They were created before the VESA standard for dpms came out and displays would burn in if the image stayed static for too long.

Why is it so complex?

I thought it was just a special tip configuration that the touch screen could read. Some static rubber mount and a simple touch screen tip on a basic rotation hinge. Let the touch screen do the work, this should never need a battery let alone that much circuitry.

Sad.

So say you have a 3.29 GPA, and you're in your senior year of a shitty CS program with no internship or work experience related in the tech field, you also have a shitty GitHub page with two average projects on it. Would you be able to get into a masters program at say NYU or CMU? If not, is there still hope for you?

OP here. Somebody's fucking with my Internet, trying to keep me from downloading it.

I have AT&T and my internet frequently goes out for about 3-7 seconds and then comes back on. It is completely random, AT&T doesn't know what the problem is and just switches out the modem and that doesn't help. What the heck do I do?

This! Instead of bitching about it anonymously, call them and ask about it. Sounds like it's an issue on their side that should be easily fixed.

Do you even use CLI for anything other than looking like you're hackering?

I only use it to install and remove packages. Everything else just seems nicer with the GUI.

I like CLI for things where I know the path and can easily get there. Gui for things that I don't intuitively know or require frequent tweaking of the parameters. (webm conversion, for example)

Healthy balance.

Why doesn't anyone build a recliner specifically for PC use? I can't be the only one who finds a full built in leg rest and thick soft padding to be vastly more comfortable than the thin hard padding on high end ergonomic chairs? I can't even sit in those things for long without wanting to die.

>lol just put a mouse and keyboard on a normal recliner

I've done this but it's far from ideal. The angle of your wrists is wrong and it gets uncomfortable. You'd want the ability to adjust the arms.

>just get one of those things that looks like it's out of a scifi novel

They're really not comfy either. Not enough padding and no or poor arm support.

There would be a huge market for this. A regular old recliner modified to percectly attach a monitor and kbm.

Let's kickstart this thing reddit!

A mixture of consumer inertia and small market. Most people are content to sit at desks/tables to use desktop computers as the surface also provides space for other things/activities, whereas a recliner does not. Beyond that, most people who want recliner-level comfort while they do computer stuff are usually just going to use a laptop with a pad for heat mitigation.

There's not much of a market for a desktop recliner.

The mouse is comfy enough with a wide armrest, the keyboard is ok on the lap but if I need to be productive I am far better off at a desk. It makes a great sim when I roll the wheel setup in front.

Good luck with your kickstarter, almost nobody seems to care, just look at how unpopular comfystatiom threads are

Thinkpad 13 $580

Acer Laptop Aspire E 15 E5-574G-54Y2 $400

HP 15-ay013nr 15.6 $430


Which of these are the best for Music production and coding in linux? Cpu is very important and light gaming is good too.

It's gotta last me at least 2 years.

I'm going to use ableton live a lot I'm gonna do some programming on Linux (I'll be making a partition) I want it to be able to emulate old games and have it be pretty fast as I browse the web and watch movies and use it for assignments.
>>
>>57791410
If you're going to be doing music production then definitely the Aspire E 15, and even this is a little flakey in some aspects; you'll definitely want as powerful a CPU as you can get, but you also need a larger screen, hence the Thinkpad 13 being a little cramped for a DAW.

Have you considered saving up and getting the Aspire V17, or the ASUS ROG GL552VW? Those would be fine, the i5 6200U is gonna feel cramped when you really start digging in deep with live interfacing with Ableton.

I'm struggling to get my head around the cooling for my current build. I understand different pressure types, but the issue is now PWM or non-PWM.

If I understand correctly, and pertaining to this build of mine, I've got a case that comes with three fans included but they're not PWM, they're 3 pin.

IIRC PWM is good because it's not a constant fan speed, it ramps up and down depending on required cooling. Something which is great for CPU/GPU coolers, but what about the Case itself?

I only ask because when I buy the rest of my fans, should I be getting PWM or non-PWN. If it's PWM, then I have to get another two making five, whereas if it doesn't matter I can just make do with three.

Is this something that most people overlook or do they refit all their Case fans with PWM/4 pin ones?
