What does /g/ think of federated social networks? Is it the future of our communication?
Links for three btw:
GNU social: https://gnu.io/social/
Mastodon: https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon
Friendica: http://friendi.ca/
The drill is that they can communicate with with each other regardless of the software you use.
I only heard about diaspora, I'm really thinking about joining it, running and joining a social media which you/your friend have control on seems like a good idea
>waaaaah why facebook deleted muh atheism page waaah

Is there a difference between all of these? You said they can "communicate with each other" can they do the same thing with diaspora?
>>60364766
Mastodon is the only one with actual users and an usable interface.
It will force people to update to windows 10 and force them to accept automatic updates as a "good thing" and it will become the new norm.
Well played MS... well played

what the fuck is going on? why is everyone talking about this?
>>60363224
I think you're right. Because manual update is broken...

So W10 is safe? Nice.

What the fuck, Microsoft?
>>60362962
who cares?
>>60363009
People who have actual network with actual operating systems to manage.
There's no equal to group policies and Active Directory.

greeting /g/entomen
can you help me to come up with 4 domain names? i'm looking for:
- kawaii domain name (e.g. good for making anime site)
- nerd domain (e.g. good for portfolio)
- weaboo (some cool japanese word/thing perhaps)
- professional domain (for personal email/smtp) [i would like to purchase for 10 years, something like $0.88 year, trying to escape botnet)

Domain names are like women. All the good ones are taken, but you can still get one from a strange country if you like.
Anything .moe will fill the kawaii and weeb slots. (when it first came out there were a bunch of "what .moe domain are you getting?" threads). The trendy one in the tech industry is .io, but registrars know that so it's expensive. But really just having your own domain with something you built hosted there will be enough for a portfolio thing. For the last one... idk, do what you want.

What if Microsoft did this ransomware shit themselves?
They've been super pissed about the low adoption rate of Windows 10 and pretty butthurt perhaps that tens of millions of company computers around the world are using shit like XP, they're losing money in these areas. They know that people aren't obviously going to switch to Macs, because for many reasons that can't work out, and Linux, yeah no. So maybe they did this to force everyone to be on the latest OS. It seems insane and crazy, but I don't totally rule it out.
Listen here paint brush,
Install Gentoo
>>60362557
You say that as if anything can make large organizations with ossified bureaucracies deploy IT in a timely fashion. The NHS was already running XP without a support contract, and had been for over a year. This won't concentrate minds and get them to be serious about patching things in a timely fashion. They'll fire a few scapegoats, probably in upper management, and things will continue on as before.

is it dangerous to keep phone on charge permanently?
.
.

i have an old ugly s4 laying around and i want use it as a indoor cctv camera by this app called "at home" which streams live video on other phone and both phones doesn't have to be on same ip address. but the thing is this app is a battery drainer as the camera is on and its connected to wifi all the time. it goes 100 to 0 in 1 hr and I'm tired of plugging and unplugging the charger all the time cuz im scared of damaging the phone or just phone blowing up. but i heard that the lion batterys doesnt take extra charge or some shit.
what the fuck are you doing?
you can leave it plugged in, it has protection. now delete this thread you fucking retard.
>>60362549
i can leave it plugged in forever?
>>60362420

Is optical media a viable option for backup?
CD/DVD/Blu-Ray
>>60361696
Hard drives are better in every way
That depends on how many gigs of data you're trying to save. Optical is very slow.
>>60361696
yes, but no.
i recently went through all sorts of old stuff backed up onto cds, and backed it up onto a flash drive. yes, i got stuff that was from as far back as when i was in high school back in 02 and got over 15 years of stuff. but i had to go through almost 200 disks and some were so scratched up and shit to the point i could barely pull anything off it.
I cannot wrap my mind around how computer hardware ends up as software. Even reading about it for hours, I still don't understand. How do we turn raw materials and electricity into binary? Help me I feel like I'm going crazy
>>60361280
transistors. lots of transistors.

You can make life sized and gates with hobby electronics kits, maybe buy one and work from there. Once you get an understanding of electronics the idea of just miniaturizing and cramming in fucktons more stuff explains the rest.
>>60361312
Any kits you suggest?

Alright /g/, I'm begging for help here. I have no fucking clue how to fix my Windows store, Xbox app etc.
I can't add a Microsoft account in the settings and I can't log into and of Microsofts apps. It constantly spins and loads and when it does work I get this error message.
"You'll need the internet for this.
It doesn't look like you're connected to the internet. Please check your connection and try again.
0x800704cf"
I've been on with Microsoft's support for an entire day and none of them were of any help. I've tried any and all Powershell commands, registry and cache cleaning etc, I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling every single microsoft app and it doesn't work and many many many other methods.
I simply don't get it, no troubleshooting method has helped and I am out of fucking options. All of this started after I paused a download for a game in the Windows store because I realized I had started the install on the wrong drive so I just wanted to fix that. Every since that Windows has gone to shit. I've tried doing Microsoft's repair tool but it stalls at 0% and never does anything, I updated to the latest version and that only caused more issues.
For fuck sake, has anyone here had this issue? If so and you fixed it will you please tell me how? I've had enough of this shit.

Have you disabled telemetry stuff per chance? You might get that caught in the crossfire.
