What exactly do you expect it to do? What are you majoring in? Does your institution require that you run certain programs? Do you expect it will?
Help me help you, m8

If you just need a web browser and to type up some documents it's a good budget option.
When I was in university I have to use lots of windows only software so double check you don't need minitab or anything like that.
If you are in CS, you'll want a different machine.

It's pretty much designed for students, yes. Make sure it can run the software you need though, it's GNU/Linux.
Is there anyway to get a good and free vpn service?

What isn't to like about this language?
>Expressive type system with built in variants
>Obvious and straightforward error handling
>Most polymorphic techniques from other languages are covered elegantly with just traits and generics
>Efficient, no GC
>Same opportunity for low level optimizations as C or C++ with unsafe blocks
I don't get what the hate is for. The community is wank, but the concepts are solid and so are the implementations.

I have a small issue with Extract Audio Copy. I want to rip some of my CDs to FLAC, but when i do an uncompressed copy i keep getting my files in WAV, not FLAC.
Any idea ? Thanks.

I don't think you're about to use raw HTML on tumblr. You'd copy the style, but content of your blog will be just the same.

If you want help:
>Assemble parts list

>State the budget for your build (and country if not USA)
>List games/software you use often, as well as your monitor resolution + refresh rate
>Clarify your goal for build improvements: lower price or improved specs?

CPUs:
No i5 unless discounted
>G4560 - poverty-tier builds
>R3 1200 - Budget builds (<$500)
>R3 1400 - If you need multithreading
>R5 1600 - Best value for higher fps gaming / mixed usage
>R7/Used Xeon/Threadripper - Compute/Multitask/VM/mixed use, not for just gaming
GPUs:
Coin miners have driven price up and stock down, waiting to buy a GPU might be wiser
>Integrated CPU Graphics - Desktop stuff and very light games
>GTX 1050(Ti) - Lower end budget cards, drop settings on newer games, RX560 beaten by both
>RX570 - 1080p@60~hz maxed, running most maxed older games at 100~Hz
>RX580 and GTX1060 6GB - 1080p@80hz maxed, 1440p@60hz at lower settings; RX580 better in newer games
>GTX 1070 or Vega 56 - 1080p@130hz /1440p@60hz at high
>GTX 1080 - 1080p@144hz / 1440p@60hz maxed, 4k@60hz in a few games; Probably the highest end card you need for 1080p/1440p
>GTX 1080Ti - 1440p@144hz and 4k@60hz maxed/high in many games
>Good fucking luck even getting a VEGA right now
RAM:
>Check your Mobo QVL before buying any RAM
>Ryzen CPUs benefits a lot from high speed RAM, 3200 MHz is ideal
General:
ALWAYS LOOK AT PRODUCT REVIEWS!
Always consider an SSD. Try buying a large SSD for what you'd pay for your SSD+HDD combined, and add a HDD later
NVMe SSDs aren't for a faster OS boot, they're for productivity/scratch disk/VMs. NVMe and M.2 are not the same thing, M.2 is a form factor

seeing that reddit went full evil and doesn't respect our freedoms, I think we should migrate to a free alternative:
https://raddit.me
the license is zlib. you can access the source code and contribute here: https://gitlab.com/edgyemma/raddit-app
what do we think?

>open-source centralized server
>on a private server
I'll never understand what's the point that people make when showing project like this.
Does it work distributed or better, decentralized? It seems not from the readme. Usually it is a feature people highlight on their project when talking about freedom.
>>
>>62264024
no, these anarchists are really running this on a centralized server and they don't realize the irony in that

What do you use it for?
How many minutes do you use?

Kudos for trying, though.

Jesus, why not buy a Thinkpad and try to install Gentoo on it? Learn C while you're at it and listen your shitty music on a portable music player with Sennheiser headphones?
