Just installed XP on an old computer with 1 GB of ram
>Boots almost as fast from HDD as Windows 7/8/10 boots from SSD
>Windows update fast as fuck
>Everything loads instantly
>Uses barely 200 MB of ram
It just seems so... clean. How did Microsoft fuck up so badly? Does any Windows developer actually even understand what the fuck they are doing?
Install Gentoo for faster boottimes and less ram

What do the attached anime images have to do with the content of your posts. anon?
What's the dress code for software engineering interviews? Can you get away with a polo or do you need to buy a suit...
I prefer to use jeans and a shirt with a tie and jacket
>>53910118
I usually wear a dress shirt and dress pants. Makes you look professional without wearing a suit and looking completely unfit for the job.
I usually just wear a simple dress, opaque tights, plain flats, minimal makeup, hair down and non-flashy earrings+necklace.

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 /fg/lt/, or as I've recently taken to calling it, /fg+lt/. 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.
IRC connection details:
Server: chat.freenode.net:6667 (no SSL, 6697 for SSL)
Channel: #flt
If you don't have an IRC client (which you should), go to https://webchat.freenode.net/ to join the webchat.
Do not tick "auth to services" (as you probably don't have a freenode account), choose a nickname, and type "#flt" as the channel.
Google captcha, click "connect", all that.

I asked this right as the thread died :(
When scanning a host with nmap, which is better/more secure, closed or filtered?

I guess you wouldn't have support for the product if you compiled/forked it.
Hey /g/,
I'm looking to build a gaming computer and I was looking to get some opinions on my build from you guys. Thanks in advance.
CPU: Intel Core i5-4690 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-U12S 55.0 CFM CPU Cooler
Motherboard: MSI Z97-GAMING 5 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard

Storage: Crucial BX100 250GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
Storage: Western Digital BLACK SERIES 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 4GB Video Card
Case: Corsair 500R White ATX Mid Tower Case
Power Supply: Antec High Current Gamer 620W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply
Optical Drive: LG WH14NS40 Blu-Ray/DVD/CD Writer
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 Home OEM (64-bit)
No k CPU but z97 board. You might want to fix that to save money by either going to a cheaper chipset or get a 4690k IR something. Also I wouldn't recommend getting a 970 right now with the next gen coming out in about 2 months. I would check local Craigslist or something and try to find a cheaper decent card.
>>53906256
thanks for your input anon
I've been gaming from a similar build. K CPU. It's pretty good. Nvidia cards work well with Linux drivers if you ever want to dual boot.
>For years, Google has had tools to test the lag in Android and Chrome OS devices, letting it know when bad hardware or sloppy software is causing delays in touch input or voice commands. Wish you could check that lag yourself? As of now, you can: Google has posted the source code for WALT, its latency timer. While you'll need to build some Arduino-based hardware to perform the tests, Google promises that the whole thing will cost you less than $50. You won't need to go all-out and recreate the company's TouchBot, then. True, this will mostly be useful to developers who need to check their code, but it could come in handy if you've ever wanted to prove that a phone was unacceptably sluggish.

Let me spare you the trouble. If you're running android, yeah it lags.

X11 WORKS ON BASH FOR WINDOWS
LINUX CONFIRMED DEAD AND BANKRUPT
Bro Linux was/is already dead and irrelevant.
KDE can already run on Windows.
does this mean we can run htop on Windows?
Find a better IDE.
>pro tip
>you can't
vim
VS Code is an IDE?
The full Visual Studio.
ITT: simple things Windows simply can't do.
I'll start: create a file with a dot prefix.
>create a file with a dot prefix
And why?
Retard
but it will soon enough when they port in all of Ubuntu and bash into an already bloated operating system cause a few retards whined about rebooting
