why in the fuck would you?
are you going to carry that thing around?

Would it be possible to block hosts directly at your router so that any device that is connected to your wifi has system wide adblock?
>>59993930
yes
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/StevenBlack/hosts/master/hosts
just plop that into your router's hosts file and you're set
here ya go pal hope this helps

Why the fuck are apple a bunch of thieves and charlatans
The iPhone has worse specifications than a phone worth less than 200
>iphones don't lag over time like android
Android doesn't lag if you have above lollipop and isn't a shit stock ROM that isn't aosp or cm based
>it does what I want it to do
You pay 900 for a Snapchat box
It does nothing a phone worth less than 300 can't do
>I really like the layout of iOS
Here is a newsflash fucktard
Android and iOS are fucking identical
You have the apps and settings just like every other phone
Just one costs 900 and the other costs less
>really good build quality
Phones aren't fucking supposed to bend, it shouldn't be easy to do at all
Why? Because the lithium ion battery if damaged is the equivalent to a bomb
Build quality and how something feels in the hand are very different things
>it gets some of the highest benchmarks
Another newsflash
There is a very big difference between a number and real world use, that 10000 on geekbench or whatever means fuck all if all you use is Facebook and Snapchat
Apple has a monopoly one one group of people
Young girls and people who know fuck all about technology
They appeal to people that are driven by the reptilian part of their brain that tells them "This isn't poisonous, I've eaten it before." So they buy the same phone every year for the same ludicrous price
"Overpriced" is what people suffering from buyers remorse and a fuckton of pride use instead of not worth the money
Apple have done nothing new since the iPhone 4
All they did with that was glass
And then I don't even think that was a first
>3D touch
As if you're supposed to put pressure on any screen
3D touch = screen damage
>ITT: Androidfag OP is SERIOUSLY assravaged about iPhone's popularity
>>59993691
Like I said
Reptilian part of peoples brains
Beyond any of OPs raging, I ditched apple because the only real customization you can do comes with jailbreaking.
Even without rooting you can customize the crap out of your android with different launchers and shit like klwp.
Idgaf if people buy iPhones or not but android certainly is more adaptable to an individual user than ios can dream of being
If I put some electrical tape on this, will it be okay? Right now I have to hold the cord in a weird way to get my laptop to charge.
It's fine as-is, there's still a coating on the inside
Yes.
Huh. Perhaps some of the wires are broken inside. Why don't you fix it yourself? Only requires a bit of soldering.
It's worth the try. If you end up failing a new charger isn't that expensive anyways.

I got a pm on AB saying my IP was leaked but why does it matter? That IP was from ages ago and I've probably had 10 different home IP addresses since then.
>>59993630
It doesn't really. Worst thing is getting your email leaked
When solving a computing problem, is it better to have a strong algorithm developer or a strong programmer?
What the fuck is your concept of "strong programmer"?
great thread, great stuff
>>59993608
As it's a computing problem you would want a strong programmer who knows computers. The algorithm Dev can go fuck himself bc the programmer only needs to talk to the problem domain specialist.
Algorithm development is a meme skill from shit mathematicians who know computing has left them far behind

what is the best book on algorithms?
the art of computer programming. i bought all the volumes about 2 years ago, and can already tell that they're going to be good when i get around to reading them.

Be more specific. For me, the answer to your general question is a tie between the ACLS and TNCC manuals.
/pcbg/: Post your component list; rate other anons'; ask questions in general.
State the PURPOSE of your PC & BUDGET. State COUNTRY if not USA.
List GAMES/SOFTWARE you use often. List resolution & hz if gaming.
Seeking build improvements? Clarify goal: lower price or improved specs?

Currently worthwhile CPUs:
>G4560 for budget builds (<$500) unless G4620/i3-7100 is heavily discounted
>i3 are only worthwhile for dwarf fortress and single-purpose emulator boxes
>i5 aren't worthwhile. Get Ryzen 5, drop down to G4560, or up to Ryzen 7
>No R5 1400 unless discounted
>i7-6700k is good but pricey. If over budget: consider locked 7700; not chasing 4.8Ghz+ capable when you weren't gonna overclock, or get R5
>Cheap Z270 board is still good for faster memory in games w/ locked 7700, but aren't for overclocking (VRMs suck)
>R7/Xeon for compute/multitask/mixed use
Currently worthwhile GFX cards:
>RX470-RX580, 1070, 1080, 1080TI
>1060 is worth considering over a 580 if same/cheaper in your country, and/or you just play games it's better on for the price. 1050Ti is for mITX builds
>RX470/570 is usually all you need for 1080p@60hz.
>Nvidia GPU + Ryzen has issues in many games atm
>Budget builds: consider integrated graphics over a card weaker than RX470, unless price/performance is better (discounted/used)
>May for Vega
General:
>No brand/model loyalty. Parametric filters on pcpartpicker can help

help me lower the cost /g/
upgrading from existing (dying) server/main pc
have several sata drives, multiple usb devices that need power, and lots of compiling
no gaming/video editing/music or such other high load/high graphics, but i do enjoy 1080p x264/5
mainly I want to replace the long lasting gigabit ga-p45/intel q6600 combo i've had for 7+ years (which is starting to go)
my current case also needs replacing or i'd keep it
psu i currently have is 500watt modular, dont think that's enough to power everything anymore
i'm looking for longevity/performance over latest/greatest
My core2duo shitbox just died. HDD started making the wonderful clicks of death and no longer boots.
Threw it out into my driveway from my second story window.
So.
I need a new machine on a 70$ budget.
Thinking core2quad, cheapest mobo I can find and any psu. I have a bunch of ddr2 lying around and ill build it in a box.
Any suggestions on a mobo?
Probably gonna need a cooler too.
This is gonna be over 70$ I think
>>59993654
switching to the g4560 lowers the price to 378$, any other changes? i still would prefer quad core but i can live with this
how upgradeable would this combo be (in terms of years of upgrades)?
I'm about to install it. What should I expect? xD
>>59993336
Something happening.
>>59993336
why did you have to add the 'xD"?
this isn't Twitch chat
Why, though?
ok this will be my first build and this is just ment for some solid 1080p gaming and a lil photoshop for shcool do you guys have any critisism or recomadations
Might wanna wait for Ryzen3 my man
seems reasonable
do you really need a cpu cooler? should have stock on an i3
your memory is faster than your motherboard is rated
does a non-botnet "smart" thermostat (like Nest) exist? Or do I just need to stick with a normal thermostat to not be botnetted upon?
I want those features like changing temp from phone and the (supposed) power savings.
raspberry pi
i'm not touching anything IoT for at least another 5-10 years
>>59993284
You realize the new digital divide is between those who don't accept the botnet and those who do, right?
You realize that fearing ubiquitous networking and connectivity in 2017 makes you tech illiterate, right?
>>59993073
>>59993073
