does /g/ has a blog?
What do you write on it?
Thinking about making one for muh arduino projects, just to keep kind of motivated. Is this a gewd idea?
Just programming stuff, stuff useful for people using my libraries. My last blog was my worst, in a brilliant display of reverse experience.
I plan to get a touch political or philosophical when I get a job, before then having that shit on my website is hindering not helping.
BTW, implement bbcode and have code. Patorjk bbcode is what I use, needed only a little tweaking for quotes.

How did you start? Have you just made it and started writing shit on it?
Did you promote it in any way?

I'm learning c++, whats the best compiler for windoze?
>>53533358
mingw-w64 if you use c++11
Gcc or msvc
Just go pirate visual studio enterprise

Could use your help here, /g/.
I'm getting a buffer overflow, and it's coming from somewhere within this block of code. I've been trying to weed it out for the last 6 hours with no luck.
Any thoughts?
Noone?
>>53532593
.0001% of /g/ knows assembly.
...step through it?
Let's take a moment to appreciate open source software
It's amazing, there is so much software built entirely on the goodwill of people, anyone can download, share, modify and use that software for free, without any restriction.
The best part is, it's all free.
>>53532478
There's so much quality software, ffmpeg, VLC, Firefox, and god knows what and FOSS people are giving it away all for free, not asking for anything in return.
All of those statements are true.
But my opinion is that most of the free software I've used has been barely functional shit that I immediately ditched for commercial software developed by a team that understands how to make interfaces that make sense to more than just one person.
The only, ONLY free software that hasn't been total shit is GlovePIE, and to even get to the download for that, you had to get through 3 pages promising that you:
> weren't a Zionist Jew (software won't work if your pc locale was Jewish)
> acknowledged that using your computer was actively destroying the planet
> promised to only download and use his software if you were running off of nuclear power plants
Total nut. But I was able to make some dank macros and voice commands in games with it.

Please avoid using the term “open” or “open source” as a substitute for “free software.” Those terms refer to a different set of views based on different values. The free software movement campaigns for your freedom in your computing, as a matter of justice. The open source non-movement does not campaign for anything in this way.
When referring to the open source views, it's correct to use that name, but please do not use that term when talking about us, our software, or our views—that leads people to suppose our views are similar to theirs.

Why aren't you using a Pentium 4?
because it sucks and is slow as hell
Pentium 4 with HT is fine for modern applications. They run Windows 7 like champs. The real bottleneck is with that first generation DDR RAM...
Video games :^)
So external gpus will be a thing relatively soon
Pic related is just an example, probably will be a higher end of prices since it's Memezer
Personally I think using them as a docking station for a laptop with just built in graphics and a nice processor/everything else is the GOAT setup of the future
What do you think /g/
Cool or meme?
This forwards Windows because these gpu are for Windows games, cannot support it
>>53532057
Kneel before Zod!
Fuckin expensive is the problem. Can't safely OC with a laptop either. If you're talking future, then sure cpu's could theoretically evolve to where OC isn't needed. But desktops will remain better for serious gaming. It won't make sense until it's cheap.

Fuck gentoo, fuck linux, fuck/g/, and fuck computers. No amount tech literacy can ruin generations of awful programming, nothing will ever just work anymore.

Mozilla announces Servo, a rust based web browser. Finally a browser that wont be complete shit.

I wonder how many times it'll be delayed.
>>53531931
Hopefully before the absolute integration and death of Firefox at hands of the botnet
does it have a privilege check feature?
Is this fix-me-stick worth it? My shit for brains kids keep downloading games, and viruses and shit and its slowing down my computer? How the fuck do I get rid of all these fucking Viruses?!?!?!?!?1

Just use malware bytes it's the best and if you get premium it'd be a plus bcuz it'll constantly jeep scanning

I don't know why I have a phone. Use it for two factor but that's about it.
Hi. I'm visiting Bremen, Germany. Was wondering is there a place/website I could buy PC parts cheaper?
>Europe
>cheap pc parts
wew laddy
>>53531500
That's cool and all, but can I get in Germany cheaper PC parts than, say, in UK?
>>53531462
Cheaper? In Germany? Are you fucking nuts?
