I dropped my Galaxy s2 in the toilet.
I will probably have to get another one tomorrow if the heating doesn't dry it enough..
Removed batteries, cards, etc..
What do I get?

Sink it in rice for a couple of days without turning it on

I am applying for jobs atm and want to know that on Monday I will have a reliable device.
(as reliable as a phone can be that was bought in 2012 and have changed 4-5 times OSs like this one.).
Should I leave it on the heater for a while first and later put it in rice?
I have brown basmati here... hope it works..
Just dont try turn it on until its completely dried or else it could short circuit and become destroyed

Not sure what private trackers are all about?
The mission of /ptg/ is to promote the highest possible standards of tracker service by providing members with opportunities for professional development, by recognizing technical competence through examinations and by advancing the interests of its members.
Check out the wiki and update it yourself if you want more instead of complaining like a fucking faggot. https://wiki.installgentoo.com/index.php/Private_trackers

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.

Everytime I play a video or go to a tab that's playing a video/webm I get a black screen for a sec. This is not visible when I record my screen. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I've googled the problem but nothing has come out of it.
>>54051056
does the whole screen go blank or just the area where the video is playing?

I have a similiar problem when I open the Gnome3 system settings on my pc with an old Nvidia Card. It doesn't happen on my laptop with Intel Graphics. Maybe it's that?
Linus writes beautiful code. He has published some side projects that he wrote all on his own and the code is just wonderful. He also lives in the real world while still maintaining his open source ideals and supporting himself through his work.
RMS is basically a homeless loser who hasn't made any real contributions in the last 20 years. He is still super butthurt that Linux beet HURD (but hey, HURD just got basic sound support in 2016!) and basically tries to claim Linux because Linus used GCC and the GNU coreutils. He survives on the charity of others and speaking engagements where he spouts his insane, paranoid, philosophy. Basically he won't be happy until all the programmers are homeless hackers like him and all the companies are shut down. How people are supposed to support themselves and their families in that scenario aren't things he has to deal with because he is basically a permanent grad student. He does make some good points about privacy, but for him, there is no middle ground. Anything that may reduce your privacy even the slightest bit (like movie recommendations on Netflix) is evil according to him, and must be destroyed. In a lot of ways he show classic signs of mental splitting, which is a classic symptom of mental illness. To top it off, when he does write code, he does so in the style of the awful GNU style guide which is a crime against humanity IMHO.
So, in a nutshell:
He's a bird-fucking, self-absorbed, power hungry, toe jam eating pedophile that thinks everything should be free and everyone should be forced to share, who looks like he hasn't showered in years so as to create a static shield around his body to protect from aliens. He also created an OS without a kernel because he's basically Steve Jobs gone communist. Oh, and he calls himself doctor though he holds no PhD.

Though this may be true, Stallman has received many honorary doctorates.

Daily reminder that if you use Apple products you do not belong on this board. Sure you might argue that they're better and easier to use and simple and whatnot, but the bottom line is their walled garden ecosystem is against technologically inclined people who like to tinker around.

No argument here.

I realize this thread is bait but...
Do you take apart and tinker with every single technology related product you buy?
what is /g/'s opinion of field programmable gate arrays?
>>54049835
No one here knows what those are. But I'm sure they could advise you on some fine Linux distros.
>>54049835
They are cool, I worked with them. Too cool for /g/ tier neckbeards though.
>>54049835
they are the future. bitcoin mining has brought down their cost considerably
What does /g/ honestly think of Chromebooks?

Bought a Dell 11 inch to see what the fuss was about. Used it for a few days and stuck it back in it's box and in the cupboard. Useless. I just haven't got round to selling it yet as I'm in the process of renovating a flat and haven't had time.
Where did you learn to build your own rig /g/?
I don't know. I always liked to disassemble and then assemble back things, that naturally included computers too.

It's funny how people mostly compliment my watch because of the strap. Happened yesterday at the campus again.
Tudor Black Bay is 1000€ cheaper in germany than finland, any real risk from chrono24 verified sellers? Even in unworn condition sometimes.

It's loud and trendy. They sell Daniel Wellington on the same strap, don't they?
