Before I start, I know I suck for owning a Mac.
I want to play Star Wars Battlefront 2 on my Macbook Pro, but I have a question. I will be doing it by using Wine, then downloading Steam for Windows and buying the game through that. I found a separate guide to setup an Xbox One controller on Mac, but I am wondering if that will work through Wine and into the game. Would it be the same as setting up a controller on a PC and running it on Steam for Windows?
>>51499460
just dual boot windows like a normal person
>>51499460
Macbook = unlimited fps
>>51499460
even if you pay for windows its worth it to have access to that on a mac
Alright /g/ I started learning about computers last week and I've built myself a computer to buy. Currently using my grandmother's old iMac from 2008 (3.02 Ghz dual core, 2gb ram, 512mb vram)
Tell me how I fucked up.

Whoa that was easy
looks like a nice rig, I'd drop the Windows license though. You can either not use Windows (preferable) or get a legit key by pirating an old version and upgrading for free
>>51499307
What version would I need to pirate?

Nice, OP. Wish I had a qt like that on my friends list.
I've been using Ubuntu for a few months now and I've gotta say its aim towards a user friendly design just makes it more difficult to use when ironing out certain bugs or issues. Are there any distros you guys know of that work well for small pc workloads that have as much support as ubuntu?
>>51499276
mint
xubuntu
debian based are the easiest to go for because since ubuntu became popular, most mainstream devs and lunix fags just support that one.
>>51499276
Maybe, Arch.
>>51499276

If you could create the perfect Linux distro /g/, which distro would it be built on, which DE, WM and package manager would it have?
>Distro - Debian
>DE - XFCE
>WM - i3
>Package manager - Portage
I'd use Windows because I'm not autistic.

Custom machine with 1kb CPU running a 3d core configuration of 40 cores @3ish GHz each using 8 of said CPUs in a single case with separate enclosures for the ram, storage, and gpus. The whole purpose of the machine would be simulating neural networks and use a Linux that basically only exists to give a skeleton that a reward/punish system for supervised learning could be built on. The entire machine is allowed to develop its own interface with the only intervention from operators being punishment or rewards at amounts...

Debian with the DNF package manager would be cool. I like Gnome.

Hey I want setup a virtual Windows 98 so I can play games like Exile, Might and Magic, Fury 3, etc.
What is best way to accomplish this?
Qemu or PCem?
I am on Linux and I have a high end system.
>>51498889
pcem is easier to setup because g u i
>>51498889
Fury 3, holy crap that takes me back.
Physically superior and ruthlessly aggressive, a single troop of bions could eliminate the inhabitants of a planet within days.
>>51498918
I am not really worried about that, I am quite skilled with Linux and have Windows 10 running with PCI Passthrough on Qemu already. I am more worried about performance. How does performance compare?

What is the best free antivirus on windows?
MSE/Defender
ESET Nod 32, of course this is if you keep feeding it free trial details every two weeks.
>>51498696
I second this. If you are blocking ads and unwanted scripts like you should be, and you have Malwarebyes for active scans, you want something with a very small footprint that guaranteed is not trying to fuck you over because they want you to buy their PRO version. MSE/Defender is just that. Even if it is a bad antivirus, in my opinion it's better to have strong defense up front and have an out of the way AV in the back than to have an intrusive resource hogging AV that acts like malware running around doing what it wants.
![LG_G4_vs._Nexus_6_hero[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/s7e4VO0.jpg "LG_G4_vs._Nexus_6_hero[1].jpg")
I'm having a hard time deciding on a new unlocked phone to buy. This is everything I care about in both of these phones.
LG G4
-$400 on amazon
-expandable storage
-removable battery
-root yes
-xposed yes
-no fingerprint(meh)
-cm13 nightlies
Nexus 6 64gb
-$400 on amazon
-stock android
-android doze
-google fi
-root yes
-xposed yes
-no fingerprint(meh)
-amoled screen (blacker blacks, turn of pixelss)
Processors have plateaued and are both very similar. Both have fast charging. Anything I've missed?
Have LG4. Really like it but it's kinda large. The camera is great though
>>51498752
I can deal with large. That's why I am really considering the Nexus 6. It is less expensive than the 5X and it seems like it is a better deal.
>>51498628
>cm13 nightlies
Since when? I have an LG G4 and I love it but I'm pretty sure nobody has gotten cm on it yet?
That said, I recently bought and returned on Amazon a Nexus 6 because it was just too fucking big. Went back to my G4. Better camera, back buttons are great once you adjust, you'll wonder why everyone doesn't do that.
What do I look for in a good 'gaming' monitor?
So far I've complied this list of minimum requirements:
>Minimum 120hz
>1-2ms response time
>HDMI input
>16:9
>Minimum 24"
>Under $350
What else should I be looking for? Any opinions on which monitor is the best?
>>51498445
A fucking higher-than-1080p resolution.
So 1440p.
Probably G- or Freesync if you play Quakelikes or shit like that.
>>51498445
There isn't anything good if you put such an absurdly low price tag as a requirement.
>>51498559
desu im only using it for PS4 as i play destiny.
1080+ resolutions will be upscaled and i dont want that also out of budget
Is this true /g/?
Is there an attacker community?
>>51498266
>we do not forget
What is that screenshot from? Looks kind of cool.
And sure there are but they probably aren't public. There were 4 literal autists at my highschool that had a little attacking group. They ended up finding an excel spreadsheet with everyone's grades, addresses, emergency contact info, etc and the cops got involved. The thing is they didn't advertise what they did, I only knew about them because I was friends with the least autist.
My point is: Yes such groups exist, but any that actually have members who know what they're doing probably aren't...

CISCO training, probably for a cert.
Attacker community probably refers to Hackforums, which is filled with skids and skid-enablers. They don't consider themselves attackers, though, much less an "attacker community". It's just a scare term.
What is the fastest, slimmest version of Linux possible (with GUI)?
>>51498178
Gentoo
Gentoo or Arch with some lightweight wm like i3
>>51498178
Ubuntu
apparently the 128gb version can't be kept in stock for more then an hour a day and is again shaping up to be another huge success for apple.
a $1000 tablet /g/. a $1000 tablet.
My Surface Pro costs the same and does more and better.
I'm more interested in Shoko.

>>51498200
Surface Pro is a cheap plastic chunky shit with crap OS that's collecting your keystrokes for sale to any of the alphabet agency.
PC/android fags are the most stubborn fedoralords I swear.
