JerryRigEverything's was better and even that was shite.
I fucking hate how they get a buttload of views and are probably swimming in ad money yet most of their content is pretty low production/seems very lazy.

People watch for the retardation now.

OP here
*computers, kek

Instead of 1 and 0, you have 1 and 0 and 1+0 at the same time

That literally makes no sense.

>1. Anyone can just fork their source code, assemble or convince others that he assembled a much better team to develop the fork, possibly convince others that he turned it fairer/more distributed/whatever and just people flooding into his fork because they believe it's more reliable/better/robust.

It seems unlikely that you would be able to convince everyone, not only nodes and general participants but also developers of clients and frameworks, that whatever you've come up with is worthy of a hard fork if it's just designed to fuck people over. Yes it is a slight possibility, but eliminating it means the creation of a central authority.

>2. Bitcoin itself has the problem I believe. I know it might be a controversial statement but I think it's very clear that the very fact nobody disallows anyone to just make another cryptocurrency, drops its value, even if it's extremely popular, and any alt coin you supports does already lower Bitcoin.

I see no problem with competition.

>3. Closely tight to the forking but a different category at the same time, nobody stops the banks, the powers that be, the governments, to just officially go all out cryptocurrency and basically destroy any people-run ones with their incentives, they may even go anonymous algos as a last resort.

I don't even get what you're trying to say. Cryptocurrencies are as "people-run" as hard currency.

The revolution didn't happen, the technology is unusable, lack of centralization isn't a benefit, the community is 1% naive idealists, 9% scammers and 90% delusional i'm-wonna-be-rish scam victims.

>Cryptocurrencies are as "people-run" as hard currency.
That's FUCKING bullshit. Most cryptocurrencies are developed by a small team of anonymous shills that were never elected. They often have forced or semi-forced donations of their currency to themselves.
Literally nearly 100% of cryptocurrencies have a website, an official pool etc., donations and automatic coins to their account from the pool.

Kill yourself retard. Literally fucking google it.

>>59045329
What the fuck is he supposed to google?

>>59045903

How about the fucking official manual that Google wrote about how to use Google? You're a fucking mouthbreather just like OP.

>iphone
What are you, gay?

Depends on what you do, if you do nothing with your phone but browse the internet, make calls, video chat, get the iPhone.
If you download movies, mp3 files or whatever, customizable and all that good stuff, get the android.

>>59041899
no. if they sold it as a barebones system or even as just a monitor/digitizer, it would be better.

If you're in an incredibly specific niche it's great because the monitor itself costs an insane amount of money. When you consider the space they have to work with outside of the room the monitor leaves behind, you realise they're basically working in a laptop amount of space. Price is fair when all the components are factored into the cost.

It's one dope looking computer in any case. I'd buy one if I was made of money.

I also have a feeling this specific system might have some antique value in the future.

I think it's going to be remembered as a great computer nobody bought because it was too expensive.

>windows problems

They literally found a way so that even your mom updates her shitty laptop and you still complain about stuff like that. Retard.

Work on KDE Plasma. It's only modern environment that works on QML, the closest clone of XAML and WPF. The rest of linux has caught meme cancer and they think being stuck on technologies from 1991 is cool, using 2MB of ram on their 32GB RAM PCs and alt-f1ing in console mode.

I sense half-truths. Don't lie, OP. It's a sin.

Half-truths? I'm in final year of a course that I really shouldn't be in. There'll be no lies from me, my anonymous friend

wow how can linux even compete with winfdings

>>59053353
It still spies on you. The Pajeetware is in the kernel, and no placebo program from a shady chink website can fully block the privacy issues. That's how GNU can compete. Linux is just the kernel, you stupid piece of shit.

>>59053110
also is it even a good idea to spend time on learning assembly?

There's also an accompanying website.

Alternatively, Ray Seyfarth's ebooks. Or free ebook Reverse Eng for Beginners.

Other resources are often so ancient, and don't discuss important stuff like SIMD, AVX, and using the intrinsics.

>>59053130
If you are into programming compilers, OSes or really small microcontrollers.
