>128 bit bus
>4GB GDDR5
For whvt pvrpose?
>>53749011
Because AMD realises that their niche is offering midrange cards for people who don't want to blow $1000 on a video card. I don't think AMD has released a card that defeated nvidia's performance in years.
Because it's a lowend GPU with Tonga PRO performance?
>128bit bus
Isn't that the reason why the GTX 960 4GB version sucks dicks? Because a 128bit bus isn't good enough to make full use of 4gb?
Hit me with some /g/ keks
How feasible is it to run an entirely terminal based OS in [the current year]?
Depends entirely on what you do
I'm doing it right now.
I've never had sex.

How did you enter the captcha then?
Not sure if this is /g/ or /mu/ but lets have an electric instrument thread, what is a decent electric piano?
I want a eletrical drum, too poor to afford one
Fuck an e-piano, I want this instead.
>>53746579
use rockband drums via usb for less than $30
>>53746513
use a midi controller 88 keys or no deal
?
install ECC
>>53745807
Why do you need it?
>>53745807
More data lines (72 bit vs 64 bit for non ECC), requires 1 extra memory chip per side for the error correction data, both increase complexity and cost of the memory module, the board (which requires the required data lines be physically present), and the CPU (which must support ECC ram on its memory controller, taking up die space).
Its also somewhat slower and noticeably more stressful on the memory controller.
lets pay respect to the gratest days in computing history; the days of windows 95 and AOL dial-up
I thought nothing of it when it was relevant

>/g/ telling people not to bother installing an antivirus
>meanwhile actual antiviruses like Avira have less of a system impact than Windows Defender
http://www.av-comparatives.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/avc_per_201510_en.pdf
But MSE is actually good.
You know what has even less of a system impact? Not bothering installing an antivirus
>AV-Comparatives
Show up some more paid off graphs please
Ok it's time. Tell us anon:
-Which operating system do you use?
-Why do you use it?
-What does it have that others don't based on your usage and personal experience?
C'mon now, don't be shy, anything goes
1. Arch Linux, planning to Install Gentoo though.
2. Nice customizability, little bloat, very simple.
3. What does it not have? Not sure.
>>53748322
>Which operating system do you use?
OSX master race
>Why do you use it?
It was preinstalled on my Macbook and after years with Lolbuntu and Windows, I wanted to give it a try. It works fucking great, never distracts me with shit, has all the software I want and looks damn nice. Not having to worry about maintenance compared to Windows is a joy too.
>What does it have that others don't based on your usage and personal experience?
Trackpad gestures. Unified UI. It generally doesn't draw attention to itself and just works. Doesn't need tweaks or long winded customisation and messing with settings.
>the cloud
>>53746833
what does it mean /g/?
>>53746833
>storing your files on someone else' computer in current year
>>53746928
But what do they mean? When you sit in a meeting and they start talking about the cloud, what is it?
Holy crapware, how is this even legal?
>>53745727
All of the Microsoft bloatware?
Or the Candy Crush app installed?
You agreed to the TOS. So it's legal. Besides, it's not mandatory so you can uninstall it. This is a non-issue.
>>53745727
>Candy Crush Soda Saga

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.

Did you ever fucked up pretty bad for clicking in the wrong place or typing in the wrong thing?
type g to get to google and dem gay porn links came up while dad was next to me, not a very good look lmao
Typed 4cham instead of chan. Got porn. Thankfully I was by me self per usual.
>>53744375
My worst misclick moment: Wanted to show my dad something on the internet.
Forgot I still had porn tabs saved for “later use” all the way to the left. (i.e. first tab was porn, and I was on tab 50 or so)
Accidentally scroll too far.
