Did I fall for the meme?
From the thumbnail I though it was a hotwheels race track.

If it looks stupid, but works, it isn't stupid.
Some fat neckbeard was handing this around at my college. If I go, what am I in for /g/?
Why don't you go and report back?
I mean do you make a "what am I in for" thread before wiping your ass too?
arguments about renaming it the GNU/Linux Club
if someone hung these flyers up at my university i would go out of my way to rip all of them down
Fuck. I've been using VLC forever. Why do I keep torturing myself like this? The interface really isn't that great, and it's aggravating to customize it because there's too many options spread out everywhere.

Really?
And the damn thing is modal!
HELP
Am I out of line? No one else sometimes hates VLC for some reason?

I think I got a pretty great deal. What should I do with it? I haven't even powered it on yet.
>>53546522
Sell it; the power required to run that thing for a year would help pay for something faster and cheaper to run.
>>53546549
there's no way I plan on running this thing for any amount of time. I mainly grabbed it as something like a lab machine, for me to teach myself some Sysadmin stuff on my own.
Haven't spent a good amount of time really working in Server 2k8.

Ok /g/, it's time to end all "what's the best OS" debate. We will design our own kernel. We will target x86-64 architecture.
1) What programming language should we use?
2) What should be in the kernel, and what should be in userspace?
3) What should be the recommended filesystem?
4) Bonus: name it.
Backward compatibility, and compatibility with [muh favourite software] is not the question. Imagine, if no software exists except the bare minimum to develop the desired OS, and x86-64 is brand new, nothing have been cross-compiled to it.
I'll start on the logo first
>>53545661
Do the thing in rust, that would really make a difference.

Why isn't /g/ using this ?. Explain yourselves or you lose.
But I am!
If you want 4.5 kernel, install sid.
because my OS is my hat.
Yes, you know which one I'm talking about.

I'm almost 24 and I have no work experience, just student projects and a couple of my own projects I did in free time (mostly everything in C++). I realize I'm pretty fucked compared to my peers with over a year of experience, but I don't wanna be a NEET when I finish school. I'm an alright programmer, but I'm a failure at life.
How should I go around looking for a job? I'm reading Cracking the Coding Interview and it had some good tips so far. Most companies in my city offer a job in C# or Java, that I know some basics of both of them, should I even try to apply for that or is it a waste of their time? Are employers willing to let me learn some stuff as I go along or do I have to have a good grasp of it already? Or maybe I should just lower my standards and aim for any job opportunity, even an unpaid practice?
Also, what do they mean when they list "good knowledge of .NET" in the requirements?

I know where to find job offers, that's not the point of this thread. I don't even live in the US m8.

Feel sorry for you then, anon. Idk, I just searched on jobs site and went to interviews.
>Google has doubled its “jackpot” for any hacker who can crack one of its Chromebooks. The top prize now stands at $100,000 after no one managed to successfully hack the laptops the last round.
>The winner will have to compromise a Chromebook or Chromebox in guest mode with device persistence. In other words, to grab the reward, a hacker must crack a Chromebook while it is in a locked-down state and it should remain hacked after a reboot.

I'd buy a $5 wrench and keep the $99995 left.

sounds like they don't trust their own system,
$100,000 is peanuts to google
Do videogames have to be free as in freedom like normal software or do they count as art?
>inb4 videogames aren't art
Video games suck.
Releasing video games as free and open source is pretty much inadvisable unless you hate money.
Even if you do the sane thing and license the framework/engine as GPL while keeping your game assets copyrighted/creative commons/whatever, nobody is going to use it because it was built for your specific game.
If you were to release the whole thing as free software, assets and all, there's nothing stopping Pajeet from recompiling your game and putting it on the play store himself.
A lot of games from GOG have GPLv2 licenses
