Are vidya programmers the best programmers?

Is your body ready for the wireless audio revolution? Because it's happening.

No thanks and I don't care how much they paid Apple to do this shit

Why do I care? I keep one good modern phone in my desk with the utilitarian gear i.e. you can take it apart with a philips, dual sim, dual sd, 3.5mm, mUSB, blah blah blah. Keep your flagship flagship, fine, but this isn't the first change to fuck you. That would have been the switch to proprietary usb mass storage.

why must life be suffering? why can't I get in the cool ones like VR goggles and TVs instead of the same shit over and over again?

where can i apply for this stuff?

Where are you applying to beta test this shit?
>>55010378
>>55010388
I mainly use Centercode's BetaBound. Unsub from all the bullshit software betas (total waste of time IMO).
Every once in a while you'll get invited to apply directly with a manufacturer on their own beta instance (company.centercode.com) and then you make a user and apply for tests there.
Then if you end up on the really good list at certain companies they just email you and ask if you want to test shit, no application required.
Even Chink Shit General isn't safe from poorly made Chinese counterfeits.

You are the best. Good thread incoming
thanks for good thread
lol chink shit general! who comes up with this stuff?
has anyone on /g/ been hacked?
Never. If you limit the scope of attack, then your chances of being attacked is much less likely.
How do people on this site end up getting hacked?

>With Bluetooth becoming increasingly important in our computer hardware these days, general improvements to the wireless standard directly impact products like the iPhone, Apple Watch, and more than ever wireless headphones.

Hope this means bluetooth headphones will finally transmit stereo 40.1Khz sample rate 1.4mbps WAV audio instead of encoding music to 96kbps bluetooth audio codec.

Intel Core2Quad Q9550
Asus GTX 580
4GB DDR2 RAM
Intel 520 SSD 180 GB

Corsair gave me bad ram but that might just be a rare thing
Also put the OS on the ssd

Twitter works because you engage with it all the time.
This won't work because you don't. You're not going to download and keep an app you don't use, even if it does warn you

doesnt look too bad. is that canary or a flag in release?
So I've been trying vim lately. I really see how it can be useful, but then I don't fucking get it. I don't need a list of key bindings, I have that. The problem is that none of that can be combined in a practical way that would be any faster than just using the mouse in a modern text editor. Examples of things that annoy me in vim:

>Backspace doesn't work in insert mode (might be a problem specific to my installation though)
Works fine on my version, might be caused by something else
>You can't use shortcuts to navigate in insert mode, so when you are writing code, and want to move to the end of the line, I need to do Ctrl+c, $, i, which is fucking spastic.
The End key still works, also Ctrl+c? why not Esc? and how Ctrl+c, one of the most common hotkeys spastic?
