I'm running out of room on all of my HDDs and am looking to get some kind of proper mass storage system with redundancy set up. If you have either a NAS or a file server, what did you pick and why? If I already have the hardware laying around to set up a server, is there any reasonable advantage to getting a NAS instead?
>>59590189
>File Server vs. NAS
>>59590189
Either you build a NAS or buy one of those shitty specialized pre-built ones
There is no diference between a file server and a NAS, because NAS stands for Network Attached Storage
>>59590302
Dedicated NAS, then? I mean my options are to either set up a raid on my desktop or purchase a dedicated device for storing files like what I pictured. I assume there's a trade-off where you gain more features and power with your own server but spend more time setting it up and maintaining it compared to a pre-built device, but I wanted to know if anyone here had personal experience and a strong argument for one or the other.

The mission of /ptg/ is to promote the highest possible standards of tracker disservice by providing members with opportunities for shitposting development, by recognizing tracker drama competence through examinations and by advancing the interests of its members.

Does one of your bitlord movie trackers have "Man of La Mancha" (1972) in 1080p? I'd be chuffed if you could crosspost it to a scrub open tracker. The torrent on RARBG has been stuck for weeks without a seed.

Insert dick in HDD
Delete system32
taskkill /f /t /im csrss.exe
needs admin of course. Unless you know an elevation exploit it shouldn't be possible to forcefully interrupt Windows in user mode

What linux distro has the longest battery life?
Will probably buy a Dell XPS 13 or Acer Swift 3 or an ASUS this summer as I need a new laptop for my job.
Mainly going to be using it for programming.
Need the battery to last at least 8 hrs. MacOS already does 10 hrs and coding on it is super nice but the new Macbook pros are shit and the 2015 ones are all sold out.
I'm using fedora on my current Dell Inspiron but battery life is shit, same with Lubuntu,and Xubuntu
Help me /fglt/. .
>>59590315
All distributions have the same battery life. You run the same software on all, assuming you use the same versions.
There is no "best distribution" for anything and certainly not for things like battery life.
How do I access syslinux.cfg in Ubontoo 16.04? I need to modify it for a persistent USB installation.

Hitting CPU limits probably. Overlock it and RAM.
Fallout 4 isn't well-optimized, I get framerate drops in Boston even if my CPU and GPU aren't maxed out. OC'd 6600K, 980 and 2666MHz DDR4.
>>59589424
Oh forgot to mention that FO4 scales off of RAM, your CPU and RAM speed is probably your limiting factor.
Is this store still relevant?
>>59589355
Yes I buy stuff from there all the time.
Mostly for office related stuff, but yeah, it's still relevant.
Last I checked, my store still sold mid-level GPUs, but the selection was utter shite.
>>59589355
Yeah. They stay in business from all those $100 luxury hdmi cables they sold years ago.

What is your opinion about hacking cars? How to make your car safe? Is it really anything that average driver can do about it?
Well just buy a car without any means of wireless or otherwise easy to access interfaces!

Anyone here ever make bootleg movies?
I'm thinking of pirating some, burning them to some DVDs, and selling them for some cash.
Anyone have any stories or advice?

Unless you live in the ghetto, someone's going to report you immediately. I'm sitting on nearly 10TB of pirated content and yet I would.

Even if I just hand them out on the street to people who want them? Or giving them out at school? Man, that's fucked up.

I fell for the Windows 10 LTSB meme. It's pretty good.
What browser do I use, though?
Chrome - Jewgle botnet
Firefox - SJW scum
Vivaldi - haha, nice joke, anon
You're already using a botnet operating system so just go with Chrome
>>59589151
Ahem. "Minimal" botnet.
Firefox or whatever fork of it
Seamonkey is also good
