/g/ I need help with symbolic links
I'm trying to make it so that my default "Pictures" folder in Windows is actually stored in my External drive. This is the command I've triedmklink /J C:\Users\MyUsername\Pictures D:\MyFolder
And the error I get is that it cannot create a file when that file already exists. To me that suggests Windows can't link already existing folders and therefore it wouldn't be possible to link my Pictures folder to an external drive, but the thing is that's how...

I want to buy some new speakers, now ibood has a deal on Denon SC-M39 speakers. No idea if they are any good or not though.
Can anyone give me suggestions? Maybe on decent but fairly priced speakers.
I already have an amp and a sub-woofer.

You dont have to force this via commands, Windows actually has this functionality built in. Right click the pictures folder and go to properties, Location tab. This works for all of the media folders in windows, like Music, videos, documents, etc
I need help stole the phone to my mother and were using the whasap with wifi so I think it sounds illogical but is no way to track it ?
Jamal, follow these steps :
1. give phone back to mommy
2. go to school to learn how to speak english
3. get a job
4. get your own hardware
And that's it! Incredible, isn't it?

Sounds like he is doing a force push.
Tell him to start fucking using merge and rebase, etc.
Fucking savage, use gitflow.
>>51850583
Or he isn't taking the changes yolo fuck you mode.
>>51850583
is there a flag somewhere that would make his 'git push' do that without any additional shit tacked on? he claims that's the only thing he's doing.

Would you buy it?
>>51849975
If it comes in black.
I hate too much silver.
Btw, would install a real OS on it.
>>51849975
>>1080p webcam
Can I just not have a webcam? They're completely useless and all they do is get hacked.
No. It has a glossy screen.
I'm happy with my disposable C720 that cost only a fraction of the price and offers neat enough comfort in Linux as of now. Battery life is great. Why pay more?
>muh gaymen chair
what do you think, faggot
>>51849838
No.
Isn't that the chair that they give away to streamers/youtubers as long as they include it their descriptions?
Just get a Markus.
I'd better get a comfy puffy leather chair that's probably cheaper and less likely to turn my ass cheeks inwards from the flatness

I am curious - who benefits from the SSDs the most?
I can't see the point of them aside from boot time, which is pretty much irrelevant.
They have comparable/worse write speeds to HDDs, so they are not that great for video/image editing .
They don't make much difference for gaymen since there are barely any I/O operations aside from loadings and sometimes asset streaming.
You don't need fast I/O when programming since you are working with files that are mostly few kbs in size.
So - what are they good for? E-peen?
>>51849808
>They have comparable/worse write speeds to HDDs
There is no way this isn't bait, GG anon, it'll just be you holding up the HDD companies when the rest of the world has gone Solid State
>no real difference for gaymen
but muh loading times
also
>worse write speeds
not in random write m8
but to be honest, the ones that benefit the most from SSDs are laptop users, since it can be thrown around without having platters or heads that go completely rip
The only reason to have a magnetic HDD is backup. My newest built is going to have 2x M.2 NVME sticks with a 1 TB WD blue for backup since solid state loses its memory after a certain amount of time.

Is it worth it to get an SLI compatible motherboard? Is it worth it to SLI? I'm building my first rig and everything is almost ready to go except for the motherboard and CPU, I'm thinking of getting an i5 4690 but I don't know if it'll be worth it to SLI in the future as opposed to just upgrading the one card.
I did do a little bit of looking and most people seem to say that SLI is for pushing beyond what the strongest card is capable of, meaning it's more meant for enthusiasts who want more than a single card can offer. I'm looking into...

I believe it's Egg Man from /r9k/. It's had the text "remember guys, no hope" on it but I whited it out.
>>51849025
Any halfway decent motherboard is going to be SLI or CFX compatible.
