It's whatpeople who have a lot of spending money and very few hobbies looks like.

I certainly hope you canafford to keep that lifestyle going, otherwise you're going to have some problems.

>> default options for everything
>> first bootup
>> no mouse cursor
>> three error popups
>> wifi driver broken
>> video card driver broken
>> year of the Linux desktop
>Took me over a week to unfuck it. Good job, guys.
Linux is a meme that should have died years ago. We need a new, robust OS that always works.

>>58350644
That's nothing compared to what happened with my install anon

>fresh install
>default options
>took one whole calendar year to install to a prototype SATA9 SSD
>sound constantly blaring mexican rap music
>bad power management causes my CPU to start smoking
>fautly wifi drivers cause my wlan adapter to give off cancer causing radiation
>3D acceleration performance is so poor I get negative frames per second, causing me to be thrown back in time to the age of the dinosaurs
>font rendering so poor my eyes burst while trying to read any text

Year of the Linux desktop am I right?

>>58350589
Bad.
Vega should cut prices like the RX 480 did to the 970

Vega is going to be so good
Don't waste your money on a 1070

Vega is going to suck and 1070 is a nice power/price compromise if you want a green gpu now

>have cheap laptop
>buy bioshock infinite during sale
>game barely runs
>gpu temperature goes well over 100°c
>still want to play game
>go through several instances of laptop shutting down because want to play game
>after a while the gpu is finally fried

I basically killed a perfectly fine computer to play an incredibly shitty game. Replacing the GPU (if even possible) would've been a waste, given the age of the computer.

>>58350610
I also learned in due time that laptops are furnaces while playing games. I also fucked up my mom's laptop before i had the desktop one of OP. I also funny enough paid 1 buck for Bio infinite and regret it for it being such a shitty game.

I actually haven't fucked up a lot

Before I actually got meself a computer (well my parents did) I've been subscribing to a dedicated magazine (for complete laymen) for over a year. It was '96 I think but the moment I got the computer on the desk I actually had a clue what to do next.

My biggest fuckup was a few years ago when I tried linux mint and went the most ignorant retarded way possible with it (complete opposite of what I did when I was young)

Ended up with unbootable Linux, unbootable Windows and fucked up HDD (windows installer couldn't even detect it). Luckily I managed to get it working, retrieve my stuff and set it up again.

I'll admit I had laid off the idea of installing Linux for well over a year after the incident.

Since then I managed to switch entirely.

>Can it compete with twitter?
It has potential, but no. Twitter is more "traditional".

>>58350561
it can't compete in twitter's market because twitter doesn't have a market

Twitter's only success is infiltrating the legacy media. Something that Gab can never do.

I signed up for various SAAS websites that allow you to store files as a tangentially related thing to what the company does, usually intended for text files, pdfs or word documents related to other stuff that the company is supposed to help you create data about (and hopefully make money off of).

Eventually you find one where they forget to check file types, then rar your files into small enough pieces that you can put them on their servers.

>>58350503
I only backup important irreplaceable data (photographs, documents, rare movies etc).
I use an external USB Hard Drive dedicated for backup.
My most important data is also periodically burned to DVDs and stored away..

>>58350503
I dont.

I live dangerously. And honestly how much will it hurt to lose my documents, pirated music collection, programs, source codes i dont need anymore and photos?

The pain from loss is short, the pain from backing up your data is ethernal. Besides some of your data are online and saved passwords can be recovered if u remember the email one.

hows that aesthetic?

Have you tried impersonating a Microsoft "security services" employee on the phone to tell people to send you money or their computer will virus and slow?

>>58350295
Thanks for the helpful reply, Anonymous!

>>58350037

>>58349966
Because I have Watch OS 3 :)

>>58349966
Because I want my watch to work?

>>58349966
Becase I'm not autist?

Install Linux then you biiiiiiiiiitch.

Your video card crashes a single process when you perform a specific task and not, say, your entire machine or the driver itself?

I totally believe you.

Source for not understanding exit nodes and TOR is Cassandra Fairbanks on Twitter today, who live streamed questioning him. She may as well have spoken alien.

>Why not appoint someone who actually knows what's going on to handle our cyber security?

Because you didn't vote for someone who knows anything about cyber security.

But McCain's spot on this senate committee has literally nothing to do with Trump, as this committee has been around for a while now.

I restricted some applications running through Group Policy, but every time one of these apps run I get this popup message. How do I disable this popup message while still blocking the apps?

Just got done doing a fresh install of windows after getting a new motherboard, CPU, and Ram and the temps have me a bit worried.

Should I be worried? On my last setup they never went above 40C most of the time.

I'm also downloading the windows update shits because it seems like there's a lot of functionality missing from my computer.
