Well, you can't be bloated if everything spills out of your gaping security holes.
What's the single most aesthetic piece of tech?
>>60058646
>>60058646
I've always wanted pic related.
Macbook air is undeniably the most aesthetic. Nothing else even comes close.
Just wanted to ask if there are fellow Ryzen 7 owners which can share some experiences about this cpu
as for now, i was able to lower the vcore of my ryzen 7 1700 from stock vcore 1.1875 to 1.0 and it actually saved me about 23 watts
going anything lower, makes the cpu a bit inconsistent in keeping the clockspeed stable
So anyone break 4ghz? Anyone not able to hit 4ghz?
Honestly thinking of going kabylake for this reason.
25% more clock on top of the ipc advantage makes it too appealing to jump on muhh coars. At least for my usage case.
>>60055472
You wont regret buying ryzen unless you use a 144hz monitor and you need all the FPS, but if you go intel just don't get anything lower than the 6700k.

X41t, G40, T42 and 380ED
I use the T42 and x41t most often for shitposting, selling stuff on ebay, listening to music.
G40 is just around because its cool, 380ed is around because its old.

ENIAC was cool i guess.
Athlon XP 2500+ running 98 SE. I actually got hold of a pretty nice purple coloured Palit Geforce 4 MX440 64MB (the 8x variant).
I also got a system for cheap - turned out to be a Socket 478-based Celeron 2.4GHz (Northwood) with 512MB RAM, a 40GB WDC harddrive,"LC-B350ATX" PSU that turned out to be decent (I can provide pictures if needed), an ABIT Siluro FX5200DT (wish I'd find more ABIT stuff), some generic soundcard and NIC (C-Media and "IC+") and a white Sony DVD-ROM.

I need some help getting back into linux. A year or two ago I was pretty deep into the culture and worked my way through tons of distros and managed an install of arch once upon a time. I need something that I can game through wine fairly dankly and something that isn't too command heavy because god knows I can't remember shit.
Any recs?

USB3 is embarrassingly slow and unstable as well. I can't believe what a poor standard it is. I used to run an external as my main drive ... must've lost a lot of hair off my head doing that.
The external Jew has you in its grips and you're returning to it tho lol
1) Open 2TB USB enclosure.
2) Remove HDD
3) Install HDD in desktop computer.
3) Copy contents of HDD to USB 3.0 drive enclosure.

Why is this shit so expensive compare to keyboard and mouse combined? Has Apple seriously lost its mind?
it's magic
Apple touts their trackpads as the best in the world. People expect the best example of something to be expensive. Otherwise they'll suspect that the claims are empty marketing and they'll ironically be less interested in the cheaper device.
This is not a simple model of demand. Once you convince the world that you have the best product, you have to sell it at a high price for the sake of your business.

They kinda are though. Even my macbook from 07 has a better trackpad than my '16 dell
Who else fell for the CS meme?
here have some OC i made after switching from CS to CompE
>>60075762
Currently falling for it. I did fine last semester when we were just doing Java but I'm seriously about to fail my C course I'm taking now. I wish I could start over.
CS is only a meme if you do it at a meme school. If you think making 80+k starting is a meme, wow you need to rethink your memeology. And yes, those are viable figures for most top 25 schools in cs.
hey nerds
normie here
here is the gist
everytime i receive a sms or a call, if the cellphone is near my laptop the monitor blnks on and off
apparently some kind of radio interference
I dont know
am I being spied on or its just how things are
why would a laptop have a radio receiver/transmitter capable of messing with the monitor?
