/g/ What do you really use Linux for as a daily drive? Do you play games? Just browse the web? Develop some sort of software?
What makes you use it over Windows or OS X? I've been using Linux for years and deep down I want to use it but if I use Windows I have less work to do to get something running and the software will perform better. I don't have to google to fix problems. But I like to run it on secondary machines in my house like my laptop.
This isn't a troll thread, it's a genuine thread.
>been using it for years
If that were true I doubt you would be making this thread asking this question.

I have been. The first time I used it was around 2010 or so. I ordered an Ubuntu CD when it used to be free and installed it on my computer.
What messenger is your daily driver? As in, is there a messenger that's so central to your life you couldn't live without it? And, expanding on the subject, is it objectively good or are you stuck with it because it was a race winner and all your friends use it, making moving to another one impossible?
The latter is my case sadly, all my friends use WhatsApp, which isn't even that bad, weren't it for the fact that it's too much of a police messenger to me, if you want to hide from a person you wish not to interact with for some time, WhatsApp makes that much impossible, with online status and other such hellish stuff.
On the other hand I've grown fond of using Line and I got a friend to try it out.
First off you're free from online notification, so if you want to ignore someone you're good. Moreover it gets something that most messengers fuck up: uploading pictures in the order you dictate in the file pick screen.
Sprinkle over it some fast servers and anime stuff such as themes and stickers and you've got yourself the best messenger. Too bad nobody uses it outside Japan.
Slack
It's not tethered to a SIM like Whatsapp (which I use with normie friends fyi), but it's a lot more efficient, better optimized, file sharing is easier, fucking around with bots. The one downside is that it's e-mail invite only, opposed to Discord's linking system, so my internet weeb friends tend not to feel like going through all that stress to make an undoxable email, but it's still a lot better than most messaging clients today imo.
I'm in Indonesia and I use both LINE and Whatsapp, with LINE for personal communications. I'm not gonna lie the stickers are kawaii as fuck and the voice call, video call, and group call features are useful. Even though a lot of people have iPhones here, no one and I mean absolutely no one uses iMessage.
Telegram is pretty useful.

You can salvage remainder parts to get one or more working laptops. From there its either you want to keep it for personal use or donate it to charity.

UEFI IS A PIECE OF SHIT
Can someone explain to me exactly what UEFI is and why it's so important?
UEFI and BIOS caused the most problems in my arch and gentoo installs.
>>56911650
UEFI is the awful replacement of the awful BIOS. Since UEFI written in C, it's full of (un)intentional vulnerabilities for everyone to exploit.
>>56911712
What is the BIOS written in?
So i have both the GIGABYTE GTX 970 GV-N970G1 4GD GAMING OC and the SAPPHIRE TRI-X OC Radeon R9 290X sitting on my desk right now, and i can't decide which i want to put in, which one is better?

Is this the most underrated perfect phone?
>5.5 inch, 2560x1440 (543 PPI)
>Scratch resistant glass
>Quad Core Snapdragon 820
>4gb RAM
>Adreno 530
>21 mp camera
>Fingerprint sensor
>Quick charge 3.0
And especially, a headphone jack
The only thing I'm worried about is the battery, only 3000mah.

No it's not all that
The HTC 10 is available unlocked in Carbon Gray, Glacier Silver, and Topaz Gold. It’ll be available in Camellia Red in “early October”, but it’s unclear if that model will be available before HTC’s sale ends. The HTC 10 is also available in T-Mobile, Verizon, and Sprint-specific versions.
As a refresher, the HTC 10’s feature set includes a 5.2-inch 2560x1440 Super LCD 5 screen, 12-megapixel camera with laser autofocus and optical image stabilization, 4GB of RAM, a Snapdragon 820 processor, 32GB of storage, a microSD slot, a fingerprint reader, and a 3,000mAh battery that charges over USB Type-C.
In October it will drop by $150 to entice holiday sales.
Not bad value if you ask me.
Just paid $800 for my s6 edge
After discount, yes. Regular price? No.

Ya it's roughly $822 CDN right now. My lg g5 has a removable battery and it was $800 CDN. This would be really good value after $150 discount.
