So I am returning to school for a BS in computer science, but noticed that information systems seems much easier (less math). Could I be a software developer with an information systems degree?

You can be a software developer without either, the question is how many doors do you want open at the beginning of your career?

We'll I wouldn't want to cast any doubts in regards to my education or knowledge when applying for jobs. I am going to school for one of these degrees though.

Although I am not an employer, I can say that I would consider the CS degree wielding applicant over the IS applicant if they both had the same experience and attitude. It carries a lot more weight.

I'm interested in purchasing a thinkpad and loading Linux on it. Been a windows fanboy up until this point but not only do I need to learn Linux but I am pretty frustrated with windows 10. I mainly will be using the laptop for programming, electrical design, web browsing and maybe some CAD stuff.
Budget: $600ish
Location: Oklahoma
Size: 15"
Performance: Enough to do all the tasks aforementioned
Other requirements: prefer SSD

Well-written and completely reasonable questions thread.
Rather than creating threads for questions that can be answered in max a few replies, post them here.
-take at least 10 seconds to check your problem with a search engine
-post any relevant information (example: if wifi doesn't work in your laptop, post your model, wifi card model and OS) to speed up replies
-don't just bump the thread
-be sure to check /g/ generals for questions in certain topics like gnu/linux, video cards, PC building, headphones etc.
-feel free to cross-link/repost your unanswered questions from the previous thread

I don't know if this question is considered too stupid for the PC building thread so I'll ask here too.
So I tried upgrading my power supply and video card yesterday but for some reason the computer wouldn't boot properly. The new parts seemed to power on because the fans were spinning, but all I got was a black screen.
Any idea what I could have been doing wrong? I ended up putting the old parts back and everything still works fine so I presume I didn't break anything, or at least nothing vital. Do you think I just got a faulty PSU, or is it possible there could some other problem? (I'm going to get a different power supply anyway because I'm an idiot and bought a non-modular one, but I'd like to figure out if there's some other issue.)
Here's my current PC. My PSU is a Corsair CX500. The parts I was trying to upgrade to were a Corsair CX750 and a Sapphire R9 390X.
It should also be mentioned that I tried the old graphics card with the new PSU and it still gave me the black screen, which is why I suspect the problem is with the PSU.

hey /g/
so i'm having a dilemma with a program that keeps coming on and off for a second and then just ends every once in a while that is out of my control. I want to know what it is and I'd like to find out if there's a way to make my windows machine take a screenshot whenever an application is open. If not, what's the best way I can make my computer take a screenshot after x amount of time intervals?

What are the best alternatives to Windows Deployment Services? We've already tried Symantec Ghost in the past and it didn't fit for us.
I've heard of Serva, is it any good?
I need something that allows me to easily add drivers and programs, WDS takes a while to do.

He built templeOS from scratch by himself over the course of two decades, but it's pretty much useless in daily practical usage due to his bizarre reasons for making it. He's definitely a smart man held back by a severe mental illness.

What the fuck /g/, I thought you said Macs and Apple products are just for kids and faggots?
Are these people retarded? Why the fuck would they use Apple shit?
Why are all these "smart people" using Macs?
And why are so many "smart" college professors(specifically CS professors) using Macs?
Seriously, what the fuck is going on I thought Applel products were shit?
Hipster journalist getting haxxed is pretty funny though.
