What is the best option if I want to do anything in the world without fear of anyone (notwithstanding NSA, etc) finding out? I'm thinking along the lines of VPNs, proxie servers, etc. More specifically, along the lines of BTGuard or TorGuard...
(I fully understand that I'm a reckless fool. I would greatly appreciate the guidance.)

>without fear of anyone
using a VPN just displaces trust from your ISP to your VPN provider. Plenty of them say they're no-log operations, etc etc. How do you know they're telling the truth? You don't, you have to trust them.
you need to define more carefully what it is that you want to do, and who your adversary is.

Hi /g/, first time here, coming from some other boards.
I saw this meme which made me laugh. I'm a computer engineering student who does a lot of actual software development through oncampus job/internships. Are there any more of these?
There are more, this is only one I have
>>53598975
Thanks! Is there a name for this?
I just made pic related, in one my absolutely retarded classes I got points off for 'not enough comments' because I used descriptive variable names and lots of descriptive helper functions. TA literally wanted something like this. Our midterm literally had the sentence 'do not make helper functions, put everything in main'.
I literally don't know where I'd be without my internship and oncampus job. My curriculum is literally retarded

What do you use your keyboard macros for?
Bonus points if they're universal and not game/program specific.
I've been using AutoHotKey. The scripting language SUCKS but it's worth it in the end when you have useful scripts. I mostly use the numpad for it.
type out the clipboard
so that I can "paste" into remote terminals that don't support clipboards

Instead of having macros for my browser I just use mouse gestures. An upside down L is next tab/previous tab, up down up is reload, a backwards L is close tab, etc.
Emailed Stallman a couple days ago, posted the first response, but, was waiting for another, got it. Will post.

Are there any actually good detachables out there outside of the Surfacebook?
To me they are the best of both worlds if done right but I'm not willing to spend $2000 for a Surfacebook to get it done right. A lot of them make dumb design choices like one of the Asus ones where the keyboard dock needs to be charged separately and runs through Bluetooth.
I like the idea of using it as a laptop when I want type a lot and actually do more than just consume media but I like the idea of going from that to grabbing the tablet and using it on the couch and bed.
Any eBay ones I should look at? Looking at the Thinkpad Helix (1st gen) which a Ivy Bridge i7 and cosnidering this Toshiba Click 2 Pro which has a 13" and Haswell i7. A Helix can be had for about $400 used and the Click2 Pro is currently about $550 new.

most of them lack any real hardware in the keyboard and are super top-heavy. get a physical look at a store to see if that's the case.
>>53598159
A lot of the ones in my range aren't in stores or are older.
It's pretty amazing MS managed to make the tablet part of the Surfacebook 1.6 pounds. For example the Click 2 Pro's tablet is a bit over 2lbs and most of the others at 13" weigh around 2.2lbs.
I'll probably wait for 2nd gen Surfacebooks to come out or weight for Dell/HP/etc to try to clone them better.
>>53598099
1.6 lbs is way too heavy for a tablet. 0.75 lbs tops for a tablet IMO.

Want bang-for-buck top-tier China cell phone.
Live in US.
Currently on AT&T with iPhone 6, but can switch.
Looking at Elephone P9000, but no opinions yet.
What's best, /g/?

Why'd you want to switch from an iPhone 6?

Can't afford the monthly payments anymore, poorfag?
Should have bought chinkshit from the start

My son wants my 6. He can have it, he's tied into their ecosystem. So, I want a kick-ass (inexpensive) phone to replace it.
