Depends on your internet connection. It's definitely cheaper in the long run.
For those of you who wageslave, if someone came up to you and asked if they should go into IT, what would you say?

"Do you want to play a game?"
Hey,
I didn't find shit about my issue.
Here the thing :
I just receive a vocal message on my phone (old Nokia).
The message was myself speaking and the record is 5 minutes long.
My phone was far to me, around 5 meters.
I didn't touch it, nobody touch it.
WTF ?

The number left for this message is my message box number...
I just don't get the logic of that shit.

That is pretty fucking funny.
Speaks volumes about how shit Windows is in terms of code.
Linux is 100megs and 170megs for the entire history for comparison.

Linux is a kernel, not an operating system.
What does /g/ use for wireless headphone?
I want to upgrade from my old Razer Carcharias to a wireless headphone.Price range 0-300$. Mostly to appreciate some fine classic music as well as some Tenacious D. I want good music quality and solid fabrication.
I'm thinking of the sennheiser Momentum 2.0 (pic related) or the Logitech G933 Artemis Spectrum.
What is your choice /g/?
The g933 Artemis is great. Just dont buy the g533, it sucks
>>59032695
All wireless headphones suck.
So your only choice is shitty headphones or choosing not to go wireless.
Anything that don't use Bluetooth?
Is there a language that implements this concept:
say you have code like this:
fulldate_ = " Mon Jan 20 2017 "
fulldate = strings.TrimSpace(fulldate)
year = fullDate[len(fulldate)-4:] //get the last 4 characters to get the year
is there a concept that allows you to do this to simplify it:
fulldate_ = " Mon Jan 20 2017 "
year = strings.TrimSpace(fulldate_)[len($)-4:]
Where basically the $ (or whatever symbol the language uses) becomes the returned value from the function.
SQL with substring
>>59032677
You could use an anonymous function for that.
If it was, say, Python:year = (lambda s: s[len(s)-4:])(strings.TrimSpace(fulldate_))
I don't remember if lambdas need a return statement though.
>>59034109
in python the lambdas automatically return whatever the single expression evaluated to
Best recourses to learn Python? I specifically am interested in interacting with APIs and filesystems, I don't know if that matters. Thanks /g/

If it's tour first attempt at programming, try codecademy. Then do exercises on exercism.
The online documentation isn't stellar, but I found it enough to be able to teach myself file operations. A hard lesson of mine you could avoid repeating is to be open minded about libraries early. Look up the task you want to accomplish, read the suggestions on Stack and then immediately look into any libraries they suggest. The sooner you become familiar with them the better.

Wrong.

You failed.
>>59031605
yeah all this is good but Knuth's books are practically unreadable, he always acts as if anyone can easily read them but it's total bs. So even though I respect him a lot I know his books are totally a waste of time.

Brainlet detected.
>When Brotli was first announced, Google found itself unexpectedly caught up in a gender controversy for its plans to use a ‘.bro’ file extension, which some people, quite strangely, said came across as misogynistic and unprofessional. Google eventually changed the extension to ‘.br,’ and put out a statement that read: "there will be no '.bro' in Brotli.”

Why?
>>59044367
cpu bottleneck
>>59044367
Turn off advanced graphics, CPU should be in the 80fps range
>>59044408
Everything in advanced graphics is off, everything in normal graphics is on high, 2x MSAA, 8x An-isotropic Filtering

I still don't understand why chinkpads are the fashy memes instead of this. you can take it and customize the way you want. it even has one thunderbolt 1 port, which I use with my dell u2515h.
