iPhone 6s user here, looking to upgrade sometime in the next year or so. I'm seriously considering the switch over to Android, and I'll admit one of my biggest motivators is Apple's removal of the headphone jack.
Is this an overreaction? I'm a bit worried I'll miss the convenience of things like iMessage and FaceTime. I realize Android has its own alternatives to these services, but it seems like it would be such a pain in the ass to get everyone on the same page as you when most of them are using Apple products.
I'm also always hearing horror stories about text messages getting stuck in the iMessage system...

Hi, arduino noob programmer here,
I have a question:
How can i make a delay(x); from beginning of a function and not just a delay itself?
example:
>> "" beginn of delay"" -> stepper.step(123); ""delay continues till next argument"" <<

Silly Apoo. Instead of programming timing function, just take apart a clock to keep track of time for you.

I want to replace my 2 250GB SATA drives with a single 500GB drive. They're connected to the same SATA card and are in a RAID stripe set up. Can I just plug a single 500GB drive in instead?

Yes.
I used a PCI-E 1x raid controller before and had two drives, none in raid, just regular AHCI mode.
>>
>>58557847
if you want RAID you'll need more than one drive, if you simply want to move your stuff from two 250GB drives to a single 500GB drive, then yes you can.

Is your computer really really old? I don't get it. Maybe I'm just ignorant.
Be honest, is switching from windows 7 to Ubuntu even worth it if I want to learn programming and I dislike IT problems a lot?

Same thing on other Windows 10 editions too if you disable Cortana.
Anyone know how to fix this?

I am of average intelligence with no prior programming experience beyond basic web dev shit. I am, however, obsessed with old computers from the 80s such as the Spectrum ZX, C64 etc. It is my life's ambition to learn how to program in BASIC and hack around with these old legends from my childhood. I want to write a Spectrum game before I die, without the use of emulators.
Is it beyond the realm of possibility for a regular Joe like me to learn how to hack around with old school computers and their pitiful memory? This is a long term goal. Where do I even start?

Old hardware is usually very well documented, companies werent as jewish and desperate to track their users back then. You can probably find hardware and programming manuals for the low on amazon for the device you have and you can find em for free online most likely

Get an Amstrad CPC. Amstrads don't have a cult following since they weren't popular at all in the US (Even compared to the Spectrum/ZX81). This means they're cheap. Also, they have a great community in the UK, Spain and France. Oh, and they have Locomotive BASIC, which is best BASIC.

What are some technical things that a normie can learn about computers that most people don't know?
I can use the CLI reasonably well but beyond that, there isn't much I know about the hidden depths of my desktop. I want to become more knowledgable about computers in general. What is some cool, interesting and useful stuff to learn about them?

Better yet: tree. Simple and you can also make it recursive with goto so that it runs indefinitely.

The weight would introduce torque due to the extended lever. If the torque was countered somehow, it would measure the same force.

My bank sent me a new debit card recently and it has Visa paywave in addition to the usual exposed chip, I was wondering if a magnet on my phonecase could ruin the either one of the chips on the card, when I used some random steel objects to find the magnet on the case, the objects (nail clippers and a small pair of scissors) became magnetized & remain so even two months afterwards.
The reason I am asking are the two card pockets on the case that I thought might be handy for paying at stores without taking the card out of my wallet every time (I'll save the argument about how insecure paywave is for some other time, thank you)

>(I'll save the argument about how insecure paywave is for some other time, thank you)
on a second thought scratch that, let's discuss how secure paywave actually is, both of my banks (I have two debit cards from different banks, because reasons) claim their systems will require the user to enter PIN every now and then, but so far I haven't seen it happen, have any of you heard of anyone who has used paywave/equivalent & been asked to enter PIN?
>>
in my country, if you try to pay more than ~13$ equivalent in our currency, you have to enter pin
>>
>>58557636
here it's 40€ maximum for paywave & (supposedly-) randomly requiring PIN

So I have an exam in 3 hours in Linux command line. I have 2 questions I can't seem to find the answers for on the web; what's a quantum and what's an epoch? thanks guys!

An epoch is a measure of the number of times all of the training vectors are used once to update the weights. For batch training all of the training samples pass through the learning algorithm simultaneously in one epoch before weights are updated.

epoch is an obsure eeprom fab company
