hey /g/ I'm going into uni this fall and they had jump start program that lets you take CS 101 over the summer
we had the first day today and all the computers in the lab were mac's. red flag number one
then I found out we'd mostly be writing in python and doing OOP
I asked the professor if this was really meant to be a serious introduction to computer SCIENCE (on a mac ffs....) and he said "I'm starting to think this program inst for you"
now I'm worried he's going to be bias against me for the rest of the semester
how bad did I fuck up?
>>55355922
It's going to take some work, but you should end up okay.
Check the class syllabus, and see when your professor's office ours are. Go in, and explain to him how severe your autism is. Most schools have strict disability policies, and he should be able to work around your retarded ass.
For fuck's sake, it's CS 101. You're basic concepts of programatic flow, variables, functions, and the like. You don't need to be some l33t haxx0r using haskell on a Linux from-scratch box.
OS X will give you a nice Unix environment, and Python is a competent-enough language to learn the basics.
Once you know the basics, you can take harder classes that make you deal with memory management and the like.
Fucking idiot.
>>55355974
but don't you think the macs are a red flag?
I'm worried I might have signed up for a less than serious program
>>55356063
What would you prefer, Sun boxes?
OS X is fine for learning most things.
If you were serious about CS, you'd set up a dev environment on your rig that fit your needs. Many programs have a computer lab for the poor pajeets that can't afford a decent machine.
Which school is this at?
why is windows media player bad?
>>55355918
I remember even back when it was good using winamp over it.
It's not. I wish they didn't take out the advanced tag editor but overall it's a fine media player.
>>55355918

ayy i had the same CPU and motherboard on my last build.
cheers
>>55355912
I like the hard drive setup. I plan on doing the same thing. Windows SSD, Linux SSD, shared 1-2TB. Can't go wrong.
Which area of programming has the least Pajeets and incompetent hipsters and so on?
Well it is not embedded software because boy are there pajeets around here
>no Pajeets or incompetent hipsters or women
firmware
algorithms
>>55355841
Right
>>55355864
Wrong
OP, you probably want to go into banking and insurance.
This following will appear full screen on your computer IF YOU UPDATE TO KB3173040

>>55355698
well aren't I glad I'm not an idiot?
>>55355698
so it will. and so i will select do not notify me again

if gpus compute faster than cpus like this rx 480 by Amd which computes faster than any other technology, why dont they only use gpus on motherboards instead of slow intel cpus? i just dont understand.
>>55355697
They do different kinds of computing. GPUs have a huge number of weaker specialised cores, as opposed to CPUs that have a small number of general purpose and powerful cores. Writing software that can run on a GPU is generally more complicated.
>>55355802
>seriously replying
holy fuck
Waiting for someone to install Linux on his RX480...

My hands. MY HANDS! Oh God, my hands have just exploded! The pain, the indescribable pain I am currently feeling torments every corner of my mind! Lord, help me, for it is so agonising! Don't do this, please, anyone. Don't listen to OP!
Lets put down the memes for half a second (please).
What was this for and why did only one ever come out? Was there really no market for this? Wasn't the performance for this really good given its size (kek)? Was the price point too high?
Was there some other reason this was just a one off?
It was just a prank.
I've a nano. Really great for small form factor PCs. Currently inside my node 202 and I'm definitely satisified. I bought it when the price dropped from 650 to 450, still kinda pricey but definitely fit my needs.
The R9 Nano had a huge market. But the price premium for HBM was too costly. At the same cost of an R9 Fury it was a no brainer. This card could've easily been a 300-400 hit card and it would've been amazing.
Will we get cancer cause of phones?

Not with current usage, but with time we'll learn to screw ourselves over.
Also look at the differences between ionizing radiation and electromagnetic radiation, if you're into this.

How come my left nut hurts and as it happens I always keep muh phone in muh left pocket?!
Didn't see a single RX 480 thread.
Opinions?
Lackluster or a power cluster?
>>55355521
fails ATV and PCI-E specification.

>fried motherboard with i5 2500k, refuses to boot (CPU led is on) despite working flawlessly for 4 years with 90% up time
>planned to hold out until Zen
>mfw I have to buy 6700k
What the fuck Intel
>have to buy 6700k
anon it's absolutely FUCKING retarded spending 350+ dollers on a fucking electronic chip
i'm still using a 7 year old phenom 955be, i'd love to finally upgrade it but i refuse to become the intel good goy just yet
buy a mobo from ebay that will support your 2500k, it's still a very capable cpu, don't give in to jewery
>>55357190
i dont have paypal and i need a mobo which supports uefi and the only mobos supporting my cpu that got it is sold out
use a raspberry pi until Zen comes out
I need an alternative to anonfiles.
It needs to be accessible without plugins, it needs to be anonymous with no accounts, and it needs to upload files of every size and for an indeterminate time.
>>55355461
use a raspi as SFTP, also read the sticky you stupid fuck, we have a small/stupid questions thread
>>55355483
>raspi
Your idea is bad and you should feel bad, especially for telling me to go away. Why the fuck do you even have this board if you don't discuss helpful technology?
>>55355519
please tell me why my ideas bad
I'm in the middle of a live rated chess game online when windows just shuts down and decides to update itself. After fucking forever it comes back to this blue screen and the background just pulses for 5 minutes while it does literally nothing
I'm L I T E R A L L Y removing windows and never looking back
>all your files are exactly as you left them
Is this some kind of practical joke
You should've 1: disabled the update
Or 2: updated
Or 3: not have used windows you pathetic retard
>>55355420
but anon
all your files are exactly where you left them
>rated chess game
>online
Cuck
>it's still $1000
lol
>>55355401
It's $700 now.
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1179696-REG/sony_dpts1_digital_paper_system.html
>>55355408
still $500 too expensive
>mfw those things did not become mainstream, and I still have to print out all papers I need to WORK with, since tablets are shit and too small and this fucking thing is too expensive and will probably become an abandoned paperwheigt in a few years time thanks to closed OS
so if I pirate a game and install it on a separate drive and run it with wine is it possible to get a bad virus with it?
>>55355330
Yes.
>>55355338
there has to be some way I can safely pirate without getting BTFO
>>55355364
Virtual Machine with pci-e passthrough and no internet. Maybe.
