OS X is much more polished than windows so you can't really include them both like that
>>
>>57026900
Ubuntu if you don't install any package from the terminal or if you don't use the terminal at all.
>>
>>57026900
Windows 10 isn't polished.

Explain to me again what's so bad about having secure law enforcement-only asymmetric backdoors in our day-to-day civilian encryption, /g/.

Nothing. It's a great idea and given the current political outlook it's only a matter of time until it happens. It should help us fight terrorism and child pornography.

The speakers have a thin plastic casing, causing them to resonate with the sound waves.
That means they will sound like shit.

>>57026700
The subwoofer is most likely the kind of that makes hum instead of thum
also

please no

Zuckerberg is constantly guarded not because he's rich and famous because he's too valuable for the illuminati to lose.

Thats your problem.

Nostalgia mostly.
Otherwise it's all the legacy interfaces that aren't included by default in newer computers that USB emulation can't do it right.

This is why you get a Brother printer.
Bros before hoes
>>
>>57026563
Brother sucks as well, they all do, and they all collude to keep their pricing up.
HP has the absolute best printer interface, and an incredible amount of networking tools.

>>57026598
Brother printers are the only ones that aren't fucking you over on purpose.

OMG SAMSUNG IS DONE.
I don't even own a Samsung device but you guys are delusional to think a country that makes military, medical, and auto technology is going down because a few phones out of hundreds of thousands are blowing up.
This is what /g/ has become

For what they offer, they're overpriced. But that's not to say that the V20 and Pixel aren't overpriced, which they are.

Last thing I bought was an Asus VG248QE. Before that, it was another Asus, just a plain 1080p 24" monitor. Have no clue what I'll buy next. Probably going to be something tech-related, but it'd be cool if it wasn't.
