. Use a real OS like GNU, Mac or Windows, ones you can actually get shit done on.

Same things were said about GUI
>GUI isn't useful! Terminal rules!
Half of the physical objects around you were designed in Solidworks/Inventor/CATIA with a GUI, including cars and airplanes, and rockets.
Urbit is way too esoteric to be talked about on /g/, I've been following it a year and I can't say that I fully understand it.
My issue with it, is that, while stateless, there still no apparent transparency in its computations, which I believe is essential for sane single user computing.
Well, so Unity is now a totally money grab, unless you pay 1500$ a year you wont be able to get rid of their splash screen. That's how ridiculous it has become.
Thinking about switching to UDK or CryEngine, which one would you recommend?
>>54863278
its just a splash screen who cares?
>>54863325
It's not only about that. It's about how they increased their prices, while there are other engines out there (as mentioned, UDK or CE) that are better, and almost totally free.
>>54863278
They already had the splash screen shit before. The splash screen in my experience sets expectations because people have been burned by shitty Unity shovelware before. But paying $75/mo and being forced to subscribe for 12 months (in the old model) just to remove it is a really tough sell since there's no guarantee the game is going to make any money at all... I thought they would change to a more UE-like business model but instead they went even harder on the jewishness.
They only get away with it because...
