Yes. In my experience, many people still don't recognize any level of nuance in computer skills. They assume that because I know how to install an alternate browser and an ad blocker, then I must be some super elite hacker who can fix anything and everything with their computer. It's as if I assumed that just because someone knows how to drive stick shift, then they should know how to rebuild my transmission for me. So I usually just pretend I'm as tech-illiterate as anyone else.

Most of the time it's all pain no gain if you people know you can fix computers.

Yeah. The phrase "I write compilers" doesn't impress people.

I currently have all things Google at the moment, I'm thinking of changing everything over to Microsoft ecosystem. Was wondering if any of you /g/uys have this setup. For example, Outlook.com for your email, Onedrive instead of Google Drive, etc. Thanks.

Why don't they just scrap HURD? It's been in development for literally 27 years and it's not even remotely usable. Not even RMS uses it.

still an alternative if linux ever becomes dog shit
>>
>>62274109
Linux is already dogshit, if by "dogshit" you mean "too complex for its own good." But HURD takes software complexity to a whole nother level. Plus, the BSDs always exist, and they actually work.

>>62274073
Fuck you OP, we are waiting for it and you can't take us away.
HURD is the future and our last hope.

Welcome to /fag/ - Friendly Apple Thread.
Users of all levels are welcome to ask questions about Mac OS X/macOS and share their experiences.
*** Please be civil, notice the "Friendly" in every Friendly Apple Thread ***
If you would like to try out OS X/macOS you can do one of the following:
1) Install an OS X/macOS version of your choice in a Virtual Machine.
2) Dual boot a version of OS X/macOS of your choice along with Windows or Linux.
3) Go balls deep and either buy an Apple product or build your own Hackintosh.
>Should I buy an Apple product or build a Hackintosh.
An Apple product will receive direct long term support but on the other hand cost much more and offer a worse price/performance ratio than a self-built machine.
A Hackintosh is cheaper and more customizable (cases for example) and won't burn your wallet, but also won't receive direct updates and free upgrades to newer versions of the operating system from Apple. The process of setting up a hackintosh will require basic knowledge of partitioning and installing an OS with certain tools provided by a small, but helpful community.
For more detailed information, use your favorite search engine

Putin: AI Leader Will Rule the World

Russian President Vladimir Putin told schoolchildren in his country Friday that whichever country controls artificial intelligence first will "rule the world."
http://www.trunews.com/article/putin-ai-leader-will-rule-the-world
Russian President Vladimir Putin issued a stark warning to schoolchildren Friday on the first day of classes, saying the country that first masters artificial intelligence will "rule the world." All schools in Russia begin their new school year on Sept. 1, which is called “Knowledge Day.” In an open lecture to children across the country, he said “the future belongs to artificial intelligence” for all of humanity. He said:
>"Artificial intelligence is the future, not only for Russia, but for all humankind. It comes with colossal opportunities, but also threats that are difficult to predict. Whoever becomes the leader in this sphere will become the ruler of the world … The movement of the eyes can be used to operate various systems, and also there are possibilities to analyze human behavior in extreme situations, including in space … If we become leaders in this area, we will share this know-how with entire world, the same way we share our nuclear technologies today."
Advanced AI technology is reportedly a key component for Russia’s next-generation fighter jet, the MiG-41. Putin’s 45-minute speech—the standard length of an instructional hour in Russia—was delivered from Yaroslavl, approximately 160 miles northeast of Moscow. It was broadcast via satellite to more than a million students in 16,000 schools across Russia.

Remove Google. Easiest way to do that is to unlock it and flash Lineage.
