Is vista the greatest OS ever?
Not but admittedly it looked gorgeous with that dark aero theme.
Ignoring all other operating systems in existence... yes.
>>59413285
Best looking, yes. Best Windows, maybe, unfortunately the (artificial) lack of compatibility with some software holds it back.
Can we replace this stinky rotten faggot with something else?
Post your suggestions

Wait a second there, I go through the effort of not mixing personal and professional affairs, phone is not connected to the business' network, all my personal addesses and services are never used on my work devices, and vice versa.
There is no way to associate both devices to the same person, so how in the fuck does the botnet know?
It is just a (((coincidence))) goyim. Nothing to worry about.

Of course not, what a ridiculous notion. Sounds like something a paranoid conspiracy theorist nutjob who is into fake news would think. Just relax, goy- I mean man.

Is DuckDuckGo still considered a bad idea?

Better than cuckle but not as good as hosting your own searx instance on a VPS in Switzerland

this meme needs to end, NOW
>>59413083
How is SSD a meme? It's literally more reliable than spinning rust which fails at any random moment due to moving parts.
>>59413092
No, it's not more reliable. It's faster and that's an improvement in 99% of normie use cases.
>>59413092
LOL you've clearly never owned an HDD
very rarely do they suddenly die, and never without a reason.
ssd's are overpriced as fuck still. and bottlenecked by current connectors.
definitely not worth buying considering the price.
Please explain why/how this works
>>59413030
It doesn't. The output comes from a different application.
What do you mean, it's super simple. You write to the variable a, then write to the array at indexes -1, 0, and 1, then print all of those. As expected, it prints a, then the values at indexes -1, 0, and 1. The only real issue is that -1 isn't supposed to be a valid index. In C, there's nothing really stopping you from putting negative numbers or completely wrong numbers as the index, there's just a chance that it could point to memory that belongs to another program, or it could modify some part of your code and break it. In this case it doesn't seem to do anything really bad, so you're lucky.
>>59413030
you are modifying the argc/argv variables stored on the stack with the negative index?
When is this shit coming out? Is there going to be a 5T or some shit later on? FUCK!
Did they skip the 4 or something?

how does /g/ protect itself against hardware/microcode botnet?
Libreboot + running only free software + not using hardware made after 2008.

So I'm trying to buy a vacuum for my parents but i can't find a place to compare specs and stuff. I'm looking for a lightweight vacuum and am looking to spend $400 Usd or so. Any help? Where else would i look

Seriously get a fucking Miele.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring 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.

I'm a beginner programmer, and I love C. I realized that what I love about it is its simplicity and stability. These two things allow me to feel more confident about the code I write and read, and also add a feeling of security, knowing even after a few decades from know I will still be able to write and read good C code.
Even with C being a small language, I still am not confident when using it. I've recently started learning x86 assembly (Programming from the Grounds Up, free pdf), and it was an eye-opening experience. Once I finish that amazing book I will move on to Linkers and Loaders.
But I'm making games and I won't be able to use C all the time, if I want to be competitive. Right know I'm using Python to generate level files from pictures and other stuff, but even though the language is very attractive, it's still HUMONGOUS and horribly fast changing. And the only way I could feel confident about it would be by examining over half of million lines of code of the Python interpreter, and even then it would change over a couple years.
Is there a simple, small, slow-changing, alive programming language that would be more productive/secure, albeit at the cost of freedom and efficiency? I want to be able to learn every single function of its standard library, I want to to be able to learn how it translates into machine code, all in reasonable time frame, and I want that knowledge not to become obsolete after a couple of decades.
What could it be? I know it's not Python, Ruby, Java, or the damn C++. Could it be Rust or something like that?
I know you know much more than me, and are vastly more experienced, and that's why I ask your help.

Common Lisp is an ANSI standard, it doesn't change since 1994. The specification is not short, but it's certainly shorter than something like C++. The open source compilers for Common Lisp are great these days, and there are several implementations to choose from unlike Rust.
There is also Scheme. The specification is very short, and you can stick to R5RS which is probably the most popular version of the language and will never change.
