>had my first tech interview
>for internship at extremely popular startup
>only one position for next year
>I knew one guy from before but the other guy seemed pissed off the entire time
>was extremely awkward at first, forgetting words, stammering, shaking, saying extremely complicated sentences and downplaying my skills
>settled into it later somewhat
>had tons of projects, they said nothing about them
>half way through technical question they asked me a second one
>technically solved both but barely
>they stopped me while I was fixing syntax errors, said it was close enough
>pretty sure I did well on the culture/personality questions
good points:
>lasted a long time, they didn't kick me out
>they told me they would let me know as soon as possible because they didn't want to lose me (pissed off guy said this though, could have been sarcastic)
please tell me your worst interviews so I feel better
Please respond

>using an usb-powered dac
>buying a filter to reduce the noise of your usb-powered dac when you could have just gotten a linear power supply with zero noise for the same price
it's triple retarded
>>51935419
I just bought an Audioengine D1, was that a big mistake? Keep in mind that I'm in the EU, there aren't a lot of DACs availible.
I've got around 80 bucks to spend. I can get the G700s for around 40-50. What does /g/ recommend for a really good, no compromises gaming mouse? I'm open to suggestions.
>>51935327
No wireless shit.

>>51935418
I have the Rival, and a G600. I don't like the Rival because its not really ergonomic for me. I use the G600 when I need to and I have no complaints but I want a good ergonomic fps mouse.
>>51935327
Can't go wrong with this. I have a 700 and its handy, responsive, feels good in the hand. Has buttons that're useful without being goofy gimmick shit i.e. not in the way if you don't use them.
Battery isn't great, probably 8 or so hours on it but I use it wired.
How many of you faggots are still using windows 7? I don't think I'm upgrading to w10 any time soon, how long do I have before windows fucks me in the ass to force w10 on me?
Depends on if you updated it and when Microsoft wants you to update
>>51935281
>w7
>not windows vista
fair for a pleb
>>51935317
you still use vista? sir..
ITT: We talk about all the monitor memes such as:
144Hz vs 60Hz - Does it really matter?
TN vs IPS - Does it really matter?
>>51935086
>monitor
>tech
pick one
>144Hz vs 60Hz - Does it really matter?
yes
>TN vs IPS - Does it really matter?
yes
>>51935086
Personally not into the Hz meme but I'm not a competitive gamer. As for TN vs. IPS, yes it does matter.

Roccat Arvo, it's 'okay'.
Moving to a mechanical keyboard next week, Ducky 2
got it last week with MX browns, really enjoying it so far
was good while it served it's purpose. played lots of wow, multiboxed, the 18 extra keys were nice for macro's. don't play wow, time to downsize. probably get a 710 with blue switches, cuz i like the multi-media functionality logitech has.
I thought there were laws against this shit.

If you are poor they stock AMD also.
4-core skylel costs almost twice as much as a 4-core haswell chip. Topkek.
Who the fuck came up with these?
some money-gouging old bastard that thought it would be hilarious to have a mounting system that breaks so you have to get a new heatsink
>>51934476
AMD did

replacement pins are literally a dollar on ebay, however I agree on the ridiculousness of these damn things.

Curb your autism senpai, I got that from /fa/ a few days ago. It's that Clover saves the original filename in case you didn't know.
Come on guys, no suggestions at all? Should I have made an inflamatory post to get answers instead?
alright, /g/

/**
I'd just like to interject for moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is
in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux.
Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free
component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs,
shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined
by POSIX. Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every
day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of
GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users
are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU
Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is
just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the
system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you
run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by
itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system.
Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the
whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the
so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!

I have many issues with skype and microshit but all my friends use skype. Need an alternative that has skype features but isn't shit so that they can be converted
Need:
>voip that doesn't bomb your internet
>quality video chat
>text chat transfers between computers
>good group chat functionality
Said friends don't give a shit about privacy so encryption is only a bonus, not a selling point.

They had a webapp web.linphone.org you could use, but they literally discontinued it today (https://www.linphone.org/news/41/26/Linphone-web-forced-discontinuation.html)

Let's you install your own server + webapp with Kamailio +Ruby on Rails

This is looking great so far, it may be exactly what we're looking for. This is also nifty since there are a lot of cases where people will need to be in a voip call only once or twice, so the browser functionality is good.
>>51933687
none of that looks bad, but how polished are they? couple of friends and I tried out tox earlier since we heard good things about it, but it's definitely not at that level of polish yet and is a bit buggy. I also need to emphasize the ease of use that's going to be required; my casual friends aren't gonna want to jump through hoops to get this shit to work
Hello /g/ents, i'm looking to install a linux distro on a old computer i have lying around, what distro is best in your opinions?

What's a good digital audio player?
-Budget: $100 (the more surplus the better; I'd like to buy other things)
-comes with decent stock earphones (otherwise I'd buy Piston 3s)
-must play OGG Vorbis (could care less about FLAC, but thou shall not separate me from my open format)
-can manage at least a workday of playtime while playing
-would really like it to scrobble
-a clip is also nice (since not all clothes I wear have pockets)
-good build quality is desired (I can buy cheap chink players by the dozen but would rather not)
-doesn't sound shit when listening to jazz and jazz accessories
-is at least competitive to my current setup involving Clementine and Turtlebeach Ear Force Shadow headphones
You know, something with which I can do what I have been doing, but do it outside or while cleaning. What have you got?
Is it the picture? I wasn't so confident with the picture. I wanted to post this.

Is that Dimitry from Hardware Canucks?
>>51934133
It very well could be.
