what's are the first things you do when you join a tracker?
I read the rules then look for FL torrents.

If we ignore concerns about electricity consumption, which light bulbs are the best for your health?
Studies show that LED bulbs damage your eyes
CFL's emit UV radiation and are terribly dim
Also the EU banned incandescent lights, it's like they want you to go blind and sunburnt.
High Pressure Sodium
Everything is GOLD
>>59155010
no light, go to bed at sundown like the middle ages.
>>59155010
you know the answer already. now stock up on 100w bulbs from china.
Why is this better than most modern day monitors?
Better because a little radiation is good for ya
>>59155006
you don't have to choose between picture quality, viewing angles, refresh rate, black levels, etc.
you just get all of it in one box.
Most CRTs can run resolutions higher than they were designed for without distortion
Can someone redpill me on Constructors ?
Why do I need them?
My class has methods, I can just instantiate an object then call methods....where do constructors fall in this simple usage pattern?
A constructor is a method that is called on object instantiation
They're useful for initialising object state and passing in parameters
Example:File file = new File("blah.txt");
>>59154889
If you fill your class with useful default values upon creation, you're using a constructor.
So thats only one call.your_class instance;
has then everything you need to make it work right away. Which is one call, not two, hence cleaneryour_class instance;
instance.set_some_values(a,b,c,d,e);
You can also pass them arguments (if you write the constructor eccordingly) to give them different default values. That comes in pretty handyyour_class instance(a,b,c,d,e);
Also it enables you to finetune visibilty, if it is for instance not meant that the user can set values after creation themselves, you can directly only set the constructor public, not the set functions
Will be good?
No. Retard.
Yes. Retard.
Maybe. Retard.
Hypothetically speaking, how would one go about destroying this evil company? is that even possible for a single person to do?
probably a well placed bomb
>>59154719
Doubt it. Even if fb has a centralized server and you were to destroy it, and in the process of doing so killing zucc and other important figures. It's just such a profitable company that it would rise again. The users would lose their data but i doubt it would take more than a week before everything is running smoothly again.
>>59154627
>is that even possible for a single person to do?
Probably, but not with a bomb like it'd be in a movie. The way a single person could kill facebook is if they were a big celebrity popular with lots of people, especially young ones, and preferably not just in America but worldwide, and they made a big public point of talking about how you should be careful with your privacy, and quit social media sites.
Basically if avoiding social media became a trendy thing to do they'd be in a lot of trouble really quickly.

>Trying to decide between Kabylake and Skylake
>Kabylake is basically a slightly clocked Skylake
Are Kabylake even safe to buy lads? Besides the slight speed difference are there more benefits that I'm unaware of?
Wait for Crystal Lake. It's going to be a killer.
>>59154553
what's kaby and skylake? 14nm? what's next after kaylake?
Kaby Lake is not even a new generation, its literally rebranded and over clocked skylakes so Intel can make more $$$
Has anyone here ever bombed a java class the first time, but retook it, and did a whole lot better the second time?
>>59154521
Not really, for me the lectures are absolutely useless and I've only managed to learn by actually doing our assignments.
No, anyone that failed the first time should commit suicide for being so profoundly retarded.

Thye age old question...
What DOES happen if you're streaming and you accidentally show your desktop and IP adress to a couple of thousand people?
Especially is said stream is on Youtube and anyone can now see your IP adress?
>>59153836
I'm asking for a friend, obviously.
unless you don't open your ports like a retard, nothing
They can DDOS you, better unplug your router right now, I am 100$ serious.
Is it worth it? Should I go for it? It's used.
>he fell for the thinkpad meme

Looking for dumb phone recommendations. Something small, durable, can call/text, not too expensive, works on USA GSM bands.
I love the Punkt but the price point is goddamn inexcusable.
Any Nokia E-Series phone.
How about a Nokia 215?

This thread is about the appreciation of watches, as well as the micro-engineering and materials engineering that are required to make a fine watch.

Oops, posted at the end of the last thread.
Hey guys, first time stopping by
This was my dads TAG Heuer, he just broke up with my stepmom now and needs some money so I bought it from him for $1200.
It's a lot but feels pretty cool having my first real luxury watch.
What do you think?
>>59153439
Given the poorly copied dial and weird looking lugs, maybe. But the too small sub-seconds is a design flaw that Nomos made on their own watch, not just something that shows up on fakes.
>>59153567
Oops :^)
Me too
