hey /g/, so you're in the club and this guy slaps your gf's ass. What do you do?
>>51622557
punch him to death. Might take a while getting through his neck forest and fat desert, tough.
nothing, for it is an honor to get cu.cked by the almighty Stallman
Shove a fucking HDMI chip under his nipple. He will forever be filled with non-free hardware.
I hear win 10 has been forced on some people, and even if I ignore it it's going to sit in my taskbar. How do I make it go away and never return, /g/?
Uninstall some updates. That you can Google yourself
>>51622532
The easiest way is to make yourself go away and never return
>>51622532
>Take out hard drive
>Throw in trash
Only way to make it go away.
Hey /g/ is there anything I can do with this box cameras?
nudes
*Box of cameras. Shit.
Take a pic of your legs
I suspect one of my computers has a keylogger on it. How could I confirm this? I have the file.
If I can confirm it is a keylogger I know exactly who put it on my laptop.
Does anybody have any ideas to how I can identify what it is?
>>51622377
>I have the file.
The log file, or executable itself?
Check the task manager, duh
>>51622396
The exe.
It is a rundll32.exe that appeared on my desktop.
Malwarebytes detected it as malware, but when I google the definition I cannot find anything.
if i run my browser in a sandbox, does that mean i can freely allow flash/javascript, since everything is contained? why don't more people suggest sandboxing their browsers for security?
>>51622375
>if i run my browser in a sandbox, does that mean i can freely allow flash/javascript, since everything is contained?
yes altho it should be noted that even sandboxes can be broken out of.
so nothing is guaranteed but it is better. its another layer.
>why don't more people suggest sandboxing their browsers for security?
dont know, maybe cos its one more step and people are lazy?
>>51622375
Browsers are already run in a sandbox.

At this point, still 7. DX12 isn't enough reason for most people.

Why ThinkPad? (also applies to other business laptops)
>They’re really cheap when you buy a used one.
>Keyboards feel excellent while typing (yes, even the newer ones).
>Great durability thanks to the inclusion of rollcages and use of glass fiber reinforced plastic for the chassis. The keyboard is splash proof and spilled liquids will drain out.
>Utilitarian design - e.g. indicator LEDs, 7 row keyboard layout on older models.
>Docking solutions that easily turns your laptop into a desktop.
>Easy to repair, upgrade and maintain thanks to readily available service manuals for almost every model. Spare parts are easy and cheap to obtain.
>The best trackpoint (that red thing on the middle of the keyboard). Great for those who type a lot or hate swiping their fingers all over a touchpad.
>Excellent GNU/Linux & *BSD support.

Just bought a T430
i7-3520m
no RAM (got seller to discount for taking the 4gb that was there out)
500GB HDD
What kind of RAM should I get? I want 16GB.
What kind of SSD can I get while keeping the HDD?
>>51622455
Really, the cheapest 2x8GB kit you can get will work. In this day and age, pretty much all DIMMs are made equal.
Also, if you but the ultrabay SATA compartment, you can insert any SATA SSD you would like and keep the HDD it came with. The other option is to install an mSATA SSD, but those tend to be a little bit more expensive and a little but more finicky.
>>51622455
You can get an mSATA SSD assuming you don't have a WWAN card. Not sure if the --30s had SATA 3 speeds for that yet or if it's still SATA 2 like the --20s, though.
Is this botnet?
this is SPARTAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Hello /g/entoomen,
I'm going to be installing windows 7 or 8 on my new hard drive when it comes in a few days. I use gnu/linux for 99% of my day-to-day tasks, but it's not possible to drop windows for gaymen just yet.
I've looked for a list of updates to block in windows 7 and 8.1 to block the windows telemetry and have seen only a lot of old info that's probably missing most of the newest updates that push this "upgrade" on you. Is there some complete list that is kept up to date? I didn't see any list on the wiki. Supposedly the enterprise version doesn't have all the telemetry garbage but I don't trust that as far as I can throw Balmer's fat ass.
Also, is there a place I can get clean isos of win 7/8.1 that don't have the telemetry updates already baked in? I have a windows 8 iso on a usb drive but it takes forever to update after a fresh install, but it might be worth it since I imagine the official ms isos to not have the updates I'm trying to remove already installed.
>>51622270
>I imagine the official ms isos to not have the updates I'm trying to remove already installed.
Should read "have" not "to not have."

i would also like to know of what this faggot asks
I just defragged my SSD this morning and since then I've noticed a huge improvement in my transfer speeds.
Why doesn't /g/ defrag their SSDs regularly?
Did you also try to transcode all your flacs to mp3 for further performance boosts?

>>51621954
I defrag mine every day anon
What are some problems that Windows 10 has? Let's push aside the privacy issues and focus on the other issues. I do use Windows 10 but I also appreciate some things about Linux and OSX.
For one, the DE is an inconsistent mess. Sure the latest update fixed some context menu colors but some are still a different shade of grey or just the usual white. The multiple settings programs are awful. Anything useful is usually under "additional settings" which just launches the old control panel program. The action center is fucking useless. It doesn't really server any purpose. The built-in "apps" are also pretty shit. I immediately uninstalled them all with a powershell script and replaced them.
Why are there both CMD and Powershell? Why are there no changelogs with updates? The add or remove programs tool is awful. It displayed "unavailable" next to a lot of programs.
Programming with anything other than Visual Studio is a mess. No native SSH either, although putty is pretty good. What do you dislike about your OS?
>>51621909
it doesn't have any
unless you consider having an awesome OS that just works and does whatever you could ever want to be a problem
>>51621909
Why would Windows have native SSH. It doesn't even have a native SSH server.
>>51621909
Not my OS anymore, but for starters:
Windows doesn't have a manual. No equivalent of man or info in Unix. There aren't any reference resources bundled with the system.
Googling up Technet or MSDN doesn't count.
>mom got me Surface Pro 4 as an early xmas gift
>i5, 128gb
save up, switch
>>51621870
return it and pay the difference for the 256GB model you fucking moron, she will never know for sure anyways.
haha, non-free software
enjoy your useless machine
Hey /g/. How would one make an absolutely anonymous call? No skype, because if they get a court order, they'll give up your usename. And also some caller ID's can see its a skype number.
I'm talking. Really. Anonymous.
go to nearest phone booth and call from there

interested
>>51621839
Yeah anon this is pretty much the only way to be "really. Really. Anonymous."

You realize this isn't SATA right? You have a board that supports NVMe right?
>>51621759
I have an X99A board, with a 5960x. I currently have the M.2 to U.2 adapter for such device.
