Will internet completely kill cable?
>>59313334
Already has. Next shit thread.
Yes already. I won't happen overnight or anything (there are people who still ready physical newspapers), but a separate dedicated data stream is obviously something that is unnecessary (since the vast majority of internet traffic is video feeds anyway).
Already did. (((Cable))) companies btfo.
Can someone tell me of a non-cancerous place where I can read about programming?

This bundle worth it?
If not, can someone suggest a good monitor/DAC combo roughly around the same price?
>>59312811
I can't speak for the UR22, but the HS5s are good entry level monitors. I'm using the HS8s and they're great, they remind me very much of the HD600s neutral sound signature, don't expect much bass out of the HS5 though.
If these are your first monitors, what matters as much as the speakers themselves is acoustically treating the room, otherwise you'll hear all sorts of reflections and sloppiness across the chart. Even the greatest speakers in the world will sound like poop in an untreated room.
Also that bundle doesn't seem to save any money, in fact it costs 0.02 cents over buying them separately..
it's decent, the HS5's don't have too much grunt in the lower frequencies, they're clean though
The Steinberg UR22's are OK, lack of I/O and the Mic-preamps are pretty bad as with somewhat higher latencies
Probably better off with a Focusrite 2i4 [for the 1/4" TRS Outputs] at that pricepoint
>>59312811
Geez that's pretty pricey. I'd get some Andrew jones pioneer bookshelves, a Dayton 8 or 10 inch sub, and the $100 Dayton Dac/amp. Should be a little less and you'll have a good sub and great bookshelves..

I've been thinking. Browsers these days all fucking suck and I think a big problem is that there's no real incentive for anyone to make something that will not make money one way or another.
The way they go about it these days is to sell user data, get payments from search engines etc.
But let us pretend that there was a browser that just fucking works, has all the customisation you need, doesn't collect data and doesn't force any search engines down your throat etc. Pretend it's the perfect browser. But to use it you'd have to pay say 10-15$ a year. Would you do it?
Now for the sake of discussion set aside all basic knee-jerks of software should be free etc. Give it a think, /g/.

Why should a company charging $10-15 a year be able to produce a better product than Google can? De-googled chromium variants solve the privacy issue.

When are browsers going to stop being shit?
Firefox is incredibly fucking laggy, slow, memory-leaks like mad, and performs like shit both on tablets and on my top-specs gaming laptop. It doesn't matter how good your computer is, Firefox is ALWAYS slow.
...but I keep using it because of Video Download Helper, uBlock Origin, the bookmarks toolbar, and the ability to customize it in various ways.
I just want Firefox exactly the way it is but without the memory leaks and the lag that is ALWAYS present with it, no matter how good your computer is.
muh lag
muh memory leaks
why the fuck are you using it?

Should we abandon it now after the CIA vault7 release? systemd was mentioned in the leak.
It was designed by a social justice warrior faggot that works for RedHat, a company with known links to the intelligence community. It runs at PID 1 and has its tendrils in everything, creating a wide attack surface. It was pushed on the Linux community virtually overnight despite massive outcry. It's basically a CIA and NSA backdoor built into Linux.
Why do people bend over backwards and accept Poettering's CIA cock up their ass?
Gee, I can tell by your post OP that you have no vendetta against Poettering or anything he's worked on, let's reply to this thread seriously...
What if we could audit the systemd code, what if there was a license that let us do that?
Are you really fucking stupid enough to think that if the CIA is contributing code allowing them to access backdoors to systemd, they won't do it to whatever the fuck init system we replace it with?
Did you even read the fucking documents? They had a backdoor to GRUB too! Guess we better stop booting our PCs with programs, and make a system that works by us smashing rocks against the HDD because they'll never hack our rocks!
What I'm saying, OP, is you're a fucking retard.
https://wikileaks.org/ciav7p1/cms/page_3375253.html
systemd is clearly a backdoor or at least a deliberately shit component with a huge attack surface. No one who takes themselves seriously should be using it on their system.

Admit it. You want one.
Not really
just for a second. then i realized how shitty they are.
All the old tech you ever wanted now with inbuilt backdoors!
