There's not except if you want to lock yourself into MS's ecosystem by depending on their closed formats and if you want to share all your personal data they'll share with their business partners and government organizations as long they think is in "good faith" with no warrants.
I've just realized people don't like QR codes because they don't know how to use them lol.
>>55253401
Those with half a brain don't like them because they can be malicious.

Yes, we know everything is already from China but in here we discuss the no/low-name cheap shit you see on Gearbest, AliExpress, eBay and similar sites.

Hello
3rd for chink quality bait
http://www.gearbest.com/fishing-gear/pp_4145.html
What the fuck!
I been avoiding taxes while using DHL thanks to Gearbest declaring everything at 50% of the value, but my last 3 DHL packages came with the real value declared and I had to pay taxes on the 3 packages.
Anyone that ordered in the last week using DHL shipping got the real value also declared? if they have stopped declaring 50% of the value, this is a said day for chink shopping.
How's the firmware between TP-LINK and Netgear? Is Netgear good, or bloated gamertrash? The Netgear R7800 is just the next hardware revision of the TP-LINK C2600, but is it worth the $100 increase?
>>55253220
I haven't used that netgear router, but all netgear routers i have had except the WNR3500L were shit with stock firmware.
>>55253220
I see no reason in using stock tp-link or netgear firmware over DD-WRT\tomato\openWRT. So if you think it is same hardware - buy cheapest and just use bestWRT
can i delete any of these?
You can delete all of them.
>>55253203
Yeah, if you want shit to break.
>>55253203
You can delete them all, but since you have no way of knowing which program will require them you might break part of your system's functionality.

I'm trying to set up keepass or some variant so I can have it running integrated in firefox in linux and use the database on android. I thought this would be pretty easy but firefox integration seems a fucking nightmare. Why is it so complicated?
I thought keepassx would be good enough but apparently the firefox addon for it requires you to add system files and according to the addon page requires keepass2 as well. Tried to install keepass2 just because I thought maybe it would be easier but no, a terrible interface which I can't even read because of whatever theme...

i dont compelety follow what do you mean by firefox integration
i use autotype on firefox and works just fine
>>55252729
>i use autotype on firefox and works just fine
What do you mean by that?
By firefox integration I meant that there is some way to make firefox autocomplete the login/password. I've been using pass and there is a addon so you can display logins, copy/paste etc all from within the firefox menu but with keepass it seems you have to do it all from the separate keepass program window, pretty much how lastpass integrates in to the browser itself. It seems a bit cumbersome to me.
>>55252865
Keepassx does autocompletion of the password and username fields for you.
I just use alt+tab to switch between windows, CTL+B and CTL+Cto copy username and password respectively, and CTL+V to paste

Where is my diamond age?
Where is molecular manufacturing?
Where are diamond supertowers?
Where are vacuum dirigibles?
Where are interactive textbooks that contain a billion core supercomputer that immerses the child in the learning experience via clever narratives?
Where is molecular engineering CAD software?
Where are nanotechnology engineers?
...but I have my smartphone with facebook and whatsapp and whatever. All bits, zero atoms. Humanity failed at material progress. "Engines of Creation" were 30 years ago.
>>55252592
>the next century
You already posted the answer, you're just salty you were born too early.
>>55252681
I believe we could have much more progress in molecular manufacturing now if the funding weren't derailed into chemistry in 2000s.
I also note that the meaning of "technology" changed over time and come to mean "Computers and software". Sadly there is little progress outside these two areas, and even computing hardware progress experiences a slowdown. The moore's law is officially dead now.
>vacuum dirigibles
Well, that's a stupid idea.
So, mi PC (Laptop) is going slow and every day passes it goes slower. My PC is pic related a Win 7 SP1.
Already tried:
>CCleaner (Shite)
>Disc Defrag (barely makes any difference)
>System Restoration (no longer have back ups)
>Clean Hardware (no difference)
I wanted to try to restore PC to factory settings but i need a Win 7 disc which I haven't got.
Also i heard that i could change my OS to a Linux based which was way...

save up for a new PC fampai.
A dual core pentium is garbage and has been for years.
Clean Windows 8.1 install.
Uses less resources than 7.
>>55252571

Updating to Win 10 would be a good idea?

I'm still running OS X 10.6 but need to use a newer version of OS X to run Xcode and use Swift. Is it worth installing the latest version of OS X side-by-side or am I safe to just overwrite 10.6 and do a direct upgrade?
>>55252528
Define safe
Obviously you have backup of important files right? So are you talking about how well your mac will run it?
>>55253699
Yeah, I have backups.
I'm wondering both about any side effects of going straight from 10.6 and skipping everything in between and how well a Mid-2010 MBP will run everything.

is an IPS worth it? I do photography and video work, but I dont make any money from it yet. So its not really a business. i have a 27" right now with YUV that I bought in 2011 that's been running ok

>ideal color profile set
>everyone looks at it with srgb and complains the colors are off
>>55252338
IPS is pretty good, just bought 23'' a few days ago and i gotta say that it really looks great.
Just make sure to pick your monitor with a non-reflective surface, unless you want your image to look like ass.
