Which bluetooth keyboard would /g/ recommend?
first for KZ ATE S are a good meme

i could get a Lenovo ThinkPad Edge X130e with 4 GB/ 320 GB HDD for 129 euros - can /g/ recommend this machine? would run xubuntu on it. any interesting alternatives out there? looking for a small machine i could carry in my messenger bag all day.
I don't know much about the ThinkPads, but here is my experience with the one I did get to use for about a month making soundtracks in ableton:
Cons:
>small screen
>tiny cramped keyboard
>pretty ugly desu
>the textures of the keyboard and the mousepad felt 'off'
Pros:
>will survive a nuclear apocalypse
I'm just trespassing on /g/ so don't take this as an informed opinion
i have an x131e with these specs (see image)
ama
had to replace the harddrive with an ssd after 1 year. the screen is shitty bc not bright enough. ubuntu gnome runs smooth, no complains there.
the touchpad is abysmal, trackpoint is ok tho.
this things weight is also a point to consider, way to heavy imo

whats the cheapest way to setup an amateur radio?
also, its possible to talk with people all around the world with it?
>radio
>all around the world
Are you a spastic? Even if you had a large enough antenna, the world isn't flat.
>>57679418
>whats the cheapest way to setup an amateur radio?
1: Get a license
2: Get a monoband HF radio, about 50 dollars will get you going. Splurge a little bit more and go for a Ten Tec Rebel
>also, its possible to talk with people all around the world with it?
Yes. If you know what you are doing. See A above.
You might want a better radio like one from Elecraft
>>57682513
>1: Get a license
why?
How long before AI becomes decent?
So far it's pretty gimicky, every single company just throws "machine learning" and "our app learns the more you use it" in our faces, and hope that it sticks.

This is not a "yes or no" question.
AI's are already in use and they do a good job. The question is what we use them for. AI's are all different.

The AI classification is absolutely fine, I'm not sure what you're on about?
Idk about predictions but I live in the area around Morgan Freeman's house. Words in the air that he's been rushed to hospital like 2 hours ago.
After all the hoaxes, finally the faggot seems to be dead or something.

Pic related is what i currently have standing at home since a few years, i've been getting some blackscreens recently and i cannot use it for work projects anymore.
I work a lot in Photoshop, Illustrator and Indesign - recently i've also been learning and working in cinema 4d and after effects, but the computer i got at home cannot handle that so it's time for a much needed upgrade.
I don't have a lot of hardware knowledge so i've been doing some intense reading but im still left with a few questions.
Things to take in mind:
>I use the computer for my work projects in photoshop, illustrator, indesign, after effects and cinema 4d
>i make music in Ableton - im using an external usb audio interface, akai eie pro, which runs all my audio in/out
>i play shitloads of games
>optionally, a firewire/thunderbolt connection on the mobo would be usefull for future audio interface upgrades
So im looking for something that would perform good for work&games and has a fast&secure storage.
Because i am also recording in my room i will need silent cooling, my current case and VC fans are so loud they make recording almost impossible.
Motherboards having stuff like gold plated jacks are kinda useless for me as i use an usb audio interface to run all audio, but something like "USB DAC-UP" (like on GA-Z170X-Gaming G1) would probably be usefull as it would help to minimize the noise.
>>57679218
That being said, im kinda unsure if i want to go with Z170 or X99. And im not sure if buying two gtx1080 right now is a good idea or if i should wait for the 1080ti (i also heard evga fucked up this time on the 1080s).
Here is something i pictured:
>Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080 8GB Xtreme Gaming Water cooling Video Card (2-Way SLI)
>G.Skill TridentZ Series 64GB (4 x 16GB) DDR4-3466 Memory
>Samsung 950 PRO 512GB M.2-2280 Solid State Drive
>Samsung 850 EVO-Series 1TB 2.5" Solid State Drive
>be quiet! Silent Loop 240 65.5 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler
And one of those CPUs
>Intel Core i7-6700K 4.0GHz Quad-Core LGA1151
>Intel Core i7-6850K 3.6GHz 6-Core Processor 2011-V3
Any advice?
>>57679221
Theres something to think about, what is your current usage of your hardware?
>>57679723
what do you mean exactly?
I don't get it. I bought one for 25€ but I have no idea what they are for. All it seems to do is roughly track how many steps I'm taking every day.
What are they for?
>>57679004
This is the shittiest wearable of the current year
Did you not read the description?
It just tracks steps and heartrate. That's literally it.
What did you expect for 25 Euros?
because you are fucking retarded, OP
it shows time, can track your sleep via apps like "sleep as android" , can track your heart rate, it's like a wearable for people who are interested in sports. so not for people like you. if you didn't know what that was you shouldn't buy it in the first place.
if you wanted a smartwatch, then look at lg, even samsung of you want meme tizen os
>>57679186
what about apple watch, lol
I just got a new evolv itx, but didn't realize how big it was. It doesn't even fit on my desk next to my monitor. My M9i also looks like a joke inside it. Can someone reccomend a smaller, thinner Itx case that doesn't go into full HTPC territory?
>>57678906
>fits a 200mm fan
>expects it to be narrow
>>57678906
>ITX
>still too big
just end yourself, it's really the only way.

Is jewggleos a meme?
>>57678845
It's mostly trash unless you can live with using nothing but web based interfaces. That said buy a cheap one and install dsl .
>>57678845
it has no games so yes
There really is no reason to use chrome OS if you can install loonix

Unix Power Tools and Essential System Administration are supposed to be very good.
I'll also read DNS and BIND, because once I tried into BIND and didn't even know what the fuck was going on
>>57678768
If you usually buy books then yes, it's a good deal.
If you pirate books, then, no, it's not a good deal.

Given how they have to force a strawman on other tech to make fun of it, and given how that's it's only way of staying relevant, I think they are nearing the end.
really make me think

Is it worth getting an RX 480 8GB over a GTX 1060 6GB for the better directx12/vulkan drivers and extra 2GB vram?
Yes
Ask something this simple in the /sqt/ next time.
