How secure is protonmail? Like to give it a try with a burn account but I made the account on my work internet. Is it already compromised?

>480 is just objectively better in everything, but power efficiency (aka from corner cutting async compute)
AMD cards have never been the cheaper option, just the wiser option.
>>58654190
The real question is why isn't the rx 470 cleaning up when it's such an incredible value and a better value than anything nvidia has on the market save maybe t he 1070
>>58654252
Why did the GTX 280 outsell the 4870 when it was less than half as powerful for a higher price? Because Nvidia shills are the hardest shills in the world.
>>58654287
Still have that card and love it. I am certain there will never be such a value card from AMD again.
So, which kind of work is Moot supposed to have on google?
>>58652806
Being a gud boy
>I was doing an internship at Google by the time moot was hired. I looked up his profile in the internal "network" and his title was "Product Manager" IIRC.
>>58652806
His job is to makes threads on /g/ asking what kind of work he is supposed to have on google.

How should I do the file/folder structure a multi-page react site? It's just a portfolio site where each "domain.com/xxxx" page is a separate front-end "app".
These threads are dying really fast recently.
Easiest way to scrape a website with dynamic content?
I need some anti-Apple/Mac memes for my collection. Post your best and I'll be dumping what I have.
Also feel free to voice your hatred of Apple/Mac garbage.
BTW can MacCucks easily into FLACs nowadays?
Overpriced but it's friendlier than windows for older and younger people.

Bump. I've been doing over the wire and binging through cybrary vids. Doing the a+ vid series now as I have no prior experience sides cs classes. Is that a good place to start? Btw thanks for the links I'm definitely going to add them to my autistic schedule.
>>58644534

rate, if you want to be rated yourself.
Just cleaned up my cabling today. Wire tubes are fancy as fuck.

Is Telegram any good?
>>58623565
Telegram is okay as is any other chat app if the majority of your contacts use it. If not, and you have to persuade people to use something new, Signal is a much better choice.
165hz vs 60hz?
should i buy a 27in gaming monitor or 32in widescreen?
main games i play are csgo mm only (64 tick), dota2, rust and arma.
>>58673033

>don't trust Google or Trackers
You're running it in a VM anyway. You could install Bonzai Buddy and it would still be isolated to the VM.

Give me one good reason to use Windows instead of Linux.
The Adobe meme ins't a reason (If you aren't a liberal arts faggot of course).

>>58672377
Indians have higher average wages than the average white American you dumb Nazi.
>>58672386
this meme will change in the next few years as even more poor indian and nouveau riche chinese flood into north america. just because some punjabis moved to the US in the 70s & 80s and opened businesses doesn't mean indians are more capable than anyone one else in IT.
Alright boys I got the job. Give me examples of employee discounts
>>58672110
As an employee, I was able to pick up a gold plated hdmi cable that was originally priced at $80 for the paltry sum of $25. Best Buy really appreciates their employees.
>>58672158
Anywhere I can check what the employee prices are?
>>58672158
Could of bought the same hdmi specs, for 2.50 on ebay
