Will/Is the steam machine a good alternative for gaming?
I would rather run a Linux system proper (freedom), but I still enjoy playing games.
>>51747772
Yes. Don't support the console industry when Steam machines are an option. Consoles are just locked down personal computers with proprietary everything. Who wants to deal with game discs anyways? Also, cloud save files are legit.
why would you run an operating system that literally only limits the games you can play, forces you to use steam, and offers none of the benefits of just using windows?
fuck off back to /r/pcmasterrace where everyone will jerk off to valve

>Implying steam machines are not exactly the same thing as a console
>>51747772
Just get a PC and hook it to your tv. Use a wireless keyboard/mouse/controller. You'll get something way better than a steam machine.
Traded my xbox one for this computer. The computer has a hard time keeping up with games, What parts should I upgrade.
Get a new GPU
Maybe a newer CPU
>>51747720
any tips on what to get?

Budget? What resolution/settings do you want to play on?
im i too late to buy i5 haswell when skylake and ddr4 are in the picture?
Yes.
Delete this thread, learn to create coherent sentences, and then create a new thread.
skylake is shit
So what is it /g/? Do you turn your computer off at night?
No because its worth the extra $.04 a day to piss off environmentalists.
>>51747500
I do but if I leave for an hour or two I just put it on sleep. I have an ssd so in reality it doesn't really matter if I turn it off, I would just need to put in my password.
No because I'm not a poorfag who cares about a couple dollars on my electricity bill.
>he doesn't use geany
Why is /g/ so retarded ? You all insist on using a shit bloated text editor that was developed by a fat neckbeard and his autistic friends. It's light weight and yet will always be more practical than emacs.
>>51747394
You're just too dumb to use emacs.
>>51747413
>too dumb
Le key shortcuts make me smart xDDDDDDDDDDDD
I CAN SURF DA WEB ON MY TEXT EDITOR xDDDDDD
I EDIT MY CONFIG FILES IN EMACS SO I CAN RICE MY WEEB DESKTOP xDDDDDDDD
>>51747394
Hello fellow geany bro
I use geany because most other IDEs are heavy as fuck, and too difficult to use. Geany's plain, straightforward and hassle free

What's wrong with it?
Newfag here, I wanna get started with programming. Which language do I learn first and why?
>>51747180
FORTRAN77
Learn you some Haskell, OP.
You will never need to learn another language again.
Most importantly, it doesn't matter all that much. Most of the general concepts are very much transferrable between most languages.
My recommendations would be Python, Lua or C. Just pick anything that's at least semi-popular and start learning it. Don't waste too much time cherrypicking the "right" one to learn first.
On a scale of 1 to JUST how badly have I fucked up?
/g/ is NOT your personal consumer review site
>>51747155
install gentoo
>>51747155
I told you to by the [New Version], but you just had to be an idiot.
Good thing you only wasted ~$15.
Kyoko have 2 monitors setup
what's your excuse for using only one monitor?
I have a second monitor that I keep off and set to single monitor in Windows.
I would turn in CS:GO and it would switch to my 2nd monitor despite the game running in fullscreen mode.
2nd monitor colors so shit and 60hz so aids compared to new monitor I don't even want to put anything over there.
Extra performance? Because CS:GO sure as fuck doesn't have any of that.
I never did look up the monitor switching thing while aiming too fast tho.
>>51747072
What episode is that from?
>>51747072
My 5k Retina makes up for that. Double the pixels, literally.
Why did it fail, /g/?
>>51747029
SJW tbf (to be frank)
>>51747029
It didn't
>>51747029
Because the only language that can improve on C++ is... C++. It's never going away.
None, because I have a phone I'm happy with and don't need to spend money just because something is on sale.
>>51746995
every heard of a backup phone
>>51746974
Bought four. Gave 2 to a coworker for free.
Gave one to a kid. And I have the last one as a daily driver with an att sim.

Imouto's package is ugly, he bundles mpdn with tons of addons, custom mpc-hc and potplayer and shitty anime background.
However he updates it very often and that's great.
madvr tends to crash if you scrub too hard or skip a lot quickly
Anyone else have similar experiences or knows a fix?
Emby theater is coming with all amazing new features and awesome interface.
It will kill kodi, plex, wmc and other media players.
Why are tech reviews and in general tech videos feel like one big shill video?
Take Linux Tech Tips for example, when you watch any of his reviews it's like watching a paid actor shill some product. It's horrible to watch.

It's because he IS a shill. Actually.

Because that's exactly what they are.
Dual gpu masterrace report in.
Can someone explain what AFR friendly mode is for crossfire profiles and when to use it?
When I use the default mode in Hatred, performance is pure shit. Enabling AFR gives a massive FPS boost and no visible issues.
People report almost 200% fps scaling with AFR in witcher 3, compared to default that's just a bit better than one card.
Do you just try everything if default profiles are bad?
Also why does Battlefront still have no crossfire support? I thought Frostbyte is great for that.
