Feeling like Ubuntu, do i install 16.04 now or wait for stable? Are there any cons?
>ubuntu
>>53550575
Just install the latest stable Ubuntu Gnome now, or 16.04 in April.
>>53550631
I don't mind unity, the point is to not have to upgrade once 16.04 releases, so if i install it now, it should just update normally once its stable?
Firefox is being dropped from F-Droid. No wonder..
So.. Is there a reasonable alternative for Firefox on PC or Android yet?
>2016
>firefox
Your choices are Chrome or Firefox. Everything else is crap. All the Firefox forks are crap. All the "lightweight" browsers are significantly lacking in features.

Lightning for android
I'm liking Brave for Windows
Opera for every other computer that I may or may not use.
Thinking of what license to use for some of my small libraries/projects, currently thinking of either Apache 2.0 or BSD license.
Apache 2.0 seems to state that if the source is changed this must be said by the one who has changed it , I am thinking of releasing a framework as well, so I guess Apache 2.0 will not be suitable in this case.
What do other /g/entooman use?
if it isn't important (i.e. no one will ever profit by using it) I go with MIT license.
Best case is that some indians start using my framework, but not anything major.
Latest GNU GPL for everything.
Will we live to see the day when media stops sucking Apple's dick?
How the fuck does this shit about Apple VS murrican government keep appearing everywhere?
It's just shady way of getting more publicity.
And Apple's whole market value is based on publicity.
But what can I do other than wait for mediafags to stop being gay?

Make your own technology review site and publish real reviews of crapple products like BILD does, while making sure you have other sources of revenue.
Apple products only gets positive reviews despite being utter shit because if blogger "reviewers" don't suck apple dick, they get no early review units and lose all their early review revenue to bloggers who promise to publish shill reviews.

I have noticed on TV whenever a laptop is shown it's usually a macbook.

because it's one of the most important legal cases at the moment and the verdict will set a legal precedent you dumb fuck

Anybody know any recommendations on how to get into DoSing, DDoSing, Password Cracking? Websites, People, and/or Forums? IF you have .onion links that would be greatly appreciated! Also looking for an OS I could run simultaneously with Windows. Tails, Kali,Gentoo, etc. Thank you!

>Password Cracking?
http://arstechnica.com/security/2013/03/how-i-became-a-password-cracker/
MD5, but still a fun start.
If serious, get Wifislax.
It's pretty good.
>>53549449
>Websites, People, and/or Forums?
I have some great tips for getting into people. Well, one tip. It's a good one though.
Long time lurker looking for advice:
Designing an app with some collaborators. We are having trouble agreeing on a name and are hoping to get some outside opinions.
Thanks for your time.

hey /g/, pretend like you want to order something illegal.
You have a safe way to pick the package up and a trusted source to buy from.
What kind of precautions would you take to make sure there is no way of tracing the transaction back to your computer?
onion routers, anonymous ip, things of that nature
discuss
Buy used laptop from granny off Craigslist, do transaction at local McDonald's, trash laptop afterward
Don't do drugs

A buddy is willing to sell me his iMac 27" for $600.
2011 model, I don't have all the specs though. Has an SSD and basic keyboard/mice (not magic). Seems to be in really good condition on the outside
Should I do it? I wanted to save up for a retina one but this seems too good to pass up. Plus I can use it as a second display when I upgrade later
Your buddy is ripping you off.
Sounds good to me OP.
Recently bought an MBP '10 with the i7 and the Nvidia card for sub $600
Mac's are pretty comfy desu
>>53548460
offer $400. if he accepts take it.
also, be aware there could be gay porn on this computer
Can my HDD just fucking die out of the blue in like 1 second? I was on sadpanda and it started clicking and beeping, screen froze and it won't turn on anymore(doesn't recognize HDD). I tried connecting an old one I had as storage unit and it works perfectly(won't start because no OS) so it's certainly the HDD.
Honestly it's kinda upsetting since I had stuff back from 2008 or so and I lost all my photos, anime and shit.
Am I fucked?
not yet.
it might just be a failed component on the circuit board.
if you can get hold of another drive of the same model and if you can swap the circuit boards, you might be able to read your porn again.

>Can my HDD just fucking die out of the blue in like 1 second?
Not necessarily. The drive had probably been failing for a while, you just don't notice until the drive actually dies.
Redundancy + backup = safe file storage
HEY MY /B/ITCHS get a total if three dubs in this thread and I'll show you what's in the super duper valt -tec suprise lunch box!!!

So why do so many corporations use C# their applications? I mean C# needs a fucking framework to even work, how is this acceptable?
Why not C++? It's pretty similar to C#, doesn't need a framework or anything, and programs can be cross compiled to other operating systems and architecture easily
The way I see it, C# doesn't have any benefits over C++, and companies even have to pay to download the IDE
>>53548126
Sepples is absolutely awful. C# is more of a java replacement than a sepples replacement.
C++ is significantly lower level in almost every way, older with less features and has a much smaller community
So definitely not the first choice for modern agile development
you'd know if you weren't a bedroom programmer idiot
I can code literally anything in C#. That framework you diss? Millions of lines of code that I don't have to.
C++ is for game programmers.
What are you working on /g/?
Last thread >>53558609
first for girls with penises
How do you document your programs /g/?
-Man pages?
--Automatic or manual?
-Texinfo/(La)TeX?
-Comments on C headers or functions?
-HTML (eww)
-Doxygen?
Working on my file server. Almost got the basis working. Next up is writing a simple web UI.
I understand this is not /wdg/, but is there something like Bootstrap that makes a website automagically scale for phone and desktop? I don't want to rely on JS btw.
What sort of internet connection do you have and what do you do with it?

what do you do with it?
>>53569463
Currently not much, had it installed a couple weeks ago. I initially thought I'd use my Mikrotik router although it's not geared for PPPoE + NAT at speeds higher than ±80Mbps.

They are glorified math majors

CS isn't even about programming
most CS students are complete shit at it desu
>>53568387
Most computer scientists don't know what a galois field is so they are definitely not math guys
