Comically huge touchpad
Shit keyboard
Can't use USB and wifi at the same time
Other hw flaws, too

So overall an excellent apple product

compromised design
killed aesthetic balance
poor thermal control

jobs is spinning in his grave, thank fuck the mac pro is turbine shaped to help him spin faster

>>59892919
Overpriced crap + nice big touchpad = meh

Modern PC games are a joke compared to back when you had to do everything in software and write half the game in assembly just to get it to run better on a 486.

>>59892915
Holy god I think that method gave me cancer

No.
Modern game development is literal click and drag with really atrocious event handling thrown in because it's all done through frameworks now, nobody who makes games has to be intelligent about it.
Even the physics engines aren't that intricate, because once you get the basics down it's all a bunch of maths tricks.

Now, if you don't know mathematics very well, I could see why this kind of thing might blow your mind. But even rudimentary multivariable calculus and some linear algebra is enough to build an incredibly robust 3d engine from scratch, especially with modern hardware.

Now is this good or bad?

>>59892986
bad

I only have one box checked, intel.
That is if you don't count my sandboxed windows vm inside my gentoo install.

2 new monitors. I'm using shitty mismatched monitors right now and it's driving me crazy.

>>59892872
Smart watch or some kind of tablet. If it was 100 bucks more I'd get the cheapest surface they have.

>>59892872
Ryzen 5, b350 mobo, 8gb ddr4, and a psu. I'm fine with my r7 260x

Nothing?

>>59892815
the bus costs a lot of power but intel can afford it

>>59894193
Can you really afford wasting so much power on a core communication bus when your primary purpose is to get as much cores in as possible?
I mean if this were IBM and they were making 300W CPU then I'd agree, but these things are limited to a certain TDP

>>59892697
>Mini ITX
But why?

mITX is a meme. Those boards cost more than ATX boards and all the heat is concentrated on a smaller space. This is bad for the components in the long run and requires your coolers to spin faster which also makes your PC louder.

It's fine if you want to deal with Realtek NICs and don't want to overclock.

>>59892685
>programming languages
Rust

>>59892685
Not trying to be a dick, but you know "AI" is a buzzword, there's no intelligence at all? Anyway, you should try Python. It's quite easy to learn, okay performances and is heavily used by the data science community so a lot of scientific "toolkits" are available for it.

>>59893023

I'll add that you should start getting comfortable with math and build a good knowledge on basic machine learning algorithms before trying to program something. During this, you could use matlab/ octave for quick experiments.

I can do exactly that with my macbook and iphone

Fuck off, Luke Hobowalker.

Well, technically they are controlling your computer to send private info about what you do.

GNU is even shorter.

>>59892166
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX. Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

But I already do.

Nexus 7 2012 is shit

Circuit City in the early 90s on a windows 3.1 computer is how I first learned how to use a mouse via an employee showing little me solitaire while dad shopped.

Use touchscreen ffs

I have this cheap microsoft wireless mouse, works fine

>>59891967
You mean touchpad? I use a laptop so I'd want a mouse as I'm not comfortable with a touchpad.

>>59891907
no

>>59891914
where does it come from, then?

>>59891943
from me
