hOW BAD IS YOUR FLOOR/chairTHAT YOU HAVE TO FRAME THE PICTURE LIKE THAT, ASSHOLE?
No. Stop this gay shit.
>>57309826
Gaming belongs in /v/.
Are there any women on /g/? I mean real women, not the men in skirts.
We are little girls on the internet.
sage
Obviously yes but I'd rather if gender wasn't disclosed here as it's not related to the discussion. Same thing with the garbage gay attention whoring.
>>57309815
Without the ability to find objective truth, how can you discern woman from man?
How does /g/ think this works?
Would it be possible to create one in real life?
Or is it simply an impossible matter of science fiction?
>>57309783
Why do you even bother to make a thread like this? What goes in your mind?
I think there's a Reddit community called r/fuckingretards
I think that's better suited for you
>>57309783
It fucks your mum every time you look at it.
In /csg/ we discuss the no/low-name cheap shit you see on Gearbest, AliExpress, eBay and similar sites.

anon r so dum why you buy thing you put own abttery in when u cn by thing that have lipo install from chinee factory
GOD DAMN IT IT'S SO COLD IN MY SHITTY CABIN THAT I HAVE TO UNPLUG ALL FANS AND TAPE OVER ALL VENTS TO KEEP MY COMPONENT TEMPS OVER 15C
I HAD TO BUY AN SSD JUST BEACUSE MY HDD FROZE OVER NIGHT.
What I'm trying to say is: are there keyboards with extra large keys since i'm typing with mittens
Get a wireless keyboard and stick it in your blanket with you.
>>57309525
Kek you should have bought a few nvidia housefires and put them in SLI.
>>57309525
>he didn't buy AMD
Winters are super comfy with my AMD CPU and GPU.
Why are most PC cases utter garbage?
Why do people love big stuff, taking all the space, making it untidy?
Who else here loves efficiency and minimalism?
Recommend me any decent small mini-ITX cases smaller than 15m3 volume that will allow you to fit in a GPU up to 30cm, CPU cooler of atleast 14cm / or 240mm rad+ 2xfans and all.
Further restriction, it should be available in Europe.
I have no interests in importing a case and go through all the custom duties.
Otherwise I would have gotten myself a Ncase M1.
>>57309451
People buy pc for being modular,and expandable/adaptable.
>efficiency
Yeah sure it's efficient when you can't even utilize all your available expansion ports/slots provided by your motherboard and are forced to buy slim fans and run your shit up to 90c because you decided to meme yourself with a small case.
lack of ambient cooling is what kills these thing long term, they are neat tho

Dear /g/
I have been running this setup for a long time with no problems. But today I bought a wireless speaker (the blue X) for my kitchen. And it has become obvious that the connection between the modem and the speaker is too weak to stream stuff from PC1.
What would be the best way of remedying the problem? Should I turn the router (asus ac68u) to a repeater? Or an access point? Or a hotspot? The main goal is getting a strong wifi signal in the kitchen, and PC1 need to be the connected to the modem/router that sends that signal.
Shameless bump for advice
obviously, your house went somewhere
>>57309356
Place router and modem far away from each other and without staight line of sight between them. Use same ssid and pass on both of them but different channels.
What is the best MPC-HC + madVR + extra shit guide out there? I always used KCP but it started crashing so I want to set it up on my own, but there's 10000 different sources with 10000 different settings. I don't know what to chose.
>>57309330
It depends on your preference and what you are watching. For example you look at a guide for watching anime but you can change the settings to how to want it to be, you don't need to follow what a guide says 100%

this is why windows now put resolution behind advanced options and only allows scaling on basic display settings
Hello friends
My Sony Xperia Z5 (piece of shit) broke today, and I'm considering upgrading to a Galaxy S5. I had one of these before, and after installing a custom rom, they're fantastic.
Has any company released an upgraded charging port cover for these bad boys? Something that doesn't go to shit after 2 weeks. I even thought of an entire bezel that could be installed to the phone with an improved design, but meh.
>>57309276
If only there were a smartphone thread where you could blog about your shitty poorphones.
>>57309292
>implying a rooted debloated S5 isn't better than any other model that has ever existed.
Prove me wrong faggot. S6 and S7 are terrible even after debloated. This Z5 didn't work properly out of the box, and was still poo after rooting.
Maybe I should just buy an iPhone?

With which distro did you lose your GNU/Linux virginity, anon?
Was it hard or easy to get used to?
>>57309141
Fedora Core 3. It was pretty fucking easy and I was 13.
I lost my virginity when I was using knoppix.
I realized sex was way over hyped and switched to ubuntu and never had sex again.

what counts as /setforlife/ on WCD? I've got over 250GB of buffer so realistically dont need to upload anything ever again.
>>57308986
I have like 100GB of buffer and consider myself /setforlife/ since I only download V0 encodes.
>>57308986
To me it's whatever you fits your downloading needs plus the size of your library in case your storage fails so you can simply redownload everything.
