Yey/nay? Thanks in advance
Well thanks./g/ il buy it anyway i guess. Also the inspiron has ubuntu by default.
>>57024648
Looks like a solid pc. I would sell that hdd and buy a ssd
>>57024547
Should be a slight CPU upgrade (very slight) but a significant GPU upgrade.
Battery life should improve due to newer technologies integrated with the chipset/chip.
All in all, worth it. Agreed with the other people saying get an SSD.

So why isn't 4chan affected? Most of the Internet is down for me, but 4chan is working fine.
seems like just a DNS issue, I got paranoid it was some kind of content filter because I went to load a bunch of porn sites and started testing mainstream big name ones and kept getting DNS query refused etc

Anyone else having issues connecting to certain services?
I can't connect to my buddy's TS, he can't connect to mine. He isn't online on Trillian while I am online. Both of us are on AIM via Trillian though.
Just other random websites not wanting to load while other websites load perfectly fine.
DDoS? Datacenter RIP? IDK!
Yeah the internets been pretty funny for me lately too, I blame all the faggots on here
Comcast is eating shit hard right now. If you're on Comcast or any services you use have routes that go over Comcast networks, then you're probably better off going to sleep and checking back in the morning.
>>57024456
Works for me. Try checking your router/modem logs on packets
Impressive resume anon, however I have one simple question for you : what is a database ?

Do you hide your VPN? What do you use to do so? What are the advantages/disadvantages of hiding your VPN?

Take your VPN and put it somewhere it won't be found

Okay then. Do you use a VPN?
Does overclocking have a significant affect on power consumption?
I've never overclocked before but recently got a gtx 1060 and while looking at benchmarks I noticed people got better fps than I did, even though my other specs were identical or better. Then I noticed that they're overclocking a bit.
So I'm just wondering if I should go ahead and do it, I read that it has a big impact on power consumption, so I'm a little worried(since I only have a 500w psu).
>>57024118

How long before 3D 4K 60fps movies are a thing?
A long time.
That's shits big.
>>57024110
Probably never. Peter Jackson tried the 48fps 3D thing and it failed to gain much interest.
We'll be stuck with 24fps forever.
3D? I thought they already ditched it.
I have been working at a decent university for the past five years teaching mostly post-graduates and I have noticed a stunning development in the past two or three years.
Outside of people from an IT-related background, most don't seem to have any grasp of a hierarchical/nested directory structure. It is an alien concept to them and they need to learn it from scratch.
People in their later 20s and 30s+ understand directory trees just fine, even the biologists. But the youngest of the students (think 22 year olds - I teach in MSc courses) struggle to an extent I haven't seen since I was teaching my grandparents to use a smartphone.
Anyone else notice this trend or did I just get three bad waves of students? What might be causing this?
>>57024087
>hierarchical/nested directory structure
please be more specific, because I cannot believe that there are people in the Science faculty who cannot draw a tree diagram.
Please, at least the mathematicians
>>57024125
Most can understand it once it is explained to them properly, what I'm surprised is that they need it explained at all. And even for the genuinely intelligent ones operating on what is a new concept for them will still be very inefficient.
They struggle with things like knowing where a downloaded file is, are puzzled by the concept of creating more directories other than "My Documents"/"Downloads" (and ESPECIALLY directories in those) and have problems with the concept of a file explorer/command shell being in a specific working directory.
Most commonly and even among those without the above problems, many have problems understanding the idea of file paths - they can click-through the directory structure just fine, but specifying the path as (back)slash delimited text?! - WHOA
>>57024216
This is basic computer literacy, how is it that they've never come across directories in the normal course of using a computer? Even moving files around would require some understanding of how directories can be structured. And using a file browser must necessitate knowing that what is displayed on your screen is "in" the directory. If the majority of users have just the "My Documents" folder with all their files dumped in and with no subidrectories they I have little hope for the coming generation.
I'm not sure if I should be blaming Windows for this in the way I get pissy about users being scared of the terminal. I haven't used Windows since 7 though; surely things haven't got that bad?
