Hey /g/. Just found a massive torrent of books (516GB) with many different books. I usually just use my phone or computer to read pdfs/e-books. But I was thinking of picking up a solid e-reader and toss a 512GB SD card in there and using that to read my books from now on. Is it worth?

What's /g/'s preferred e-reader? If you guys care for them at all.

This is the magnet for the torrent btw. Please seed.

Hello, anons. I have never posted on this board before and am hoping for some good feedback on this. I'm not largely into computers or anything but my current laptop at college is no longer going to cut it after this semester as I am an architecture major and I need to be running programs such as Autocad, Revit, Photoshop, Sketchup, etc. My current budget for a laptop is $1500 or less, no higher. Right now I am looking at an Asus Zenbook Pro 15.6" screen, intel i7 core processor, touchscreen, 16 gb memory, 516gb SSD. I would prefer SSD over HDD but I am listening to all opinions and thoughts on this as I hope to make the right choice. Also Mac is not an option and a lot of colleagues use Asus R.O.G. as their choice but I dislike how bulky and unprofessional is looks. I really need advice so I can get the right thing. Thank you guys in advance.
>Pic related is Asus Zenbook
>TLDR: Need architecture laptop, give sugestions

So /g/, what's your excuse for not using the latest version of the most useful Linux distribution there is, which is undoubtedly Ubuntu?

And don't give me MUH DE because you can install whatever DE (or none at all) with Ubuntu. What you get for using Ubuntu is God-tier support for latest software (its software repository is the largest of all distros) and at the same time stability.

I have an idea. How about one of you computer whizzes create an alternative to FB; one that doesn't profit from corporate ads or the use of privacy invasion. An idea would be through crowdfunding(donate a minimum of $5/month. I mean, if video game developers can raise 1 million through crowd funding why cant we? I say this because of the recent wikileak emails show how Zuckerberg and the COO were pushing Clinton for an audience to determine ways to censor free speech from Facebook. I for one would be enthralled and eager to pay $5 dollars a month knowing my privacy is protected.

Oh, that's too bad. It's a Linux exclusive. Stay cucked, you losers

Hello I am hacker man. I am using Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB with all telemetry and windows botnet features disabled. (Windows cannot spy on corporations using Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB).

I am using an encrypted dark net VPN, which tunnels through my virtual boxed PfSense + Snort Intrusion Detection System.

The server that runs BSD and PfSense, automatically begins when my computer starts up. So the procedure of connecting to the virtual machine server, so that I can then have internet is automatic.

So I have a corporate-tier firewall AND I have a nologs, encrypted traffic VPN.

No skid is going to hack me.

Redpill me on the technological singularity

Will it happen in our lifetime?
What happens after it?

>The technological singularity (also, simply, the singularity) is the hypothesis that the invention of artificial superintelligence will abruptly trigger runaway technological growth, resulting in unfathomable changes to human civilization. According to this hypothesis, an upgradable intelligent agent (such as a computer running software-based artificial general intelligence) would enter a 'runaway reaction' of self-improvement cycles, with each new and more intelligent generation appearing more and more rapidly, causing an intelligence explosion and resulting in a powerful superintelligence that would, qualitatively, far surpass all human intelligence

Alright pajeets - this shit needs 77 more signatures and the EFF gets $5000.

It's the Internet Privacy Bill of Rights. Nice symbolic shit, but it'd be nicer if NameCheap and RaffleCopter (yes, I know) turned off their website's standard third-party trackers for this.

Their idiocy aside in branding and imagery, the offer to EFF is legit. So sign this shit, Pajeets. Get it to 500 signatures so the EFF gets $5000.

How does SIM Lock works?

I mean those [spoiler]scammers[/spoiler] services in the wild, claim to unlock them by using your IMEI number, so how does this works?


The /g/entoomen's library and the Everything you need to know, provided me no knowledge, so either I have to ask here or go deeper.

I want to make a free as in freedom software as a service substitute for this purposes. What are the theoretical limitations to this.
