what do you guys think of chromebooks?
Its the future!!! cloud computing?
>>54844447
do they still run that shitty os?
yes chromeos
>>54844447
They're literally trash. I'd rather take Cook's dick up my ass than deal with ChromeOS. What a worthless operating system.
DUDE
IT'S FUCKING BEAKMAN!!!

>tfw lester died irl
Hold me /g/
I liked this show...
>Zaloom(Beakman) is openly gay[2][3][4] and has a daughter, Amanda Israel Finley, with his former wife Jayne Israel.[5]
how did this happen
Why does /g/ celebrate the failure of some tech companies? Like AMD or Mac. Don't you realize that less competition is bad? That the prices of the prevailing company (Nvidia/Microsoft) would go up?
>implying /g/ isn't completely overrun with mindless consumer drones that worship their brand of choice
It's like you aren't even a good goy.
AMD can never die, intel is too scared of being labeled a monopoly, so they keep AMD alive by throwing them a bone every now and again.
Why do you think intel hasn't been in any hurry to go to 10nm?
>>54844316
Because it's an engineering nightmare.
POO IN IT

What's wrong with HIV? Sounds like OP is a cis white man scum.
>>54844176
Agreed. Quit shaming people for having a disability op!
They should all be proud!

statistically southern white christians have aids and are pedophiles
Why are the Chinese so nice /g/?
All American eBay sellers treat me like garbage but Chinese sellers always reply quickly and send these nice little notes and extra things.
I ordered a Pentium M 755 and got thermal paste.
>>54843990
Well Chinese people may act friendly due their culture but they aren't that nice to each other. In Western countries we just want to make our deal get the money without any problem's.
>>54843990
Because they're at the mercy of ebay/aliexpress.
If they get one too many negative reviews, it'll seriously impact their ranking in the search results and possibly lead to automated forced refunds because paypal and alipay always side with the buyer on all transactions, even if the buyer is lying about never receiving the package.
>>54843990
>All American eBay sellers treat me like garbage
Probably because they're hardened veteran sellers who know the kind of bullshit customers get away with while sellers get fucked over time and time again. Chinese probably don't have a choice, it's their way of putting food on the table, by raising themselves above the hundreds of other identical sellers.
Why are apps on iOS marginally better than their Android counterparts? Examples like Snapchat, Messenger and Spotify typically gain more attention, more features, more fluidity and are updated first.
Why is this?
>>54843880
because applefags make them more money
>>54843880
Because droidcucks have no standards and developers know that.
>>54843880
>Examples like Snapchat, Messenger and Spotify typically gain more attention, more features, more fluidity and are updated first.
Because there's practically no hardware and OS fragmentation.
With android you're dealing with literally hundreds of different models of devices from dozens of manufacturers running unique or near-unique versions/copies of each Android OS (of which there are dozens of versions and subversions).
Android apps are expectedto support just about every android phone. iPhone apps only need to support the latest hardware with the latest OS, since apple is perfectly okay with telling you "this app is not compatible with your OS/device" and forcing an upgrade.
Check out developing with the Android SDK vs iPhone, the first thing you do in any development project is select the backwards compatibility level you want (android SDK version). For a new iPhone app project it is defaulting to only compatible with the most recent 2 devices and major OS version.
Okay,So I have a sensor glove I'm building.
It will use conductive thread prefferably stainless so it's machine washable. There will be a power, ground, and two data lines.I need the power to be between 3.1 and 3.3 volts or it will shut off or not work properly.The modules at the finger tips of the four fingers should use about 60mA per finger module, with the micro consuming about 20mA. So under 100mA nominally per finger.
It will be about 6 inches of 4 strands of conductive wire per finger.
For solutions I'm thinking maybe I can braid a few strands of copper into the conductive thread to help.
Also maybe I can up the voltage going to the modules to combat resistance and then add some resistors to bring the excess power down to 3.3 volt.
Any help is appreciated I'm kinda new at this.
Bump :/
>>54843774
Sounds cool, anon. Good luck with this!
Don't pout at /g/'s indifference, the audience is pretty stupid here. Stupid gamers and neckbeards.
You might be better off in /diy/ or /sci/ with this. The extent of /g/ is mostly coding and consumer tech.
Still, good thread. I only wish my electrical knowledge were better so I could help, anon.

