Did you buy that from the official store or some reseller?
So, I'm looking for a good pair of over-the-ear headphones for $100 or less. I've narrowed it down to two. The Audio-Technica ATH-M40x and the Sennheiser HD 4.30. Which should I get? Are there any others you'd reccommend?
>>58624429
Philips SHP9500
Where the fuck is the headphone general
>>58624804
What about closed-back ones?

every time
>>58624470
To be fair there's a video of a dog who learned how to say "mama" before the baby the parents were trying to teach. It's pretty simple and easy, but for a sub human like a dog or a nigger, that's impressive.
Current state of windows
These issues are well known and are a result of the archaic retarded system windows uses behind the scenes to manage its own settings.
They're becoming apparent because they're switching everything into metro/neon/whateverthefuck style panels and are having to do a lot of softlinking
>>58624382
Windows 10 even a year and a half later still shits itself daily and I've reinstalled it 3 fucking times
Windows is a sinking ship. I wouldn't install such broken and unstable garbage in my PC. If I really have to, I would use it in a VM

C++
>>58624327

After that you just need to decide on what engine to use. Unless you're a masochist and want to make your own.
>>58624363
>>58624327

I thought the exact same thing while reading that Krebs write up.It's amazing how simple it was for that mongoloid to trick people into doing his dirty work.
So I picked out a mouse pretty much at random and ended up with the M6880X.
What am I in for?
>>58624022
Just tell yourself it's good and you'll prob like it, most ppl can't tell a good mouse from a bad one...
>>58624074
sounds about right tbqh
>>58624022
It's decent but not perfect. There's noticeable acceleration. I have one as a spare
Is VeraCrypt any good? I heard it was a fork of TrueCrypt, so I figure it's at least halfway decent.
Or is it like VPN's where free ones are basically worthless?
>>58623993
if you're using Windows just stick to Bitlocker. Security is a process, not a state that can be acquired with a magic trick.
Other than that, it's true that they fixed some bugs after a new audit - per se, it should be pretty good.
>>58623993
No, it's fine. They fixed a few (minor) problems in Truecrypt that the audit found.
If you're serious about security though, you should still be using dm-crypt on Linux.
>>58624031
I'm on Windows 10, but it's not one of the fancy versions that has BitLocker enabled.
>>58624032
With my current situation, I'm kind of stuck with Windows, I just need the best solution for right now.
Is there a Linux distro that can be installed on this?
You could probably Google that question desu
>>58623915
Google gave a lot of bullshit, I need something that works.
>>58624203
Don't use Apple devices then
What's the worst thing to configure on Linux?
>audio
If audio doesn't work out of the box you're fucked. Simple as that.
>fonts
Annoying at first because you have to read a bunch of wiki pages and your terminal never, EVER picks the fonts you want.
>printers
Fuck printers.
>>58623676
Audio and printers have always Just Werked(tm) for me.
Fonts I don't know, I've never care enough to change them.
>Dependencies
Took me like three weeks to track down, successfully compile and install all the dependencies I needed before I could track down, compile and install all of the core packages for a working system.
>>58623676
Seems accurate.
