I fucked up /g/. I purchased some things here and there and overall fucked up my finances.
I'm now looking at selling most of my shit so I can make rent and pay for the real life things that are more important than my digital toys.
So which do you think I should be selling?
A 65 inch SUHD 4K Samsung KS8000 TV
Or my now 2 year old desktop set up with the following

I'm pretty sure I can convince some other wannabe gamer kiddie to overpay for my computer but any adult might like the TV. I may also part with both.
Just sad now. What do /g/?
If you want to criticise the build go ahead. Just trying to get opinions on my options.

Is there a better browser?
I'm not meme-ing. Genuinely curious. I feel like I've used them all and this satisfies every need.
>>58448931
Vivaldi.
>>58448931
Agreed. For some reason it even runs faster than Chromium
>>58448931
>Chinese
>>58448966
Slow as balls but I use it unironically. Love vertical tabs. Only use Firefox for online textbooks and the occasional video incompatability.
What's his end game?

Fair enough
Thank you, anon

He had no end game other than to get fabulous prizes for doing as he was told.
Plex question
Will an Asrock J4205 be enough to stream in 1080?
>>58448771
Will be running freeNAS and plex from ssd, 8gb ram
>>58448771
>>58448782
The mobo is irrelevant, the CPU does the transcoding.
For a 1080p transcode you'll need a PassMark score of 2000 -- http://www.cpubenchmark.net search for your cpu.
I run the exact same system (freenas/plex/transmission/cp/sr/other stuff) with a Pentrium G4400 and it can do 2 1080p streams simultaneously without a hitch.
>>58448838
Woops, left out that the board has an integrated cpu.
The passmark is about 2100 @1.5 Ghz according to the benchmark. However, the company lists the cpu at "up to 2.6 Ghz". The discrepancy has me a bit thrown off on what to actually expect (I don't have the board in my possession yet).
What microphones do /g/ own? What do you recommend for someone who uses voice chat a lot?
literally any chink 15 dollar microphone will do for voice chat, i use this one. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA27C3GX0389
>>58448740
>voice chat
you don't need a good microphone
>>58448798
I have a cheap on that plugs into the microphone port on my PC. People tell me I sound terrible.
>Linux is fast and Windows 10 is a bloated slow mess, /g/ said
Meanwhile in reality...
Additional info:
Organizing the windows in W10 took me 3 seconds but 3 hours in Gnome due to its absolutely garbage window management.

Don't worry, Linux apologists will say you're using the wrong config and you'll need to edit 1000 lines of code to get it right, not using their obscure ultra-haxxor distro with no support or even blame it on Wayland.
>Telegram was available for desktops and laptops since 2013. Today it finally graduates to version 1.0 with a fabulous new design.
>Consistent material design, great animations, and support for custom themes make Telegram for Windows, Mac, and Linux the tool for messaging from your Mac or PC.
>If you're looking for an alternative design, Telegram Desktop also supports customized themes. Anyone can make a theme for Telegram Desktop. This theme, for example, changes green outgoing messages to blue:

Are you using Telegram, /g/?
Why doesn't Signal have a good desktop app like this?

>What are some other jobs in tech that can give you ptsd?
Janitor on 4chan.
But at least the pay is great, so there's that.
>>58448712
damn, that shit sounds fucked up. give it to the deep learning algorithm instead.
wtf is microsoft online safety team? article was vague about it.
What happened, /g/?
You'd think that with Whatsapp, Telegram, Matrix, Signal and all those clients we use now that Tox would be one of the up and coming ones but the project never shows up in any news or even message boards.
>>58448637
The NSA killed it. Try Ring.cx
>>58448720
Ring.cx looks really bad though
Tox is good, but it has the same problem as Signal: no one uses it.
Riot is 10/10 as well.

How do I fall for the vps meme?
I just want a vpn that lets me post on 4chan.
>>58448373
From what I know, you need to pay for one, so you can get access to domains and such that 4chan has not blacklisted. All the public proxies and VPNs I've tried don't work because they use public proxies that 4chan has blacklisted in their database.
You can always contact your ISP and ask them to change your IP for you.
>>58448486
My ISP blocks 4chan.
Besides I'm not looking to evade bans. I can do that by power cycling the modem.
I want to get a vpn that isn't blacklisted on 4chan so I can still post in case my ISP gets more aggressive with its blocking.
Get a vps, ssh with the -D flag to make a local socks proxy tunneled over SSH
It's a 1 step process fucktard, we need an entry test for this board or blocking Windows user agents
Are Macs really overpriced, or is it just an illusion?
Also, which one would you choose, the P50 or the 15 inch macbook?

>highly upgradeable
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
50 yuan have been deposited into your account, Chig Chong Lin. Thank you for shilling commie china company. Fuck the evil white roundeyes.

>>58448359
You can upgrade the HDD, SSD and RAM, so yeah, it's not only highly upgradeable, but also serviceable.
