You just need to do it better next time Anon. Gambare
So my mostly tech illiterate parents have friends that are using this with third party add-ons for TV (the big thing naturally being sports) and are asking me about it and if I can install it, now I know jack shit about all these distros and the like so can anyone tell me about this shit?
>>59119143
You can't call others tech illiterate and then ask questions like this OP.

How would you like being tech support for your parents for the foreseeable future?
If yes, it's totally easy to do.
If no, tell them not to do it.
It's easy enough to setup a box. Basically just take any kinda computer and install it like you would Windows and then add the add-ons but if something gets shutdown because of piracy, you're going to have to keep up on what works and What doesn't and they are going to complain forever as to why their favorite channel doesn't work anymore
Been thinking about picking up like a 1TB SSD to replace my current HDD and use my HDD on a USB dock or keep it for excess storage.
But I'd prefer to just clone my current drive to the SSD with like Acronis True Image or something. I've heard it works and some people say going to HDD to SSD is a bit wonky.
>>59119035
it may be wonky on Windows because it has it's own drivers or something. It's common practice for Linux/osx/bsd/plan9/etc users.

I've had loading impacts in games and an SSD would fix it. Plus I do backups often.

Anyone here work for Amazon?
Are the horror stories true?
I got hired part time in the shipping department
>>59118223
alright im your man ... i worked for Amazon in HR and i have hired lots and lots of poor fags like you.
Pay is decent for the work you do but the work you do is hell.
Major problems with Amazon for the people in the FC's is that there simply is no light at the end of the tunnel.
You feel as trapped as you can get.
Your Leads and Managers are most likely literal monkeys who are dumber than you but boss you around while they are literally not doing anything other than spy on you.
Reason for this is that every single human being working for this shit tier company has to bring in the numbers. You, your Leader, your Manager and the OPS Manager.
There are also multiple shifts a day which means that one shift competes against the other and since everyone of these sorry ass Leads tries to become a Manager and every Manager tries to become OPS Manager they all try to squeeze out as much performance as they can get to have the better performing shift that day.
Its ludacris because it literally all depends on how many orders are coming in that day and trust me some days are not like the others.
The workers (like you) must achieve average quotas they can barely ever reach (in total). You can meet your goal but the whole shift NEVER meets the daily goals because the averages get adjusted accordingly in such a way they can RARELY ever be met.
This is done to motivate the workers because what would happen if yo utell them "oh well you guys are on 150% performance today" ? Of course everyone would work slower.
This is why you get told every single day that everyone is working at 70-80% speed and theres room for improvement - no matter what the total numbers are.
Don't even get me started on breaks, the general mood in these FCs and so on.
if you have more questions ask but start looking for an alternative immediately.
What country are you in?
I havent but friend who works there now says it's pretty much an american sweatshop. He says it's better than working at pizzahut though.
>>59118223
also ... when they ask you WHERE you want to work choose STOW
trust me ... Stow is the best job inside of the FC.
Packing is the worst. Picking is 10 miles walking every single day but it can be good sometimes to get some variety in. Receive is fucked up too but better than Packing.
TL;DR: Choose STOW or try everything to get into Stow cause its the most comfy job.
As a stower you just put in the items into the bin and you have to be careful about it thats why you dont have to go full speed 24/7. You can even sit and you can find people to talk to across the isles or even next to each other.
All the other "jobs" inside of the FC are suicide inducing and make you feel lonely.
Also everyone hates stowers cause its so comfy and they waste all this time all day.
What kind of monitor cable would I need for this? I'm computer illiterate.
>>59117660
USB-D
>>59117670
Yeah I don't think so.
>>59117660
you need a VGA to DisplayPort adapter so you can plug in the HDMI cable your monitor uses.
Give me one good reason why the lower resolution is better for weebshit
uses less data
Because I can double 720p to 1440p.
It typically looks better than 1080p on a 1440p screen.
If I had a decent CRT it wouldn't matter.
>>59117526
Couldn't care less about HD res unless it is:
1) to make wallpapers
2) to make epic meems
3) is a rarer anime that is graphically amazing.
From a time where I've even watched anime at 144p, TV too, it was followable.
90% of the time, I only care about a plot being followable in spite of graphical quality.
Of course, with anime it is a bit more difficult because if it is a hardsub, you are going to get fucked over at <240p resolutions. (but that was an edge case at the time, 2004 anime streaming community, yep, FUCKING STREAMING FAG)
720 is perfectly fine for most anime.

>have a shit resume for IT because I did something else that didn't work out.
Is there any other way I can get myself to be interesting enough to get hired by a decent company?
Create/contribute to an interesting piece of software.
Alternatively dye your hair some non-human colour and pick a mental illness to be proud of.
Personal projects
Get into Linux and become sysadmin.
It's a good job because the more you know the more you can automate and the more free time you get.
>Firefox status: KEKED
https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2017/02/24/improving-themes-in-firefox/
>We want to fix Firefox so theming is better for everyone.
>The next generation of Firefox themes will blend LWTs’ ease of authoring with the additional capabilities we see most often used in Complete Themes. At its core is a JSON manifest, mapping defined property names to the underlying UI elements. Theme developers will be able to control a variety of styles on these properties (such as colors, icons, and background images), and Firefox will ensure the manifests are supported in a stable and well-documented way across future releases and UI updates. These themes will be layered on top of the default Firefox appearance, so you can create a trivial theme that just changes one property, or a complex theme that changes all of them.
Say goodbye to your userchrome mods, it's Chrome themes from now on.

This. They're both mediocre, though.
>>59116380
it's not, but it's close
i mean they sound pretty much identical, but the build quality of M50s is definitely better
for the record, i use M40Xs daily
