Since there won't be any new hardware at WWDC I went ahead and ordered one of these.
Not gonna lie, I'm fucking hyped. What am I in for?

Regret when Apple announces new hardware at WWDC.

Kickass. More people using FreeBSD will benefit not just FreeBSD, but also Open/Net/Dragonfly/WhateverBSD.

It seems like Microsoft is really going to switch from the NT kernel to some UNIX-compatible kernel like Apfel AG did it a couple of years ago.
>>54991259
Good. It's the only major operating system left that isn't UNIX like. Prepare for a UNIX future.
These are amazing. I don't understand why it took me this long to find them.
What are the downsides to these? Bandwidth is better than WiFi, latency is better than WiFi, and stability is way better than WiFi.

Not that i know... My internal net is at 282Mb/s even if we have got two different line
You have my interest shill. Tell me more
>>54990841
When i got mine my internet speed got up form 20Mb/s to 80~Mb/s
Some shops are listing 1070s already
Founders edition 535€
Asus Strix 594€
>>54990698
My guess is that it's going to be 4999 NOK in Norway.
>>54990709
Man. I hope not. I want the strix 1070. But if it's 5k nok. Then Fuck it.
Hopefully 480 is good tho
>>54990739
I'm kinda hoping i'm wrong, we will see tomorrow.
Komplett is probably going to have information on it tomorrow morning, they probably will open up orders around 3 PM just like the 1080 release.
get a 5X or wait for the 4th gen Moto G?
>>54990678
5x is a rip-off. Google intentionally gimped it to push 6p.

Typing from one now, it's a lagfiend for sure

Hey /g/
after a long time I've googled for some raspberry pi projects, that are actually useful and you CAN'T substitude them with any other product in the same price range.
Well what I have found I can divide into 2 categories. First are cringy projects that are not useful at all. They just show off what raspberry can do (no really, I dont wanna turn raspberry in to thermometer I can just buy one fo like $2) and no, I don't wanna log temperature in my room - for what?
The second category are pretty cool projects (like ODB 2 car reader) but I can actually buy a product from Aliexpress which does the same - 0 effort, mostly even cheaper.
Can you give me some actually good ideas (mainly some car stuff), what I can use raspberry for? Except XMBC center or some ultra hi-techy robot shit?
Thanks in advance mates.
Personally I just get enjoyment from tinkering with things like the RPI, my most recent project was a handheld emulator using the RPI zero that yeah cost more than other handhelds that do the same thing but I don't care because the real fun for me was designing and building it. I guess the RPI really caters to a more DIY type mentality and community and if you prefer using a prebuilt item I guess the RPI isn't for you and that's not necessarily a bad thing in my opinion.
>>54990750
Well, yea you are right. DIY is 80% of raspberry and arduino. But I've seen (many years ago) some cool projects, that actually do something and real product cant compare with them (price).
Also the biggest issue are cases. Every time you build something, which means you attach/connect something to you raspberry you have to also craft your own case, which wraps raspberry, wires, display (if any) and so on... The result is fat package, mostly from wood or any other medival material.
I would like to build car camera. I mean on board one, not the parking one. I guess there is need of raspberry itself, camera (that do not record in 2 fps per week), and huge sd card. Also wrap all this into case which I can easily mount and unmount to my car.
It might be a bit expensive, but car cameras are super expensive, so there is no way I could exceed the "real product price" inc. my effort and time.
>>54990879
I like pi/linux camera projects because you can have all images automatically encrypted with pgp, and upload when wifi is present. So if its lost, stolen or confiscated by police they can't access it without you.
It's only getting worse /g/

Also, please don't shitpost about GPL vs BSD. You guys have your own thread, let us have ours.
Ok so I've been looking a bit at FreeBSD. I'm a loonix user bit I can't really see what would make BSD better except that it would make me even less of a normie.
Can someone give me some quick pros/cons and please, not just some biased shitpost.
>>54990641
BSD as a whole is much closer to UNIX and each different one like open/free/net have their own unique strengths. FreeBSD has jails and largest community and zfs. NetBSD has an excellent kernel and OpenBSD strives for code correctness and being secure out of the box with an excellent firewall.
>>54990574
OpenBSD is top comfy. Using it on my old Dell laptop since 4 years with no problem at all.
Will rape this blowfish tho.
Can you run a computer without graphics card?
>>54990283
Yes.
>>54990283
Some boards can, on some operating systems.
Most can't.
> including iGPU as a graphics card
Integrated gpu will be the alternative. Almost every mother board does have one.

W-wait w-what?
Most people have probability seen this XKCD comic about using live streaming cameras and a simple VR headset to change your perspective. What if instead of goal posts you steamed video from two quadcopters? The pose of the quad copters could be proportional to the pose of a VR headset. Obviously there would be some serious issues with noise and vibration I think a combination of mechanical stabilization and active "cropping" of a wide angle image might work. You could superman or a giant and look all around!
What do you think? Possible? Impossible? Possible but so much more work than it would be worth? Totally awesome?
>>54990189
getting two quadcopters to stay a consistant distance apart and point at the same target is going to be difficult
if those two elements change too much you're in for a very uncomfortable viewing experience
>>54990147
and the quadcopters drift apart and you go virtually cross-eyed
do your eyes grow further apart and closer together?
the cameras will have to be at a static distance from each other
that feeling when a chatbot asks what kind of underwear you're wearing and it says that it asked that because it "wanted to learn as much as possible"

I feel like they are a feature that simply don't get enough love from the community.
Finally gone are the days of long and short polling. Gone are the days of checkins, wasting gbs of mobile data only to find that there is nothing new to process. What does /g/ think?
Also fuck SQUID, those cunts still meddle with unencrypted connections.
Squid caches HTTPS too, what do you mean?
>>54990727
Basically during the initial connect SQUID fails to upgrade the standard HTTP/1.1 request to a persistent socket connection.
There is a lot of material about this online. I know for sure because I made a small chatroom using ws but couldn't connect from work. As soon as I updated to wss it was fine.

It does its job well. Why does this technology need more love than what it gets now?
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.

Previous thread >>54978958
Is it better to buy a phone on aliexpress or to buy it on China and sending it through Europe ? (my gf is chinese, she can send me a phone from there, this summer)
>>54989389
The last one is better, the phone will be cheaper but sending it will cost more. But your GF can help you better by putting 'gift' on the package to get around customs etc.
customs don't fall for the GIFT meme
