Quick /g/ let's talk computer mice.
What are you currently using right now and how much did it cost?
5 button master race.
Mice are for /v/edditors.

Bought a savu because its the same but bigger, and the groove on the left goes down to the pad instead of raising up your thumb.
logitech g400s to replace my mx518.

Now that the dust has settled, will you keep Waiting or go nvidia?
>>60670534
I'll stick with what I've got
>>60670534
Buy AMD? I've been trying for 3 weeks. Finally gave up and got a 1070. Maybe in 2018 RX 580s will be in stock again.
Good on them for selling out I guess. Hope a lot of LiteCoin is mined.
I have 9800gt
Why does only Apple uses this GPU? It's a 35W decent graphics chip, why wouldn't anyone else want it?
Did AMD make a GPU just for Apple?

It's not "decent", nvidia's offerings shit all over it (at this power envelope), and if a PC maker puts a discrete chip in there they want high performance, otherwise there's no point.
But apple hates nvidia and also they buy the cheapest stuff around. They just needed something that could handle more external displays.
Reminder that last year they were putting graphics chips from 2012 in their mc pros (fucking cape verde xt, the very same chip that was in the radeon hd 7770) that would otherwise go to the trash at that point. They probably got them for free.

>nvidia's offerings shit all over it (at this power envelope)
The closest nVidia comes to the Radeon Pro in term of power envelope is the 1050M, which is still nearly double the TDP, and the Radeon still beats it in raw performance.
This is why amd radeon suck and we wait

Hbm was a big mistake

Literally the best thing since DDR SDRAM.
Are all of these horrible?
What I want: a GPU that can handle Blu-ray rips and/or 10bit, USB 3.0, 2GB or more RAM, external antennas, HDMI, onboard storage should be ample to install MX Player.
Is that too hard China?
Amazon firetv. Wireless is usually troublesome for high bitrate media. You'll need 802.11ac and close proximity to the AP. Use Ethernet if all possible.

Planning on using an external hard drive or a usb flash drive, does the Fire TV support exFAT or NTFS?
The files are more the 4GB.
So, now that the dust has settled, what does /g/ think of long-term implications of WannCry and other ransomware?
What's amazing to me is that the ransomware author(s) only managed to extract 55 BTC which is around $122K. That's it. When they're caught, they'll end up in prison for life... for $122K!
Anyway, I think we can all agree that Microsoft suffered the biggest damage from this. They lost a lot of their brand image.
What does /g/ think?
I think fuck the NSA.
>>60668138
Huh? What are you talking about?
>>60668138
>implying the goal wasn't to put BTC in the news again
WannaCry is the only reason why 1 BTC is $2200, so if the criminals were holding a lot of it, they may have made much more than $122k
I have an idea that would be cool.
People could set up raspberry pis in coffee shops and people could connect through ssh and mess with terminal applications for fun.
I rigged up my own that runs a terminal OS I made.
Anyone agree?
Comment if you're interested with more in depth info.
Why?
Better idea is to set a pi with a wifi sniffer or MITM to squeeze out credentials from Kylas and Connors. The real challenge is powering the device.
>>60668065

>mess with terminal applications for fun
this is the worst idea ever
8/10 if bait
Does /g/ know the solution to this problem?
>>60667736
There isn't nearly enough information here to help you.
Is this this a fresh install?
BIOS of UEFI?
What's your partition scheme?
Did you manually setup GRUB or did an installer set it up?
etc.
>>60667736
1) You'd have better luck if you gave literally any fucking information whatsoever
2) Rescatux
3) Consider Gentoo
4) >>>/wsr/
>>60667736
looks like your grub rescue doesn't even have drivers to read the filesystem...
insert another drive as a primary and boot from that one

Cant install gentoo on the machine cause fell for the Thinkpad meme
>>60666573
just go with arch which is what it's based on, or any other good distro
do not trust distros that are based off of other distros and have green logos. do not trust them

Has there ever been an effort to streamline productivity software on linux and for open source in general?
As it is now, the GUIs all look completely different, the fucking shortcuts are all over the place with very little consistency, file formats are mostly incompatible ... why is there so little cooperation between the devs of the big productivity software projects like gimp, scribus, krita, blender inkscape etc... ? It seems like such an obvious and mutually beneficial thing to do; both for the developers and for the end users.
I feel like on linux there's two types of quality software - the big projects that make up the system and it's core components, which are usually looked after by big ass companies who contribute because they use linux themselves; and then there's small, single-focus projects like transmission which are great because the makers are passionate about what they do and it's a labour of love.
All the larger projects that would need a certain level of organisation and professionalism are mediocre at best and used only by people who decidedly want an open source solution, or people who cant afford the real deal, like schools or small companies who are perpetually broke/struggling financially. If someone caring only about usability and productivity was given the choice between, for example, gimp and photoshop, they'd go with photoshop 9 out of 10 times.
It's ridiculous how foss people who pride themselves in their sense of community and cooperation are actually completely fucking incapable of establishing actual high level collaborative projects and efforts of standardisation are always doomed to fail because sure enough for every motivated, willing foss dev there's a dozen autists will flip their shit and fork the ever living jesus out of it.

How the fuck do I debug a neural network and keep track of everything so I can ensure that everything is working as intended? Is this how skynet begins?
>>60665961
Pretty much. https://www.technologyreview.com/s/604087/the-dark-secret-at-the-heart-of-ai/
Create a neural network to do the debugging
Write a neural network that debugs neural networks.
So I'll have to leave behind a .txt file with all psw to our social media and shit. I didn't choose to do this nor am I in the position to choose.
what's the best way to encrypt a .txt file which can be opened in Linux, Windows and OSX without extra effort
can you guys suggest something?
>>60665889
name it "NortonAV_installer.exe.txt"
>>60665889
>what's the best way to encrypt a .txt file which can be opened in Linux, Windows and OSX without extra effort
I don't understand the question: you want the file content to be encrypted but that it can be opened by any document program regardless of the OS being used?
The options are either you deliver a binary/script for each OS that decodes your file OR you don't encrypt at all.
