Can I get the rapid gist of the tablet meme in the [[[[current year]]]]?
Are they good for anything? Were they ever?
I'm thinking about getting a used nexus 7 2nd gen for cheap; for shiposting, ebook/pdf reading and youtube/web browsing.
I own a Nexus 7. It's a great tablet. But I'll also say this:
I own a Chromebook as well and use it 10X more than I use the tablet. There's no reason to use a tablet when Chromebooks exist.
>>60135443
>I own a Chromebook
Which one?
I really don't know, it seems I'd be better to get a laptop instead.
>>60135406
I keep one by my bedside, screw around with it before bed, that's all it's good for.
What's a good graphics card that you can find for under $20. I don't want any bullshit. Only Answers. Don't ask me anything else about the subject. My only requirement is that it is PCI-E and can actual run a damn game.

>PCI-E video card for $20
>can run games

>for under $20

I think you could run oblivion on it actually, maybe with the oldblivion mod idk
I feel so damn guilty all the time. I feel like I need to read ten trillion old books or else people will call me stupid and claim I'm missing something. I feel like I need to go through SICP before I can program or else people will call me a stupid codemonkey and claim I can't do anything worthwhile.
I know they're all talking shit but they get to me. I know why what they say is nonsense. But it gets to me so hard.
>>60135275
get a load of this guy
you're just feeling what the truth is my friend, you are the worst out there. The only humans worse than you are the ones who didn't even try at all. Maybe they're even better, they knew they would fail so they didn't waste anyones time trying.
You should definitely give up theres no hope
Completely honest here, take acid once and you'll never worry about this bullshit again. (assuming you aren't completely retarded...then again, lots of retards take acid and get nothing out of it so maybe just sit in your own misery man idk)
SICP is a beginners book

Im about to buy a RasPI Zero, however i just looked it up and it seems to be really underpowered, even for simple tasks.
Are there any decent alternatives for about the same price?
I dont wanna spend $35 bucks for the normal PI, just wanna know if i could get anything decent for <$15 or so.
what do you plan to use it for?
>>60135202
Retrogayming, simple web server, torrent box, etc
I know the RasPI 3 can be used as a simple HTPC, any board with similar features for that price?
Just looked up the Orange Pi Zero, which seemed perfect... except for the fact that it doesnt have video output.
>>60135282
the pi can handle all of those just fine, whats the issue here

Why the sudden push for """Net Neutrality""" when the internet flourished for decades without it? I don't understand the sudden panic and urgency. Feels like a weapons-grade meme pushed by the CIA.
who cares
We had net neutrality for centuries
Can I get some recomendations for anti-virus for Linux?
I'm using Debian, btw.
ClamAV is the only one
but you don't need it at all unless you're extremely retarded
>>60134821
I just want to be sure.
>>60134755
You don't need an anti-virus.
But if you want one, get clamav and configure clamfs.
>lol that guy has a corded mouse
Enjoy having to buy new batteries every few weeks.

I once used a Phenom I boxed cooler on a 3770K when my H100i broke. I just layed the cooler on the CPU.
Worked fine for a week until I got replacement, didn't went over 85°. I downclocked it a bit just to be sure.
See pic related.

Speecy is SHIT.
Has anyone on this shitty board actually done anything noteworthy or impressive in their technological field? I get this impression that despite all your shitposting and contributions to the graphics card circle jerk, all of you are mediocre code monkeys who work a 9-5 and justify you career choice solely through your yearly income, which you use to buy more consumer electronics, which in turn you post and brag about on /g/.
