whys that? I've just started getting into it. Mostly because I'm pissed off about Windows10. 7 was alright but I don't want 10 shoved down my throat and now i'm learning all about free software and Stallman.
You see, the name "GNU" is a hack. The "G" is "GNU" stands for "GNU"

So, sort of like the "P" in "PHP"?
GNU is NOT Umbrellas

Title says it all /g/. Time and time again I see for myself or hear stories of some software developer talking out of their ass when it comes to hardware requirements or issues.
So why do they do it /g/? What makes some programmers believe that because they can code in Python they then magically understand how processors function?
I soldered a CPU in javascript

>literally mfw I tried using some pleb tier speakers recently after becoming an audiophile
It's amazing how people can listen to stuff that sounds like pure shit. What's the point of even listening to music if you're going to use shit to listen to it with?
Sometimes I think the only people who hate audiophiles are poorshits who can't afford to become one.
>>52072022
I feel that way when i see people with basic earbuds.
>>52072022
most people have things more important to do in their life than complain about speakers. I do hate it when someone plays music on their phone, cranks it up max volume, and thinks it's okay to listen to such distorted shit.
