No idea if this is real or not but I'm tempted.

Worst case scenario, I don't get the laptop, ebay/paypal refunds my money.
Lmao
Actually the worst case scenario would be you get the laptop and the first time you power it up the damned thing explodes in your face, kills you instantly, then sets fire to everything around you potentially killing others in the process.
Think about it - it's ~$20 for a reason.

W-what happens to you as a dev after you reach 30, /g/?
I keep hearing that you're basically fucked after that, no one will hire you and you can't progress beyond Senior Software Engineer
Is this the case? If so, what do you do?
I like programming, and I'd like to do it professionally, but the thought of never advancing beyond that point is putting me off a little

if you never attain senior status then you're fucked. so do a good job and learn a lot. make good connections.

Helpful if it comes with a 3m cable and 1/4 inch adapter/jack, but I can buy those separately if needed
They don't need to have a high impedance

Install Gentoo
>>58249056
what distro is it?
when did this start happening?
what were you doing before this happened?
For most of human history, people didn't require Hollywood to entertain them. They managed to entertain themselves and they somehow survived.
I can sympathize with people who struggle to afford food, clothing and shelter. But entertainment? Learn to play a damn guitar and entertain yourself. Entertain others!
What's happened to the human race, being brainwashed by corporations to passively expect to be entertained by them, like a bunch of infants. The best thing people could do is to stop consuming corporate entertainment altogether. Don't buy it, don't pirate it, don't consume it.
>>58249034
Social pressure. "Pressure" may be too strong of a word, even; just fitting in.
What do normies talk about when they meet each other? You try to find some common ground, and the easiest way to do that is go for music/films/vidya you like. Go without consuming media and people will think you live under a rock.
>>58249034
Well said anon, the only "corporate entertainment" I really consume is games, and I usually only play chilled out multiplayer games where you make your own fun or the fun comes from messing about with your friends / other people.
I don't understand how people can just sit watching films or TV all day.
I then never have much to talk about with other people because I haven't seen exactly what they've seen, I've made my own fun.
I feel like even spending multiple hours on this board shitposting is benefiting my brain more than binge watching shows. At least I'm actually actively doing something.
>>58249034
Yes, the day we will finally focus on patents about science and not "muh copyright musikk :(((" we will finally live on a society with no more copyright notices trying to fuck your ass wider than a Hidamari sketch girl after some BJ with a big dick.
But hey, it's very unlikely that this could happen because we're still indoctrinating faggots into music and art, thus making it harder to get away from this shit called MPAA, RIAA, etc.

Why do people dislike flat response speakers/headphones so much? Do they not know that a flat response is the perfect candidate to get whatever kind of sound you want through EQ? It's objectively the best choice.

Ryzen will be the biggest failrue of AMD that will drive them to bancrupcy
Sure thing Goldstein
>>58248809
You're the fucking failrue
I'll still upgrade my FX-8350 to it. It's still faster than Intel chips in multithreaded performance.
Ryzen will make it up to par in single thread peformance.
programming beginner here.
how can I improve my skills? I do write in C++, although I have stopped my very personal education on OOP (like constructors n shit).
how to go further, deep into the programming mastery? where good sources at? HOW should I learn?
thanks in advance, anons.
Iso any idea.
>>58248793
>I have stopped my very personal education on OOP (like constructors n shit)
Constructors are far from being a representative mechanism of the OOP paradigm. Since this paradigm is really important, I suggest you to:
- be familiar with arithmetic and bool's algebra,
- learn basic stuff about type representation, pointers and memory management. This is not very useful depending on the language you'll stick with, but it's still important for your culture,
- study algorithmic and data structures. Implement some basic stuff yourself, I think it's important for your comprehension,
- get a real overview of OOP and take a look at some case studies to understand the stakes. Then look at design patterns.
- be proficient at debugging. You'll learn a lot through this and it will help you to build a solid intuition on how things work. Reading other people's code is good too.
- be very curious. Ask yourself how things are made.
- give you realistic objectives. Start with simple projects and raise slowly the difficulty.
