I'm looking for some decent bluetooth speakers. Always playing music in the front yard, or even inside when cleaning. Got the UE Roll 2, and you can't play it while charging, which is so inconvenient. It's usually in a drawer, since it's pretty much useless. Got an old school logitech 2.1 system, but there are so many cords. Of course, it does sound amazing. Anyone have suggestions?
Its 2017 get a wifi speaker

Not sure what you're looking for. Decent volume in open spaces, long battery life, portability?
It's been three years since I've been on this board. Is Avast still the best anti-virus and chrome still the best browser?
>>60913619
Install gentoo.
yeah sure why not
>>60913619
>Avast
botnet, use clamwin
>chrome
botnet, cannot configure anything, firefox is better
What is the correct, /g/ approved position for browser tabs?
>>60918120
Why? Are you developing the /g/ browser that was talked about in one of the /dpt/ threads?
>>60918138
No, I just installed Vivaldi because I got fed up with Firefox retardedness and it's got loads of useful features and options built in. Pic related for instances. You don't have to rely on shady addons by pooinloos.
Top has always been the right answer since Opera invented tabs
Just read the etherium Hello World. Do I get this right?
A "smart contract" you write is basically a OOP class for a bot. You compile it at your local machine.
You must pay (e.g. ether on the etherium blockchain) to do something on (write information to) a (Turing complete) blockchain (writing down a transaction is a special case of doing something).
So uploading an instance of your class ("smart contract") costs some amount, and if you use it to change something on the blockchain you again pay. (Hello world just prints something to the standard output and so it's free service once the contract is up).
Correct?
Also, I'm wondering if there's a cool coding project out there. What would you guys be interested in regarding coins and blockchain? For now, I'm just thinking about taking the price data and evaluating it one way or the other.
I do Bayesian inference for my job, although not in finance.
What would be a information service/website that you'd be interested in and that doesn't really exist yet. What do you need?

Make something that will autotrade shitcoins based on an algorithm to maximize profit
Basically, let it find a coin that's starring to moon, buy it, and then sell it once it starts to dip again.
>>60913996
Yeah, I'm working on a Python scripting tool that loads prices and detects if something is happening. Nice and good, and then you can store and work on the data at home, but for the most part graphic tools exist and this market is so volatile that nobody would have good reason to respect my expectations. Nevermind the fact that "disruptive" product and even coins arise every day.
There are indeed already api's e.g. for Kraken in many languages
https://www.kraken.com/help/api
https://github.com/veox/python3-krakenex
However, I won't do automated trading simply because of the capital gain taxes (that nobody seems to pay atm. but in principle you're responsible to track for all coin conversions of coins that are less than a year old) that I don't want to get into.
When did it all go wrong for Thinkpads? When did they stop being good? Now that commie chinks own them, I think they'll never recover.
Also, have you ever noticed that when on a rare occasion you see a THinkpad in public, the person using it is usually 50+ years old? Why?
>>60913377
Kek'd at that pic. Thats exactly how I imagine Chinkpad users.
yall fucks should switch to voidlinux right now
pic related except it's not clean void
Tried Void Linux yesterday.
So I installed a package that pulled a lot of fonts as depedencies.
xbps ran fontcache update on each and every font package installed. Arch certainly only runs fontcache updates in the end.
So I thought that these Void Linux shitteres don't know what they are doing and went back to Arch.
>>60918105
to be honest void is literally arch just a little bit mor flexible and a little bit more bloated from install
>>60918090
void is like solus, too autistic for mainstream users and not autistic enough for /g/

And? Is child porn all you do on your computer?
>it's unstable!!!
It's not, as long as you're not under-aged and you use the right desktop environment
>it....IT DOESN'T HAVE DRIVERS FOR MY WIFI CARD!!!
Who forces you to use the internet every day, fucking peat-gavel
@60918013
I like being productive on my PC
>>60918013
This is obvious b8 but still, if those are the only arguments you can think of, you have clearly never used linux and know nothing of computers. Go back to /v/

A friend of mine had his bitcoins stolen from a wallet on MultiBit Classic, his computer is homebound and on a safe network so how did this occurr?
Also:
The security model of MultiBit Classic is weaker than MultiBit HD so we only recommend using it if you have private keys that cannot be migrated.
Did somebody physically copy his private key?
>His image isn't over 120 gb

120 GB? Come back when it's 120 GP!

>NVIDIA finally released the updated NVDEC SDK (formerly CUVID), which allowed adding support for new codecs and proper 10/12-bit decoding without too much trouble, for those people that still cling to NVDEC/CUVID decoding.
>In addition to that, DXVA2 also supports VP9 10-bit decoding now - with the required hardware support of course.
>>60912529
THANK YOU BASED NVIDIA
>>60913322
I don't know anon.
This is mostly relevant to notebooks and other portable shit (that 9 out of 10 times don't come with nvidia GPUs anyway). Chances are your desktop can decode it just fine and the increased load from doing it in software is mostly irrelevant.
Since /g/ still has some slackers around, I have a few questions for you.
1. Why is there no effort at all to properly advertise Slackware? The website is a complete outdated shit and the community remains in the LQ forums
2. How do you manage packages in Slack? Sbopkg + Slackbuilds? How do you deal with orphans? It seems hell to find dependencies that are no more necessary
I really think Slack is awesome, but it seems to be loosing steam in the past years. I hope Pat and co. will be able to modernize it while keeping the slackway alive
It is not about being modern that is the whole point. I don't want to worry about new crap like systemd. Hell I didn't even want Pulse Audio, but here we are.
So to answer your question: I don't use slackware to use a package manager, and building from source really isn't as hard as you might think. Occasionally I do use a slack build though, and they work pretty well in my experience.
Also I like the website. I can find my way around it, and it doesn't assault me with pop ups so its better than 95% of the modern web right there.
>>60912357
I hope Slackware remains true to itself, and as far as possible from systemd. However, I really do think they should work on their website and community environment to bring new users to Slack.
