When will 4chan be on mobiles and tablets? I'm tired of the precision needed in clicking things.

howto get a copy of Windows 8 Home

So /g/ I'm going to sell my old laptop and I need a copy of Windows 8, I believe it's Windows 8 Home.
I've searched and there doesn't appear to be any way of downloading it from Microsoft. I'd like a Microsoft option but I'd also be happy with any magnet link to a "pirated" version as long as it's basically what OEMs get.
I immediately removed the Windows infestation and wiped the HDD and installed GNU/Linux without even starting Windows when I got it. This means that the "recovery" partition every "helpful" website speaks about is long gone.
I have found out that the laptop has a Windows key written into the BIOS and I have extracted this key with acpidump. I'm fairly sure it will work with the exact Windows version this laptop came with and I'm fairly certain that's Windows 8 Home. There's an ugly sticker under it that says "Windows 8", not "Windows 8.1" and I'm guessing they didn't ship any "Pro" or "Enterprise" version with it.
I'm getting rather frustrated. Before anyone writes something as stupid as "just buy Windows", no I'm not going to pay as much as I'll get for this old laptop for a new copy of Windows and doing so makes no sense anyway since I already have two legal Windows keys (my new laptop was also Windows-infected but there's no recovery partition or traces of Windows on that one either).

fuck of

>>60953739
use kinguin or w/e its called for a key, then download windows 8 using the "windows iso download utility" (google that to find it), then use "rufus" to make a bootable usb, then install windows
>>
Windows 8 is discontinued.
8.1 is ending support soon
10 is your best option at this point.
Is there such a thing as a internet download manager that actually can resume downloads from these "freemium" download sites?

Bump for the love of god, I've been trying to download some big files on chrome for almost a week, they always get interrupted in the middle of the hours-long downloads. I don't know what to do, nothing seems to work.

>>60953541
try jdownloader

I think it doesn't work on sites where links are temporary

Okay boys and /g/irls, I need your help to become nonexistent.
>1 year of college left for CS degree
>Will probably have to move out of my parents house when that time comes
>Want to work to where I dont have to leave my house
>From there, rent apartment in city with cheap high-speed internet and become a shut-in for the rest of my life
How do I accomplish this?
I'm fluent in most mainstream programming languages, including swift.
Should I just begin developing apps en mass and hope to make money that way?
I need to make just enough money for vidya, rent, internet, food, and hygiene.

The only way you're gonna accomplish this is by making some kind of "killer app" that rakes in ad revenue.
>>
yeah just make some bejeweled-tier casualware and reskin it 100 times
>>
>>60953459
Yes, a killer app or a ton of apps that bank off little kids and memes perhaps.
Like all of those "fidget spinner" apps. They take about 2 hours to program, and you can put ads in those lil suckers.

alpine Vs mutt Vs *your favorite console email client*
your preference? why? why not?
I'm partial to alpine, but I feel like mutt is the overwhelming favorite. I don't know VI shortcuts well enough to have it matter, and alpine has always been good enough to not want to change.
Fucking sidenote / public service: don't google image search "mutt vs tree"... a lot of dog gore. What the fuck, internet?

Mutt because config is not impossible for gmail and multiple accounts, also vi is everywhere. But what the fuck, poor doggos.

ok so this is fucking absurd.
my download speed keeps crapping itself. sometimes it'll get as low as 10kbps.
except when the portable AC is on. then everything's normal.
the worst part is that my upload speed remains constant.
what the fuck. what's happening?

your internet packets are getting bigger from the heat, clogging the ethernet cable and making it slower
when you turn the AC on the packets go back to their normal size
you just have to keep the ac on any time you want to download
>>
>>60953068
even if you weren't having a giggle, my download speed goes up the instant I press the power button on the damn thing.
I'm not familiar with wiring but could it be an electrical problem? with the wires or the modem?

Your ac got sentient and developed a crush for you, it is very jealous that's why it doesn't wants you to see porn when its turned off
It just wants to spend time with you, you should be glad about it instead of trying to fix it

So how do you guys feel about Atari getting "back in the hardware business"?
so far, all we know is it will be "PC based"

Does it even matter at this point?
Atari the company that made computers and video game consoles in the 70s-90s has ceased to exist.

I hate life itself and this whole fucking website... but as soon as I read this I squealed internally like a little schoolgirl.
I think I'm gonna treat myself to some grapes and tell my wife I love her.

>>60952986
>tfw wasn't even a glimmer in my father's eye when Atari was in it's prime console days, but when I learned this, I got excited if nothing else because it injects some variety into the stale usual suspects we've had for the past 16 years
I really hope their new console does well. the console industry needs to be revitalized. it's been stagnant for years.
Can any of you /g/uys explain what exactly AWS is? I feel it's becoming even more important these days

it's a pre-configured cloud computer you can rent from amazon
>>
>>60952856
It's a linux VPS you can rent.
You can also attach extra processors or storage space on demand, and you can do this programatically so your backend application can just grow your company's cloud storage/compute needs on demand and your company can foot the bill.
>>
>>60952856
An ever expanding list of Amazon services they rent out to you. Everything from storage to DNS , load balancing, compute, even himself workers (under the name mechanical Turk)
I saw the guy who made The Chan on here earlier, and there's also people working on nyaa, I was wondering what software/programs/apps are made by people on /g/. Does anyone else on here make stuff that is actually available to the public, not personal projects?

Hey guys, I had an old stuffed toy with a speaker inside. I opened the toy and found a little remote with a button to start the sound. I opened it up, the the motive being to put my own sounds on it, but have no clue how to do it. I have access to a soldering iron and I'm assuming a computer will be involved :P

Hey /g/
I just got a new black desk and I need to put a computer on it. I need a computer that looks good and a computer that can handle some python coding, light use of after effects, premiere, and Photoshop. the two computers I have listed are the Surface Studio and the new iMac they announced recently. Which one works better than the other?
No I don't care about price. No I don't care about microsoft botnet. No I don't want to get a ThinkPad and put gnu/Linux on it.

Why not both?

Buy a Thinkpad and install Gentoo

Get a laptop and hook a monitor up to it, you don't need either of those systems.
