How would the world be if Netscape had embedded OCaml into their browser instead of inventing JavaScript?

VBScript would have won out since ML languages are too autismal for webdevs and we'd all be using IE still.

javascript serves as a dynamic API to browser functionality, this requires a scripting language to be able to work with unforeseen data at runtime

Sure they will improve over time, but they are not supposed to work like regular CPU so forget about using it for gayms or anything normie related.

On Arch KDE Plasma.....
Why do I get SIGNIFICANTLY better desktop performance with Nouveau vs Nvidia propritary?
>Nouveau --> all animations are 60fps, tooltip effects 60fps, resizing windows 60fps, everything is flawless
>Install NVIDIA
>Resizing windows is choppy as fuck and is like 5fps
>Tooltip delay is stuttery
>everything feels like shit
What's this about? How do I fix this shit?

How do you avoid Win10 ass raping grub every update? I tried to set up a UEFI dual boot in a VM before risking that on my system and have failed so far

I have a problem. I have been hired to provide a database to help a small club manage membership, and I thought I'd check and see if there were any good commercially-available solutions before I built one myself. Well apparently there's hundreds of them, and I'm a bit overwhelmed.
I was wondering if /g/ had any recommendations? The club is about 350 people. I need it to be able to send mass emails and I need it to be fairly idiot-proof. The club is mostly old, computer-illiterate people, and I won't be the person using the DB.
I can always just build one myself, but I don't want to if they'd be better served by an off-the-shelf product.

Just choose anything that's regularly updated.

I'm pretty sure you can hack a quick web app with Rails or Django. 350 people isn't that much, I think even SQLite could be enough. If not, MySQL and PostgreSQL are fine.
For emails there's services like Mailchimp and it's competitors.

About to go in and start looking to sign up for college courses. Interest for my career is in networking security and development. Whats the best path to take?
Been thinking about computer science, but lots of talk makes it seem like the wrong choice. Help.

im gonna be a careful little fag here, but ask your career resources type thing in your college. They should be able to help you

>>62369079
Yeah that's sorta what I'm doing, but I want some solid feedback on things from you guys before I go in and make my case, you know?
I figure many lads here have a reasonably well informed opinion about which paths are right for what.
>he uses KDE Plasma
1 compositing / panel doesnt update when disable/enable
2 compositing flashing black screen graphical glitch during compositing enable disable after program launch(default settings uncheck allow applications to block compositing fixes it)
3 mouse scroll causes garbled text in the main menu and other system settings place
4 really inconsistant mouse scroll rates, painfully slow in menus, very fast in dolphin, etc
5 when hovering over many icons (pinned panel programs, files on desktop) tooltip causes very bad lag / choppy fps (depends on theme, some better than others, breeze is one of the worst for it)
6 glitched text in Ark until you resize, also happens in Open File dialog prompts, only happens when Preview is selected, fixes when mouse hovers over any item. Happens every time.
7 wallpaper settings sometimes doesnt display correct preview, displays wrong wallpaper than what is chosen
8 if you install too many themes/window decorations the default Breeze theme gets overwritten by a randomly installed one? (Removing all themes sort of manages to pull Breeze default back though)
9 firefox turns white screen with loading bar if compositing enables or disables at any time (game launch, opengl program) have to restart firefox to fix (fixed in Nightly)
10 Themes dont uninstall properly. After you click remove, it still shows 'Uninstall' in 'Get new themes'
11 sometimes audio will completely bug out and be totally distorted/garbled until you move the slider up & down a bunch of times.
12 switching default audio to HDMI from the panel menu causes audio to glitch out until you switch back & forth and move the volume up and down, gradually fixing it
13 Poor OpenGL Compositor settings. XRender resizes windows, moves windows, much smoother than the OpenGl renderers
