How exactly do you plan to protect yourselves from zero-day exploits, and browser security holes, etc?
By not using wangblows.

AV isn't going to protect you from zero-day exploits.

Thanks for making a thread m8!
Overall pretty nice. The keyboard is kinda bad but if it works there is no sense in spending more. What kind of music do you make?
Looks comfy Opiee, 8/10

>What kind of music do you make?
Don't really make anything official. Just kinda dick around in Ableton once in awhile.

Does it matter what brand of RAM i get if i have one stick of 4gb and i want to buy another 4gb (same speed) to put it in dual channel? Does latency speed matter in that decision?
>>45637605
Brand doesn't matter but memory timing does.
Are there any prepaid cash cards that don't require real name/ssn to use?
Don't mind why I ask. Just curious tbh.

How long is this company going to stay in business?
Is PC gayming going up or down?
>buying anything from jewshack
they overprice everything and have a fucking terrible stock. I'm honestly surprised they're still in business. A lot of local ones are closing.

this just in! retail employees don't take their job seriously!
So people keep giving me broken laptops, and so far i've been able to repair about 6/8 of them.
Problem is, I don't know what the fuck to do with all of them now. I'm literally drowning in laptops.
>>45642070
throw them out
give me one
Throw them on Ebay and let the bidding start at $0.01 + shipping.

What's your alarm clock? Do you use a special app? Which one?
I've tried Glimmer (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vuxia.glimmer&hl=en) which I loved except in the free version you only get two alarms - and I need several to wake me up. Recommended otherwise.
>>45622756
>Using an alarm clock
Pleb
It's got that silent sweep thing where the seconds hand glides instead of ticking.
>>45622756
I'm actually thinking about buying one of those light alarm clocks, that wake you up as if the sun was rising.
Mac owner for about 3 months now.
I notice there are a lot of Macfag vs. anti-Mac posts on here. As someone who's fairly impartial (I own one Apple product, the mac I'm typing this on, and nothing else) I feel I can give a pretty decent verdict on these computers. So here I go.
My verdict: these are very nice machines but somewhat overpriced.
I'll go over some common pro-Mac and anti-Mac claims and why I think they're crap.
> Pro-Mac: Just werks!
I don't think this is really a valid point. The OS isn't any easier than Windows. They both "just werk." Viruses are not that hard to avoid in Windows. Also none of my Windows machines in the past 10 years have had issues with crashing or whatever.
> Anti-mac: It's overpriced by $1000 or more!
Macs are overpriced but not by the huge margin anti-Mac fags say. It's true you can get entry level MacBook pro specs for under $500, but computers aren't ONLY about specs. Macs have a very nice keyboard, screen, and trackpad. They're also unibody so you don't get that issue with some laptops where they crack at the seems after a while. I'd say the typical mac is overpriced by about $300, but it's not the gigantic markup the anti-macfags claim by disingenuously only focusing on specs.
> Pro-Mac: huge battery life!
This isn't because of a better battery, it's because of how macs handle idle time. They effectively just shut off after a while.
> Anti-Mac: You can't do __________ In OSX.
I haven't noticed any lack of important functionality in OSX. This seems like a complaint that only hobbyists would care about.
I've had ample time to get used to the operating system
desktop macs are way more overpriced, macbooks are well worth it
My overall verdict is that macs are pretty cool but not as cool as Macfags claim. The physical hardware is very, very nice. They are probably the best laptops you can get in terms of how the physical elements are designed. I especially like how the screen isn't "wobbly" like many laptop screens are, it seems they've gone the extra mile in terms of making sure the screen stays solidly in place. The software, on the other hand, is nothing to write home about. I don't think OSX has any obvious advantages over Windows. Also office is generally better than the Mac Productivity suite (with the exception of Keynote). I also feel that Yosemite has certain bugs that are for some reason never talked about, like sometimes the screen will turn black for no reason when I'm trying to boot up.
Overall I think macs are good. Not really fantastic or amazing or anything, but good. I'd buy another one if I got a deal on it. I'd probably never buy one brand new and at full list price. You need to take at least 2 or 3 hundred bucks off the price of these things before they're worth it IMO.

Pro tip: only losers argue about someone else's OS choice and computer choice. I never waste time arguing about that.
And considering how full of creeps /g/ is, that would be an even worse idea. I've learned never to take advice from /g/: it's either bad, severely biased or incomplete.
For example, if you ask /g/ Windows 8.1 is total crap, it's unusable, metro is crap, bloat, etc. I installed 8.1, configured it as I wanted it, and it has no bloat, no crap, no botnet, local user, etc. It's perfectly usable, as long as you don't invest too much attention to how an OS is, which is what losers do, since they don't have anything else in their life but their computers.
Give a valid reason why you're not using MATE for it surely is the best desktop graphical environment ever created.
I may install mate one day, but now I don't have time to play with DEs
