Well you paid about $30 more just for some g-keys
Well you bought two mice and two mouse pads you fucking retard.
>>51766460
I use those "g-keys".
what does /g/ use as a browser?
>>51766443
Used Chromium went to use Firefox recently, it was shit, now I'm using Chromium. Kinda sad It's not as much customization in looks.
>>51766443
Opera 12.16
Firefox, because despite all the shit it gets, it works flawlessly for me.
This has been such a headache.
I did a clean install of Win 10 on this new laptop I got, and quickly discovered that there were 6 partitions on it.
-The main partition
-A recovery partition
-3 empty partitions of unknown purpose
-The pictured EFI System Partition
Using DISKPART, I was able to delete 4 of the 5 unwanted partitions. However, this EFI System Partition is resisting my efforts to get rid of it.
Should I get rid of this EFI System Partition? I looked inside of it, and it seems to be a recovery image from the manufacturer. It has all of HP's bloatware on it, so as far as I can tell, I don't want it or need it.
If this interpretation is accurate, how can I get rid of it? The "delete partition override" command doesn't work.
Second, how can I get my C: drive to absorb all of that unallocated space?
Thanks!
>Should I get rid of this EFI System Partition?
jesus christ kid put down mmc before you hurt somebody
Note: When I try to delete the EFI partition, I get the following message - Virtual Disk Service error: Delete is not allowed on the current boot, system, pagefile, crashdump, or hibernation volume.
>>51766374
Is that a no? What's mmc?
If I ought not get rid of it, how can I, at least, get that unallocated space to the left of it onto my C: drive?
pls recommend a USB DAC, /g/

I have a Fii0 e10k, best 75 bucks I've spent in a long time. Have some hd595s and everything sounds pretty fantastic. If you want somethin ga little nicer, the ODAC and 02 have the best pure specs, but I definitely couldn't tell the difference

For fucks sake. We already mastered the alarm clock, what mongo engineer decided to put flashbang-tier luminosity in all the alarm clocks?
Also ITT, other examples of technology moving ass backwards.
Modern phones.
>>51766022
If you want dim, why are you getting blue LEDs?
Try a green LED Sony Dream Machine like the ICF-C414 I have. That gets extremely dim.
>alarm clock
What, you don't have a phone? Or a TV? Or a radio?
Is there any reason to choose a 970 over a R9 390?
memes
Optimization
Heat
Power (barely)
Noise
>>51765991
Many games are optimised more strongly for Nvidia than AMD so even though theoretically the 390 is on par realistically it won't be. That said, the general rule between the two cards is to go for the 970 if on 1080p or below, and go for the 390 if above 1080p resolution.
Old thread was slow as fuck.
Intended for users of all levels, including absolute beginners.
There are three ways to try Linux, you can:
1) Install a Linux OS on a VM (Virtual Machine/VirtualBox) for "safety purposes"
2) Use the Live ISO directly without installing anything, that way, you can get a "full Linux experience".
3) Go balls deep and overwrite everything with Linux (not recommended)
If you are serious about switching to Linux and if you have Windows dual-booted (recommended for pure newbies),
we recommend you use it exclusively for 2 weeks, and avoid Windows dual booting for that period of time, or it's
likely you will start retreating back to windows instead of getting used to GNU/Linux as your new home and working on
making it feel the way you want it.
>Recommended for beginners:
-Ubuntu MATE
-Debian (For Broadcom devices, use an ISO that includes non-free firmware)
-openSUSE
-LinuxMint (a.k.a Ubuntu LTS + Cinnamon)

This time I'm really tired, so I'll answer that: If you are serious about switching to GNU plus Linux (or whatever) be sure that you have one or two free weeks to do that. This is not a matter if you boot onto Windows, you just have to understand the difference between them.

He may be a retard, but I'm sure he gets more pussy than all of /g/ combined. This setup is pretty much the opposite of autism

Ok 4chan seriously how do I fix this?

>>51765830
CMOS Battery. Never seen one before ? It usually is a round watch battery that says CR 2032 on it.
>>51765830
Remove the motherboard battery and put it back in. I know you think the people on /b/ were fucking with you but you should actually do it.
>>51765830
Enter the setup password, that should fix it
Is there a program I can use to crack the password on a rar file I made? I have a general idea of the passwords I'd use. Including numbers/letters. If that makes it any easier. My general password is a sequence of gibberish followed by numbers. But I can't figure out what it is now
>>51765825
email the rar file back to its owner tyrone
>>51765834
Its mine, Abdul.
I know what passwords I use usually, but I was drunk and thought it would be a good idea to hide things. Then I didn't remember anymore the next day.

first off, im new to all pc stuff
also, pic semi-related
so i bought a pc about a month and a half ago and it was able to run any game i threw at it at 60 fps+ on max settings. for some reason, about a week ago, my pc started to run games poorly, getting around 10-20 fps. now, a lot of my games are severely unplayable. to give a reference, about a week ago, i could play fallout 4 at 60 fps on ultra, now i get 20-25 on low. i have my gpu driver updated, so im not sure what could be causing the problems. wtf happened?
Show us a picture of the inside of your computer.
i dont have a picture, but the specs are:
windows 10
3.4 GHz Intel Core i7
16 GB RAM
2TB hard drive
AMD Radeon R9 380 2 gb
i bought it on amazon. its a cyberpowerPC GXI 820

Check your running processes.
My brother want's new membrane keyboard. What's a good one for <$80?
Microsoft Natural Elite.
> $80 budget for a membrane keyboard
Why?
Why does he want a membrane? You can get mechanicals for that budget.
Ayy /g/, give me your shitty advice or face the consequences
I'm thinking of getting the XPS 13 with the i5, 8 gigs of RAM, the 128 SSD, and the 1080p non-touch screen.
Good idea? Bad? How's Linux support (I may install it later, not right away)? Should I buy from the Microsoft Store? How does their student discount thing work? Is an SP4 a better idea (I think not, I don't really need a tablet). Thanks.

First thing in the morning, what do I see? A pile of shit staring at me. I close my eyes, I step away. No matter where I go, there’s no getting away. Take your poo to the loo. Take your poo to the loo. Take your poo to the loo. Take your poo to the loo.
Poo, poo, poo, poo, poo, everywhere. Poo, poo, poo, poo, poo, next to you. Poo, poo, poo, poo, poo, where is that loo?
I step out on the street. What do I smell? Shit that’s stinky to high hell. I hold my breath, I step away. But everywhere I go, there’s no getting away.
Poo, poo, poo, poo, poo, everywhere. Poo, poo, poo, poo, poo, next to you. Poo, poo, poo, poo, poo, everywhere. Poo, poo, poo, poo, poo, where is that loo.
Shit, not shit, this shit, that shit. Let’s see now. Let me check. Happy birthday. Happy birthday.
Poo, poo, poo, poo, poo, everywhere. Poo, poo, poo, poo, poo, next to you. Poo, poo, poo, poo, poo, everywhere. Poo, poo, poo, poo, poo, where is that loo.
