Why does Linux have worse battery life on laptops than Windows 10?
>>55623196
because of your bad configuration
>>55623196
Depends on your DE.
KDE is geared towards desktops
>>55623196
because you're an idiot and it depends on the distro and your brightness.
Who here 90% of the time on their phone like this?

Google had a free machine learning course at some point. Anyone know where to find that shit?
Google search, ironically, gives a bunch of paid coursera/udacity courses.
>>55622485
Machine learning?
>>55622485
probably teaches how you to train a botnet

Nice FUCKING meme you fucking SPERGLORD FAGSHIT. Holy FUCK it pisses me off when some unoriginal, retarded assholish dickweed decides it would just be FUCKING HILARIOUS to post the SAME. OVERUSED. JOKE. What do you even fucking hope to gain out of this? Karma? Well you're certainly getting that, cause it seems like a lot of other inbred shitface fucking retarded autistic fuckshits are thinking you're just FUCKING HILARIOUS and that this joke HASN'T BEEN MADE A BILLION FUCKING TIMES. FUCK you.
When will we start to see more matx boards available for the z170?
Why does a midranged cpu need a dual socket/larger motherboard?

Larger? You mean smaller? Almost all the offerings aside from a handful are full atx

Hey /g/ I'm poor and I need an e-reader, what do you recommend that isn't complete shit?
I cangetthe Amazon Fire 6 for like 60 bucks, but reviews make it out to be like shit.
I was thinking the Nook HD 7" seemed decent enough and pretty cheap.

>>55622436
I'd consider this, but the battery life is shit it seems

Go to a goodwill outlet, I got a perfectly working one on the spot for 5 dollars
So is Windows 10 good yet? I know the Anniversary update is coming up soon.
Are you still unable to disable updates?
Did you even read about the updates? It's all useless shit like cortana, edge and botnet.
10 is good if you can find a LTSB image which doesn't have Cortana and all the other shit
No. It's still an unfinished mess and the next big updates fixed and adds only shit that literally NO ONE asked for.
I've used it since it came out and would've defended it as a good OS but the shit they keep pulling made me go back to 7. Fuck them. Seriously.
If the botnet already knows the answer to these things, how does my input 'help' them in any way?
Like why am I picking street signs? Why am I entering in people's home addresses? If I make a bad decision on purpose, like operation renigger, it somehow knows already so what is the point? Is reniggering impossible now? Is that the reason they went full-retard with reCAPTCHA™ now?
Why can't we have more human-readable/friendly ones if there's no point and it isn't training a recurrent deep neural memenet? Isn't *accurate* data necessary to train one of those? How can you train on data with the responses from a captcha?
Someone explained this to me one time but I'm dumb.
>>55622243
The point of reCAPTCHA is that it doesn't know all, only parts of it. Like the two word thing, it only knows one of the two words and is trying to learn the second. That's why you for a long time could enter "nigger" instead of the second word.
The image recognition thing is related. Google is using some machine learning algorithm to recognise pictures of street signs. There are often N pictures of street signs, but only N-1 pictures are actually required (because it tries to learn about the last one).
>>55622243
The botnet doesn't already know the answer. In your picture, the botnet knows the answer to either the first word or the second word. You don't know which word the botnet knows, so you have to answer both to the best of your abilities. After a while, the botnet takes the most common answer to the unknown word.
>>55622321
>After a while, the botnet takes the most common answer to the unknown word.
Ah yes, this was the piece of the puzzle I was missing. Thanks!
So I'm trying to play a file, but it refuses to play or if I use more capable players, it just produces blank/black frames.
KM player produces this (header data?)
>pic related
Any ideas?
I looked at the info with MediaInfo and it says this .avi is MPEG format.
I also tried 'video/header repair' utilities, but they don't seem to work
>>55622124
MediaInfo
this is what one person had to say:
> it looks like a modified version of the normal AVI container format. There's a 16-byte long "Neople Video Fil" [sic!] header at the start, followed by another 16 bytes with file size and a few other fields I'm not sure of. After that header it looks like a regular RIFF AVI container, except the "movi" chunk is a regular chunk that video players can't parse, because they expect a list chunk. I'm not knowledgeable enough about video formats to convert these to standard AVI format. Video data might be using a custom codec or something too. There's also a few hundred bytes of weird junk data at the end of these. Not sure if they're at all significant.
>EDIT: Looks like a headerless idx1 chunk at the end, but the number of records doesn't seem to match the number of frames, and they don't point to chunks either, but raw data. Sticking the movi chunk in a list chunk doesn't really help either; there's only one data chunk that abruptly leads to a flood of headerless data that can't be read as a list.
try ffmpeg

