I dont understand why people feel the need to bring (bad) web technologies to desktop. I understand desktop is in stagnation and everything is either mobile or web now, but for the love of god, who in their right mind would use electron to develop file system.

A file manager and a file system aren't the same thing, mongo.

I once heard the concept of captcha described as:

How does /g/ feel about this description?
Are captchas a plague we should be working to be rid of or a necessary evil?

What you're asking the programmer to do is to define down the letter what separates a machine from a person, and somehow make it something that all people across all cultures have in common and that can be instinctively known by the computer before a user inputs anything.
In short it's a flaw, yes, but asking a programmer to fix it is like asking a philosopher to define the very nature of what makes us human.

Alright /g/, I need your help.
I recently built a new computer. I went with an MSI B350M Mortar Arctic motherboard, because it has support for surround sound through spdif. I have the latest realtek hd audio drivers installed. Windows 10 64 bit.
I own a Samsung home theater system with spdif in that works perfectly fine for my consoles.
However, I can't get this shit to work properly on my computer. If I right click on my volume button in my taskbar and hit playback devices, then right click on the realtek digital output, and hit properties, and go to the "supported formats" tab, when pressing the test button for both DTS Audio and Dolby Digital, I get sound from my sub, left front, middle, right front, right surround, and left surround respectively. So obviously it SHOULD be working, however beyond that nothing fucking works. If i go to "advanced" tab under the realtek digital output properties, and press the drop down for "digital format" all options are in 2 channels, absolutely none for surround. Any video game that I run does not play surround, and music that I listen to that is mixed in surround (for example, Fear of A Blank Planet by Porcupine Tree) does not work in surround and only plays on left and right front (nothing from the sub even). The only thing that I have actually heard work in surround is while I was streaming Game of Thrones on HBO Go. Which is really fucking weird because I have tried to use that little surround test for Halo 2 (which works flawlessly on my Xbox One), and again, only getting audio from 2 channels from it.
I am at a complete fucking loss here, No idea what the hell is the matter with this shit. Any ideas?
sorry for the wall of text
>>62011599
oops mis-remembering a little bit here, i realized that while i normally stream game of thrones on my computer, i happened to stream a couple episodes on my xbox that must be when i heard the surround effects because i just went to play it on my computer again and only getting stereo.

Hey determinism fags, If the whole fucking universe if deterministic, then it's theoretically possible to build a computer/program than can calculate EXACTLY what is going to happen in the future, given enough information.
And if that can be calculated, you can purposely alter the future.
If you alter the succession of events, that means that the predicted future wasn't correct.
As soon as you knew the future, the future changed to a future where you know the future.
How is this not alike the "many worlds interpretation"?
Also, if the universe if fixed, then how come you are mad at me if it was inevitable that I posted this?
Also, why the fuck am I so depressed, does the universe hate me?
It makes more sense that I fucked up..
>>62011353
>given enough information
It is not possible to obtain this information due to the Uncertainty Principle
>>62011353
Sure it's "theoretically possible" but you making such a device would also be inevitable (if you did), and if the machine was perfect then it would predict any alterations you make upon receiving this information. If it's not perfect your point is moot. The universe is fixed and as such me calling you a retard is inevitable. Retard
>>62011426
>and if the machine was perfect then it would predict any alterations you make upon receiving this information
That would create an endless loop.

CPUs:
No i5 unless discounted
>G4560 - poverty-tier builds
>R3 1200 - Budget builds (<$500)
>R3 1300x - Good stop-gap between the 1500x and the 1200, only get a 1400 if you absolutely need multithreading
>R5 1500x - Good but up to 1600 if you can
>R5 1600 - Best value for higher fps gaming / mixed usage; 1600x if you want higher stock clocks
>R7/Used Xeon/Threadripper - Compute/Multitask/VM/mixed use; Not for just gaming
GPUs:
Coin miners have driven price up and stock down, waiting to buy a GPU might be wiser
>Integrated CPU Graphics - Desktop stuff and very light games
>GTX 1050(Ti) - Lower end budget cards, drop settings on newer games, RX560 beaten by both
>RX570 - 1080p@60~hz maxed, running most maxed older games at 100~Hz
>RX580 and GTX1060 6GB - 1080p@80hz maxed, 1440p@60hz at lower settings; RX580 better in newer games
>GTX 1070 - 1080p@130hz /1440p@60hz at high
>GTX 1080 - 1080p@144hz / 1440p@60hz maxed, 4k@60hz in a few games; Probably the highest end card you need for 1080p/1440p
>GTX 1080Ti - 1440p@144hz and 4k@60hz maxed/high in many games
>Good fucking luck even getting a VEGA right now

General:
ALWAYS LOOK AT PRODUCT REVIEWS!
Always consider an SSD. Try buying a large SSD for what you'd pay for your SSD+HDD combined, and add a HDD later
NVMe SSDs aren't for a faster OS boot, they're for productivity/scratch disk/VMs. NVMe and M.2 are not the same thing, M.2 is a form factor
>>62010857
>>GTX 1070 - 1080p@130hz /1440p@60hz at high
I'm hitting 144fps on 1440 on most of my games. It would handle 144@1080 just fine for most titles except maybe witcher 3 or battlefrog 1.
I need prices on 6GB GTX 1060s to drop down to a comfortable level.
I just need one.

the current state of self driving AI meme lmao
Why go through all that effort? Just steal the stop sign. The self driving car can't see what's not there!
This is a shit idea to begin with. If you're going to have self driving cards you need to adapt the roads and signs and rules to suit them. Trying to get them to read road signs made for humans is just a waste of time.
I think they're jumping the gun here. Just make us cars that can autopilot on highways to start with. Let me hop onto an onramp, set the destination exit, and wake me up five miles before we get there. I can handle the short city driving.
