youtube-dl

youtube-dl can be set to only download audio.

>>58445065
Just use the command line utility youtube-dl, and specify -x if I remember correctly to extract audio. You can also specify the format if needed. It also works on pretty much any site, like soundcloud, vine, twitter, facebook, etc.

>"Stagnation in the (personal computer) market continued into the fourth quarter of 2016 as holiday sales were generally weak due to the fundamental change in PC buying behaviour," Gartner principal analyst Mikako Kitagawa said in a release.


OUCH

>Another factor was that people are putting off replacing desk or laptop computers because they use them infrequently, opting instead to go online with smartphones, according to Ms Kitagawa.

OUCH

PC will never die so long as businesses and governments continue using them.

>>58445060
Sure it will die. Innovation will just slow down because the market is shrinking.

Even Intel is slowly dying. They completely abandoned tick-tock and completely slowed down improvements to their consumer chips and are concentrating on enterprise and CPUs for server farms.

That's why Skylake and Kaby Lake have nearly identical performance.

This slowdown will impact nearly all aspects of PC ecosystem as people just start using cheap tablets and phones more and more.

DTV receivers are being sold for a long time, but digital radio is literally who.
You can't have non-retarded digital-to-analog converters with most radioreceivers.

it's more fun to compute

Don't power banks start degrading horrible if not used correctly?
I never tinkered with them so what do I know.

Top of the line cells are 3200 or 3400mah, China cells are usually half that if that. They're usually paralleled then ran through a boost converter to 5v. You can eyeball how many cells would fit and do the math.

>>58444942
They're pretty hard to mess up when in a power bank. It's a easy life compared to being dead shorted to fill some kids lungs with burnt sugar. Just don't drain the pack till the protection kicks and not charge it for a year.

BOOM

The main advantages of the language are simplicity and readability. Anyone can learn to use Python, from a child to a grandmother.

Python code is easy to read by humans so it's great for collaboration, and the simplified syntax allows to you do more with less code.

The sacrifice it makes is performance. It's a very high level language (it's interpreted) and compared to something like C it's blown of the water.

>>58444930

Also yeah, there's a shit load of modules available. The python community is *very* active worldwide and there's a module/bindings/API wrapper/whatever for just about anything you could want to do.

>>58444930
>>58444970
Yeah looking at the code now I can see why it's so widely used; it barely even feels like syntax.

Any idea why it's used so much for mathematical/scientific computing if it sacrifices performance? Or is it just to spare everyone having to learn pointers

yes, buy two of them!

Wow, thanks anon!

>>58444884
yes. also AMD has been pushing new drivers like crazy.

Leave it alone until you become more knowledgeable on linux.

Lubuntu (LXLE?) or Absolute Linux

>>58444841
Lubuntu looks ugly imo...anything better but still retain the performance?

Antergos will give you an easy to install Arch. Honestly, The desktop environment is what you're worried about for resources. Look up light DEs like lxde or xfce or some shit and get any flavor of Linux with a light DE.

No I dont want to pay monthly for memory storage.
can i change the ssd with another in laptop ? or the best strategy is to have an external HDD for storing big files ?

>>58444407
>>58444525
You told us nothing about the use-case, so all we can give is shit advice. Also, there's a stupid questions thread dedicated to questions like yours >>>/g/sqt
Anyway, most laptops don't come with two 2.5" slots, sou you can't just whack in an extra HDD like you would in a desktop. If your laptop has an optical drive, you can often remove it and install a hdd holder in its place (or have a professional do it for you), but you should definitely check if that's possible with your model. This way you can have an SSD for speed and an HDD for storing large files.

>>58444349
why not Android?

>>58444491
The Java Virtual Machine
It can this year actually new processors support DirectX and OpenGL etc.

I have them dualbooted but I want to install an SSD what do I do now

>>58444303
Back in HDD days dual booting wasn't time economical.

If it's Windows 10, it will try to delete Linux.
