You can't make this shit up any more, Apple's quality has GONE DOWN THE FUCKING TOILET
"This appears to be related to an attempt to update the firmware of the NFC IC/chip during the update/restore process.
Multiple mentions in the update logs regarding opening and failing serial UART commands on the NFC IC. Oddly (and suspiciously) the logs show the restore/flashing tool for the NFC IC is being told to load firmwares for two different NXP NFC ICs. After the tool fails to flash the NFC IC it triggers the restore to fail with code 56 as I'm guessing...

Ok /g/ I've encountered something strange.
Used Make MKV to rip blu-ray movie (1080p)
Put giant 1080p mkv file into handbrake, with high profile defaults. RF=20.
Tried again, put 1080p mkv file into handbrake, with high profile defaults. RF=20. But this time I set the output resolution to 720p.
Both files are the same fucking size.
Why is the 720p file the same size as the 1080p file?
You didn't change the bitrate, you dumbasfuck
>>54593637
Constant quality, there is no bitrate setting to change.
>>54593637
Theoretically the 720p file should have come out aprox half the size of 1080p
Chromebooks get a bad wrap because they don't come preinstalled with windows and ignorant people start rambling on about how bad of an idea chromeOS is. Many understand that with coreboot, seaBIOS can be built from source to install any OS you want (doesn't have to be). There's even a linux distro specifically for chromebooks, although mine runs fine on hydrogen/debian. I'm sure the windows guys out there are thinking "why bother?" but really theyre the some of the most cost effective laptops out there.
I picked up a Samsung Series 5 550...

the one sole reason why I hate chromebooks
>>54592823
valid argument, when I made a windows server vm I had to press ctrl-alt-delete and was stumped for a second cause no delete key.
thankfully virtualbox anticipated that and I just had to click the option in the menu.

Not everyone can have that matte black, soft-touch rubberized coating. Ahem, I mean wrapping.
Hey /g/, I'm considering buying a godaddy domain plus hosting to make a nice but simple website to promote my Music. The only thing is that i have no experience at all when it comes to writing websites, so I'm wondering:
What programming language would be most suitable? Would it be viable to go in blind with no previous experience and expect to have a semi-functioning website by the end of summer?
>>54592528
just use squarespace
>>54592632
Thanks Linus
>>54592528
Use WordPress or drupal or something. If you do it yourself you'll have to learn tons of shit and it'll still look like the 90's.
This changes EVERYTHING, again.
oh man it's so epic lulz btfo of you to make that totally cool new image.

Are the Nexus 5/6, iphone 6, and moto x pure the only phones that work on all major US carriers? By that I mean the devices use every god damned frequency band instead of carrier specific frequencies, so you can actually say go fuck yourself when you're getting ripped off.
I'm about to pull the trigger on the moto x pure, but I'm really annoyed by the integral battery. Did my share of googling and just wanted to make sure there's nothing failed to mention.

When will marketing towards gaymers stop? Does every single, fucking, component of a PC needs to have some gayming branding in order to appeal towards a generation of complete fucktards who wasted money on a computer that used for games and shit posting? Are we going to see MSi and ASUS release a line of gaymer-oriented SATA cables that have nothing more than the company logo and a stupid graphic decorated on it? Are we going to see 120mm fans, CD/DVD/BD drives, or even fucking CMOS batteries marketed towards gaming faggots?
PC gaming has the be the biggest meme ever.
anyone outside of the gaymerz cult doesn't fall for advertising.
>>54591758
The Barracuda doesn't have gaming branding.
You sound like a horrible person.
>>54591758
>When will marketing towards gaymers stop?
what other large market would pay a markup?
what do you want? they want to sell extra, unnecessary features to people.
would it be preferable to see that server grade hard drives be 20x as expensive as less reliable consumer grade stuff purely to eke out the profits companies would lose not marketing and charging a premium to gamers?
When I read SICP, should I pirate the instructors manual?

You technically can't pirate that which is shared freely.

>The first chapter is the most fun.
Not true at all, the last two chapters are the best by far, you get to write a meta-language and compiler. However, you really can't just skip to them and it's a long road to get there.
Does anyone else find electronics recycling as interesting as I do?
i cant do that as a job

it would get boring pretty fucking quickly
Schools all over the United States are buying Perfected Machines for their children. Those children would go on to get great jobs and do great things.
Is it me or whenever I see a ton of Macs in one location, it gives a sense of Autistic Clarity and Happiness.

>Perfected Machines
what?
satirizing a character only works if you're capable of nuance. if you're too stupid for that, don't try it. you come off looking like an even bigger retard than if you just played it straight.
>>54591213
The Machines have a very high price that contributes 99.9% of the U.S. Tax Debt which is 197 billion dollars.
This very computer lab costs the school dearly and will put it out of business. Thus making the iMacs in the photo downright wonderfully Perfkekted.

Makes sense.
its perfect condition, but you just need a charger its a measley 10-20 dollars online, i bought this from amazon. It did not turn on because the battery needed juice so i got my money back and got a t420 i plugged it in boom it works. so i don't need the t500 anymore. So it has windows 10 preloaded what ever the fuck the guy was doing to put it on their because the subscription said windows 7 but anywho im asking you guys if you want it. I will jump on mobile and show photos of it if you like. Leave emails anything i can get inconact if you want the thing.
>>54591034
i forgot to mention it has the finger print scanner on the laptop, i have not tested to see if this works yet.

I'll take it, email me. [email protected]
Is it really shutting down?
>>54590858
No, but now they limit free user downloads, so they might be just as good as dead.
>>54590872
So for personal storage of files it's OK?
I use it to backup my sample & and project file libraries
>>54590884
I wouldn't trust a cloud storage for personal info and projects.
Or, I would use 2 of them for reliability.
Welp guys ive got quite a problem External Hardrive wouldnt start after several attempts and connecting it to various computers
Took apart the enclosure and connected it internally
After a long boot session none of the files where showing but the hardrive showed that it had 660 of 930 gb on it
checked if hidden files was off, it was on
now im looking into data recovery any suggestions?
perferably free or perhaps one of you guys has a solution to being able to see the data
>>54590725
so just to be clear the HDD works but the data may be lost or corrupted; after checkign a few free data recovery services, the data may not be gone and it actually is for the most part there just cant access it(since im running trial versions of recovery software)
>>54590725
sometimes I wonder how many of the 9gag pictures are bait and how many are just poor saps that don't know what they're doing
