Is delidding worth the risk?
Yeah if you can afford to replace it and won't be upset at all if it breaks.
I guess after a few years yeah.
I redo thermal paste on laptops all the time, this is just one more step to do. Dont worry the thing is actually pretty robust, just be careful.
I read somewhere that you Vishera chips are soldered to the lid and its not worth the effort to delid and repaste them, does anyone know if that's true? I can't seem to find a solid answer

return 0;
return(0);
Which one, /g/? Is return a function?
>>52497467
Don't use brackets.
If its clear without them and they aren't necessary, then why use them?
>>52497467
>return
>>52497467
The first. Return isn't a function.
have both
macbook for daily use
thinkpad for lugging around when travelling cos that shit won't break. have arch linux installed and an extended battery and it's the shit.
Each has their own merits, and it really depends on what you're doing, and your circumstance, as to which is better.
There is no "better" device.

What's the best router I can get for around $100 or less? Preferably one that supports DD-WRT, OpenWRT, and/or Tomato.
Literally god tier

I got an RT-68 for $110 or so a while back. Best router ever with Asuswrt-Merlin.
Hey /g/, is there any computer case on the market which fulfils this criteria?
- all HDDs have vibration blockers, optimally some heavy duty silicone/rubber grommets
- take at least six HDD slots, more is better.
- space for an SSD on top of those (even if it just means tying it to the backplate)
- at least two 5.25 slots, optimally three
- 14cm fan slots only, with one (or two) of them directly blowing on the HDDs.
- USB3 front panel
All the cases I see fail to match all these. The closest I have are the Antec P183, and the Define R5.
I've checked all the manufacturer sites I can think of, but haven't found anything that matches all of those criteria. I've moved from my P183 to a Define R5, but honestly think of moving back to the P183 because the Define R5 sucks - the hdd grommets don't block fuck all noise (I had to install the ones from the P183 in them), and the fan controller melted itself. Sure the P183 has only 12cm fans, but I could just bite the bullet and put some Noctuas there and get a fully silent build (silent enough so the HDDs make more noise than anything else).
Are there any other similar cases that I'm not aware of?

Why do you want hard drives in 2016? Just use SSDs.

>Why do you want hard drives in 2016? Just use SSDs.
can't afford ~10tb of SSDs.
Believe me if I could, this wouldn't be an issue.
I think I might just go back to the P183, put some Noctuas in there, and keep it like that until SSDs reach price parity with HDDs.

Thoughts on the Razer Deathadder Chroma™ /g/?
A little backstory; I bought a Razer Deathadder 2013 a few years back and have loved it ever since, but I've just worn out the pads underneath the mouse and need a new one ASAP. Should I try and get another Deathadder 2013 or is the new Chroma even better?

I've heard a lot of bad reviews about it breaking after a few months due to shitty thin plastic build. That's why I got a G402 instead.

i got it for xmas this year and i have no complaints so far. fits palm grip nicely, mouse buttons have a nice click

GrayFish. It can brick all your drives at once whenever the attacker wants and it's hardly detectable, it might be taking a nap right now in your SSD while waiting for the appropriate signal.
Help me decide which phone i should get. *they are pretty similar in price.

Thank you for your input sir.
Yes, the metal body and 4000mAh battery is a big turn on for the note 3, however G2 has that ideal 5,2' form factor. Both perform similarly hardware wise but have the same problem: no expandable storage.

Why do people want a Year of the Linux desktop?
Nothing good will come out of it.
Even if computers came with linux pre-installed, it would inevitably be some branded garbage with every manufacturer and OEM having their own fork of ubuntu and adding bloatware and shit.
Any person who isn't a total illiterate would just wipe the drive and install a fresh copy of their favorite distro.
Not to mention, the idiots who don't do this will absolutely destroy the already shitty linux community by watering it down much like "eternal september", asking the same shitty questions over and over and asking to troubleshoot the shitty bloatware portions of their branded linux distro.
Don't forget that soon all development will start to pander to dumb users so the scary command line will have to be dumbed down, sidestepped, or removed altogether, maybe as part of systemd in the near future.
Ubuntu already gives users very little reason to use the command line because everything is designed around a gui.
And finally, SJWs will be so assblasted at all the "boys club" linux terminology that linux will fall out of public favor and it's users will be considered even more undesirable than thought possible.
So really, there is literally zero tangible benefit for linux to come preinstalled on a computer and becoming popular with tech illiterates that make up 99% of the computer using population.

Unfortunately on the computers that have came out with ubuntu installed, this is the case.
>bloatware
i used to work helpdesk
this reminds me of all the times I had to deal with people trying to use the manufacturers bloatware versions of basic things like the wifi selector or even the start menu.
Why do they do this shit? Why do they try to side-step the OS by adding redundant software that doesn't even perform as well as the stock OS features?

Looking good, OP. Specs?
I finished up my silent Evolv ATX build and it's pretty great. Runs more quietly than my Air 540, and temps are the exact same.