Are you ready for the future?
Why does /g/ claim that AI personal assistants are not the future when clearly everyone is waiting to get their hands on robot that will help them around?
>>54843756
>>54844304
it might just be me, but i like my computer because i know exactly what's going on when i do something
taking that away in place of a cutesy robot voice is really fucking irritating

How can AMD compete when Intel already has a 10 core? Zen will only have 8 cores and I'm sure their IPC won't be 25% higher than Broadwell.
>>54843746
There will be Zen chips with 16 cores.
They can't.
It's over, AMD is finished.
>How can AMD compete
the smaller you are, the less you need to eat to survive
Is there a chink Gear VR that's just as good but cheaper?
What the hell is in this thing that makes it worth so much money anyway? It doesn't even have positional tracking.
>>54843601
Just get google cardboard
>>54843903
I had that and it was really bad.
>>54843601
holy fuck.. people are really paying $100 usd for a plastic tube with a headband?
Who was right?
>>54843478
The FBI, obviously. Apple was just trying to leverage the situation for marketing purposes. "Buy our phones everyone, we ""care"" about your privacy! (until the point when we realise we can use data about you to sell more iAds :P )"
Utter cunts. Holding up a police investigation to catch two MURDERERS for the sake of their bottom line. Such a stunt should be illegal.
>>54843478
The fbi, because even if someone owns the device the software on it and all the data is legal property of apple making it apples responsibility
>>54843478
It doesn't matter who was right, apple products are compromised either way. If they can't even defend you against some federal agents barely able to use internet explorer then you can't expect to be protected against hackers who deploy large scale malicious attacks through hardware and software backdoors.
I sold my iphone 6s on ebay when I heard about the FBI breaking into that iphone. Some other dumb fuck can have that poorly secured piece of shit.
Greetings, /g/. What are you using for drive encryption? Pic related is what I still use. VeraCrypt is what I was considering but as it seems, even Steve Gibson still recommends TrueCrypt.
wasn't its encryption cracked?
Self encrypting drive.
Because I don't care about the NSA, I just don't want the random nigger who steals my Thinkpad(TM) to get hold of my data.
I'm using veracrypt.
how long before technology changes people into something more than human?
>>54843339
Three possibilities:
1) Collapse - financial/environmental/pandemic. Never. (welcome to https://www.reddit.com/r/collapse )
2) We fail to develop AGI due to research roadblocks, moore's law dying, or mild economic collapse, or maybe just elites blocking AGI progress due to legit fear of losing status quo. Very long time, hundred+ years.
3) AGI is developed and put to work on human molecular biology. ~10 years from that point in time you will have the tech to modify humans, but will society use it?
I'd prefer 3, but 1 and 2 can happen as well.
>>54843339
You are not a singularityfag, are you?
>>54843339
So far it seems to be doing a good job at making us less than human. Even the best humans can't survive without it for more than a couple of months.
Is Trend Micro Titanium worth installing? I found the box, i never installed the anti virus from 2014. I can still install it, but has /g/ ever heard of trend micro? I installed malwarebytes on my freshly 1 month built computer. But, i prefer the anti virus Common sense, since im not retarded. So /g/ is trend micro any good? I heard instances where trend micro has broken into people's facebooks, and locked it until someone purchased further trend micro shit.
bump, please if its trash i'll try to sell it to someone lol
trend is pretty resource heavy and full of bloat, malwarebytes is better
>>54843559
should i just try trading it or selling it?
is this boot setup possible?
yes it is
no it's not
maybe it could be done
