The tech bubble is finally going to fucking pop.
Good. I would unironically sacrifice all of my freedoms to an authoritarian tyrant just to see liberals get butthurt.
Oh no, it's nothing
Again
The FCC couldnt even enforce the rules they tried to make in the first place, stop listening to people on reddit scream at the top of their lungs about how this is the most evil thing to ever happen
Okay idk if it's just a bad card or what but I got a Radeon card and I have constant problems with playing games cause they'll either freeze or lag badly. I've tried Crimson, Catalyst Center, and Evolved but nothing seems to reduce this issue.
What the fuck is up?
you fell for the poojet shilling

Because the lifespan of those is 5< years. And because my 3200rpm Seagate from 2004 is still working just fine. Shill elsewhere, pleb.

Thoughts on this build?
My friend is looking to get it. The price point is right, and he's not very comfortable building his own PC by hand.

Best budget case?

Not too bad. You could tweak it in a few areas if you were building it yourself, but it's basically equivalent to this build:

What is /g/'s opinion on smart watches?
You look like a huge fucking nerd wearing them. What, are gonna hack the FBI on your watch computer thingie that doesn't even have a week of battery life?
Have one, like it.
It makes some things more convenient but it's not exactly life-changing like a smartphone is. You have to treat it like an accessory to your phone.
I like to be able to see text messages and even reply to some without digging in my pocket for my phone which is sometimes rude, but glancing at your watch is much less rude and you can excuse yourself if needed.

what's next? charging your glasses? gloves?
Is Kaspersky anti-virus any good? Cons and pros? Do I have to worry about the whole Russian spying thing or are they allegations?
>>60470238
all antiviruses are a shit botnet, just use commonsense
if you're on win10 you already have windows defender which is as good as any purchasable antivirus
Install Common Sense
Been using it for over 10 years and I can vouch for it being pretty damn good. Bullgaurd is apparently the best but it's not very user-friendly. Take your pick

It's because he downloaded Chicken Run, not because he downloaded at all.
Why fucking Chicken Run of all things?
I mean it's a great movie and all but it's so old that you could probably just order it on DVD for a few cents and pay less than the electricity costs that is required to run your PC

Who gives a fuck about that piece of shit.
>>60469725
I care, fuck my balls and lick my ass, fight me faggot arch user.
My grandfather used to own a litography business with his father back in the day, where they used litographic limestones to do halftone printing.
Eventually modern technology drove them out of business and they sold their press and closed the business. In the process he disposed of their film archive containing cecades of originals, color separation films, and so on. He smashed the limestones and used them as filler for the foundation of his garage, as he was "sick of it all" in the end. In his later years, he regrets destroyig his lifes work, but it is what it is.
Anyways, over some time I've been able to track down and get a hold of a lot of their work. I've scanned it in very high resolution, and now have a nice data set of halftone images.
The problem now is that all descreening algorithms on the market are pure shit, and common Photoshop tricks like applying Gaussian blur and downsampling is evem more shitty.
So I've been thinking: It seems to me that all the information needed to produce a raster image from a halftone image is there. The only things that are lost when making halftone images are 1) resolution and 2) color accuracy.
It seems to me that the distance of any 2 points in a halftone image depends on the radius of the point.
The angle of each of the CMYK separations usually follow one of only a few different standards, pic related was the most common one used.
So it seems to me that with this information, any halftone image coud be converted to a digital image.
I'm trying to write an algorithm for this as we speak, but any comments or insights would be apreciated. I can provide some test data for anyone who would be interested in helping me out. I plan on releasing it as a free as in freedom software if I can get it to work.

What did /g/ do with their 5.25 bay(s)?
I'm not sure what to buy or what to do to make it useful.
>>60469188
Buy a drive bay drawer. Put dragon dildo in it.
>>60469188
Should've just bought a case with a third front fan slot.
>>60469188
First I stuck hotswap bays in there. Then I figured out I like the one that rests on the desk better. Then I stuck fan controllers in there before I figured out I just wanted to set a fan curve in the motherboard and be done with it. Now I just have a nice sleek cover on the from and removed all the bays.
Been building computers for work and I have collected a bunch of sheet metal bay frames. Going to put all of them into a mountain mods duality case I have stashed and make a kick ass nas/linux server eventually
