I can't believe how powerful this computer is. I bought it in mid 2012 and it still just werks
Is it the SSD?
>>53554120
yeah
Macs age VERY well. I've used macs made before 2009 that are still amazingly comfy to use. Windows is starting to get better though. Windows 7 especially made it so old hardware stays relevant.
Probably the gimped meme OS you're using
Woman are "underrepresented" in STEM because the narrative of, say, engineering doesn't emphasize how much it contributes to the society. But strong, independent wymenz need the social aspect to be interested in STEM.
Mary Wells, Chair of the Ontario Network of Women in Engineering, identified amongst other the following:
>Some examples of our existing NEGATIVE narrative include:
>Engineers are geeks
>Engineers are men
>Engineers have no fashion sense
>Engineers are smart
>Engineers can fix almost anything
>Engineers are good at math
http://techcrunch.com/2016/03/15/engineers-change-our-world/
To make STEM more appealing to women, we need to make it more girly and normie. Being good at math or emphasizing solutions over fashion sense is so last century and smells of patriarchy and rape culture anyway.
Sorry you smelly /g/eeks, your time is over. Flowers and beauty will now rule the STEM departments.
As long as we have capitalism and private ownership we are okay. Corporations want results, sometimes they hire the token female but that's it

Their "rivalry" wasn't really interesting.

They were too busy with their own problems to even care about each other.
Am I the only one that sees this?
What's the best one click solution for removing most of the Windows 10 telemetry these days?
>>53553744
Format windows drive from a live cd or something? Windows 10 is really persistent about homing back to Microsoft servers. There might not be a way to block all telemetry.
>>53553823
Or disconnect from the Internet.

why don't they just package it as a DE/gtk-theme, then?
DEs are for normies, so they have to package it in a normie-friendly format. How hard is that to grasp?
>>53553247
>DEs

Youtube videos not playing because of adblock.
Anyone else having this issue?
ublock origin was working fine up until a few weeks ago and a lot of videos will either not load at all or show a black screen with audio.
>>53552899
See if YouTube videos play when you disable all add-ons.
>>53552899
Update filter lists.
I have no problems.

That shit's a UMPC, not a mobile phone. Seriously, as a phone that thing would be an absolute brick.
What is /g/'s opinion of the Alienware Steam Machine? Is it worth buying one? Is it more efficient than a custom-built computer? I don't plan on getting a Steam Machine, but people talk about them a lot.
Don't leave me hanging, /g/.
fuck off, steam machine is total absolute fucking shit. anyone even considering buying one is probably autistic
literally prebuilt with linux
Can we talk backups/file syncing /g/?
>Unison
+ CLI and TUI
+ Full control
+ Crossplatform
- No merge
- Slow indexing
>Syncthing
+ Continuous sync
+ SSL/TLS if required
- Early development stage
- Resource hog on slow machines
>Dropbox/Google Drive/Skydrive/Whateverbotnetdrive
+Fast
+Compatible
- Nonfree non-secure proprietary closed source botnet blahblah
- Finite storage space
>Rsync / diff | cp / ...
Not automated, not cross-platform
>Git annex
>Gut
???
What do you use /g/? I tried unison which is nice but really slow on windows. Syncthing is cool too but not very minimal and too heavy for the rPi imo.
Anyone tried git-annex?
btrfs send/receive
I use Seafile on my raspi
+Dropbox-like, open sauce
-my server instalation is unstable
I use Dropbox for work/university related stuff + some personal things like photos, books, etc. I also have an external hard drive which I use exclusively for backup purposes, I update it once a month or so.
Am I doing it wrong?
is arch a meme distro
>install with no issue

Honestly this has to be a meme I was able to fix this but there is no mention of this on the forum. please tell why this is a thing
