I copy files to an external HDD, then burn the more important files to optical media in case my external drive fails at some point.

>cloud

I wouldn't trust any third parties with my data.

I use a cloud backup service for my media. I have a RAID1 array in my PC for doubling up files. Any sensitive fies get backed up to a couple flash drives and are stored away.

iPhone SE is the only choice

>>57193957
It's still agood phone but it's forever stuck on 6.0.1, which isn't the end of the world but it's also not the best.

I'm posting from it now. If you get him one get a magnetic charging cable and a magnetic attachment for the USB cable so he doesn't wear out the gasket on the flaps.

>>57193979
Yeah, probably the SE if he were to spend $400+

Get the comp tias done first. Cisco tests require a lot of study time, and they assume you already have a pretty good base knowledge,

Comp tias are easy, can be studied for quickly, and are a decent introduction to the concepts.

Get them all you nigger.

First do CompTIA then Cisco.

CCENT and Net+ are basically the same.

they ARE dumber.
We had to actually put in some effort to use out devices, they don't.

consumer accessibility and interactivity. No one has to fix things up anymore. No one has to figure out how things work, for the father solves the problem either himself or by paying someone else.

first adopters are usually enthusiasts, then normies eventually get access to it

>first cars, had to know how they worked, or else you couldn't use it
>now, cars can run thousands of miles without any maintenance

>first computers, required knowledge of their workings, and very high cost of ownership meant only enthusiasts could obtain them
>now, easy and cheap as shit

Not dead, but it will be just a gimmick for a long time. VR will only stop being a meme once we develop direct neural interfaces.

Cost didn't kill VR.
Impracticality and ending support killed VR.
Gamers want to sit down and relax, playing a game. Anything else is a gimmick

The fact that the simple act of plugging in an Oculus DK1 right now will literally brick your Windows 10 install beyond repair kinda says a lot about the future of VR

What the fuck? How?

>G-Sync

god this is one persistent meme, so long-lived that i almost respect it

Well you have your choice of two monitors; one from Asus, one from Acer.

Both of them use the same exact panel. Go on, run along now.

1. Add bookmarks to the bookmarks menu.
2. If there are several bookmarks that share a topic (e.g. "Music", "Programming", etc) or format (e.g. "Wiki", for all those pesky interesting wikis that like to clutter the menu), group them into folders.
3. Sort alphabetically.

I don't, and haven't for like ten years now. I just have a really autistic memory of about when I accessed a site, so know where it is relatively on my (rather long) list

I like Bleach and Naruto

At Comcast, probably enough to be very annoying. Anywhere else, I'm sure you're fine.
Idea because I hate Comcast employees : You could let him use your credit card number to buy a few things online and let him send them to his house, pretend you don't know him, then call your bank and bitch about the weird charges. In the US, that's enough to thoroughly keep him from doing you harm, and his position at your ISP could make it reasonable that he'd have access to your credit card information.

You shouldn't do that though. That'd be illegal and therefore immoral.

>>57193611
He can see the account holders last 4 of the SSN. He can see what speeds you are getting and what you are paying for. He can see when your contract expires. He can see your Video On Demand purchase history. He can see your modems mac model. Of its Comcast leaders he can see what devices are connected. Beyond that. Not much else.
Your browsing history is safe.

Yes.
I don't want to have 2 DEs installed and I don't like uninstalling.
Once something is installed, the distro is forever tainted by it, only proper way to remove it is reinstall.

>>57193593
yes, if for no better reason than the fact that if you just install your de of choice you get a bunch of shitty defaults and it can be a headache to get it usable

>>57193527
do you want to be a fucking apple genius?

also if you don't have the social skills why the fuck are you doing retail

>>57193570
There are very little alternatives

>>57193570
I want to learn how to fix Apple products and such. I didn't apply to be a sales floor grunt who greets and schemes snobby girls and old wealthy doctors.

I do have the social skills I believe, but as I stated, I cannot do 1 on 1s with much more confident, attractive people that are clearly much better off than me in life. I feel like a slave. It's one of the reasons why I don't talk to a lot of customers in my current retail job in an upscale area.

I applied for the job because I have an interest in learning, progressing, and hopefully finding a career that I actually enjoy.

God bless idiots with cash. Life would be hard without them.

So people can't own/distribute outdated versions of the manual?

>>57193481
Surely having the manual be tied to the version you have would make more sense. Besides, all it takes is a little version number header.

>>57193438
I agree.

Give it back, De'Linquent.

Give it back Tyrone.
