Do any normal people use Linux or is it all toothless crackheads and jobless 30 year old men with Asperger's ?
Aren't android and mac linux based?
>>60009985
>android
yes
>mac
UNIX
>>60009976
yeah. schools use em.
at least here in germany where we are to cheap to buy windows keys and to afraid to pirate shit.
Not that i bother though.
So what will VR become?
Can't do anything fast enough to replace a desktop, can't play anything other than shooting galleries, and lol at VR video content everyday.
Or will it be something so disruptive akin to smartphones?
not only is the technology not there yet, it has been cuck'd by sjw's
ded industry
It's a gimmick like 3d.
>>60009820
its a stupid dead gimmick
they are trying to force it REALLY hard but its not working since it looks dumb and uncomfortable
same with shit like google home they are shilling hard everywhere
What Cool Things could you do with a laptop with a current generation i7 if both you and it were sent back in time to 1995?
>>60009575
Not much actually
>>60009575
Give it to AMD.
Probs sell it and invest in whatever company you sold it to

Try the torrent and if that's also different then it could've been compromised

That must be a real fun cosplay.

>make some change to file
>ctrl + s
>go to terminal
>python script.py
>enter
>repeat every time i make some sort of meaningful change
Is there no way to streamline this process?
For example, when I used to do webdev you can run a script that monitors for any changes to .css files and automatically refresh as soon as i hit ctrl + s.
Any input is much appreciated.
>>60009413
ctrl + s
enter
>>60009413
you want to monitor for file changes then execute code when changes are found?
inotify?
>>60009879
this guy has it.
look up file watchers and make one to run your stuff. I almost always do this to auto run my tests on filesave

Hey /g/, so I went ti my local craigslist and foubd pic related.
It's a Sharo's laptop from 198x, it comes with the original power cord and has dos or windows on it.
Is there anything special I can do with it, or is it just junk by now because I am really tempted to buy it, since it's only 60 dollars or so.
Buy it as a collectors item, maybe put it up for display in your office.
There's nothing special you can do with it functionally.
If it fuckin works? Hell yeah buy that shit up.
If you like to collect this kind of old shit thats a pretty neat find.
Definitely worth the 60$ if its in good shape and actually runs.
But as the first anon said, functionally theres not much you can do with it unless you have other hardware from the era, even word processing would be some oldschool format shit
>>60009262
pretty nice looking box
there's plenty of DOS software online to play with, it's a computer like anything else so what's special is up to you

Windows has just added a new excellent feature that is going to replace the need of installing third-party apps. On top of that, it's a feature that improves your sleep and consequently your health.
Linux users can only dream about having such ease of use.

Do you have Downs syndrome or did you just receive your education in the US?
OP literally made it explicit that this is about getting rid of fuc.ks or any other third-party shit. It's built-in now.

What're technolo/g/y's thoughts on replacing your ISP's router with a router of your own choice for security and anonymity reasons?
>>60009055
There's a good argument to be made that you should never use any ISP-provided equipment if you can help it. They only care about security to the extent needed to keep themselves out of the news. Firmware updates are an expense, they won't bother with them if they think they can get away with not doing so. And the thing they care about most is reducing costs from people who change something and then call customer service. Result being that ISP equipment is both insecure and inflexible.
Buy your own equipment. Preferably a standalone modem. If you can't, but your ISP's shitbox in bridge mode and plug it into a pfSense machine or something similar.
>>60009132
What router/modem would you suggest?
>>60009156
>modem
Depends. ISPs very much want you to rent your shit, but most should have a list of modems that will work with their service. (not every cable modem will work with every cable ISP, if I recall correctly) Cuntcast did, at least. Pick one on the list that seems to have good reviews, and be very firm with them that you don't want to rent their "home gateway" crap.
>router
Well pfSense runs on any old x86 machine that has at least two ethernet ports. That can be something you have lying around, that you put together from spare parts, or that you purpose-build. For home use it does not need to be very powerful. Anything from this millennium will work. If you're a do-it-yourselfer you can of course configure any Linux or BSD box as a router manually. That's quite a bit more difficult, but the Arch crowd likes it. pfSense has its own installer and web interface that makes this shit a lot easier.
pfSense supports some wireless cards, but it's a lot easier to pick a wireless router that you like and plug it into a pfSense interface. If you go that route, you should pick a router that works well with OpenWRT. Stock wi-fi router firmware is all shit, 100% of it. It's not as critical to replace it when its behind pfSense as it is when its directly between you and the internet, but its still a good idea.
live in a house with other roomates. everyoen uses same router\wifi
can they see my shit on my pc or phone?
>>60008959
Anyone on the same network can see any unencrypted traffic you send or receive. Unless there's a firewall between clients on the same access point (I'd be shocked if there was, usually cheap routers only firewall things between the internet and the local network) they can also send any traffic they like to your machine, which means they can try any exploits or whatnot that they care to. (or, malware that infected their machines can try any exploits it knows to spread to yours.)
>>60008959
Depends how dedicated they are, what security are you using?
They would be able to see any content you send over the network using software like ettercap and Wireshark, I'm almost sure they don't know how to do this though.
I don't even think it's possible with any software available on Windows.
If you browse to a website through HTTPS, the content you send is encrypted, they would be able to know you browse 4chan, but not anything else other than that. If you browsed 4chan through normal HTTP, they would be able to see everything you're doing on 4chan, every thread/board you browse, and everything you post.
That's why HTTPS is important.
HI I was using my wife's laptop the other day and noticed that she had been viewing inappropriate material. In the search bar when I was trying to go to 'bing.com' I saw that she had visited 'BLACKED.com'. I would like to know if there is a way to block certain websites on her laptop. I think this adult material is unsuitable for her to be looking at and her son also uses this laptop. THANKS

None of those are "popular trends", also how is USB-C an LG invention
Also why the fuck do you even care about consumer shit and """trends""" in phones, are you retarded
This thread has no relevance
>>60008826
the S8 doesn't have a 2:1 aspect ratio... it's 1.85:1
You can't even get the basics right OP, you useless fuck.
