I've had some problems with the menus taking way too long to come up, for example control panel is slow as shit for me. And it fucked with my ASIO4All drivers, making it crash every time I tried to change a setting. I recently switched to Windows 7, and I'm feeling great.

With all the praise Chromecast receives, does it have some actual uses that aren't "display shitty apps on your TV"?
I don't see a single application for this that a cable couldn't do better.

Does the Chromecast have uses that aren't exactly what it is used for?
Why, no Bob, it does exactly what it says it does, which is display shitty apps on your TV.
It ALSO, as an extension of doing exactly what it's advertised to do, allows you to display any OS desktop that chrome supports on your TV without needing a cable at all.

Yes there is.

Yeah sure, so when an update comes they can put the switch back to "send telemetry" and suddenly they have months worth of data on the user.

You think I'm joking? Not the first time they did this, see pic related.

They just put in two switches.

Repost:

I uploaded my language in its current state at: http://neetco.de/languagedev/language

1. There are design issues with the typenodes (MNode in pmf.h/cpp) which makes the code bloated, error-prone and leaky.
2. The primitives only work with int types. Beside, they're handled ad-hoc and bypass most of the code generation, which is also bug-prone and oogleh.
3. I haven't tested that it actually produces valid executables (but the llvm looks OK).
4. printf-and-continue-until-segfault is used instead of proper erroring,

build.sh provides the commands to run to build the entire thing. Only the last command is required if the .y (bison file) and .l (flex file) aren't touched.

The code is mostly written as almost-throwaway code so it's not pretty, but it should be understandable and workable.

The language's syntax is in the .y file. There is support for if-then, if-then-else, while, set!, let, lambda, type declaration (might not work, not sure) and function calls. Moreover, any symbol can be placed infix to represent an infix call without ambiguity under LALR(1):
let fn = lambda (x, y) x + y;
fn(3, 4) fn fn(8, 9);
\\should output the llvm IR for "7 + 17"

There are some simple to correct syntax flaws such as require ; after {} in if and while statements.

llvm_backend.h/cpp does code generation. No passmanager is used, so it outputs unoptimized code, which is especially useful for debugging.

I like the base syntax (beside some flaws that need to be addressed, as outlined above) so far, but the codebase is starting to be hard to work with. Next up is probably, implementing multiple dispatch and type translation (e.g. <number> = <u>(<long>, <double>) should unify the union type, not the <number> type, with whatever argument is used in a function call).

Any pull request, patches, or suggestions would be appreciated, especially in how to cleanup the code.

Pay attention to meeeee!-edition.

One of our customers is the largest television broadcasting compnany in our country. So we build companion apps around their shows and an VOD platform.
For some reason the clients tests on the day of the release and expect a new bugless build the same day.

Other business laptops are also welcome in /tpg/ (e.g. Dell Latitude/Precision, HP EliteBook/ZBook).

If you're looking for purchase advice, READ THE BUYERS GUIDE FIRST. Then post, stating budget and requirements (e.g. size and performance).
Don't buy anything OTHER THAN T, X AND W SERIES if you want the Real ThinkPad Experience™

Recommended models:
T420 - 14", normal size
X220 - 12.5", lightweight

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.

Why are ThinkPads so expensive?
Tell me the cheapest ThinkPad I can buy that is not shit.

It's taunting me. It's teasing me.

I'm contemplating going back to university, and I'm going to need a laptop for that purpose (and some light gaming on the side). Now I could get a cheapo Thinkpad (x220), or I could get a SP4 as the perfect OneNote bitch. Vastly more expensive, but I think it'd be worth it.
As long as it's actually capable of lasting for 3 years +.

What about a used x240?
>>
>>51573350
It's less about the performance and power, more about its usefulness in this situation. I love OneNote and plan on basically keeping all of the information, notes and so on in it. A Thinkpad would definitely suck at that, as it'd either limit me to Windows or switching to Evernote. Plus I'd lose the pen input.

what about a shitty used thinkpad?

So it's time for me to find a new monitor and I'm in search for a 24" 144hz monitor under $350. I'm stuck between these two that have been recommended to me and I'm not sure which one to get.

>BenQ XL2411Z (Amazon has it for $313, Newegg has it for $249 for some reason)

>ASUS VG248QE (Amazon has it for $209, huge price difference compared to the Benq)

Which would you recommend?