Why would you ever buy a Raspberry Pi?
If you power off wrong, the entire SD card gets corrupted and you lose your OS and all your settings and files.
>>55621987
Why would you not have backup of your settings and files?
Especially if they are stored on a fucking SD card?
>>55622030
So you play 4 hours into some game ROM and then have to immediately backup your savestate/memorycard file to another device so to not risk losing all your progress
>>55621987
How can i Power it off wrong?
Just Hit the "turn off" ui?!
I'm going through LPTHW and I believe he's teaching python 2, while I'm using three. I'm getting a syntax error for one of his exercises, does /g/ care to assist?
my_name = 'Chinaman'
my_age = 25
my_height = 60 #Inches
my_weight = 145 #lbs
my_eyes = 'black'
my_teeth = 'kinda white'
my_hair = 'black'
print("Let's talk about %s" % my_name)
print("He's %d inches tall!" % my_height)
print("He weighs %d pounds" % my_weight)
print("He's apparently %s years old" % my_age)
print("He's got %s eyes and %s hair" % (my_eyes, my_hair))
print("His teeth Is usually %s" % my_teeth)
print('If I add %d, %d, and %d I get %d') % (my_age, my_height, my_weight, my_age + my_height + my_weight)
Syntax error Is as follows:
print('If I add %d, %d, and %d I get %d') % (my_age, my_height, my_weight, my_age + my_height + my_weight)
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for %: 'NoneType' and 'tuple'
Why are you trying to learn python 3 with a python 2 guide

Parentheses down at the bottom.
If you can't figure this out by yourself how will you deal with the programming near the end of the book?

I'm looking to build a tiny server to sit up next to my modem and wireless router. I want this to SSH into and play around with. I did this previously with early 2000's bulky desktops but I'm tired of that now.
This tiny case is for an mini ATX board. Does anyone have memory/processor/board recommendations?
Depends what you're trying to do.
If you're just going to mess around, get a raspberry pi. Latest Raspberry Pi 3 has:
SoC: Broadcom BCM2837
CPU: 4× ARM Cortex-A53, 1.2GHz
GPU: Broadcom VideoCore IV
RAM: 1GB LPDDR2 (900 MHz)
Networking: 10/100 Ethernet, 2.4GHz 802.11n wireless
Bluetooth: Bluetooth 4.1 Classic, Bluetooth Low Energy
Storage: microSD
GPIO: 40-pin header, populated
Ports: HDMI, 3.5mm analogue audio-video jack, 4× USB 2.0, Ethernet, Camera Serial Interface (CSI), Display Serial Interface (DSI)

Stop being autistic. Save your money and just run a VM on your desktop.
PCengines Alix or PCengines APU.
They're nice and low-power. I run one for my home server.
People told me about the emoji thing on Google, although I'm not seeing it.

Hey guys, I am not the best when it comes to pc's and I am looking to upgrade my shit GPU to a gtx 980 ti. It is apparently really big and I was wondering if it would fit in my case which is a acer predator g3-605 (pic related)
thanks guys
What size case? Full size atx? Micro atx?
>>55621152
Micro-atx, just googled it.
In theory it should fit, but I looked at interior photos and holy fucking shit that is bottom tier right there.
OP just buy a decent case as well to go with it.
It should fit, 980ti is big but your case should have the length for it.
If you're gonna drop 400$+ on a gpu I suggest a a larger case anyway, they're not too expensive
