You weebs might get a kick out of this, my literal autist friend came up with a fairly clever solution to watching Japanese Laserdiscs with subtitles. He built his own teleprompter.

p neat desu
>>53525179
And this could be expanded to other media with no integrated subtitles, I guess
pretty neat, though personally, i'd just 'rip' the laserdiscs to a digital format, then mux in subtitles and use those instead

New thread since old one is dying a slow and painful death.
How long have existing IRC channels for different boards been a thing and who are they generally populated by?
I knew 4chan in general had an IRC but just trying stuff like /co/ or /g/ seems to yield results which users in, even if they're not saying much

Seems like everything would have to be upscaled. You may notice more flaws.
Gonna give Linux a try and decided to go for Linux Mint. However, I notice that there are several different ones (Cinnamon, MATE, kde, xfce). Could someone give a short summary on how they are different? What benefits and disadvantages do they have against each other?
Having trouble finding a job in CS. I have a degree, impressive side projects, aesthetically pleasing website and resume filled with buzzwords, but no work experience. Is it okay to lie about experience?

seriously though, what would I have to do to get a job working with moot at google?
I am a CompSci student at a top compsci school in the US. Should I focus on computer vision and computer graphics type stuff? Should I start stuffing objects up my ass?
My dream is to work with moot as partners and maybe even hold hands sometimes?
I am determined. I will do whatever it takes.
Welcome to /flt/, 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

what mouse should i get?
>dont care for extra buttons or shitty drivers
>cheap
>decent sensor
I bought a ranbom bamboo mouse - so much better than plastic shit.
>>53523981
The heck, now I kind of want to try one.
>>53524024
I find its much easier to clean and is far more resistant to corrosive nerd sweat. I mean to an extent a mouse is a mouse is a mouse, so having a nice surface to put your hand on is a major factor for me.
My one is smooth and glossy - none of this rubberised crap on gaymen mice.
>all this shit about getting more women into tech
Why? What's the point?
>>53535290
because nothing says "no to sexism" quite like a whole lot of blatant sexism
the only way they could make existing courses/groups/fields look like they were "for men" is by making ones for women
in reality now it's just
"for anyone", and
"for women"
>>53535290
>what's the point
Dunno, don't care.
There have been so many equality in field X campaigns and all fail in the end. This hype will be over in a few years and the SJW train will just go on somewhere else.
What is the downside to the Gigabyte Brix GB-BXBT-1900?
I get you need to add some memory and a hard disk, but after that why is it so cheap?
If all I just wanted to do was my taxes, watch netflix and shop online is this the ideal computer?
>>53523556
no, because to do that you don't need to buy new equipment at all. Any old Core 2 desktop from a thrift store will do that. And old used Thinkpad will do that. You could buy both for the cost of this thing. The only reason you want this is because tiny things are really trendy right now. You're being a fashion victim, and just aren't recognizing it because the useless gadget you're lusting after doesn't have an Apple logo on it.

You can have an android box *with* RAM for ~$30 or so, or new Atom PC for ~$100-150 (windows license included).
