Best studio monitors under $500?
>/g/
>knowing shit about audio
lol
>>52699903
You do not own a studio, stop being a stupid cunt and run some good quality car audio 6.5" splits in your own MDF box.
Enjoy 99% the same SQ with the same or more volume for $200 or less.
Don't take anyone's opinion on this... Go to your local music store if you live in a big city. They will have a room full of monitors. You can give them a CD with familiar tunes and listen to all of them.
You have to try before you buy with speakers. At least buy used as a starting set

Why do you want to use Linux?
What's stopping you from using Linux full time?
If you already use Linux full time what was the last thing you needed to sort out before you changed over permanently?
What were your biggest gripes with your last non Linux OS that prompted the change over?

I have 2 laptops and a desktop. I only have Windows on my desktop, both my laptops exclusively run linux. I only use Windows on my desktop to play games occasionally, maybe a couple days a month or so. I basically treat my desktop PC with Windows installed on it like a game console.
What is the worst software you have ever had to use for school/work?

I pretty much hated Matlab when I first had to use it.

i read that the software used to program motorola radios is so ancient that most radio shops have a computer from the 1980's in the back just to get those working
how bad do you fail as a company to not even update a core piece of your product 30 years after the fact?

>Mounting efivarfs read/write by default can lead to accidental deletion of the EFI variables. It was already reported on Arch Linux forums, that running 'rm -rf' over a directory structure with mounted efivarfs did actually "hard-brick" some MSI notebook.
Lennart, being the massive faggot he is, thinks it's a non-issue and comparable to having /dev/sda access, despite the fact that wiping /dev/sda won't render your motherboard completely inoperable.

Once again systemd confirmed for more Unix than Unix.

What part of this bug report claims systemd is bricking laptops and not users being careless?

>>Mounting efivarfs read/write by default can lead to accidental deletion of the EFI variables.
That would be true however the user mounted efivarfs rw. Has nothing to do with systemd.

Ok, let's settle this once and for all,
will VR be a gimmick like 3D and motion control were or will it truly change the market?
I personally think it will go down the same road as 3D but it wouldn't be the first time I was wrong.
what ya thinking, /g/ents?
>>52699009
It depends on technical implementation.
And gyros are already used in a lot of applications (most importantly navigation), which is why almost every smartphone now comes with 'em.

>I personally think it will go down the same road as 3D
Most animals and humans have significant amounts of 3D sensors and processing power.
I don't expect animals to adapt VR too soon, though.
