What's the best cross platform office suite? I've seen people say that Libreoffice sucks balls, is that true?
just use microsoft office, there is no replacement
/thread
LibreOffice works just fine.
It is free, so if you don't like it buy MS Office.

Have you guys downloaded LimeWire Pro from LimeWire yet?
>>54412055
Gee dude my sister has been downloading a ton of adware from that thing, last time i told mom she said that i was a liar and that the viruses and stuff come from my games, last night i heard her talking to my dad about not allowing me to use the computer.
Wish me luck guys, gonna go to best buy, cya.
Hello,
for a school project i have made a new method of non-algorithmic encryption.
I don't use keys but what i call dictionaries. Those include all "strings of characters" that can replace a character.
Lets say we have a level 3x3 dictionary: I can swap letter a with 3 different strings, 3 characters in length. With level 35x15 dictionary i can swap every character with 35 different strings, 15 characters in length.
The general idea is that encrypted text is different every time. And you can use multiple dictionaries in some order and in reverse...

How safe is it? Our retarded admin said it would be "dangerous"to use it because muh hackers and because he says there is "a lot of documentation of bittorrent protocol so it's easy to break it".
Is he being a retard authistic faggot or is he right?
IF so are there safer alternatives?
Use syncthing
>>54411863
OP: I tried that, but it's kinda glitchy. And it has a bad habit of synching things too eagerly , its a bother on big folders.
>>54411825
There's two possible cases here:
a.) he really is just a retard
b.) more likely, he knows that he's talking nonsense but is fighting to keep control of the environment he's responsible for. He knows that anything he lets users use he'll be responsible for supporting and securing, so he wants to stop them from just going off and using whatever they want.

Is it even possible for me to get ahold of Publisher 2007 anymore? My grandpa's computer died and he can't navigate anything other than what he's used to. Can I just buy a key from ebay?
just torrent it ffs
>>54411771
Just tell him "Nope, they don't make it anymore, you're shit outta luck"
>He can't navigate anything other than what he's used to.
Yes he can. Honestly speaking, if someone can't make adjustments to adapt to technology, they shouldn't be using it.
Make Mozilla great again!
Are they getting rid of the trigger babies?

Firefox 28 was the last Firefox worth using. 29 is the line.
Now I am just waiting for the end. Thanks for laugh, OP.
>>54411674
I was one of the ones against him being fired, but after seeing what he's done with Brave I'm actually glad he's gone from Firefox.
Sup /g/ for some reason I am not understanding how to set the keys up right. It works fine if I am just chaning X to Y but when I want X to CTRL + Y it doesn't work.
Basically I needed numpad6 to CTRL + - and CTRL + +. I have tried ^+- ^++ ^+-(minus) and a couple others. Could someone please give me the correct code for this?
did you try {NumpadAdd}
>>54411707
How exactly would I type that in? Sorry I don't know very much about coding.
This is what I have so far and only B and E work.
Numpad8::B
NumpadUp::B
Numpad4::Ctrl + {NumpadAdd}
NumpadLeft::Control+{NumpadAdd}
Numpad5::E
NumpadClear::E
Numpad6::^+-(minus)
NumpadRight::^+{NumpadAdd}

Are there any differences in these types of cords/cables that I should know about?
I have a drawer with thirty of them I have accumulated over the years and I don't really pay much attention to which one I use with what other than picking one that feels sturdy.
>>54411621
They're all the same. Pick whichever one is long enough for what you need to do.
As far as I know, they are all exactly the same (connectors) with only differences being the thickness of the actual wire itself. I'm in the same boat with you having 30 of them. They are useful when you need one in a pinch.
>>54411621
A thick cable with oxygen free copper and gold connectors will sound better.
Anything else will sound compressed and not have much dynamics to the sound
I noticed when I switched to audiophile quality power cables, my music sounded less metallic and more natural
I want to be a hardware engineer. I'm studying my A-Levels now (Phys, Chem, Comp. Sci, Maths). Are my subjects proper?
Maybe work on board/chip design. Do we have any engineers here and how did you go about it?
Also, what's your job and how much do you make?
And yes, this is related to /g/, modfags. Ban the shitposters first.
Yeah, you go in the right direction. I'm on the same path as you. Getting my A-levels because I wasted my time by going to IT and finding out that this boring as fuck. No challenge at all. When you go EE you will learn some of everything and after some time you will choose your specialization. Don't haste. You will get there. Good luck my fellow friend :^)
I'm a phd candidate in ECE.
Get through undergrad with scholarships, internships, grants
Get fellowship or assistantship for grad school
get phd with no debt
feels good man

>IC design
Best choice money-wise, as long as you don't plan on staying in Europe. The European semiconductor giants (NXP, STMicro, etc.) are uncompetitive government-subsidized behemoths where you'll be making shit money. At least in America the semiconductor industry is somewhat competitive, and you'll have much better opportunities for career advancement.
Also, don't just learn digital design. Mixed-signal design experience is pretty much the only...

You've come to the right place! Now kindly wait in line on that retractable platform with quicksand and fire-breathing alligators under. We'll address you very shortly.

Hi, just wondering why when I installed Arch it looks really bad compared to what I see in desktop threads.
Thanks
Are you retarded?
>>54411372
Maybe?
>>54411391
You have to rice it, with Arch things don't look good out of the box. I would recommend looking into font rendering packages, install a new gtk theme, and customize OpenBox to your liking.
