Why the fuck is it so hard to find a decent desk for a workstation that isn't gaudy as fuck, expensive, or not at all suited for computers? I'm in the market for one and I'm starting to get depressed after finding only maybe one or two desks that aren't any of those things. Any of you guys have reccomendations?

Pic related: my favorite find so far. Only problem is its too short. Find me something like this and I'll probably suck your dick

Why the tech community is made of fucking pussies?
Most programmers are weak cucks.
Most of them embrace feminism and all that SJW cancer.

It is very hard for me to be within tech community

Where can I find sane programmers?

I'm not even pissed off at this kid. He trolled the media, got free shit, got a free fucking scholarship to Dubai and offers at Ivy league schools around the US, along with tons of meet ups with famous people. What I am pissed off at is the fact that people like Obama, Chris Hadfield, and other famous and well off individuals decided to give him all this shit. Just think about it, there are probably a ton of poor rednecks, blacks, and spics that do goofy shit with their tech everyday. They get discriminated against, bullied, beaten up by their meth moms, et cetera. These kids have their dreams taken from them. So what does Obama feel like he should spend his limited time on? Seeing some upper class Arab kid who was the subject of an arrest and managed to make it into public eye. The kid honestly doesn't need ANY of this shit. It's a waste of resources. It's like giving bread to the fat, what good does it do? What really hurt me was Chris Hadfield.

Cool guy, great at getting the public interested in space, and a humble person. Yet now I think I'm very disillusioned. He seemed to have partaken in a very greedy PR move that isn't justified in the slightest.If he has time to see Ahmed and his dumb clock, why isn't he seeing some techno geek in Newfoundland that is forced to become a fisher by his drunken dad? Why isn't he seeing some black kid in Toronto that is dealing dope at 14 instead of going to school and programming? I just don't get it. There are obviously people that need these resources much, much more and yet these big names stand up and give to the haves.

I'm using a Galaxy Ace. My first smartphone/Android device.

It's comparable to the iPhone 4 but only a quarter of the price.

Hey /g/.

Last night I had a few questions about configuring my networking equiptment for my new business.

>>59011249

Anyways, thanks to the anon(s) who helped me configure my Cisco Router. However the thread expired before I could answer any questions.

I followed this anon and used portions of his running-config

tldr;
I got a DHCP address from Spectrum, however I still cannot ping 8.8.8.8 (google.com). Is this something that they will setup when they come to install my service plan? I have a few guys coming to my apartment to install my service. Any help is appreciated

https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/apple-tells-lawmaker-that-right-to-repair-iphones-will-turn-nebraska-into-a-mecca-for-hackers

>Apple is inventing new and interesting arguments to prevent you from fixing your iPhone: It's lobbying Nebraska lawmakers to kill "right to repair" legislation, telling them unauthorized repair will turn the state into a "mecca" for hackers.

>Right to repair bills, which are currently making their way through eight states (Nebraska, New York, Tennessee, Wyoming, Minnesota, Kansas, Illinois, and Massachusetts), would require electronics manufacturers to make repair parts and diagnostic and repair manuals available to independent repair professionals and consumers, not just "authorized" repair companies. Electronics right to repair legislation is modeled on a 2012 Massachusetts law that preserved the right to repair cars.

>The most logical reason for manufacturers to oppose the bills is that it would democratize the repair economy, making it possible for consumers to fix their own things and cutting into the profits of repairs done at, for example, the Apple store.

>But the prospect of a Cupertino-based megacorporation losing business to local repair shops isn't a very sympathetic argument at the Nebraska statehouse. And so Apple has tried a slew of other tactics, according to state Sen. Lydia Brasch, who was recently visited by Steve Kester, an Apple state government affairs specialist.

>"Apple said we would be the only state that would pass this, and that we would become the mecca for bad actors," Brasch, who is sponsoring the bill, told me in a phone call. "They said that doing this would make it very easy for hackers to relocate to Nebraska."

tl;dr what exactly is wrong with OOP? I happen to know that many on /g/ do not like it.

I have to prepare a presentation for college regarding OOP languages and I admit that my understanding on what it meant was superficial. So by doing further research, from what I can see, it puts way too much focus on object interaction; it feels like the logical structure of a program is merely a detail. Objects do interact with eachother and that's an important part of programming, and I can understand that focusing on data can be specially important in situations where, as pic related says, data must given special attention, like banking systems. That isn't the case for most software out there, but it seems like languages like Java and C++ are pretty much used everywhere, on every situation, irregardless of whether it is needed or efficient.

I have come to conclude that OOP isn't bad per se, but it's fairly overused and misused. Am I correct?
