Previous thread >>52396214
Two fucking threads again. Since this one has the standard OP, and it was made first I vote for this to be the one we stay with.
so apparently this is the proper watch thread
mice thread; rate your mouse.
thoughts on g602?

anyone use a g602?
I give my leftie Deathadder 3.5 an 8/10. Its shape is very comfy.
>>52400831
Deathadders would be decent mice if it weren't for the fact that they break down WAY too soon.
Rate - hate - appreciate

>all those botnet applications
>impractical hidden statusbar
>app drawer icon doesn't match the others
also I don't understand icon packs. what's the point? you can never get one that has an icon for every app you use so whenever you enter the app drawer you're reminded of the imperfection, and the icon pack styles never ever match the style of the os. It's just a mask.
Please God let a 9.2 jailbreak come soon.
I miss my Galaxy S3 +CM12.1 combo.
I mean the hardware of the S6 is nice, and I'm enjoying having 128GB onboard, and many of the features in iOS are useful but damn I need my actual file manager, home screen customization and app drawer back.
>>52400886
For reference, here's how I had my S3 set up.
About to wipe out linux hard drive and install Win 8.1. How fucked am I?
>>52507417
The question is not "how fucked"
The question is "how cucked"
And the answer to that question is "extremely so"
Why not windows 10?
>>52507458
I have extremely slow DSL, and happen to have 8.1 on a usb stick. Can install that, and let 10 slowly download in the background.
What if /g/ was a school?

First lesson of the day: Installing Gentoo.
Get out your thinkpads and install ubuntu with the provided CD so that we can read the gentoo wiki.

Would it kill you to write more descriptive variable names?
Also, stop abusing ternary operators
Filter bubble
A filter bubble is a result of a personalized search in which a website algorithm selectively

>A filter bubble has been described as exacerbating a phenomenon that has been called splinternet or cyberbalkanization,[13] which happens when the Internet becomes divided up into sub-groups of like-minded people who become insulated within their own online community and fail to get exposure to different views; the term cyberbalkanization was coined in 1996.
>>52503283
You are in a filter bubble, evident by your lack of ability to read a small amount of text.

Verizon shill, ask your questions. Nothing too technical. I am a salesman after all.
If you ask about the godamn fucking FIOS I hope you stop breathing in your sleep. We don't have it. We will never have it. I don't know fuck all about it. Shut up I don't know.
>>52501178
hey fuck you nigger
>>52502072
Well that is entirely unkind.
I will not lie to you anons. I won't give away my identity but I'll answer anything within the best of my knowledge.
I know for a fact I've helped at least 6 anons lower their bills through general questions they just never have brought up in person.
Is Verizon ever going to bring back unlimited high speed LTE plans?
I'm thinking of getting an LG G4 is it better than an iphone?
bretty gud if you like androids. I really like the screen and the removable battery
>>52501112
I'm typing this on a G4 right now and can in fact confirm it's a great Android. However a glaring issue on it is that one of the gimmicks, the ability to tap the screen twice in order to unlock it, hardly works (like maybe 8% of the time)

Normie here, what advantages are there to switch from Windows to a Linux based distro or whatever alternative free OS you guys use?
I'm jelly of the stuff you guys post in desktop generals, but I know jack about programming (medstudent here,) will I need to learn it to do stuff in terminal?
Also, what's the recommended one to start with? Thanks.

I hated this film
Everyone on /tv/ loves it
I think it might be because it's really dumb if you know how any of this shit works
Does /g/ agree Ex Machina a shit?
can you boot Gentoo from a live usb
>>52500402
Amazing movie.
5/7 - perfect score!
>>52500402
I think it's pretty funny that you want people to believe that you know how any of this works.
Is this good? Just bought
