>Grils in technology/computer science stories
Feel free to post what you like.
BR girl in my class is a 5/10 but a decent body. Bf is some white nerd who I guess feels like this was the best he'd do. She's pretty cool but kind of a ditz
>Be 3rd year CS
>She gets full honours, student of the month
>can't program worth a damn, doesn't know shit about basic operating system functionality/networking/anything
>literally just studies to the tests and the questions like a parrot being taught words
Decides she wants a real full-time job, but college says to cover her work placement for 2nd semester it has to be a tech job
>bf hooks her up with good tech job, while the rest of us are struggling
>messages me a week or two into it
"help pls, need to write a powershell script, what even is that?"
>explain to her how google works
>20 mins later she messages me and she's trying commands that won't work but she's basically no idea what she's doing or how to program
She explains she needs to take a txt file of computer names and check if the firewall is on or off
>Be the most beta fgt on the planet and decide to help her because I have nothing else to do on a Wednesday night other than jerk off and shitpost on /g/
Learn some powershell scripting. At this point she's gone home from work with nothing done. Begin writing script and have a working solution that wasn't copypasta from google by about 11:00pm
>Get a msg next morning saying she'll try it out
>Messages me later on that day saying it kind of worked but x
Sends me a screenshot of the IDE, 5 tabs of untitled open where she's clearly tried something but failed.
>>51798246
>contd.
>Go max beta and help. I tell her what she needs to do
Get a message later on that evening saying thanks it worked, "omg tk you sooo much" etc
>Code i wrote is now responsible for checking if some company's firewall is on
The script was largely based off remote sessions. Could have easily written in a backdoor and cat'd the ips of those PC names to a txt file then remotely sent the txt file to a server of my choosing. Thus having full unrestricted access (pretty likely as I'm sure one of the PCs would have admin) to the entire company's network.
>hue hue I guess
>be me 3rd year in top ten university
>8/10 grrl in artificial intelligence class
>she's clearly retarded and probably only got in because affirmative action
>realize she's smarter than me

>literally spoonfeeding
Literally.
Any cool simple tech gifts to give to a girl? Fashionable headphones by Beats?

Why the fuck do games do this? At some point during development doesn't someone say something?
Also, name the game.

WHAT'S YOUR OFFER?
I'm a senior in high school wanting to go into Computer Science. I am in a very successful robotics program and have experience in c++, c#, and g code. What are the most beneficial languages to learn for that field of study?
>>51797961
What are you on about, CS is math. If you want to program fuck off to software engineering pleb.
Was this bait?
>>51797992
Computer Science is merely the study of how Computers work and the willingness to use this knowledge to further advance technology.
>>51797992
So basically. You're saying going into computer science, I wont have to write a single line of code. I don't want to program, I just want to know what languages would be beneficial to learn on my free time.
Does anyone know of a good old school 256 color icon set for Linux. Similar in style to the icons in IRIX, NeXTStep, or CDE?
>>51797849
Bump for interest
The glossy new icon sets look weird with WindowMaker, FVWM, or MWM. Faience, for instance looks great on, say, Gnome or KDE. Not so great on older WMs.
There was a guy on NekoChan making new icons in the IRIX style, but I don't think he ever finished them (or posted any of the ones he did finish).
Is this a meme or not ffs
if you have to ask then yes
>>51797821
SATA III SSDs are a Meme.
M.2 on the other hand...
Ssds are not a meme. You notice the performance difference immediately.
What do you guys think of this PC for doing things like playing video games (League of Legends, Fallout 4, CS:GO, Osu!, etc), streaming, and the occasional Photoshop crap?
>sold out
It's available at my local Costco. I'm looking to upgrade my laptop because it cannot stream and drops frames on games and movies at least twice a day.

Is chrome actually bad or is it just a meme?
>>51797803
just a meme, all good browsers are botnets if you consider chrome a botnet.
It's better than firefox in literally every way except privacy. you can disable the data collection but /g/ seems to think that those options don't do anything, despite there being no evidence of such
Botnet aside, resource hog.
>Really want to build a new PC
>There hasn't really been any significant CPU upgrades since my last build(Ivy Bridge)
I really should wait for kaby or canonlake right?
Xenia and Citra are makigng strides and I want my next build to be ready for them
>>51797756
there's hasn't been any significant cpu upgrade since sandy bridge
zen is literally our only hope, intel have tossed aside the idea of higher performance
>>51797766
Isn't Cannonlake pretty much a guaranteed decent upgrade?
I heard it was supposed to be impressive when it hits.
>>51797783
just like skylake was, right?

So I got $2000 of Best Buy credit, and I'm looking for a good gaming laptop for mobility since I don't have a place for a desktop. I'm looking for some 15"+ screen, good graphics, cpu, ram, ventilation, and upgrade-ability... Do you have any recommendations /g/?
>>51797675
ASUS ROG G752 highest affordable spec.
Seriously, the ROG G series is the only real legitimate "Gaymen" laptop that's worth it in the slightest.

> fire up Fallout 4 on a 4GB card (GTX680)
> VRAM usage varies between 1.5 - 1.9 GB
is there a way to make use of all available VRAM?
>>51797401
why?
install gentoo
>>51797401
No because Fallout 4's textures are too shit to use more VRAM.
