daily reminder to use a computer that you picked up in the trash if you want to have gpu drivers in BSD.
NetBSD-Current has Nouveau.
cards in the 7xx series work fully with 3D.
>>57110491
Oh okay so basically this means that BSD's feature parity is not acceptable at all
>>57110501
What did he mean by this?
I already have an Xbox one controller that isnt the windows one so do I just buy this adapter to make it work for PC?
Micro sd wire and plug it into your computer
>>57110249
I thought the XBone used Bluetooth.
I have an XBox 360 controller that comes with a proprietary USB wireless thingy.
>>57110725
Only the new type s ones have Bluetooth. Otherwise you need that ridiculously big dongle.
Why should I use Duckduckgo /g/?
The bangs make it a pretty useful multi-purpose search engine. It's good as long as you don't actually use duckduckgo itself as your search engine. Also provides a layer of privacy, Google doesn't need to know I searched for big black asses.
>>57110216
You shouldn't as it a completely inferior and unreliable search engine.
>>57110232
All it wants is suggest you websites where you can get better, premium big black asses. Help Google help you.
You have ten seconds to explain why a pure CLI is more efficient than a file manager (Thunar, etc) for moving, copying, and organizing files.

What's "moot"?
>>57110154
>Ads for literal MALWARE
Doesn't matter. You block them anyway.
>Donations
Doesn't matter. Don't give if you don't want to.
>Servers constantly crashing
What's new?
>Selling user data (allegedly)
Only thing that matters
>Shilling passes
Doesn't matter. Block the shilling if you don't want to see it.
>Void and useless boards
Doesn't matter. Don't go to them.
I find it funny that people who buy passes are completely happy with their purchases and move on. But people who despise them bitch and and moan when nothing has changed for them.
You were typing captchas before the pass and you're typing them now.
You could have got a FULL year pass for $15, you could scrape that together in a day or two. But instead you hit post about it all day.
I don't know how many of you do tech support either over the phone or in person for the elderly, as you can imagine, it is hell.
What features would an old-person friendly computer have? I've gotten calls from old ladies not knowing where the power button is on desktop towers before so whatever innovation you have in mind has to be completely retard air-tight.
Here's an idea I had:
Most options in the operating system would be hidden, only accessible by entering an easily-googleable password that all computers share.
Sometimes it makes you wonder if it's okay to just euthanize them all.
>>57110129
Just put one button on it
A big red one that takes them to a pornhub and starts a random video
The only computer that works for a person like that is a sandboxed tablet like environment.
It's the pinicle for UX but it's the death of user freedom and understanding of their machine.

Why? They could've just as easily hire any other kind of developers and avoid paying all those licenses.
Other than convenience (since almost everyone grew up with windows) why do companies prefer .NET?
Usually because Microsoft does a whole bunch of enterprise support and on site training for people that buy licenses.
>>57110693
This.
What you have to understand OP, is that when a business decides what to use, support weighs in A LOT.
Eg. for their laptops you will almost only find Dell, HP and Lenovo as these three manufacturers provide the service a business needs for example fixing a broken laptop/replacing it within 24hrs.
Not to mention consistency. If everybody was working the way they deem best you would spend more time ensuring that things play well together than you save by optimising each individual employees work output.
>>57110095
Because that's what your average developer are taught in school. You are literally told day-1 that C# and other Microshaft utilities are "the future". Microsoft gives you Visual Studio and their tools for free so that the developers become dependent on them.
Since Microsoft products are so ingrained into the business, they can't get out of the loop. Not without teaching their developers new tricks, not without using millions upon millions to change their tools and infrastructure. It's cheaper for them to pay Microsoft those fees rather than changing their staff and software infrastructure as a whole.
If you want Microsoft gone from the business side you'll need to assassinate Nutella, bomb the MS headquarters and shove a virus through Windows Update. Even then the Microsoft empire will still stand and probably shrug off your petty attempts at dethroning them.

When will this meme die?
>>57110055
Man. There are some pretty decent reasons for that.
>>57110055
At least you don't have to deal with bullshit "toolchains" and "transpilers" and "minification" and "module bundlers" and "build systems" and "static assets" and shit on the server side.

What's the problem?
There's no good reason why there shouldn't be a wallet that's SUPER thin, about 3.5" x 6.5", holds at least 12 cards, and doesn't fold along bills, especially since phablets are only slightly larger.
No.
Good.
Reason.
my wallet has a little pocket for coins, amazing how rare they are. I don't know what the fuck you would do otherwise
>>57110068
Throw them away like the trash they are
Also:
>using cash
>>57110068
The only thing you should ever need physical currency for is buying weed, and dealers don't want your fucking pennies.
So suddenly my second card shows as disabled, and launching games with crossfire settings on for them doesn't start it up either (checking MSI afterburner for usage).
What's going on? Is this something with the new drivers?
Also can't find any crossfire settings in the additional radeon settings or anywhere really besides game profiles.
>crossfire
>amd

It's that newest kernel m8 4.7.0 is no good, revert back to 4.4.0
Did I break my computer forever by trying to install window 7 on a computer with window 8.1?
>>57109886
I don't know, did you?
>>57109898
I feel like I did. It has a black screen when I log into it. My dad is going to kill me please help :(
>>57109909
He was going to kill you anyways. Might as well order an exit kit and save him the trouble.

50k is awful. CS grads get six figures from top companies.

I want to pick up an MSP430 launchpad on a whim but I have no idea which one to get or where. I'm overwhelmed with the choices. Somebody help me out.
I have experience with AVR ATmega32 and that's just about it.
No specific applications in mind. I do not have a problem to be solved, I just felt like dicking around with another MCU for funsies.
>>57109837
Get ESP8266.
It's the new hotness with Wi-Fi baked in for under $9.
>>57109837
I've had a good time with the F5529. All of them are fairly similar in my experience. I've done some simple automation with it and it's been great.
Hi I'm back.
After browsing TI's website for a bit I ended up ordering this.
https://store.ti.com/LAUNCHXL-F28027-C2000-Piccolo-LaunchPad-P3088.aspx
If this turns out to be a bust, well, there are much worse things I've blown $17 on.
Is anyone using a regular flat-screen LCD TV as a monitor? There's a guy I know who's selling a 32" Samsung TV for cheap because he's moving and I'm thinking about using it as a monitor. It has HDMI and VGA input.
I have no use for the TV since I don't watch it but how well does a TV work as a monitor?
if you intend on using it for more competitive games fast paced games then the input lag will be a little much just for normal browsing and youtube it will be just fine
I'm currently using a 32" Sony TV on my main rig, HDMI. I constantly play competitive games such as DotA and CS:GO, haven't had any problems and I play at a rather high MMR in both.
>>57109839
i think it mainly just depends on the tv i have a friend that does that just fine but my old 21 inch flatscreen lagged like a bitch
