What exactly is so great about Unix and Unix-like software? /g/'s obsession with all things Unix is almost cult-like.
It's free
>>52236516
Unix philosophy has nothing to do with software freedom.
>>52236508
They believe in following industry standards so that software is compatible with other software.
Microsoft, Apple only care about maintaining compatibility with software that they wrote and sell.
Has anyone ever updated their CPU microcodes to run the latest instructions sets? I know that you can spoof CPUID in VM, but what about updating the microcode on the CPU itself?
Is it too complex of a task currently?
>>52236336
That's not how it works.
Good luck finding a verifiable sub-sector GDI manipulator with hash 12 sprites.
I don think that's even technically possible

Which hardware manufacturer is the biggest supporter of GNU/Linux and why don't more companies support it?
Sauce.
>>52236235
Because normies don't know how to use linux because it is not as user friendly as OSX and Windows (With exceptions like Ubuntu for the most part)
So the "hardcore" Linux users are a very small percentage of the market share, and thus a company would not spend time and money catering to their needs.
All intel video/wifi/ethernet drivers are open source and available for Linux systems immediately so they're probably the best. Atheros has pretty good support too, they've also open sourced the firmware to a few of their chips

You literally just described every language.
Computer Science General
Lets talk about Algorithms, Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, Quantum computing, etc
Lets leave those silly WebDevs and Autismo Devs in their generals and have a real discussion about technology.
Todays proposition;
Solving computation of GO will lead to groundbreaking developments in Strong AI

Not op, but What happened in the DPT?
I want a raspberry pi to use as a media pc (web browsing, videos, music, etc.) but don't know what exactly to buy. What model should I get and what accessories should I buy along with it.

>I want a raspberry pi to use as a media pc (web browsing, videos, music, etc.) but don't know what exactly to buy.
Probably a Raspberry Pi.
>What model should I get
The latest one.
>and what accessories should I buy along
Peripherals n shieet.
>>52236113
Ethernet cable
Pi B 2
Keyboard/mouse (if you are going to use the desktop). A usb wifi dongle is also nice. Get a good 2A micro usb charger (you shitty phone charger is not going to perform well). Make sure the cable is not too long.
Use the latest Raspbian Jessie (I highly recommend the minimal build).

So my current setup is basically as follows:
I have an internet cable plugging into a modem which is then plugged into a router (duh) from there i have ran a wifi repeater with a different ssid and encryption key. So network 1 is repeated as network 2 with a new password of 4 instead of 3. from there i have a onionpi system then picking up and re transmitting the repeated network now encrypted through the tor network. I then start up my pc. i spoof my MAC address as well as change my username pc name and hdd serial number. i then connect to the onionpi. After connecting...

You could just stop masturbating to pictures of children.
So i downloaded some stuff on mega for ipad, and then tried to transfer it to my pc using a cable, but i dont know how. I tried to download it again on my pc, but the link is already dead. Can anyone help? And yes, i looked for it in google before and nothing.
>>52235969
I think there are apps for that, but the last time I used an iphone was 4 years ago, anyway you have to download the app (search for "usb transfer") then plug the pad to the pc, then open itunes, then open the usbtransferapp section in itunes and THEN YOU CAN TRANSFER SOME GODDAMN FILES WITH A CABLE.
FUCKING RETARDED
>>52235969
Get itunes on your pc, under the device go to the apps tab, scroll down and youll see app documents, select the app and then select the documents you want to transfer.

Or just rename it and upload to another service.

i just googled s6 water resistant and a few articles came up claiming it is... interesting.. told you there was a conspiricy
Why is it that i feel a relief when switching between Windows and Linux and end up on Linux? What is this witchery?
I use the same shit on Windows and on Linux (Sublime + Chrome) and it just feels different.
And the suspend time on Linux is crazy. I just sit there and wait for Windows to suspend, while Linux suspends almost imediately.
