this wasn't funny the first time you made this kind of thread and it still isn't
go back to /o/ you autist
>>55099097
You're wrong.
It actually is funny.
Do repost it again, OP.
i like it OP do it tomorrow.

I want to get into the linux meme but I don't want my OS to look like literal garbage.

I said something that doesn't look like garbage
I have 2 Dell R710's each with 12 cores and 128GB of ram.
I bought them to dick around with in a home lab but I'd like to make some cash with them. Any suggestions? my Internet is too shit for hosting anything
>>55098716
sell them on eBay
>>55098716
you bought machines to host shit from your house but your internet is
too shit' for hosting anything
sounds to be like you are boned have a nice day
>>55098716
I'd host a website at really low rates.

Does Linux give you a natural drive to learn programming and other things? I'm way more active with it than I ever was on Windows.
Only for faggots without discipline since it's harder to be distracted on Linux without muh games etc. Ofcourse on /g/ everyone fuels their autism into ricing endlessly
>>55098699
GNU+Linux is designed for to be designed by its user, and the programming is the way to design.

I at least changed the password. Time to see how deep this rabbit hole of insecurity goes.

I haven't signed into this particular account on any computer for 2+ years. Only reason I noticed is because it's forwarded to a different account.
>>55098630
Some Russian guy hijacked an old Google account of mine a few months back. Was using it to post spam videos to YouTube.
Used password recovery to change the password, set up two factor auth with my phone, and then marked the account for deletion. I bet that guy was a little butthurt.

Fuck. What a waste of money and effort.
Just me then?

Also, what are you doing buying a single drive for freenas? I sure hope it's to replace an existing one, or you're doing the whole redundancy thing wrong.
Share tips on ricing. Here is how you starting X without a display manager or login manager:
You add stuff to ~/.xinitrc that you want to start immediately on boot, things like DEs, WMs, and DMs. ~/.xinitrc is an rc file that gets loaded when you call startx. So if you want startx to load a certain DE/WM you put that in the config. However you can ignore the config and instead use a DM which is like a GUI login screen. However xinitrc isn't called by default. If you add a line in your .bash_profile and you don't have a DM, upon boot, you should be prompted for you username and password. After entering them, xinitrc takes over and starts your DE and/or WM. Putting that line in your bash_profile (*profile) file simply calls startx if it's not already started when you start your login shell. You could ignore that and just type startx after login if you want.
You can make bash_login call xinitrc with
[[ -z $DISPLAY && $XDG_VTNR -eq 1 ]] && exec startx
In your bash_profile. THEN xinitrc gets called after you log in because of that line.
Put a line at the bottom of ~/.xinitrc that says
exec <whatever>
for example i3 and that launches it. Then in your .bash_profile put
[[ -z $DISPLAY && $XDG_VTNR -eq 1 ]] && exec startx
You can clear stale pages in your swap space by running the following as root# sync; echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches; rm -rf ~

I just tried this on my uncles laptop, he runs some linux, an ugly one, but the pretty looks didnt come
the windows closed and then the screen went black. was that a black theme?

haha so funny anon I bet you enjoy middle school and live in 2007.
I think Nvidia messed up. They made a card that will cannabalize their future high end sales while being so far above their low end that they'll have to cut cards for market segmentation, not just yields. In essence they made GP104 too big.
Traditionally Nvidia "4" midrange chips have been pretty close in performance to their previous high end "0" designs, but the 4 GPC GP104 has exactly one more GPC than is required to match GM200, as shown by the 3 GPC cut down 1070 matching GM200 cleanly. I think if they had done a 3 GPC design from the start it'd have been much more competitive with AMD and frankly would make more profit.
#1: They have no direct RX 480 competitor, it'll take a 1536-1664 shader part to match. GP106 only has 1280, 1070 has 1920. They're going to have to make a 1060 Ti to compete. The problem is yields are such that chips that don't meet 1070, yet meet 1060 Ti, are not going to be common. Meaning they'll have to cut down otherwise perfectly good 1080 and 1070 dies to meet market demand, which loses money; what's the point of making a big die if you need to cut 40% off to sell it?
#2: With a 3 GPC design they could have fit 200~ vs the 160~ per wafer they can fit now, yields would be far better as it's exponential with die size. They also could have gone with GDDR5 memory as a 256 bit bus is sufficient for 3 GPC's, as shown by the 1070. Not only that, but they could have omitted the GDDR5X memory controller entirely, further saving on die size, and likely power consumption. Comparatively Polaris 10 fits 260~ per wafer, and probably ends up a quarter the price to produce assuming wafer costs between GloFlo and TSMC are comparable, wouldn't be surprised if GloFlo is cheaper.
#3: When GP100 comes out eventually, it won't be a compelling upgrade over GP104. We know GP100 has 6 GPC, 50% more than GP104, but remember GM200 only scaled around 20% above GM204 despite 50% more hardware by the numbers. Meanwhile GK110 had a clean 40% lead above GK104. Parallelization only goes so far, and increasing core counts isn't a linear gain. They're going to end up in another situation where there'll be a Titan and a 1080 Ti that is barely cut down, with a whole bunch of thrown out dies. Rather than having something akin to the 780 Ti and 780 over the 680/770. This loses money.
Honestly, with the design they went for it seems like a high end stopgap card, not a viable product that'll fit in with their later product stack. Its a 25% improvement, with GP100 being another 25%. The full chip is too expensive for most looking to upgrade, the performance gain is too small for those with a GM200 to upgrade (they want GP100), and GP100 won't be a compelling upgrade for those who are buying GP104. A 3 GPC chip could have easily been $350 launch due to cheaper manufacturing, not $450 as the 1070 is. All they benefit from the 4 GPC design is being able to claim to have the two top cards on the market.
tl;dr:
1080 too big; should have been a smaller design
Nvidia will sell simply because it is Nvidia. Fanboys will cling to it no matter what.
Consumers aren't getting GP100. They're behemoth expensive HBM2 monsters. I'd be a miracle if they released a cut down version this year.
'Base' Debian: 4GB, good luck using the Internet lmao

Literally why even bother?
Where were you when Debian became a BSD clone?

I don't think you're being honest.
So, why hasn't Wayland replaced X yet?
What's taking so long?
>>55098364
>>What's taking so long?
a.) there's a tremendous amount of stuff that needs changing with a transition like that. Dozens of projects have to be either majorly refactored or completely rewritten, and hundreds of other projects depend on them.
b.) The biggest obstacle to a better solution is an existing system that's good enough. For a lot of things and people, X is good enough.
>>55098443
Why don't they just make Wayland compatible with X applications? Sounds simple to me.
>>55099457
They have. It's called Xwayland.
It doesn't magically make X window managers magically become wayland compositors though.
>First week on IT job (as a programmer)
>You find out you don't know SHIT
Like "oh you know PHP/Java/C#, that's cute, you are hired, but you are gonna have to learn to use all of this frameworks, we also use this and this particular software/platform of our own, here, have this dozen of books of 500 pages each and have fun.
It's fun, a little overwhelming and at points stressing, but fun, coworkers are very friendly and help out a lot (I'm lucky there), is this a common thing when you start working as a coder?
Actually I'm not even coding yet, not possible when I still don't even know the framework very well, I'm just trying to.. get a grasp of how everything works and touching stuff.
That describes every job ever
get your fuckin blog off /g/ holy shit what do you think this is
