Which /g/ memes did you fall for in 2015?
>>52167734
Surprisingly - none. I've saved a shit ton of money, though, which was my plan. Feels good, breh.
I AM THE MEME
List of memes I fell for:
Spent $350 on a 1 tb SSD ------> Result = Data keeps fading (constantly need to clone my drive to keep up)
Spent $600 on a 970 SLI setup ------> Result = 1 980ti is faster
Installed Linux ------> Result = Literally nothing to do on Linux
2015 is the last year i'm falling for memes.
Bought a memepad
>>52167734
Windows
Just musk my shit up
>>52167824
I use Linux as a hobby not as a serious OS, Ubuntu works fantastically though. My main computers run OSX and Windows, they are reliable and work when I need them to.
>>52167824
Don't know how you fell for the 970 SLI, I've been calling people retarded for dual 970 and SLI in general for years.
>>52167957
Is getting a 970 on intentions of running a single card then finding a new 970 for $200 on eBay a year later a bad move?
>>52167957
This has been going on since the 2*560ti beats 580 meme.
>>52168113
Of course you fucking retard
>tfw the Linux and no social media makes were the best choices I've made in my entire life
I'm so focused
>>52167824
What the fuck piece of shit SSD do you have?
>>52167734
Moto X PE
i5 4440 for gaymen
>>52167824
>Data keeps fading
Doesn't happen unless it's faultyl
>>52168201
Seriously, I'm on my 3rd SSD (nothing wrong with the other two, I just didn't carry them over into new builds) and I haven't had any problems (besides the 840 faggotry)
none, I'm not dumb enough to take advice from 4chan
>>52167734
dual monitors -> Nobody fucking told me that monitors will have slightly different hue that will make you hate everything
trackball -> this was good. sadly lost it during a move
ssd -> got a 32gb dirt cheap silicon power. it's been good to me
Bad:
Spent too much on keycaps
Had to buy an extra pen for my SP3 after the 1st one went for a spin in the washing machine
Good:
Buying a Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 was the best thing I've done in years
Xiaomi Pistons are excellent headphones
>>52169219
have you tried changing the color settings so they match?
>>52169283
Yes. it won't work.
What might actually work is setting up a color profile for each monitor to have colors rendered in a way that look identical in both monitors
But that's way too much work.
>>52169219
huh, I have a 2011 HP, and a 2003 Syncmaster at different hues, and it really doesn't bother me
>Desktops
Fuck that shit I'm better off programming on my laptop. Don't need all that horse power and bulk. I am going to try to sell of just deprecate my desktop and keep working on my laptop. Just going to keep my monitor, keyboard and mouse and dock that shit.

Most sub $600 phones are crapped up with bloatware and bullshit to make you buy the full priced model, surprisingly not this one
>>52167824
>Installed Linux ------> Result = Literally nothing to do on Linux
best thing ever
now fix your life
>>52169413
>buy mech keyboard
>go to parents for xmas
>some cheap hp rubber keyboard
>it's actually better
Only one /g/ meme has served me well and it is C
I've fallen for pretty much every meme except Bitcoin. Kill me now.
>>52167734
Bought a Thinkpad and installed Linux instead of getting a real laptop. Glad I saved all that money, but holy fuck is this a hunk of shit with no battery life. Plus I have to use Google Docs, so I haven't even escaped the botnet.
>>52169479
You wouldn't be so bad off if you had fallen for BC early.
>>52169467
I hope you don't mean the programming language.
>>52167734
>iPhone #JustWorks
>Surface is great now!
Arch. Not say I'm mad, after a couple days of reading their wiki it's been a smooth sail
>>52169358
Yeah I agree, I bought a powerful laptop for uni instead of a shitbook + desktop combo. Saved myself money and it does what I want it to perfectly.
>Surface
>Sony Headphones (MDR V6's)
Both have been great so far so I can't complain. The trackpad on the Surface 3's keyboard is quite ass though. Haven't tried the Surface 4 keyboard on it.
>>52168162
This. keen to know.
>>52169219
Just the brightness difference gets me a bit but usually don't notice
>Installed /g/entoo
>bought a mechanical keyboard
>riced gentoo with cute kawaii fonts and realized that I can't do shit with it without seeing max effort
>think windows is now a botnet
>uninstalled chrome because /g/ told me it was a botnet

>>52167734
The cs meme
>>52169668
>2016
>not embracing the botnet
>>52167824
Quality bait.
None. Never have.
>>52169620
powerful, actually portable laptop + peripherals for home use is the master race combo
>>52169822
Yeah got a 14 inch Gigabyte laptop, and have a monitor keyboard and mouse setup at home.
>>52167734
ssd, it's okay but the price<>storage ratio is retarded and not worth it
>installed loonix
>got an Android phone
>switched to SJWfox from Chropera
>>52169219

I also have a trackball, but I couldn't get used to it so it resides on my rack shelf

Where does this meme comes from anyway?
I recently see it appearing once in a while but it always contains the same 3 pictures (the one with the japanese microsoft tablet, the one with the earth fitting the display and the asian chick "getting shit done" on her dual screen setup.)
