It's actually widely used to learn how to exploit and find vulnerabilities because it's so insecure. It has uses.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering 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.
Hello /g/ I'm looking to upgrade my computers graphics card, but I don't know what would be the best option. I was thinking a 1060 would be a good choice, (I think I will need a new motherboard too as modern screens don't work with it).
My current rig is pretty old:
i5 2500k
H61M-USB3-B3 mobo
16gb ram
win7
GTX 570
Just hold out till the rebrandeons come out in 6 days if you want the best GPU near the 1060 class
(RX 480/470).
Those two might lower in price (currently $150 for 480 and around 110ish for 470)
or you might be able to want a possibly nice RX 500.

WHERE?
Got any info or links?
Thanks in advance

Are there any recommendable motherboards? I genuinely have not paid much attention to computers for a long time
hey guys have you seen that weird #ourmine shit on youtube?
there are tons of entire channels where all of their videos are renamed to a single title:
>#OurMine - https://youtu.be/IdJuVgR_-7M (Read the Description)
just check for yourselves, search for ourmine
at first I thougt it was some viral stunt, but there are entire channels of hundreds of videos
sorry if I am missing something, and this is some kind of promo, but if that is the case, google needs to be behind it or something like that

Alright /g/,
I have recently lost my laptop due to water damage but the hard drive is fine...
Im on a desktop replacement right now, how can I boot into my old operating system to pick up where I left off?
Pic related: the laptop someone sabotaged....
Have you tried plugging the laptop HDD into your desktop motherboard?
Get a sata/usb adapter and connect it to your laptop
Then boot into it
You deserve it for buying a piece of shit gaymur laptop, and for using windows which shits itself if you try to boot it off a computer different from the one which it was first installed.

Since the 1970’s C (and later its derivatives like C++) have become the main programming languages used in systems and platform programming, but is that about to change?
C/C++ came to dominate over other languages because it exceeds the 80/20 rule; with well written C/C++ you can get well over 80% of the efficiency of hand crafted assembly language in less than 20% of the development time. However every C/C++ programmer has seen their ‘perfectly’ crafted and tested program crash at the most embarrassing time possible, due to some unexpected issue in memory allocation or mishandling of a pointer.
So is there an alternative that can reduce this? An alternative that might relegate C/C++ to very limited areas of the industry, in the same way as we see assembly language used today? We have seen many new languages pass by without really displacing C/C++ as the systems programming language, but is it possible that Rust might be the real giant killer?

Before trying to answer this question we need to understand a little of what the Rust programming language actually is.
Rust is designed to be a ‘safe, concurrent, practical language’ and it is supported by an open (and friendly) community. Rust is sponsored by Mozilla Research, so it has a strong backer and it is unlikely to disappear through lack of support. We at Cambridge Consultants have been working with Rust for a little while, and indeed my colleague Jonathan Pallant gave a positive talk on it in October of last year.
The initial Rust development started back in 2009, with the first stable release appearing in 2015, and a number of updates are released each year. Rust provides a number of high level constructs found in many scripting languages, but it is statically typed and compiled so it can execute as fast as any native language.
As a programmer, who sometimes still uses assembly code to get that extra speed, I have to admit that I was sceptical; you simply can’t use a ‘safe’ language in some areas of system programming. However when I started looking at Rust I found this language design philosophy was applied in a very practical way; what Rust means by ‘safe’ is that the default behaviour is the safe option, but still the programmer has the power to override this where it is necessary.
A trivial example of this is that in C/C++ all variables are mutable by default and you add the const keyword to make them immutable; in Rust all variables are immutable, and you add the mut keyword to make them mutable. The C/C++ programmer in me says that’s a lot more typing, but actually it’s just a small example of a different, safer mind set which you find in the Rust language design. This goes on to having a language keyword – ‘unsafe’; which tells the compiler to release some restrictions in that specific block of code. This keyword also flags areas of the program which need to be checked in more detail during code review and testing; something which is normally achieved by comments in C/C++.
Another area where Rust is helpful is that it handles underlying memory allocation and release of objects, and ensures this is done in a safe consistent way. Again, when I originally saw this I was sceptical, since most languages do this with garbage collectors which cause issues in real time systems. Rust is designed to use reference counting and scoping to implement this in the same way as we would in C/C++. However because it’s part of the language, the compiler can check and catch a number of issues at compile time, rather than finding them from the core dump.
In such a few words I can only start to scratch the surface of the language, and I haven’t even started to describe the infrastructure (such as the package manager Cargo), but I hope I’m sharing a little of the exciting possibilities that this new language might open up.
The Rust language looks like it has a good design, based on looking at the real work of system programmers, and then providing a set of tools in the language to implement code in a safe way. Rust has passed the first hurdle of being able to build its own compiler, and there is work on using Rust on embedded devices, which is starting to show an interesting potential.
However these are very early days, and Rust has a way to go. For example, the ability of Rust to be used to write an operating system or a complex application for the smallest of devices currently supported by C, is yet to be proven. It’s only when Rust is used in anger in such applications that we can truly understand both the full extent of its potential, and its limitations.
Having watched the rise of C/C++, it seems to me that Rust is currently in the position that C was in during the early 1980’s. At that stage the only ‘specification’ available was ‘The C Programming Language’ by Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie, which had been published in 1978. While C was widely used, the formal industry acceptance was only confirmed by the publication of the C89 standard, more than a decade after that first informal specification.

So I bought this monitor, and want to get thr super glue off. Is this at all feasible without damaging anything but the glue? Read up for hours on it before posting here. Suggested means are soaking in soap-water, acetone and debonder. Tried the first one but maybe not long enough. Thought about taking the film off the screen and redoinh it - what would that take? Ideally I'd like to avoid that. Please give me suggestions.
>>59880087
Acetone works on superglue, but not LCD panels.
>>59880107
Forgot to add it has a matte finish - it's plastic, so acetone might do a number on it.
>>59880087
You're fucked. If it's plastic, it's chemcially bonded already.
Why is this allowed?
Shit posting? I don't know. It should earn a permaban.
