Before you compile and run this, take a guess at what it will do first.
>>53368328
uhhh. NULL?
segfault?
>>53368347
>>53368365
Now compile and run it to see what actually happens.
Which distro are you currently running and why did you choose to stick with it?
>>53368253
I use Fedora because dnf is best and it's bleeding edge.
Also backed by a real company and not a bunch of pedo faggoty freetards like rms
Arch, because of the AUR, bleeding edge, and KISS.
>>53368402
RMS is not a pedophile.
Is the thing about the new nvidia drivers causing severe problems/crashes a real thing or is it just propaganda from A.M.D. Shills?
Nope, nvidia drivers kill your gpu and brick your screen. Also they provide "stability updates" that disable overclocking.

I cant beleive i fell for the 970 memecard...i almost want my old saphire back..at least it didnt cause massive grapahical entities/frame shutteribg and shit in rendering stuff in games...why did i fall for the 3.5gb meme?
I need help building a pc and I'm a total computer noob. What's the best I can get for ~$1550 on ibuypower?
You just plug shit in and screw shit in.
How lazy can you fuckers be?
>>53367738
Fuck off
Intel celeron 32gb ram and nvidia quaddro
>How thew fuck do people still get viruses?
"BUT, THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING!"
Then, they should be made to know or they shouldn't be allowed near technology.
You have to have a license in order to drive. Why not the same for a computer or smartphone? Both are damned near integral for modern life, so why not?
>>53367555
You cant kill someone with a computer without being skilled
>>53367555
I don't know, I've gone out of my way to try to get viruses (on a virtual machine) and the closest I got was a pre-installed free trial of Norton Antivirus.
You can't run people over with a computer unless you try really hard.
>>53367607
Um, have you seen Fox News?
DOA?
>>53367358
dead until extension/addon support
>>53367378
They promised everything to be implemented "shortly after launch"
But development literally stalled, the new windows builds only add cosmic changes
They pushed it out to early.
Kinda like what your mom did with you
Let me start off with I DID NOTHING WRONG AND THEIR SYSTEM IS RANK. I was on omegle in a horse mask covered in nutella shirtless and all of a sudden i got banned cause they do it for free. So i deleted all my cookies and reset my ip successfully as in its a completely new ip. Yet somehow im still banned. How am i still kicked out. I just wanna meme in peace but the mods are bullies
Also yeah post your questions and hopefully me or others can help you.
>>53367296
Do you like maki?
>>53367472
anime is pretty alright. dunno that one tho. we should stay on topic before i get in trouble with more mods
>>53367296
some srsly at least allow me to understand how they could possibly know its me
what's the most multi-platform GUI library ?
Qt and it's not even close
>>53367001
>>53366993
but it's pretty expensive, no?
Do you do this?
Yes we all do.
>>53366855
>green for google.com and gstatic.com
No, I most certainly don't do this.

So, is this basically a shitty netbook for rich people?
How does it compare to the MacBook Air?
>>53366801
Netbooks don't have high resolution IPS screens.
>How does it compare to the MacBook Air?
It has a proper screen. The Air is for poor people who want to jump on the Apple bandwagon.
>>53366801
It has much higher resolution.
It's a lot more portable.
The CPU/GPU is as fast as the Air for the first 5 seconds then it throttles to half the performance of an Atom shortly after.
It definitely sucks because of how fucking bloated and inefficient OS X is. It's a very inconsistent experience in terms of UI responsiveness. People had a lot better time running Windows 10 on it than OS X lel Capitan

I need a discussion on block cipher modes of operation. Also, general crypto thread.
Right now, we have the following block cipher modes of operation available:
ECB - unsafe if encrypting data size > cipher block size
CBC - any type of feedback mode of operation should be considered unsafe or weakened, see [1]
PCBC - see CBC
CFB - see CBC
OFB - see CBC
CTR - decent, but lacks integrity and authentication
XTS - used only for disk encryption
*Authenticated encryption below*
OCB - ?
CCM - CTR w/ CBC-MAC, ?
CWC - ?
EAX - ?
GCM - decent, however there might exist attack vectors using weak keys, biclique attacks, etc.
SGCM - same as GCM except that weak keys are no longer a threat because GF(128) is not used
Modes such as (S)GCM and CTR use a nonce instead of an IV (which is used by CBC, etc.). The difference between a nonce and an IV, except for the fact that they are both required for the mode of operation to perform the initial encryption/decryption, is that the former only needs to be unique whereas the latter needs to be unique AND random or pseudo-random at least.
Indeed, if you use the same nonce for different encryption operations with GCM, then forgery becomes a possibility for the attacker. This is catastrophic. With an IV though, if it is not random enough, an attacker may be able to determine segments of the plaintext based on the ciphertext.
With that in mind, I would rather use a nonce-based mode of operation. Why ? Because I no longer have to trust my RNG not to be flawed. I just have to make sure the nonce is used once and strictly once. So finally, GCM seems to be a safe bet. It is widely adopted as a AE (Authenticated Encryption) mode of operation.
However, it is recommended by NIST so it may be badly flawed or NSA might have ways of weakening its security.
What do you guys think ? What's your preferred mode ?

Fuck, this looks impressive, but I'm 10/10 that no one here can contribute intelligently.
Good luck!

Is xfce lighter weight than lxde?
MS announced their retarded SQL Server for GNU+Linux.
https://blogs.microsoft.com/blog/2016/03/07/announcing-sql-server-on-linux/
>>53365511
Toy RDBMS for toy OS.
>>53365511
Awesome. I'm frickin' hyped now.
Whoa, that's actually very good
SQL server is fairly nice, but they fucking gouge you on pricing
