This thread is about the appreciation of watches, as well as the micro-engineering and materials engineering that is required to make a fine watch.

I saw some pretty sweet Citizen watches at a local shop for over $1k, now I don't know a lot about watches but could they be worth that much? Isn't Citizen generally pretty average?
>All these dogshit watches being suggested lately.
Is someone subtly trolling us, or are these threads as pathetic as 9-fag's depressing life?

Why are Indians everywhere in tech?
Because they don't have a sense of entitlement and have worked for what they have, while simultaneously leveraging the thoughts of many white americans that everything HAS to be "culturally diverse" because of some imaginary hybrid superiority/inferiority complex that white liberals have.

Disable fit, play books or anything you don't use.
I no longer block ads. After growing up, I have realized that companies actually do earn money on this stuff. It hurts the Web as a whole if no one is able to figure out making money on it. Since this is INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY, it makes sense that commercial information that communicates with the purpose of selling is going to drive a lot of the economic flow around this. In other words, it is good for the Web that companies advertise.
What we need is not less advertising. We need less intrusive advertising. Advertising that does not work in a way that is offensive. I think 4chan's banners are a good example of that. J-list's banners are not annoying. They even fit the color scheme of the SFW boards. Whereas the top 4chan image is annoying and obnoxious at this point (military guys with odd faces).
Environmentally, very little resources go into a single delivery of banners compared to a single delivery of printed advertisements. So say NO to printed advertisements, but allow digital ones unless they are done in such a way that the website ruins your user experience through them. (Newspapers are notoriously bad here.)
Picture unrelated.
i block ads

good goyim
I'm not blocking the ads, I just told my browser to refuse the ads permission to appear in my browser.
All things steam link related go here.
Being such a new device there isn't a ton of information online yet so we will consolidate our knowledge here.
The steam link is brand new and as with almost all new tech there are glitches and bugs needing to be ironed out. The link is no exception. If you are the kind of person that expects everything to run 100% smooth out of the box then the link probably isn't for you at this time. If you are an early adopter or don't mind dealing with bugs that come along with such a new product then jump in.
What belongs here?
• Questions
• Problems
• Suggestions
• Experiences
What doesn't belong here?
• HDMI cord is better! (if we could use an hdmi cord we would you dipshit)
• Steam sucks! (we don't care what you think)
Is this the good goymer thread?
>>51669446
This is the thread where we discuss the technical aspects of the steam link.
I just opted into steams beta program which updates the links firmware and it's fixed a ton of bugs.

Can it do Netflix?
I moved to Germany for grad school and I was told torrenting was risky here. What're my options to download movies/music/games?
>>51669302
None

Just say your name is Ahmed and you'll have immunity to every crime committed.
VPN
Seedbox

It's mostly seeding that gets you done in not torrenting itself

Why does /g/ think it's cool to pretend to bate toolbars?
I've been using Ask Toolbar and Smileys We Love in emails for years and it just works.
/g/ likes to cum over their browser rice extensions but toolbars are somehow different just because they're not 2minimalistic4u flat design?
Guys

That one guy who actually uses toolbars

Toolbars do not care about your privacy
Toolbars require more system resources

What is your favorite way to remove dust and pollutants from a brand new phone before applying a screen protector?
The lint-free shit i have from walmart leaves lint.
and the nanosecond that my phone gets dust-free, a random ass dust falls from somewhere. everytime.
why don't they just fucking factory put in the screen protector? they have contamination chambers and all that.

They are cheap, work well, and you don't even notice them if they're out on right.
Since Netflix plays back videos in a format whose decoding is accelerated by the GPU, can I intercept Netflix's video stream by modifying the decoder in my GPU?
>>51668776
Yes
>>51668791
how 2 do??
>>51668776
Why though? Everything on Netflix is available on torrents and rather way you will be breaking the rules
Do you prefer to do web-dev or do algorythmic stuff?

Need to pay Car Insurance and rent, just lost my job, wondering how much I could sell my rig for. It's not much, but assuming you saw this on Craigslist, how much would you pay for it?

AMD FX6300

I could advertise to dudebro's that it runs Battlefield Hardline, CSGO, etc at ultra
>>51668603
realistically you'd be lucky to get 500 bucks. But you could do what everyone else does with similar specs and advertise it for 1250 and see what happens.
>>51668638
If I put it up for $400 would people bite?
It's all about the advertising. Sell it for $750 but hype up the stats. It's a 1000MB 750Ti, not a 750Ti.
The 6300 is a 4.2GHz HYPERCLOCKED 6 CORES
and so on
Do you really think theres a botnet? Even ISIS uses windows

>>51668308
here's your reply
>>51668308
Sadly the can't use some licenses, some restrics that software can be used only for good.
ISIS is a military-industrial complex funded project setup to funnel tax payers money from the treasury to the military-industrial complex. They probably not only use Windows 10 but even pay the licenses.
