So why are you using BSD Anon?
>>54124062
I'm not.
>>54124062
Only /g/ refers to the BSD family as "BSD". If you asked an OpenBSDer if he "used BSD", he would probably kill you.
>>54124108
Spare me the pedantry please.
Is there a better way to refer to all of the BSDs at once?

So, my LiveWire power strip was making a rattling noise so I took it apart and I found what was making the noise: a rectangular piece of translucent yellow plastic.
Anybody know what the purpose of this is, or if it would hurt anything if I removed it?
Also, is there any benefit to EMI shielding the housing of the power strip with copper shielding tape or is that just dumb?
What windows should I pirate? 7,8.1 or 10?
What activator should I use?
If I would go with 8 or 10 can I make them not look like androids?
I want to create longer passwords, but I can't hold 20~64 characters in my brain. How can I accomplish this?

Welcome to /fglt/. We are always open to users of all levels, including absolute beginners.
There are four ways to try GNU/Linux, you can:
0) Install a GNU/Linux OS on a VM (Virtual Machine/VirtualBox) for "safety purposes"
1) Use the Live ISO directly without installing anything, that way, you can get a "full GNU/Linux experience".
2) Dual-boot GNU/Linux with Windows/Mac (recommended if you want to learn more about GNU/Linux)
3) Go balls deep and overwrite everything with GNU/Linux
Before asking, please search for answers to your questions in resources.
Please be civil, notice the "Friendly" in every Friendly GNU/Linux Thread.
Understand that much of your software from Windows will be unavailable, although maybe WINE can make up for it.

Currently running arch, but this is looking tempting, what kind of changes can I expect? Is it worth it? Pros/Cons over arch? Ubuntu has been looking pretty slick lately.
>>54120148
I'm personally switching to Ubuntu 16.04 from Arch because although I like the AUR compared to Ubuntu's annoying PPA system, updating software from the AUR takes too long when I have to keep compiling it.
Software from Arch's official repos are faster to install compared to Ubuntu though.
>>54120178
any other reasons you want to make the switch?
There is alot more community support from Ubuntu, if you have a problem people don't expect you to know how to fix it yourself. They will guide you step by step most of the time to solve a problem.

Other business laptops are also welcome in /tpg/ (e.g. Dell Latitude/Precision, HP EliteBook/ZBook).

If you're looking for purchase advice, READ THE BUYERS GUIDE FIRST. Then post, stating budget and requirements (e.g. size and performance).
Don't buy anything OTHER THAN T, X AND W/P SERIES if you want the Real ThinkPad Experienceâ„¢
Recommended models:
T420 - 14", normal size
X220 - 12.5", lightweight
----
Why ThinkPad? (also applies to other business laptops)
>Used machines are plentiful and cheap.
>Excellent keyboards - tactile feel and quiet.
>Great durability: chassis uses a magnesium rollcage for structural integrity, with high quality plastic body panels.
>Utilitarian design: e.g. indicator LEDs, 7 row keyboard layout on older models.
>Docking stations that easily turns your laptop into a desktop.
>Easy to repair, upgrade and maintain thanks to readily available service manuals for every model. Spare parts are easy and cheap to obtain.
>The best trackpoint (that red thing in the middle of the keyboard). Great for those who type a lot or hate swiping their fingers all over a touchpad.
>Excellent GNU/Linux & *BSD support.

Let's have a Kodi thread.
Do you use kodi? I was using Sling TV before I bought my Kodi box
Why yes I am. Odroid c1+ with emmc module in living room. Just revived an old s4 I had lying around installed kodi and put it in the bedroom.
I just use popcorn time on my laptop
>>54106947
I use TVMC which is based off of Kodi that has a lot of repositories already installed for TV and movies.

Not him, but cheers. I don't use JS yet in my job, but I'm sure it'll be necessary at some point to progress
I just went to a JS conference.
This year, for the first time, all examples were in React, not a single thing in Angular or Ember except in workshops.
Is 2016 the year of React taking over by a significant amount?
>>54104853
did you have gay sex at the conference? I heard JS conference have huge gay orgies.
