I've been slowly learning vim over a couple of years and ocasionally look over at emacs and wonder if its something I should be familiar with. Vim or vi is usually shipped standard with most linux distros and I can't really see any good reason to learn a second set of autistic key combinations. From a glance it looks like emacs avoided vim's 3 mode brand of special but it doesn't seem like theres a clear advantage to one over the other.
Nice blog m8 now fuck off
Oh you saw the latest episode of Silicon Valley too huh

do you like vim? stick with it.
do you dislike vim? try emacs.
personally, i like vim. my uni made us try both and vim just stuck, so i never went back trying emacs again because i was never unhappy with what i had. whatever you do, though, i would suggest you avoid trying to solve non-existant problems; they say you should pick an editor and git gud with it instead of changing your tools all the time and never learn any of them properly.
Anyone else using Google cardboard for porn? Tips?

I tried, my phone weighs too much for my comfort
>>54816109
but was it good though?
My friend wants to buy a new phone, but he's not sure which one to get. He's deciding between these 2:
Nexus 5x
Samsung Galaxy S6
>>54815771
Nexus
how about iPhone?

Is it possible to retrieve a list of the post numbers in a given 4chan thread, either by custom CSS or something using the 4chan API?
...my next question is, how would I go about doing that?
yes, read the 4chan api.
e.g. pic related.
>>54815786
That looks pretty complex. I'll just smoke some weed instead
AMD or Intel?
this is clearly something that you should be able to figure out on your own based on your needs/budget.
Intel because it just works
Depends on your budget/needs
Whats /g/'s monitor brand?

I was gonna get a qnix which is 1440p and has a Samsung panel but I still haven't gotten it yet
I want to learn OpenGL, but it all looks very confusing.
What's the best OpenGL tutorial series? I really want to understand it and how it works.
>>54815229
This book.
>>54815229
OpenGL is difficult at first, but it gets easier afterwards.
It helps if you know basic linear algebra and calculus, but it isn't necessary.

its for legacy opengl, but should be a good place to get started
Thinking about buying a hp proliant g8 microserver to replace my Synology ds214+. I mainly would use it as a plex media server + file server. Thoughts?
they are not strong for decoding unless you get a compatible videocard to fit into it's expansion slot.
you can also upgrade to an unsupported faster cpu.
both have their disadvantages depending what you want to do with the server.
I have one, they are pretty good for what you want. Make sure you install windows server on it if you want to take full advantage of the hardware raid
>>54816247
>Windows Server
bwahaha
What did he/she mean it's a technological nightmare?
she probably meant "run off to your faggot sekret club on 4chan and ask them what to say next"
also jesus fucking christ you write a fuckload considering how obvious her signals are that she doesn't want to talk to you.

Question: what laptop should I get for a computer science degree? Macbook Pro or PC? If PC, what model would you recommend?
Or should I just pool my money into building a kickass desktop gaming computer and use a tablet for taking notes?
>pic unrelated
>>54814809
fuck off
>>54814809
There are many people suggesting to build a powerful desktop and get a cheap but portable laptop, as you hardly ever need a lot of computing power on the go.
Anyway, personally I didn't do that. I bought a reasonably performant rMBP and just plug it to a monitor both in my office at university and at home. It's nice not having to think about synching separate devices.
If you go with the first possibility, I wouldn't go with Apple though, just not worth it at all.

This is not the right place for this. Friendly reminder that, for example, the people here compare cpu architectures based on a fucking phone's discharge cycle.
>>54814687
Wow! It's fucking nothing!
If the baseline of you bargraph isn't zero, it's a fucking lie.
I am living with my gf's family for the summer and the connection situation is awful.
They have Comcast, and the default router. To get to my girlfriends room it needs to penetrate two walls and I get both slow speeds and unstable pings.
The WiFi channel is crowded as well. I added an E2500 and just have that broadcasting as well and it at least allows me to browse the internet decently well.
I need to know how I can fix this situation. There are about 7-8 devices connected and I need some way to get me at least stable ping (for gaymen). Better network speeds would be nice too (at 8mbps tops right now).
What router should I look for? And how can I go about replacing the default Comcast Router/Modem. It is the kind that supports telephony and has a battery backup. I would be willing to spend up to $300 on equipment if it can give me stable ping with around 20mbps of network speed.
>>54814596
Get a 4g or 3g modem.
>>54814596
Funny. For me to get to your girlfriend my dick didn't have to penetrate any walls. Wierd how the world works sometimes

I don't get why they would prioritize throttling over turning up the fan. It never got above 70% until he set it manually and when he did it made a real difference.
Haha, Nvidicucks have been on suicide watch ever since the 1080 got released. AMD wins yet again.
>>54814574
I'm pretty hyped and want one desu fampai
but I'm not switching from a 980, much older model
so
ASUS Wins!
The Zenbook 3 is thinner, smaller and lighter than the 12" Macbook.
Has full Intel i7, none of this Core M crap, up to 16GB RAM, 1TB nvme SSD while having 9+ hours battery life.
>inb4 300 cycle dellshills
>i7
hmm, might just be enough to run winshit without lag
just kidding hahaha

It's not our fault that you're dumb.
Jus go to the command line and type: sudo fix-everything
