How much power and big would a modern processor equivalent of an electro-mechanical computer be?

Very

It's a power and big computer
Is that a girl(male)?
start using gentoo
I will when my t60 comes in.
I switched to Arch because I am a brainlet and decided it was a good idea to remove udev and replace it with eudev to get WINE working. Instead it made my computer stop booting.
The real unfortunate part was that installing Radeon drivers on Gentoo was easier and they are not configuring properly on Arch.
I blame being a brainlet, followed closely by systemd for no real reason.

B-but I don't want to spend time reading manuals to install an Operating System.
Just give me a wizard to install it and a GUI to maintain/configure it, is that too much to ask?

If you are in the market for an ultra-wide monitor than the Samsung CF791 may be the monitor for you.
The Samsung CF791 monitor uses a VA panel which gives it an extraordinary contrast ratio of near 3000:1. Most monitors use TN or IPS panels which give very low contrast in comparison of around 1000:1 and IPS panels also have the problem of “light bleed” in the corners which can seriously detract from the quality of the image.
The Samsung CF791 is a curved monitor with a curve of 1500R making it the most curved monitor on the market. This makes for an incredibly immersive experience with a lot of detail witting within your field of view.
The CF791 is an excellent monitor for gaming with extremely low input lag and very low motion blur with a 4ms response time. It has a high resolution of 3440 x 1440 pixels with a 100 hz panel. This panel refresh rate means you will have an extremely smooth image if your hardware can run the game you are playing at 100 fps.
This is certainly the best monitor that I have ever owned and I would highly recommend it to others. However quality is not cheap with a price tag coming in just over $800 on amazon.

Haha long boy

What does /g/ use when designing electronics?
You do design your own equipment, right?
>>59714593
Kicad for circuit design and Logisim for simulation, mostly because I'm too much of a poorfag to spend thousands of dollars on anything else
>>59714593 Eagle, Microcap and Memeduino Ide.
>>59714717
>Proprietary software.
But why?
Anything I should know or install?
Used KDE Plasma and Unity before. Trying to bite the bullet and drop the W10 botnet again.
I converted my disk to a VHD with Disk2VHD, I plan to dump it into VirtualBox or KVM so I can still use my MS SQL setup for my Database course.

QXL drivers for your VM.
It will make everything lovely.

Bookmarked, I'll look into it. Thanks

6 years, it finally fails. What's going on? Does Trillian still work? Never paid for that shit but what do you guys use?
This hasn't worked for ages. I think it used to run of XMPP. They canned that sometime ago.

It worked for me last week. Check the github page.

How long until weaponized police drones?
Taser drones will be the best.
Not long, anon.

Brits will find a workaround for lack of firearms in task force by attaching flamethrowers to drones and creating indestructible terminators.

A-Are they talking about us?
AFAIK this is a Peruvian Knitting board, so... no?

no. we all here are unemployed.
To be honest senpai, this article was written in 2013. Most of the 1337 hackers from anonymoose left this shithole years ago.
>tfw this fucking Thinkpad R400 running on a Penryn Core 2 Duo, 4 GiB RAM, spinning rust HDD and Windows 10 64 bit is just as fast in daily usage as my Thinkpad X220 with a Sandybridge CPU, 8 GiB RAM, SSD, and Linux x64
What gives? This is horrifying. I want more performance for daily tasks but everything's like they're stuck for years now without any improvements.

P.S. The only difference is when I play Sup Comm or Dorf Fort. But then I rarely have the time for that these days.
>>59713560
Try to play a 1080p@60FPS video on both and tell me if you see a difference.
>>59713794
Nope. Hardware accelerated decoding takes care of that.

How is it Z270 motherboards aren't in short supply? Is Ryzen out selling intel chips by a large margin?
How long do they need to have the board finalized specs and chipset before they can start mass producing them?
How much hand holding do their developers need to specify mounting hardware?
Why are poor/trashy people obsessed with All-in-One PCs? I sell PCs for a living and the only people who seem to be interested in our AIOs are either White trash, dirt-poor Mexicans or some combination of the two.
The thing is, they're not that cheap either. What's the obsession?
I find them useful for travel, bringing them to classes, etc.
It looks futuristic and advanced. It's the same reason those FX-4300 + radeon HD gaymen builds with rgb lights are so popular.
Ppl think its more faster cos it looks faster
Does Windows have any good development tools?
Does it have better than good support for C++, Python, et cetera? Does Node.js and other web development tools work good? Git?
What can I expect from Visual Studio?

Damn that's an epic meme, mind if I save it?
There are a lot of computer discussions on this board about models of computers and hardware components. These debates totally ignore the purpose of a computer and instead emphasis the physical aspects.
I'd like to announce that I have discovered the reason why these normies are so common all over technology boards: They are car people. Car people are intellectually incapable of finding the purpose of an object beyond it's most surface, primitive functionality. They are machinists and think that everything within a machine must be the most important aspect of the object. They know little to nothing of code or what computers are used for and often call operating systems garbage based on their physical appearances.
Thoughts?

>>59712620
Mfw he called brand whores car people.
>>59712620
It would be more accurate to call them /fa/ people. If they only care about the basic functionality, they wouldn't give a shit about the brand.
