How the fuck did this happen? Was I just being throttled before? I'm using PIA, which is usually slower than my normal connection, but after buying a new wireless adapter and running these tests, I'm pretty surprised.
How did the VPN suddenly outperform my own network?
>>60300088
I'm doing more tests, and it's really hit or miss whether or not the VPN outperforms. I got a few results from the same server, clearing cookies/cache, repeating, etc, and found, at one point with the VPN, 0ms ping, 15 Mbps down, 16 Mbps up. Turned it off, got up into the 80's. Turned it back on, goes to the 70's all of a sudden.
Is this site just full of shit? I don't know if I should trust these results.
>>60300088
>>60300224
Are you retarded?
If you don't get why VPN has different results with speedtest than your real connection.....

do you lerdit your chan experience, anon?
I would sometimes, but I can't be bothered to add a thread/unthread hotkey to 4chan x and you're fucked if you think I am going to go dig around in a dropdown menu all the time.
>>60299637
No. I really hate the shift to threaded discussions. A reddit comments section basically consists of the top two first level comments and dozens of inane replies to said.
With a flat model without voting, each post is on an equal footing.

Why do people make these stupid distros?
For every original and successful distro, there are a million spinoffs and shit that are the same thing but with more bugs and other problems. Why can't the people who make these distros just contribute to the existing distros to make them better instead of making some half-assed niche distro that will be dead in a year?
Do you think any of the more popular spinoffs will die soon? Like Elementary or Manjaro?
>>60299598
Apricity never had a real community behind it.
Also NO, other popular distros won't die.
>EvilEntity
>>60299598
Any distro with a significant userbase won't die. Elementary and Manjaro both have significant userbase, as does Solus. Even though they're somewhat small, they aren't going anywhere. Which is fine, because if they have userbases it means they're doing something well/different.
>>60299531
yes
buying drugs on alphabay mostly
for buying drugs ? yes, for general browsing ? nope
>>60299531
Yes, everyone.
Mostly for downloading a shitload of stuff, streaming movies and leeching torrents with >9000 open sockets.
You'll do everyone a favor.
>>60299531
I don't but I'll get a VPN soon, which hides my stuff from my ISP at least.
As for using something like Tor all the time >>60299567 is kinda right, even though everyone should use it to make it more saturated with random people not doing any funny business on it. But it just slows down the connection too much.
>>60299531
>Does anyone here use anonymity programs like tor?
Yes
>If so why and should everyone use them?
Adding more nodes increases the speed of the network, and a large amount of "legitimate" traffic reduces governments' ability to claim that privacy protection is evidence of law breaking.
What's the modern equivalent to this?
Why aren't there any computers today that combine the keyboard + computer into one?
Is it impossible to take RasPi and just embed it into a keyboard so you can just plug a screen into it? Why sin't anyone making this?
Also, isn't there an HDMI wireless connector so you don't even have to plug a cable into a device like this?

Intel will rape your ass and Nvidia will fuck your mouth now for telling these 'lies'
man i dont even need a new computer but i feel an impulse to upgrade
After extensive testing, I have found that the 7700k blows the Ryzen out of the water
Are you using a non-proprietary email service, /g/, and if so, which one?
And why isn't Startmail recommended by PRISM break?
I just signed up for Kolab. Very nice so far. I hear things about Tuonata too and am intrigued [but also not recommended by PRISM break for some reason].
Nobody? Weird. With such a supposed focus on privacy I thought this would be right up /g/'s street. Is there any point in using Gentoo or the like but still using Facebook and Gmail every day?
>>60299765
I never even knew these thongs existed.
>>60299906
Fuck i meant things
I dunno what to do.
Should i go buy my self a Raspberry pi and install Linux onto it, mainly for the purpose of pen testing, or should i save up for a new £569.99 PC?
I currently have £110, and i only get like £40-£50 a week.
>Minimum wage fag
For $250 you can get a pretty kickass chromebook that would be perfect for pen testing.
>>60299214
I've already got a £400 laptop, not good enough for playing newer games, i mainly use it for scripting and pen testing already, but its not very discrete.

Why are default Linux interfaces so fucking ugly?
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

because only amateurs are willing to do this shit for free

Mostly because most distro communities lack the funds for a professional designer team.

>>60298620
You have C : the lingua franka of programming.
C++ : a multiparadigm language, that is under constant development.
Also bunch of other languages for hundreds of specific purposes.
Is there any special reason to write a program in C# ?
