Are slide rules cool?
>>60519634
Yes, but kinda useless nowadays with electronics. I think scholls should incentive their use instead of normal calculators, at least in highschool.
>>60519634
Depending on application
>>60519768
I don't know if their use should be incentivized over calculators, but I definitely think students should be exposed to slide rules, abacuses, log tables, etc. to expand their understanding of math a little bit.

Should I switch to linux or stay with windows 7?
>>60519277
Stay with Windows.
Linux is too hard.
Linux is easy
Install Kubuntu and that's it
Upgrade to Windows 10, dual boot with a Debian variant
what are your thoughts on Void Linux? is it a meme?

Fuck that bullshit, I'm going to find a job. Why can't a computer science department make proper software?
>>60519014
That's how large organizations work. They don't throw money at stuff unless it breaks.

because it works just fine, fucking freshman
Stanford doesn't have this problem.
Makes me think "top tier" means "not total shit" to be perfectly desu with you my fampaitachi.
There are SO MANY gays and trannies though, and you can't tell them to go to hell because muh feels b4 reals.
The only fan in my case (other than the gpu blower fan) is on my cpu cooler and it maxes at around 85° at 1500 rpm. How much difference would a 2000 or 3000 rpm fan make?
Would adding 2 120mm input case fans be more effective than increasing rpms on the cpu fan? The case has lots of perforations and was designed so case fans weren't necessary (lian li pc-v353).
RPM isn't what matters for cooling. CFM is the number to look for, keeping an eye on listed noise levels. You don't want a fan louder than 20 dB.
>>60518899
Depends on the ambient temperature in your case. If heat builds up in your case then having intake and exhaust case fans can very well help. If it doesn't then case fans won't do much.
>>60518899
As someone that owns one of the 2000rpm and 3000rpm PPC Noctuas, I'll tell you that the 3K RPM one will make you case sound like you're sitting next to a hairdryer, plus you can only slow it down to 1400RPM before it stops spinning which is still fucking loud.
The 2000RPM one is a bit better but by the time you slow it down to a point where it won't piss you off you might as well have just stuck with a lower RPM fan. The numbers are great, but high performance comes with high noise in most cases, you can't break laws of physics.
Adding fans to improve your overall case airflow will benefit much more than trying to force it all at one point
Guys please redpill me on Synology NASes.
I have about 3gb of working file on gdrive. I need a weekly snapshot/backup of these.
I want to be able to wget webpages, YT-DL some videos, etc. to a box at home.
I want to be able to keep a backup of my gog games & disc based stuff.
Is a Synology box the best pick? I am thinking the 216+II in Raid 1 with some 4tb Reds?
Can it do wget/yt-dl duties?
Power consumption is a concern (europoor) hence I am not keen of the whole "use some old power hungry pc as a nas" route.
Need the storage to be local too, hence not going cloud, vps, etc.
thanks guys
>>60518328
NAS units are generally a trade-off between price and how much you're expected to do/know to run it, in this regard Synology is the Apple of NASes; expensive, but idiot-proof and will generally do anything you want it to.
>>60518328
I own a Synology 1815+ and love it. Newer devices are much better of course. These days it's a tossup between QNAP and Synology.
I choose QNAP when I want to use my NAS as a player and will locate next to a screen or when I want to virtualize a machine under it's OS.
I choose the Synology at the time for the hardware AES support which for my own storage was most important.
Both are equally as easy to use.
I believe the Synology uses a SAS backplane so I judged the Synology to be of better quality at the time. In over 2 years of operation, I've never had an issue.
>>60518403
>>60519126
/thread.
Synology and QNAP are network storage for people with more money than time.
You can definitely get cheaper hardware at any performance point, but the software interfaces are leagues better than FreeNAS et al.
My personal cutoff point is 10GbE and ECC support: a normal 1GbE box isn't worth fucking around with setting up myself, but the cost of a mid-business-level NAS is marked up enough that I'll spend the time to save a few thousand bucks.

Hi /a/nons, I was trying to test something in Git Bash on Windows (which seems to have GCC) and the following C code gives me segfault:
#include <stdio.h>
void prueba(int* a)
{
int num = *a;
printf("Number is %d\n", num);
}
int main()
{
int* t;
*t = 6;
prueba(t);
}
any ideas why?

Should I use Google-Chrome or Vivaldi?
> They both can use Chrome-extensions
> Vivaldi have tons of features, chrome, not that much.

Try them for yourself and decide, don't listen to /g/
Vivaldi is just about AS customizable as Opera and Firefox, Chrome is not.

I really like the idea of energy saving mode at Windows 10 (Desktop PC), but i am a bit afraid because i have a ssd and I don't want to rape my ssd with 4-8GB write every time i put my PC into energy saving mode.
Is there a way to move the data from the RAM to my hdd, and not to my ssd?
>ever turning off your computer
>ever putting it to sleep
>ever putting it into energy saving mode
>ever hibernating
>ever stepping away from computer except to satisfy bodily functions
you could disable hybrid sleep and just use regular sleep, which doesn't update the hiberfile

>Is there a way to move the data from the RAM to my hdd, and not to my ssd?
Yes, there is. Install Gentoo.
idk you lads but im pretty tired of normalfags ruining our internet.
Nice try, normie. There's a separate Internet for us cool guys but I'm not telling you how to access it.

Thanks, OP. Here's a text that has been useful in the past:

Still has a few more years of use out of it.
