What /g/ thinks about ReactOS? Its is good it has fatal flaws? It can replace windows in medicore gaming pc?
>>61933568
>What /g/ thinks about ReactOS?
It has potential. It is under active development and "visibly" gets better with each major release.
>Its is good it has fatal flaws?
Nothing I saw so far. What shortcomings it has can be rewritten and they did some big rewrites in the past.
>It can replace windows in medicore gaming pc?
Definitely not. Driver support is a problem in terms of you cannot run the drivers themselves. The OS itself is still alpha and not stable.
>>61933568
there's not enough interest behind this for it to ever be useful in practice
I hope some code makes its way to wine though
>>61933568
It's a vaporware/scam project. They parade it here and there asking for donations/investor money because "they have potential", only to squander it.
It's 20 years in development and it was never usable on real hardware. Most of it's code is either useless rewrites of notepad.exe and explorer.exe, or code pulled in straight from WINE. They don't have and never had any hardware experts.
Linux is 30 years in developments and widely used on mobile phones, and somewhat used on desktop by some nerds. It boots on real hardware and runs WINE, so it's a better Window replacement than ReactOS.

Answer the question Opie
ITT: We talk about plain text files, and what future (if any) they have in years to come.
Is as low as we can go now just minimal HTML?
>>61933460
Plaintext isn't going away.
HTML is not a good alternative because it has too much formatting and is hard to be read without a browser.
Markdown isn't rich enough to be worth using instead of plaintext.
Even if a HTML-markdown mix does come along, plaintext would never completely go away because it's plaintext.
>>61933534
But by contrast HTML's extra formatting isn't an issue on modern hardware, and everything with a screen has a browser but not everything with a screen is capable of 80 columns of comfortably read text (smartphones).
When was the last time you saw someone upload a text files as just a text file? Even "minimal" sites still use HTML for the above reason.

I used it from 2002-2008. It was a lot of fun, but eventually you'll come to realize what a time sink it can become and switch to something like Ubuntu. If you were running it on production servers you'll come to realize what a mistake that was too.
It's fun for a good while though and a great way to learn deep Linux skills. I first started using Gentoo when I was working for a small business IT consulting shop which eventually led me to a 10 year stint at a large enterprise as a Linux sysadmin. I'm now a senior systems engineer at a major tech company and make over $140k working remote from the Midwest. I have Gentoo to thank for all of this.
Does non-shit forum software exist out in the wild? Just want an absolutely minimal framework that:

Bonus points for:

Really don't want to hack something together myself. Picture not really related, I don't think.

What are you working on, /g/?
Old thread: >>61919998
>>61932358
Learning asm.
Would it be hard to learn C# if you're new to programming?
And what are the best methods to learn, i've already signed up for a programming course at a community college.
Do you share / GitHub your code, /g/? Why / why not?
Personally I don't GitHub / share my code because it is too hard to understand and no one wants to see my shitty c# code.

If it's something that is useful for me, it's likely to be useful for at least one other person out there. Especially if its related to a somewhat niche technology where there aren't any free or open source alternatives.

Well, there goes buying that fucker. I'll never be able to get a case for it. Guess I'm getting the Pixel 1
So will the Nokia 8 be good?
>>61931987
Why's that? Wouldn't think the squeeze function prevents using cases, the HTC U11 has cases for it right?

My AMD Radeon HD 7950 just died after 5 years of use, what is something of equal (or a bit better) performance today?
>>61931593
> HD 7950
RX 470/570? Also probably 1060 6GB.
>>61931616
1060 is too expensive for its performance.
470/80 are not available.
So i'd say a 570/80 if in stock. If not in stock indeed a 1060 3gb.
For gaming beyond 1080p/60fps, 1060 6gb
>>61931634
> If not in stock indeed a 1060 3gb.
I've seen posts not recommending it, because 1050Ti can do better.
