>tfw using opensuse and not the abomination that is arch
If anything arch us the perfect newb distro.
>throws you into the deep end, learn linux or die
>very few included software packages, forced to learn different desktop environments and programs instead of just using whatever the distro/OS gives you
>learn the command line so you can appreciate it even in distros that try to hide it
I'm not saying everyone should use arch for their main distro. But it is great on that it forces you to do research and learn critical knowledge about your system and Linux. I think everyone should install arch once, even if they plan to use something else as their main desktop like Fedora or whatever

Mentality is arguable for IT/CS people but for everyone else this won't last too long.

Ok /g/ I know most of you are just NEETs, but for the successful college students here, let's have an internship general.
Where are you working this summer or preparing to intern soon? Im gonna be applying for internships through my school for the fall term and looking to maximize chances for a big 4 internship, learning algos and working on some projects right now

Fucked up on interview to work at my school on a project for 6+ months. . .
So I guess I'm gonna try to find something in the next town over (hour and a half drive one way.)
If anyone knows the best site to search, I would be appreciative. My schools search is really shallow and dead.

good luck anon. im sure with some kickass projects you'll get in no problem.
i interned at some companies here cause there aren't big companies in my city. im approaching graduation (have 7 more classes until i m finished) so it doesnt make sense for me to go for another internship. i never applied for the big names like google and microsoft cause that would require me to relocate to another city, which i cannot do because i have to take care of my frail mother. in hindsight i should've applied just to see if i would even be considered competitive there.
nonetheless, the companies i interned at really treated me well and im looking to them for a job after i graduate. really nice work environment (some politics invovled, but whats a workplace without politics?), free snacks, low stress, and easily accessed from the train.
Sell us your million dollar app idea.
Nigga is that a rolodex.
w-why is there a monkey sitting with us?

an app that lets you send photos to friends and such that they can only see for a couple seconds. Then the photo disappears forever.
I just unearthed my old PS2 but all my games were tragic flood victims. I still have a network adapter but my IDE hard drives are dead and I can't find any being sold anymore.
What do?
Just emulate them you dip.
>>53620154
Who cares you're not going to play those games again.
>>53620154
Get a SATA adapter.
Buy a new IDE HDD.
>>53620189
PS2 emulation is horrible.
The portable ThinkPad is back with a new phone that has macfag autists yelling to their moms.
This is the BlackBerry Priv, the name sounds awful but the phone is incredible. It has that pop out keyboard that was not made for 12 year old women.
The priv also has a high resolution touchscreen made just for your Anime viewig.
The Blackberry Priv is everything good about a ThinkPad put into a current year tier Phone.
>>53620131
Its like everything you liked about your ThinkPad just with more edgyness and portability.
>>53620131
why is a physical keyboard necessary?

My Nvidia gtx 970 doesn't fucking work. Fuck anybody who recommended it to me. Recommendations for a graphics card that actually functions? Preferable one that doesn't have a 40% chance not to work?

why does /g/ throw a tantrum when they get a DOA product, regardless of brand? you have a warrantee
Also, more stupid question. I turned off windows automatically installing drivers, but it's doing it anyway. Why?

what was so awful about this thing again?
>>53618992
battery and roprietary software
>>53618992
Kinda unremarkable. Fat. Though design is the smallest issue with it, wasn't this piece of shit overpriced?
Looks to me like the OS seems to be the problem.
Why are you using a linux distribution?
Are you happy or is it just because you hate windows or osx?
>>53618616
Because I wanted good strong encryption. And I actually really enjoy working with Ubuntu more than Windows
Because Windows 7 runs like shit on my 11 years old laptop, and Windows XP is a fucking piece of shit.
>>53618616
Sorry OP, but there is no such thing like a "linux distribution". Linux is just a kernel, added the GNU operating system.
Are you ready for VR /g/?
I will be once they add touching and smelling
i.e. never
No and I will never ever put this shit on my head.
Got an HTC Vive on the way. Upgraded to GTX-970. Installed Steam. SteamVR doesn't run on Debian Wheezy. Fuck.
