You should have worried about it before. Now it's too late.
>>54634649

>have time warner for years
>have their 20 mbps plan cause its all i need no wasted internet
>they are now charter
>this is their cheapest and seems only internet plan
great what the fuck am i supposed to do now? that is way too fucking much so much of it is going to go to waste
this is bullshit why cant companies just stay the same? why do i have to put up with this shit?
oh an
>for the first 12 months
so how much is it AFTER 12 months why the fuck wont they tell me that?
You can't waste Internet. Internet is a infinite resource.
Juat get a new contract after 12 months. And if you canf afford 40 dollars a month you should find a job
I'm paying 55€ for 16mb down (1,6mb max.) 2,4mb up.
Dear /g/-men, meet my college's online email client.
This bug breaks the entire website, you can't even read any emails.
It has been doing this for over 2 fucking years since i started here.
I've gone to the helpdesk there multiple times, even with a fucking solution, but nothing happened.
I just sent them a slightly angry email demanding change and all.
Their response of all the times i physically visited them:
>Have you tried using a different browser?
The most infuriating this is that another browser actually WORKS, but not for the reason it should.
Only browsers who let websites execute an image as if it was javascript work with this program.
I told them repeatedly to change the MIME-type, but they didn't.
>why do people do this to a >30k userbase?
>>54634364
They also simply refuse to open up the ports of the email server so we can use our own email clients.
>that's because it's more secure
The staff has a different domain for their email addresses and they can use their own email clients because they opened up the servers for them.
>>54634364
"$" is definitely a Pajeet code. That's why it doesn't work.
If you're stupid enough, you will find a exploit and publicly expose it, then suggest your solution.

I guess after buying 3 monitors you ran out of money for a case and decent peripherals
>>54634339
The monitors probably cost less than the Mac.
I'm sitting here with university acceptance letters for both a B.S. in computer science and mechanical engineering programs. I plan on accepting one today. The issue is, I'm really having trouble deciding. I don't suppose anyone here actually has any work experience in these fields and can lend their opinion?
>>54634203
If you enjoy math, go Engineering. If not, CompSci.

Computer engineering is a thing also. Cousin did that and makes well over $200k with verizon
>>54634272
I hear that there aren't many computer engineering jobs in North America. Seems like the majority of those are overseas.
What is your personal view on phones life span?
What phone do you have?
-Physical endurance
-Design
-Social shame over old phone
-Gets slow/lagging
I'll begin:
Samsung S5, expect 4 years before it's useless?
-It is still mint
-Not bad, it's just minor difference with newer models in my eyes
-Some shame, my friends got dollah and switches to the latest models
-Lags as soon as two things are going on at once. Slightly anoying, only reason to upgrade to new phone at this point

First 2 years of Galaxy S4 (no custom software, was newfag then). Ran great, no issues, maybe two factory reset.
Next 6 Months, battery became meh, barely a full day. Do lot of power saving.
Next 3 Months, phone randomly turns off. Sim card not detected half the time.
Next 3 months, phone turns off for any charge under 70%. Pinkish screen, Sim card barely recognized.
2 years for functional usage is the standard. Phones aren't made to last much longer, they're designed for you to always buy a new one (it's a consumer normy tech remember). You can push to 3 maybe 4 if you're a godsend, but i took good care of mine.
Tldr 2 years
Galaxy S2 master race reporting in. 4 or 5 years.
Dropped it over 50 times.
No problems so far.
Why are printers still such dogshit in the current year?
Who the fuck needs a printer? Do you even digital?
because things are expensive, and children refuse to accept this.
>>54634375
Even expensive printers are shit.
All I read about in reviews and shit are microchips inside cartridges and other shit that make a printer just stop printing after a certain number of prints. Why is this shit allowed?
the buttmad must be off the charts for a new 980 or titan X buyer...
>>54634073
No you're retarded, the benchmarks are already out and its at most 20% faster than titan x/980ti while at the same time reaching dangerously high temps. It's fermi all over again
In exchange, you pay $700 for an overclocked 980Ti that runs at 104C.
I see no place for this card, it looks like a pile of garbage.
>>54634073
It's sad because even though it's performing better than a 980 ti, it's going to cost more, and people will fucking buy it.
The city of Helsinki has quietly launched a programme to teach 100 asylum seekers the art of software programming – or coding. The city is hoping that the pilot will kill two birds with one stone – by easing the shortage of coders in the software industry and providing a fast track for the newcomers to find work and integrate into Finnish society.
One of the initial participants in the Integrify training programme, Iraqi Eyastaha, traveled through ten countries to get to Finland. He recently found out that he’d received a job offer, although he’s been in the country for less than six months and doesn’t know the language.
He said that he intends to wholeheartedly throw himself into his budding career but already has his sights set on something bigger.
"Of course I want to focus on work as well as I can, but maybe in five years I can begin my own startup."

>>54633954
Fuck off we are full
>politicians falling for the "We don't have enough developers meme"
We do have enough developers, we just don't have enough good ones. If you train someone for a year or less he probably won't become good
> Asylum seekers who’ve been selected for Helsinki’s pilot training programme will learn the use of coding languages such as HTML and CSS – often used for building websites or applications.
>HTML and CSS
Wow, such high tier development
Is there any way of installing something like Ubuntu mate on one of these?
10.1inch 10.1" Netbook VIA 8880 Dual Core PC Android 4.4.2 CPU 1.5GHz Wifi 1G RAM 8GB HDD HDMI (Russian Keybard option)

>ARM
>dual-core ARM too
>1GB RAM
>8GB HDD
>on a laptop
Are you brain damaged?
>>54633963
It's cheap, and something like Ubuntu mate should run fine for web browsing and note taking.
>>54633963
>>54633969
Also specs are so shit I literally won't be able to do anything but study on it, so it's perfect for uni.
What's the largest phablet available with the best specs?

Instagram fucked up their timeline order so it isn't chronological. I have no clue what posts I am missing now. Im a software engineering student with alot of time on his hands, any programmers on here know if it would be possible to make an application that scrapes and reorders a user's instagram feed?
>software engineering student
>doesnt know what API is
>register an app as a developer
>get news feed data in json requests
>get unix epoch time data in array, sort by it

Going to get a gtx 970 soon, problem is my hardware is outdated.
Pic related are the specs. (psu = bfgr450wgspsu)
What parts need upgrading and what should I replace them with so that things run smoothly? (I'm on a budget, willing to go somewhat cheap)
Pic related are my specs... (psu = bfgr450wgspsu)
>>54633457
>970
rest of the build is ok
psu aim around 600w
>Going to get a gtx 970 soon, problem is my hardware is outdated.
So is your GPU if you buy a 970
>>54633484
Shouldn't I upgrade the cpu at least? I read that my current one is shit when it comes to running modern aaa games and that it will cause quite a bit of bottlenecking.

I'll start:

I sometimes lay down next to open computer cases while I'm working on them and feel/hear the hum of the electronics. Sometimes I fall asleep to it.
