Anyone here use pdanet+ to tether? What kind of speed do you get via USB? Does it match up to your phones speed? My phone gets pic related but on my computer I'm showing about 0.5 down and 0.3 up. Any suggestions?

Looking into getting a portable A/C. Guess I'll be spending somewhere around $200. My room's 120ft2. Saw this model in the pic, and wondering if it's any good.

I live in a dreadfully hot area. No kind of A/C in my house, and been 100 degrees farenheit outside, so it can get up to 90 in my room. Would this model even be worth be getting? Would it be able to cool my room to let's say like 70? That would be ideal.

Hello /g/,

I came to a very disturbing realization the other day. "Google" and "Baidu" mean pretty much the same thing. A "google" is the number 10^100, and "baidu" literally means "hundred degrees". In the context of complex numbers the degree/angle/phase would equal the exponent (e^ix).

What gets even more strange is when you take "Baidu" as an English and "Google" as Chinese. "Baidu" sounds like "by do", or "do by" backwards, as though they are commanding you to use them. We know that Google's scam similarly is to try to pretend they are the internet itself. "Google" if taken as Chinese sounds like "古狗 gugou” ("ancient dog"), which sounds like a reference to ancient Rome, the original SJWs of Western civilization. "Baidu" similarly is a line taken from Chinese classical poetry.

So what is really going on? Is Google a part of some globalist conspiracy trying to brainwash people with some form of mind control?

>pic is one of the things that I saw that makes me think the above is not some mere coincidence, especially the part about swapping English/Chinese

How do we fix C++? Here are my proposals:

>Fork current C++
>Cut off C source level compatibility
>Modules, support wildcard in module imports
>Lazy iterators and ranges
>Lifetime specifier, borrow check system (optional)
>Pattern matching
>Variant types
>Hygienic macros
>Adopt Meson as the standard build system and dep management tool
>Free and open source, cross platform Language Server Protocol
>Get rid of C preprocessors
>Call it D++

Why haven't terminal emulators evolved since the 1980s? Why do they still emulate terminals from the 1980s?

So headed off to Uni in about a month, and am in need of a new rig. Thing is, I probably won’t be back home for at least a year at which point I’ll be home for about 3-4 months. Should I bother waiting a year or so (more like 9 mos.) to build a rig or would it not matter as far as pricing a year out from now. Anything new on the horizon?

Also, how much do components generally devalue after a years time? Cheers

Think about it, toilets and latrines are proprietary bathware that restrict the ability to relief yourself to a fixed spot. If you don't want them to become ridden with virus then you must pay extra for cleaning apps, not to mention you need to subscribe and pay a monthly fee to third party service providers (water, electricity if they are "smart") if you want them to work.

By using a public toilet you accept and unwritten EULA that openly discriminates between people (toilets exclusively for men, women, blacks, trans, disabled, parents with their babies), you can't pick the cleanest or the less crowded toilet and in some places they even charge you a fee!

Open defecation/designated shitting streets is a free alternative that respects your right to choose. No subscriptions, no payments, no installation required, just poo it.
