If hillary clinton can set up her own email server why am I not allowed to by my ISP?
You already know the answer.
Only your wallet is stopping you.

Depends on your contract...
On mine it says no servers etc.
Hey guys. I recently installed Ubuntu, just to get my feet wet into Linux.
Any tips on how to customize the GUI, media players, make it a more coding friendly environment (Java, SQL, C# mainly), necessary things to install to make it a good workstation?
>inb4 install Gentoo, why does Jave give you suicidal tendencies
>media players
>video
mpv and vlc
>>55473897
VLC is a necessity lol
For media players I don't need anything facy, just something that is more efficient rather than bloated with bells and whistles
Except sound graphs. It soothes my souls lol

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
Happened to me on my phone, no fucking idea how it got in there. Luckily he crawled back in away from the screen...
Try blowing some air into the screen or some shit. If your warranty is over just open that shit up.

I fell for the bluetooth speakers meme
-no stereo separation; sounds really weird
-can't pair speakers; JBL could pair their bluetooth speakers but only on phones
-bluetooth connection is unreliable and sometimes stutters
>>55473664
>no stereo separation
What the fuck were you expecting, any wired speaker that small will be almost mono
>cant pair speakers
Stop being retarded Bluetooth is pairing is as easy as it gets
>Bluetooth connection is unreliable
?
>buying normie commercial garbage
>>55473705
Pairing as in, pairing two speakers for stereo separation.
Bluetooth doesn't seem reliable for sustained throughput.
Is the Samsung 950 pro a meme?
I have a MSI Z97 G45 and I'm considering buying one of those
>>55473647
Do you need it?
It all depends on what you use your computer for. I work with thousands of small files and it was a nice speed improvement for me. For regular desktop use it won't be any better than a sata ssd.
>>55473647
It's a meme unless you're doing video editing or database work.
Are there any alternatives to OGYouTube? It always resets after a few minutes of background streaming or screen off steaming. I heard about NewPipe, is that any good?
>>55473588
NewPipe is my choice, but it has it's limitations because it protects your privacy by only retrieving the video content. So you can't see the comments, you can't search for channels, etc. It has plenty of comfy features tho, just like OGYouTube. If you want privacy and the ability to download/play in the background then NewPipe is the way to go. Only problem I have is that if you start a video (not in background mode) and go to another app temporarily, when you come back the video restarts at the beginning
>>55473588
WebTube is an open source app with standard YouTube UI.
>>55473698
NewPipe is goat.
It can be buggy sometimes, but otherwise it's pretty good.
Are nvidia drivers becoming the new AMD?
I've had a 580 for a few years, and at some point the drivers started constantly crashing, usually when just doing desktop shit under no stress. Screen would go black, fans would speed up, and then back to normal. If I was playing a game it could start showing spooky green flickering on the screen, and if I didn't alt-tab out fast enough, it would take the entire system down with it. Underclocking and/or overvolting the card fixed crashing in games, but it still happened in the desktop environment just as frequently.
A while ago while having dark souls 3 problems, I reverted back to some driver version from 2013, and the problems stopped. Just like that. What the fuck, nvidia. Do they purposely cuck older cards in driver updates so I'll buy a new one? Anyone else have this exact issue?
>>55473583
>just know finding this out
>>55473583
well if you had enough money for the 580 then wait on the 490 because nvidia will never fix these issues unless people stop buying from them
>>55474819
Aren't the new amd's supposed to be full memecards?

does this lust for more memory ever stop?
what will happen when computers have more memory than disk space?
>>55473527
suspend will replace shutdown most likely and everything will run on volatile memory. maybe computers will come with back-up batteries too
>>55473527
That's never going to happen.

970 OWNERS ON SUICIDE WATCH
Is that a DX12 game? It runs great on the 480.
>LOOK A NEW CARD CAN BEAT AN OLD CARD LE SUICIDE WATCH BTFO XD

If they didn't end their worthless existence after finding out they got cucked by 3.5, it won't happen now. The human mind has ways of coping.
What is the best media player? I currently have pic related, but I want something better.
>>55473446
I like iTunes.
>>55473446
VLC is actually pretty good now for your phillypeeno cartoons
I'm thinking of upgrading to Windows 10. Now is there anyway to really get it to not spy on me, or is it just an inevitability
Gentoo
>>55473444
you cannot trust windows anymore with your data privacy it's sad
it's so saddening for me that my motherboard does not support VT-d and I cannot comfortably switch to Linux and isolate windows inside VM without network access
>>55473444
get the windows 10 enterprise edition, it doesnt have the trash normal version comes with apparently. God speed Anon.
