The woman who invented typing

Obviously that's bullshit, since email was invented 10 years before he claims to have 'invented' it.
As a side note, Peter Thiel of Hulk Hogan lawsuit fame also funded this guy when he sued Gawker for pointing out that he was lying. After bleeding Gawker of several million in legal fees, they settled and Gawker removed the story.

1) is GPU or CPU more important for fps, and at what feature point (if any) does this distinction change? is (950m + i5-4200) or (940m + i7-4720HQ) better?
2) the machines i have an eye on are as follows, which would you prefer and why (bearing in mind the relative costs, and new vs refurbished)?
A) £500, manufacturer refurbished, 90 day warranty:
ASUS N551JX - i5-4200h - gtx 950 - tb+128 SSHD
B) £530, manufacturer refurbished, 90 day warranty
Asus N551JB - i7 4720HQ - 940m - 8gb, 1tb HDD,
C) £550 manufacturer refurbished, 6 month warranty,
Asus N550JK-CM604H - i7-4720HQ, gtx 850, 8gb, 1TB+24GB SSHD, £550
D) £600 brand new, 1 year warranty
MSI GL62 6QD - i5-6300HQ - gtx 950- 8GB DDR4 + 1TB HDD,
E1) £550, brand new, 3 year warranty
cosmos XT (pc specialist) - i5-6300HQ, 940mx, 4gb ddr3 1600 (replace)
E2) £600, brand new, 3 year warranty
cosmos XT (pc specialist) - i7-6700HQ , 940mx, 4gb ddr3 1600 (replace)
E3) £625, brand new, 3 year warranty
cosmos XT (pc specialist) - i5-6300HQ, 950m, 4gb ddr3 1600 (replace)
E4) £682, brand new, 3 year warranty
cosmos XT (pc specialist) - i7-6700HQ, 950m, 4gb ddr3 1600 (replace)
3) if i opt for pc specialist and were to upgrade EITHER the i5-6300HQ to i7-6700HQ OR the 940mx to 950m, which would be a more effective upgrade? upgrading both will not be possible unless they agree to sell me a machine without hdd and ram at a discount (these prices are already OSfree)
3b) if i go with pc specialist is the upgraded thermal paste worth it? will i have to dismantle machine and apply myself? is this hard? (i've dismantled laptops before but would rather leave a new machine alone!)
4) and finally! have you played fallout 4 on a/ny comparable machine to any of the ones i listed? what fps/resolution did you get?!
thanks so much for your help!
p.s. please link me to any higher spec machines at same price point, or similar spec machines cheaper!!

build a desktop or just buy a console
fallout 4 is very intensive game to run abd you will be lucky to get anymore than 30fps while looking like shit

Windows Linux Subsystem
does anyone know how I can boot directly into MATE right after the login screen on my Windows machine?
MATE works fine and almost all applications work as expected. in fact I get better performance from some programs like GIMP and Inkscape on WLS than using the native Windows Applications.

So I recently got the wire to my favourite pair of headphones caught on a door handle at school and the wire popped right out of mic/volume thing on my phone, these were pretty expensive so I'm quit cheesed off about it and was wondering if I could easily put these back together because I'm not quit good at that kind of stuff, anyways I hope you can help. Thanks

Nice try, Redditcuck.
I was wondering if there are any viable alternative open source phone OSs that I could install on my droid turbo. I want to still be able to make calls and stuff but I don't care about apps. I just don't want to contribute to the Android botnet anymore.

You could just save yourself the time by rooting your phone and remove gapps

Replicant.

>>58623920
Replicant is what you're looking for, but it probably does not support your device.
The best alternative is to flash an aosp rom without any gapps, and only using foss apps (fdroid is a good resource for this).

if you have to ask, you're going to end up downloading a RAT. Just use teamviewer or some shtit.

the idea is to have it where she wont see it. if she knows im watching she wont do anything worth catching.
thats why im asking first instead of just downloading randomly.

a day ago, even tho i had completely disabled any kind of updates, telemetry, spying shit or whatever you wanna name it,
windows 10 decided to install all the updates up to the very latest one existing, along with all the apps i had deleted, as well as telemetry and all that.
as for perfomance, to be honest It's not bad i guess, i dont see any crazy perfomance differences, apart from the boot time which takes like 5 secs more than yesterday
anyway, what would be the best way/software so that i bring my pc to its previous state? without all the retarded apps, telemetry, and i dont even know what else
Is that spybot anti-beacon a meme? does it actually work? ive used it before but i couldnt know

Yeah I heard it reinstalls useless apps you deleted (Xbox). I just hide it from start menu. Right click tile and remove it. If it re-enables telemetry without permission I'd love to see source. The spybot anti-beacon seems like a meme to me but it probably works.

spybot anti-beacon works, but it won't necessarily prevent what happened to you. It mostly just deals with telemetry.
You probably got the anniversary "upgrade" which resets your defaults, reinstalls bloat, undoes most of your telemetry settings (anti-beacon would help here), and uninstalls """incompatible""" software.
Allegedly the next "upgrade" won't do this.
Your only real defense against telemetry is firewall rules on your network.
Winaero tweaker will give you an easy button to disable updates, although I haven't fully tested it's efficacy yet. The only way I've been able to reliably disable updates is by deleting all update related services, and blocking the update endpoint in both the hosts file and on my router.
>>58623135
>If it re-enables telemetry without permission I'd love to see source.
it does, after an upgrade (not update). I don't have any source for you though other than my own experience with win 10 pro.

How about you stop using a spyware/adware OS and upgrade to Linux?
