ITT: Super Nerd pet peeves:

>Implying its not.
If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck, smells like a duck, fucks like a duck, looks like a duck. Chances are its a fucken duck.
>>52410639
That's right. Just because it's POSIX compliant doesn't make it unix. The only consumer-grade UNIX OS on the market right now is OSX. BSD is great for hobbyists and servers, but it's far from a consumer-grade OS.
My programming professor wants my class to try and install a copy of Windows on the Steam Machine.
How would we go about doing that? I heard something about replacing the hard drive but I'm not sure how complicated the inside of a Steam Machine is and if we can just replace the hard drive without complications.
Also, a classmate has a windows 8.1 usb installation. Not sure if that would do anything. I know nothing about Valve's latest creation.
I don't know anything either. But I'd do some looking around at developer options and research about how updates are applied (if there even has been any yet). Then maybe using that information you can figure out how to install the bootloader from the 8.1 drive. From there, your only problems left would be hardware drivers for wandows to figure out. So maybe to even see if the hardware will work with wandows should be the first step. Maybe buid a test bench with similar hardware?

>Maybe build a test bench with similar hardware?
That is something we're going to have to do if we don't want to obliterate the SM.
Thanks for the start. I'll let people in my class know about some options.
>>52410435
Is that the steam machine in question?
Unless the BIOS/UEFI is locked down tight (unlikely) I don't see an issue, but I haven't seen one in person.

Whats the best way to stream music to a set of speakers from multiple devices? (not at the same time obviously)
I have two laptops, a ipad, androids, and a desktop and I want to be able to control music in the house from any of them. They dont need to acess the same music library.
Apples Airplay seems to be the best solution.

So now that the dust has settled, how did he die? The only source, the debian blog, says, "he passed".
>>52410247
He's dead. Does it matter how he died?
Just remember him for great classics like "we can be an heroes, just for one day"
The Debian extinction event, or the K-T event, is the name given to the die-off of the Debian and other species that took place some 65.5 million years ago. For many years, paleontologists believed this event was caused by climate and geological changes that interrupted the Debian's food supply.

Considering the weird freakout he had on twitter just beforehand, kinda

why post 60$ for a damn hard drive?? why such an evidence case
>useing liquid cooling ever
>>52409780
Spending that much on water cooling instead of spending it in places that actually need it
I never needed a liquid crap for my pc. Plus if you don't know how to install it don't buy it. You'll fuck your shit up.

>Apple Watch Scooped Up Over Half The Smartwatch Market In 2015
>Despite a late arrival to the wearables market, Apple claimed the top spot in terms of device sales, according to new research from Juniper out this week, which stated that the Apple Watch accounted for over 50 percent of smartwatch sales in 2015. Even more impressive is the fact Apple’s Watch only launched at the end of April – meaning it claimed the majority of the market with less than a year...

I have a genius idea for an app. How do I implement it and monetize without Apple banning me, and adding the idea as a standard feature on all their devices?
by giving the idea to me
>>52409522
invest some cash and patent it
It'd be an app for your phone with a simple "on/off" icon for your homescreen.
Whenever you had a boner, you would turn it on. When it retreated, switch back to off.
Basically, the app would use your phone's GPS to place the location of you and your boner on a world/local map. You'd be able to see how many people in the world currently have boners.
You'd also be able to see large clusters of boners in your area and be like "whoa...I better get down there. Something's going on that's giving everyone a boner".
