How do I into ricing OSX?

Is there any way at all to get rid of / change the bar at the top?

I set up xquartz (Which is basically xorg) but I couldn't get xmonad to run properly and tile my windows (Modifier key doesn't work ;().

Ricing GNU/Linux is made by not only choosing themes and colors, but what software goes in your computer. "Display Managers" are the login screens, "Window Managers" are the part drawing the borders, colors, etc, and "File Managers" are what handles how you browse your machine. More info:

Nintendo Switch Using "Near Stock" Tegra X1 Anonymous 2016-12-20 01:59:36 Post No. 58084810 [Report] [View this topic]

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2016-nintendo-switch-spec-analysis

http://venturebeat.com/2016/12/14/nintendo-switch-specs-less-powerful-than-playstation-4/

The use of Maxwell is no surprise, but shockingly these reports are indicating (without stating conclusively) that the Nintendo Switch's SoC is likely being manufactured at 20nm. This is surely the last pre-FinFET design to come from a major hardware vendor. To compensate for its poor power/performance ratio, the GPU is supposedly clocked at an underwhelming 307MHz in mobile mode.

Nintendo is already walking a very narrow thread of power/performance to get console-like graphics in a portable device. Not using FinFET is a very bad sign.

What are your thoughts on these rumors, /g/?

I already knew it was going to be using the older Tegra because there's not enough time to develop hardware with the new shit. Also predicted it would be slow, hot and crappy and a bad fit for what they're trying to do.

I'd like to buy my new keyboard, and I saw IBM Model M. I love that sound, but suspicious that It is appropriate for my work(coding, writing, and so on.).

Should I select another keyboard?

Buckling Spring is noisy as hell and also completely unsuited if you play any games at all.

I've owned a Model M and two Unicomp Ultra Classics. The Model M had weird problems with keys that would get stuck and wouldn't bounce back right, and both Unicomps had n-key rollover problems and completely died on me after a few years of use.

I'm now on some $10 shitter Microsoft keyboard and I couldn't be happier. Maybe one day I'll get a mechanical keyboard....maybe.

Did I just ruin my external hard drive? Anonymous 2016-12-20 01:39:59 Post No. 58084634 [Report] [View this topic]

I was doing some housekeeping and decided to wipe my Western Digital 500 GB external hard drive using CCleaner's drive wipe utility. Since I had all of the files backed up on another drive, I selected the "Entire Drive" wipe.

Everything seemed to go OK while the drive was being wiped, but now my computer is no longer recognizing the drive. I tried my laptop as well but no luck there either.

Is there a way to fix this or should I just toss the thing out?

Fantastic. I think I have a competition with CAT phones, but I see no reason to change from my current Xperia C in any foreseeable future.

I only need my phone for emails, calls and phone tethering. Google navigation is a plus, and nothing else.

Hey /g/,

Audio pleb here, I need your help! This is what I have:

Headphones: Audio-Technica ATH-M50x
Amp: M-Audio Bass Traveler

When I connect my headphones to my amp and to my computer from there, it creates static that has become unbearable. However, the static was almost silent when I used to connect my amp to the audio jack on my old keyboard, but since then I've replaced that keyboard with a mechanical one that lacks an audio jack.
I tried running the amp with the same headphones to my cell phone and it sounds good, with the exception of little static blips that sound when I stop audio.

I understand that the Traveler is a low-end device but really I just want a static-free setup for watching movies, playing games, and listening to music. I do not have an external video card, but I believe my computer uses the one integrated in my Nvidia GTX 1070 GPU. I understand that there is a lot of electronic noise around integrated devices and that can lead to static.

So I've thought of two options to work around the static but I wanted to see if anyone could put their two cents in:

1: Get this device (Sabrent USB External Stereo Sound Adapter), then connect as such - headphones -> amp -> usb adapter -> PC.

Link: https://www.amazon.com/Sabrent-External-Adapter-Windows-AU-MMSA/dp/B00IRVQ0F8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1482195072&sr=8-1&keywords=usb+to+audio+jack

2: Get a different amp (FiiO E10K USB DAC) that goes from audio to USB

Link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00LP3AMC2/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_S_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=3LBHEITA1VDGY&coliid=I11DIRBIM7ZWUT

So what do you all think? I'd prefer to go with the cheaper route, but if the FiiO sounds better and it solves the problem then I may just go with that. I appreciate all other suggestions though but I'd prefer to not spend more than $100 on a solution.
