This is hilarious. Have you tried Google? You should try that instead of using/g/ as your personal IT.
Looks like a corrupted partition desu senpai.
Try cd'ing around to see if partition is damaged or simply volume ID changed. Try downloading a live image to USB drive and booting from it to see what's left.
Should i buy a macbook pro now or wait til October or December when they refresh it

Can we finally put an end to this meme?

This really triggers me as a macbook owner.
Because a lot of this is plain false. At least dongle memes are real.

/pcbg/: Post your component list; rate other anons'; ask questions in general.
>Assemble your parts list with price comparisons & compatibility filter.

THEN state the PURPOSE of your PC & BUDGET. State COUNTRY if not USA.
List GAMES/SOFTWARE you use often. List resolution & hz if gaming.

CPUs:
>G4560 for budget builds (<$500) unless G4620/i3-7100 is heavily discounted
>R5 1500X will keep above 60fps in every game. No i5
>R5 1600 is the best value for higher fps gaming and mixed usage, 1600x if you don't want to OC
>i7-7700k for high 144hz framerate but heats a lot.
>R7/Xeon for compute/multitask/mixed use. R5 if budget
Graphics:
>G4560 iGPU is fine for LoL, dota2, rocket league, etc
>1050Ti - if on sale for ~$105. RX560 soon & looks good
>RX570 4GB - 1080p@60-80hz, running most maxed; older games at 144+hz
>RX580 8GB - 1440p@60-75hz, inject SMAA and drop settings for some games
>1060 - Gets outperformed by the RX 580, consider only if AMD is not an option (CUDA, Linux)
>1070 - 1080p@144hz/1440p@60hz, poor value but performs well
>1080 - 1440@110hz. 120+FPS or 4k@60 by lowering a few settings
>1080Ti - 1440p@144hz/4k@60
>Freesync2 & Vega soon.

So are open source advocates also against proprietary music, movies, books, video games, etc.? Video games aren't even a stretch as open source software would include video games. His would the creative output of these industries be affected by lack of IP laws?

Anyone ever fucked around with balloon radio probes?
I've read people have received signals from 10mW transmitters from over 500km away using pretty primitive data protocols.
Seems like a good way to transmit data over ridiculously long distances without needing any licenses.
I calculated that it would take about 10 regular-sized "carnival" balloons to carry a 100mW lora modem,the battery needed for an hour of air-time,and the rest of the tech. That's about 100$ tops.
I live too close to airports.
>>60253097
nobody's gonna see it if you do it at night
just don't put any lights on it
my local laws only ban rc crafts and kites near airports,they say nothing about balloons
Don't they eventually just pop from altitude? They don't last very long at all.
No idea how useful it would be.
Do you make electronics or are you just a consumer babby?

Seems like the Big 4 have engineers that make 150,000-250,000+ range. What skills do they have where they aren't being paid 110,000-140,00?
They are actually competent
Career development and interpersonal networking skills.
