There are plenty of free options.

Failure rate is way more and 2.5 inches drives are slow

Because if you're running something billions of times, every byte of memory, every CPU cycle, every millisecond counts.

>>61083001

because an algorithm that is twice as fast is still going to run twice as fast no matter how fast the computer is

why? are you triggered by something?

You don't know how to ask good questions. I guess that's why you weren't able to research the matter yourself and come up with your own answer instead of posting on a forum full of braindead anime fans.

Windows was built by code monkeys.
Code monkeys produce shit.

Is this the Windows 2000 source code leak

>>61083735
Yes

copying from the end of last thread:

From a pure job security, job availability, and long-term salary point of view, would it be better to choose information security or software development in my career?

I realize that both of these are massive fields with many subfields to choose from, but I would like some general guidance. I am finishing up a CS degree from a good university, and have one internship plus a few side projects under my belt.

I am interested in both software dev work and software security stuff, and have to pick a career path. If one is equally interested in both, which do you guys feel is the best route to take? Which path won't be infested with h1b's?

about 80% of kernel devs are corporate employees that're getting paid to do what they do.

Are you retarded?

My Nexus and Pixel literally get updates every month.

just werks for me. it's not for everyone and especially not shill thread posting brainlets like (you).

Still use them?

I have my Nexus 5, it works, it does what it's told, today i ordered a new case for it. Yeah, battery sucks but that's a poor justification to spend 800 $ on a phone as good as the Nexus 5 was when it came out.

chuck em at cars from an overpass over a highway

Old one died and new one running since 2.5 years (note 4). The trick is to keep using them until they stop working. It's not like I don't have money for a new one or i don't want one in fact I'd love to have a brighter screen these days. What I'd hate the most is a perfectly fine smartphone laying around in a drawer because it has been replaced in an unnecessary manner. I really have no uses for smartphones other than texting and webbrowsing.

Nothing.
Video Games and Photoshop.

But I use Windows in a VM for Games and Photoshop CC 2017 works really well on Wine once you've got GalliumNine installed.

MS Paint! It's the perfect tool for making Polandball comics.

>>61081594

How do you install gallium nine? some links?

Cool, after all that typing on QWERTY be sure to soak your hands in some ice water.

I used to use dvorak for a while knowing completely that studies consistently indicate that the advantages to dvorak are negligible. The thing that stopped me was mostly keybinds. Well, emacs, specifically. And window managers. Obviously you can remap keybinds pretty easily for both cases, but it's a lot of work, and remapping everything on every computer gets fatiguing. Thus, I use the standard qwerty configuration.

What gravitated me towards dvorak wasn't the fact that it was more efficient. I assure you, I have and never had any illusions about dvorak or any other bullshit keyboard optimizations. What was appealing to me was the learning curve of dvorak.

I guess you could say I'm the kind of autist who studies conlangs, on top of actual, real languages. I'm fluent in Esperanto, at least. Sort of. I can hold my own in Lojban, although don't actually quote me on that.

What I mean to say is that I think learning how to use a different keyboard configuration is, in a minor way, a fun and entertaining thing to do. As a kid, I bought some international keyboards and practised learning writing in French that way. I never really figured out French, honestly, but I loved the experience, so that's where I'm coming from. It's like an easier and more practical compromise from learning ASL. I just love the visceral experience of it.

The way it subverts your muscle memory, forcing you to be cognizant of every key you're pressing, even though, intuitively, unconsciously, you think that you're more in control than you actually are I just loved.

I remember, one time, in college, while using dvorak, I was typing on one of the qwerty keyboards in my school library, and my hands just went numb. Like, it felt as though they were filled with concrete. It felt amazing. Like a really good workout. Something about that is just so sublime.
