Can someone explain how people are supposed to learn this shit when there are a shit ton of APIs, frameworks and tools based off of it that you also probably need?
Its fucking cancer I just want to make a good looking interface jesus fucking christ.
>>61568769
You don't need those tools and frameworks. Just make something yourself first.
>>61568855
Plus it sounds like you haven't mastered css yet if you just want to make an interface with Javascript and struggle with it.
There's only one API, Mozilla MDN
There are multiple framework, but u start by the most famous, try, if they sucks for you you can try the next on the list.
It's confusing at first, because everyone is bothered about spending so much time choosing, but that's the price of competition I suppose.
Hey /g/, is my PC garbage?

Yep, save up for that better OS before anything else. Don't forget to buy Office and Office 365.

Just like computers, people need to cool down as well, how does /g/ position her fans to keep cool?

How do you guys feel about the Dell Precision series of laptops? What's the best option for someone running Solidworks, Siemens NX and IDEs? Not gaming on this at all, and usually I use an external display, so I don't care about onboard resolution.
>>61568549
Just get a T430.
That's what I used, and it works well with ProE/Creo, Matlab simulations, anything really.
Or get an XPS 15 or Precision (they use the same chassis) if you want to throw some more money down and get something newer and not be stuck with the shit screen on the Thinkpad.
>>61570245
BTW, if you can, try to pick one up from a Microcenter.
I found the newest XPS 15 (XPS 15 9560 w/ 4k screen and 512gb ssd) for 1600 USD. Ordering the same spec from Dell would cost 2200 USD.

CPUs:
No i5 unless discounted
>G4560/G4600 - Budget builds (<$500)
>R5 1400 - Cheapest quad core you can get (Ryzen 3 soon)
>R5 1500x - Good but up to 1600 if you can
>R5 1600 - Best value for higher fps gaming / mixed usage; 1600x if you want higher stock clocks
>i7 7700k - Only for 144hz
>R7/Used Xeon/Threadripper - Compute/Multitask/VM/mixed use; Not for just gaming
GPUs:
Coin miners have driven price up and stock down, waiting to buy a GPU might be wiser
>Integrated CPU Graphics - Desktop stuff and very light games
>GTX 1050(Ti) - Lower end budget cards, drop settings on newer games, RX560 beaten by both
>RX570 - 1080p@60~hz maxed, running most maxed older games at 100~Hz
>RX580 and GTX1060 6GB - 1080p@80hz maxed, 1440p@60hz at lower settings; RX580 better in newer games
>GTX 1070 - 1080p@130hz /1440p@60hz at high
>GTX 1080 - 1080p@144hz / 1440p@60hz maxed, 4k@60hz in a few games; Probably the highest end card you need for 1080p/1440p
>GTX 1080Ti - 1440p@144hz and 4k@60hz maxed/high in many games
RAM:
>Check your Mobo QVL before buying any RAM
>Ryzen CPUs benefits a lot from high speed RAM
General:
ALWAYS LOOK AT PRODUCT REVIEWS!
Always consider an SSD. Try buying a large SSD for what you'd pay for your SSD+HDD combined, and add a HDD later
NVMe SSDs aren't for a faster OS boot, they're for productivity/scratch disk/VMs. NVMe and M.2 are not the same thing, M.2 is a form factor.
The Ryzen lineup comes with surprisingly good stock coolers. consider using them over any <$30 cooler.

Just wanna play first person shooters like overwatch, doom, and call of duty

Both the CPU and the GPU are overpowered for games like that. You could get away with a 1400 and an RX 560 and still be perfectly playable

can you get any kind of quality graphics hardware under $100? what's the best price to performance card out there today?
>>61568484
GeForce GTX 1080. No joke, because 1070 prices are inflated as hell.
>>61568484
an second hand AMD card if they aren't still bought up by miners

pretty sure intel cpu's have video built in
So /g/, why is the linux kernel written in C and not C++? Wouldn't it be much easier if the kernel was written in C++?
>>61568408
I have no clue why, but I would guess performance
>>61568408
C++ is an abomination of a language.
Linus Torvalds himself dislikes it.
It is much better, faster, and more intuitive to write an OS kernel in C, since you get direct access to low level facilities.
why isn't it written in holyC?

No, anon. Mommy won't see all those anime titties you look at

Its not secure at all
The only way to hide what websites you're going on from your ISP is by using a VPN

I didn't ask him to switch, but:
Why do people always bring up muh office? For most normies LibreOffice is enough to distribute documents as pdfs and then there's Google docs if you're not botnet concerned. Office is the most retarded excuse not to use GNU/Linux in most cases
You should be grateful that they even know what linux is.
People just ask me stupid questions like
>anon why is your laptop sooooo old? why dont you buy a new one?
>why does your windows look so weird??
>and where's your mouse??
it just means they're unfamiliar with the software basically. I put libreoffice on my moms computer and she recently asked for office beacuse of what I assume are compatibility issues. I'm guessing she isn't saving in the right format but I'm not sure.
>>61568186
>beacuse of what I assume are compatibility issues.
The fun part is, that if you use both the way they are meant to be without weird hacks, they're mostly compatible. But if you hit enter 13 times to put something on the page footer, the other office software might misrender it.
