Hey /g/ I was told this is more of a question for you guys
I know a dude who said he will sell his old setup to me for $500, everything looks pretty damn good, at he takes care of his tech I can't find a scratch, blemish or even dust on any of it
Two HS80M monitors
HS8S 8" Subwoofer
Dr Pro Studio Monitor Stands
Auralex Pads
Would that be worth 500 bucks? or should I ask him to go to 4
I don't make music, just love listening to it, would the setup be wasted on me? Or is it even a good deal?
Thanks

i currently own a pro-ject dac for 100€ and a denon amp.
is the Aune T1 MK2 a viable upgrade since i'm about to rma the pro-ject dac due to noise shielding problems?

$500 bucks for all of those is definitely pretty cheap. If you want to negotiate an even lower price, you can, but $500 is a steal.

Why is it legal for mircosoft to embed malware into their programs? I mean did suddenly people who create virus's and other forms of malicious software get a pass and become respectable members of the community?
I guess that would explain those ad's saying download this free tool.

What are the constraints of shrinking silicon?
What was stopping foundries from pumping out 14nm chips in 2010? Was it the lithography? Is there some sort of dependence on earlier slightly larger silicon in order to create newer slightly smaller nodes?
Why does silicon only get ~30% smaller every year? What's preventing them from just saying "Oh shit, transistors are gonna be 200% smaller in a few years. Let's just do what we'd have then, except now!"?
>>52644538
You are retarded. If you are actually old enough to post here and post such dumb questions then that is the only conclusion I have for you.
>>52644538
shrinking means finding new ways of making transistors smaller. the reason this is hard is that electricity can travel through material at a very small scale, they call it leaking.
so basically they have to find new materials that don't leak as bad or think of new ways to make transistors like 3d transistors.
>>52644538
Why don't scientists just come out with high net output nuclear fusion power? Like they know how to do it in theory, so why don't they just make it today instead of years from now?
The answer is that absolutely enormous R&D is done in stages.
What if all of /g/ got together and made a network based super computer.
Think about it, we could use this network to preform complex tasks in a matter of seconds.
We could allow anons to submit computation requests and then a council of /g/ods who get together would pass judgment on what requests gets filled and what get ignored.
any ideas?
The staggering and timing would be horrible.
Think of the most complex task you need to do right now and see if your current machine cannot handle it.
Now that, is a battlestation. I'd totally knock up my girlfriends in a cutty spot like that.
Well , gentlemen , i want to ask you if my gpu its actually good (AMD radeon 6700 series). Any tips?
>>>/wsr/
Sorry man, /g/ isn't tech support.
>>52644428
that depends on what you use it for and what you want out of it. If you older games at higher settings and newer games at lower(basically at near minimum) setting and you're okay with that, its fine. If you want to play Far cry primal or "insert newer AAA game here" at higher settings and 1080p its junk.
your next quest will be, "well if its bad what should I get?"

My HP Pavilion laptop is having some problems. I got it 4-5 years ago, and recently updated it to Windows 10. Everything was going okay, despite it running a little slower, then, suddenly, it pretty much died. It told me I had a FAT file system error, and wouldn't turn on for a few days. Now, it will do some automatic system repair, but it only loads up to a black screen. All of this would be fine, but I forgot to backup my files, including my reaction folder. So, is there any way to fix it or at least extract my data? Thank
(pic unrelated)
>>52644312
You need to replace your harddrive eitherway(I think, don't quote me on this), but if you're lucky, you'll be able to retrieve the files if you use a USB to sata 2.5" cable on the near dead old HDD.
>>52644818
This, OP you better do this quick.
If you can't start up the disk then you deserve it for not backing up your files.

Huh.
Guess he really wasn't the key to their success.
Either that or he left them a really baller long-term road map.
>>52644229
im pretty sure he aint dead
same thing about paul walker and tupac. im pretty sure they aint dead, they just living on an island right now or they signed papers to explore other planets in the solar system. since they know that they are risking their lives, nasa (or whatever space agency thats hosting this service) wants to keep it low key so that in case they do fail, their company's rep isn't tarnished. so they made up a story for their loved ones to share on facebook and report to the news.

Dear /g
Today i come to you for help.
A friend of mine <insert sob story that tugs the heart strings and makes you want to help me> and so she asked me to resurrect her old desktop.
She does not care about salvaging data she just wants it to work.
I hit up the HP web site and they still carry the drivers for it (thank the computer gods).
Anyhow, all i am missing is a windows xp iso. Can anyone help me. I used to have an iso that was stollen from microsofts own training labs. It was never hacked or any of that shit. It would always update and never wanted...

If only there was a place for pirating stuff. You know like a bay for pirates. I know! You could call it the pirate bay. People would post links to files that contain information on how to download stuff for free that normally costs money. You could download stuff so fast they would call it a torrent. So things like operating systems that have been out for years would have tons of people trying to circumvent the copy protections. So surely an OS that's five generations old would have a hundred ways of...

Hey /g/, does anyone know of any alternatives to skype that protects/secures its users from prying government eyes?
Preferably a software with video calling that is both compatible with mobile and desktop.
Pls halp.
>>52643936
Literally this. I need Skype conference calls that we have between my cousin, a friend, and I. It's literally spyware, if there were any alternatives I would definitely try.
